October
Few bees, little honey in honeycombs. Scarce coral reefs under the sea and mountain glaciers, hayedos and robledales. Scarcity of dense forests, progressive decline of green lung forests. Shortage of undrained land; about to dry. Low moss. Shortage of lagoons, lakes and rivers. Ice scarcity, drinking water. Few seeds, few minerals. Wheat, low cocoa. Coltan, copper, coal, lithium, nickel, oil, scarce natural gas. Blue whales, polar bears, koalas, turtles, penguins, little wolves. Few butterflies (in childhood memories they always appear much more than now).
Scarcity of small shops in the village. Low season, low native. Fewer and fewer vegetable gardens. Hope of eternal life, but low birth. Scarcity of decent employment contracts, scarcity of social aid, scarcity of care networks, lack of pensions. Poor rational rental. Little youth emancipation. Lack of real conciliation possibilities. Women in the scarce decision-making spaces. Scarcity of handles for body builders. Few promises of the future for researchers. For those who come from outside there are few hostels, papers and respect, always depending on the color of skin and eyes and hair. Scarcity of places in nursing homes; lack of free beds in hospitals. Few doctors, answering machine to the phone's fire that sounds and sounds all morning in the local health center. Poor patience, long waiting lists, endless waiting lists. At least everything that remains public by name.
Human rights shortage. Little freedom of expression. Poor justice. Empathy, solidarity, precariousness. Lack of self-criticism, awareness, concern. Few leaps from theory to practice. Few real alternatives, and those that exist, invisible. Imagination, creativity, little illusion. Courage, strength, unwillingness to undertake. Laughter is scarce.
Hours of poor sleep. Prolonged laying times on the couch are scarce. Insufficient leisure time. Little time for the kitchen. Little sexual time. Limited reading time. Not long. Scarce body. Insufficient breathing.
“Discomfort is nourished by the well-being of the few.”
In the book Landura by José Luis Otamendi recently stood out with a pencil and I have with me the phrase since then. The times of prosperity will end. Now the basic is scarce and urgent.

There are those who, being a brilliant brain, with definitions of "little detail," are experts in transforming and transforming the same thing, in other words. It was yours and it has been a project in eternum that has been repeated for decades. This was one of the main reasons to... [+]
On 26 December, during an air strike, the Israeli Army killed five Palestinian journalists trying to reach the city. They killed 130 Palestinian journalists. This news has reminded me of a couple of things, the first, the persecution of true journalists in any part of the world,... [+]
In recent months I have had to work in a number of institutes and, at some point, I have had to talk to the students about the possibilities offered by the labour market. The typology of the students is varied and in the same city varies a lot from one neighborhood to another,... [+]
The girl who appears in the center of photography, which can hardly be considered historical, is writing a list of adjectives: I, you, he, we, you, they. Looking down, I couldn't see what his gaze looked like.
Insensitive to the work of the photographer, you, slowly and... [+]
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... [+]
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... [+]

It is easier for me... [+]
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... [+]
When the heteropatriarchal capitalist colonial system is questioned and fought, it attacks mercilessly. Using all the tools at your disposal to strengthen, strengthen and consolidate institutional power, media, justice, language, culture, violence...

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,... [+]
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... [+]
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... [+]
