This map highlights the 43% of Earth's surface where snow has fallen — or may have fallen — at some point since 1940.
It may surprise you!
One particularly fascinating snow pixel: Papua New Guinea's 14,793-foot Mount Wilhelm, just 5° south of the equator.
Na universidade pública, eu conheci tanto as pessoas MAIS POBRES, quanto as pessoas MAIS RICAS que eu já vi na vida! Incrível isso!
Um dia, nós fomos fazer trabalho voluntário NUMA FAVELA e, no dia seguinte, eu falei para um colega:
"Nossa, seu pai foi levar a gente lá ontem...
Your brain deletes most of your ordinary days. It keeps almost every minute of a night alone in a foreign city. What's happening there is actually one of the more beautiful things about how your nervous system works.
Your brain is a prediction machine. When it can predict everything, like your commute, your kitchen, your same six streets, it stops recording. That's why whole months at home just vanish. But put yourself somewhere it can't predict anything and the system flips. Every sign, every smell, every crosswalk registers as new information. Dopamine tags all of it as worth keeping. This is why one week abroad feels longer in memory than a month at home. Your brain literally kept more of it.
The second thing happening is quieter. At home, some part of you is always tracking how you're being perceived. Your boss, your friends, the people who knew you at 22. In a city where nobody knows your name, that entire system goes offline.
And when it goes offline, the bandwidth doesn't disappear. It gets redirected inward.
That's the "realizing how far you've come" part. Your brain is finally recording again, the self-monitoring is off, and you're far enough away from your life to see the whole shape of it at once.
You spend years too close to your own life to see it. Then one night you're crossing a street on the other side of the world, and you finally have enough distance to look.
Whenever someone tells me they're expecting their first baby and they're nervous, I tell them the following: 'Oh my goodness, that's wonderful. I am so happy for you. Listen, of course you're nervous but here's the deal: you're ready for all the bad stuff. You've been very tired before. You've been in pain before. You've been worried about money before. You've felt like an incapable moron before. So you'll be fine with the difficult parts! You're already a pro. What you're NOT ready for is the wonderful parts. NOTHING can prepare you for how amazing this will be. There is no practice for that.

Shakira destaca o Brasil ao falar que latinidade vai muito além de hispanidade:
"A hispanidade é linda, mas fica pequena diante de tudo o que somos. O espanhol é latino; o português, o italiano e o francês também. E todos os latino-americanos somos latinos. O Brasil, o maior país da América Latina, não fala espanhol, fala português. A hispanidade não consegue abraçá-lo; a latinidade, sim.
Somos uma nação sem fronteiras que vem sendo construída há cinco séculos: a mistura de África, América e o Sul da Europa. Não julgo, com o olhar de hoje, os seres humanos de quinhentos anos atrás; fico com aquilo que somos: uma fusão que é a nossa riqueza". (Shakira para o El País)
E é uma das coisas mais poéticas que a gente faz. imagina não demonstrar pra alguém que você gosta tanto de sua presença ao ponto de querer estar próximo até o último segundo do encontro
