@Nikosmoraitis Και δικός μου δάσκαλος! Μου έμαθε τι σημαίνει έκθεση! Και ποίηση! Και μετά το «Χρονικό» ένας χείμαρρος τραγουδιών που δένουν την γλώσσα με την ιστορία, τον Όμηρο, τον Αισχύλο, τον Σολωμό. «Κατέβηκεν ο γίγαντας μ´ ένα δαδί στο χέρι, έριξε φώτα στις σπηλιές και χάρηκε τ´ ασκέρι»..

@yanisvaroufakis @yanisvaroufakis Δεν περιμένουμε το indictment πρώτα; Είναι όλα τα 34 (όπως λένε) πλημμελήματα; BTW, τον Αλ Καπόνε τον πιάσανε γιατί δεν πλήρωσε φόρους και όχι για ανθρωποκτονίες και τα άλλα του εγκλήματα.

Yesterday was my last day at Twitter: the entire Human Rights team has been cut from the company.

I am enormously proud of the work we did to implement the UN Guiding Principles on Business & Human Rights, to protect those at-risk in global conflicts & crises including Ethiopia,

@itsbethbooker Best wishes to your mom and you, Beth @itsbethbooker. And thanks for your post. Stories like yours give the true human dimension of the risk all of us living close to the Gulf face and will continue to do. #Hurricane

#HurricaneIan's Florida arrival is a worst-case clash between an explosive, heat-amped storm and communities that grew explosively in a hurricane hiatus. https://t.co/pnyb3jFZaL 1/

The speed of deglaciation in the Alps is hard to accept: within just two months, a mountain pass at Les Diablerets @Glacier_3000, Western Switzerland, ice-covered for several thousand years, became ice-free.
The summer of 2022 has shifted the realities for Alpine #glaciers...

About time... 👍@NatlParkService 👏

Snow Dome, Alberta, CA on June 30, 2022. I wonder how long before these majestic glaciers also collapse...
😢

[K. Zygourakis @kyzygo]

Oh dear god! The glaciers are not receding anymore. The Marmolada collapse that killed 7 was only a few days ago... Tipping point for glaciers?

Kirghizistan : Un glacier s'est détaché à proximité des gorges de Juuku.

Des touristes ont commencé à filmer ce qui se passait avant d'être atteints par l'avalanche.

Selon les médias, 2 personnes auraient été hospitalisées pour des blessures & des ecchymoses.
