Flashes and fantasies

I don't know if Argia is the right forum to make my (almost) erotic fantasy known. If not, forgive. Perhaps I have seen too many (American) films and therefore I have a mystified image of professionals who call themselves advertising creatives. It's possible. What happens is that I, too, would like to participate in such a crazy process, on behalf of another company, to design a campaign or to invent an attractive motto.

In fact, above all, the two best-known sports teams in my city are the companies: Alavés and Baskonia. Both are grouped into a single undertaking: Baskonia-Alavés Group. In the case of basketball, the main sponsor is Kirolbet, while in the case of football it is Betway. Wagering houses appear on the T-shirts of the house groups that are supposed to be in public service. Wages on bitches. Tinkle.

Under the slogan Get ready to shine, the organizers have chosen this year the campaign of the Baskonia partners. I must have thought it ridiculous. And also an epic fiction disguised as a sport. They will not deny me, therefore: (very) the creatives are good when they talk about our fantasies.

Living in multilingualism: minority languages strengthen us

September 26 is European Day of Languages, which should be an important day for vasco-speakers. We have a lot to celebrate, the same thing we have to denounce many others. But I have decided to talk about what we have to celebrate today and to claim the strength that this... [+]


Tudela sludges, a clear example of what should not be done

August is the holiday month for many people, including those who rule. And yet it is common to take advantage of the month of August to deal with some issues without much noise, albeit of great importance.

This is what is happening with the project to centralize sludge... [+]

How many?

"How many are you going to do in Basque in 2075? ". The article just published by Kike Amonarriz in the press has an overwhelming title. Before in Euskal Herria, a question of this kind has been asked in Catalonia. Joan M. The sociolinguistionist Tolosarra awake wanted to share... [+]


Undertake and continue

Euskaltzaindia's motto is "ekin eta jarrai" ("ekin eta jarrai"), the outlawing of Euskaltzaindia. I don't know why the Academy wasn't outlawed, all three words appeared on its logo. The allegations have been made with less - and (those of one age remember the cassette of The Mondragon... [+]


Why be ashamed?

Are we running out of shame? This is the diagnosis of several authors today. Is there no longer a look that can embarrass us? Another thing that Jean-Paul Sartre described in 1943 around shame is that on the other side of the lock, with the eye stuck in the key slot, a person is... [+]

Deleting toponyms

The problem of the afrancession of the names of the places of Euskal Herria is not only due to the lack of consideration of the language in the signaling panels, but also to the execution of a decision on the domiciliation that was taken a few years ago.

Ultimately, the... [+]


The risks of Salami's tactic

Thank you

On this rainy Sunday, we are responsible for the fate of people living in disquiet at the various conflicts that exist in the world. By far, it seems that we cannot be freed from the hands of many rulers acting towards power. Many human beings live in the world with the... [+]

Hysterical materialism
They can't learn Basque

She is a mother of Peru and could not start learning Euskera from scratch, as we have read in the newspapers (it was a lie): here perhaps yes, because here the city council guarantees that right (Hernani). If he comes to me at the end of the course (as they have come to me),... [+]

Autumn does not envy spring

If we were to ask which of the four concerts they love most is that of the “four seasons” of Vivaldi, the answers would give them on an equal footing, half the spring and the other half the fall. However, the balance would be made in favour of spring, perhaps because it was... [+]

(1978-2024)

Summer has taken its steps and the festive atmosphere has weakened. We are now faced with the needs that we have left behind and, once again, the right reasons must be given to Basque society.
