List of expectations

He meets two friends who form the couple, starts talking to them, and one of them, mixed, says a hope list instead of a waiting list. Your partner realizes, but it conceals good. The author of the story is learning Basque and is awaiting the results of the recent study. I have later learned that he has not passed the test and that he is rather desperate.

We say goodbye and I remember the lapsus: “A good set of words to talk about Osakidetza’s waiting lists; waiting for the appointment, to be called once,” I thought of myself. And then it strikes me that, as it couldn't be otherwise, Twitter can be a success, and maybe it can be viralized, to my modest extent. Or, what the hell, why not write the ARGIA column itself on this topic.

But I'd stay with humor on Twitter, and that Osakidetza's accounts are not to go laminar and crack, to fall with a scarce joke. The moment I write, I have a slightly reddened eye. In the phone call, the nurse has made a kind of diagnosis without seeing me straight ahead. But I've gone to the pharmacy for the recommended eye drops, and the pharmacist has made a completely different diagnosis, looking at my eye closely. In my next phone call with the nurse, it seemed to me that I had to put some pressure to get a face-to-face consultation with the doctor. Who benefits from social networking?

It says a list of mixed expectations instead of a waiting list. The author of the talk is learning Basque and is awaiting the results of the recent study

I've made progress with Plan B, of course, and now that I'm quite ahead with the column, I've realized that maybe my friend didn't tell the hope list, but the hope room, instead of the waiting room, of course. And if that were the case, which I'm not sure, I would find it even better to play words, it could have other substantial senses. But where does this lead me?

In the end, I thought that language can be very productive for the development of thought, but then I saw the other side of the coin: what can be surface, if not for much more. And moving on to myself, I have not come to the conclusion that the limits of my world are the limits of my language, as Wittgenstein said, but that my thinking – or, in my case, the chaos of loose ideas – is partly conditioned by the occurrences derived from an eccentric game of words. Sometimes almost to the limit.

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 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... [+]
