Against our generation

If in Vitoria our generation was matched by something, it was a mismatch. The tribe he belonged to was indifferent, (almost) we were all alcoholics or other drug addicts. Pijos de Cercas Bajasen, Alternative Zapanes, Traditional Sumps and fights, heavys in the area of Santo Domingo and Zapa, marihuanas in Parnaso, machineries in Calle Interior, Spanish Pop in Pinton and Nueva Calle, chiefs in Aldapa and in San Prudencio...

Ours is the generation that now has a cane of command, perhaps due to amnesia, after so many righteous men. Because we are the generation in which we have lived the longest “youth” in history, which neither the former nor the descendants will be able to match. We started with about thirteen years and extended it for twenty years:

To us, those of us who knew the bars in order to spend the night and until dawn, (the boys) those who urinated on the street or on a portal and threw the veal, to the back of the house those who took and typed the copies of the newspapers, those who were breaking the street furniture and the bottles. Or what we saw normally.

First we had to get out of the whirlwind of nights. For example, you become a parent. So, many (especially boys) start in the field of the race, as before with drugs, to flee now from the new daily routine.

And when we eat the crew we once do, we sit around the table, we remove the kiss and we start from the snack to the last cube, we start to say that the young people of today are selfish and that until the juerga ends there is nothing to say against COVID-19. It doesn't matter if we're in the temperament of a bar and the young people are bottled in the plaza or on the mountain. Then, we have brought to the hinges bullying hater-“bands”-cine-rave-botilo-smartphone... The inventions of today's young people!

The phrases that start “today’s young people,” like the ones that start “the people,” magically pull us out of the “us” equation. People as if they were all but us, and young people today, instead of growing up in our homes, as if they had brought them from Mars: perhaps in the family (or, family!) Because internal communication has always been hypocrisy and incommunication.

In the concert of La Polla, in society, in the cubateo we are ex-left ever closer to the right-wing liberals. The guava copies of our parents, super protectors of our children and enemies of the young.

We did the overnight stays of Christ and the next day we are this old newspaper.

When we are unable to

When you work with older people or people with physical and neural diversity, you realize that the idea of competition in our society limits us a lot as a species. That is, our system puts you in value by doing things specifically, and what it doesn't do is incapable of the... [+]


Hysterical materialism
I wanted to write

I wanted to write for the Christmas lights and claim to become an annual tradition in this time of street lighting, a welcoming, joyful and joyful public space from the point of view of the class. But, of course, also warm public spaces where some young people can be warming up... [+]

Hayedos

He forgives the oak trees, oak trees, oaks, herons, strawberries, dressings, chestnuts, birch, gorostidias, chamomiles, pine trees and all the societies of the trees, but today the hayedo has a date on the occasion of the celebrations of the winter border.

It is easier for me... [+]


Moving us?

Euskaraldia comes back. Apparently, it will be in the spring of next year. They have already presented it and the truth is that it has surprised me; not Euskaraldia himself, but his motto: We'll do it by moving around.

The first time I have read or heard it, the title of the... [+]


The old neoliberal budgets of the new government
In the same vein is the policy of the new Basque Government. The words yes, but the actions are not clear in the budget presented by the Pradales government.

Laziness

I do not know if you also have the same perception – I recognise this: here I have started to write in a scientific way. I am referring to the natural extension of the word laziness. I hear more and more in the corners of Hego Euskal Herria: Basque, Spanish and, of course,... [+]

Smile, chew and silence

Many at Christmas feel more lazy than illusion when we think about meals and family gatherings. But we anticipate that it is not food that makes us feel collectively uncomfortable, but the normativity that defines the traditional family. Moreover, we would dare to say that the... [+]

'Humiliadero' of the RGI

I have always found the way in Spanish to the carriages that can be found here and there: humiliating. Isn't it a pretty light, white name or doesn't it have any connotation? After all, everything that was going on there had to be humiliated. It is known that for the god of... [+]


End of Syrian Arab Republic

The end of the Syrian Arab Republic has caused great surprise at the way in which it has taken place: fast and almost without resistance. However, it is not so strange when we consider that the country was destroyed, impoverished and trodden. Most Syrians have long been... [+]


Post-oasis

Novelty is usually one of the most heard words associated with the Durango Fair. The novelty is there, and here's the novelty. However, in some cases it is sufficient to give a different aspect to the previous one to paste that label. The CDs and remastered reeditions with... [+]


A manifesto of Basque Day

The Basque country has a very large water flow in the shortage. Every local drop curls and revives our culture. Offer a sea of water to that thirst. Although the Basque Country has come from a deep and dark well, we have all drawn our sample of salt water and turned it into a... [+]


Road to France and Spain

In mid-November, through the ARGIA ephemeris, I recalled that 25 years ago I gave up playing in the Spanish team. This trip has given me the opportunity to look back and reflect.

I've seen international sports competitions in the form of inter-country sports wars, an unarmed... [+]

Pornography on young people

Young people start consuming pornography before, as porn is their only sex education. How on earth have we come here?

Today, it has to be acknowledged that thanks to the Internet it is much easier to see pornography. Unfortunately, through a click, the 7-9 year-old boy comes to... [+]
