"All this he saw, for one moment breathless and intense, vivid on the morning sky; and still, as he looked, he lived; and still, as he lived, he wondered."

― Kenneth Grahame, The Wind in the Willows

Oggi…

…devo correre come una disperata. Devo:

  1. andare in università ad assistere a degli esami;
  2. andare in fumetteria a prendere Thor sperando che sia l’ultimo;
  3. terminare le tavole del lotto due;
  4. iniziare il modellino del lotto due;
  5. lavorare sulle tavole del lotto tre;
  6. lavorare sulla lettura critica per questa roba;
  7. prenotare un paio di esami;
  8. fare ancora la coda allo sportello per il riconoscimento dei crediti lavorativi.

Ah, devo anche fare colazione… credo che inizierò da quella. Con una bella spremuta d’arancia! ;-p

Spooktober 2026 – That’s a wrap!

…and that’s a wrap! Eighteen classic stories, if my math is correct, 29 posts, and the candle’s waning. It’s almost time. Are you all set up? Who are you celebrating with, and what are you dressed up as? Whether it’s true crime or contemporary politicians

Bulgakov’s The Fatal Eggs

Mikhail Bulgakov (Kyiv, 1891–1940) was a novelist, playwright, and former physician, whom I’m sure you know for The Master and Margarita, published posthumously. His work blends sharp satire, fantasy, grotesque comedy, and moral seriousness, often targeting Soviet bureaucracy and ideological hypocrisy, but I had no

    Dedico una terzina pseudo-dantesca a codesto tuo giovenil eroico furore:

    Quando il sole si leva la mattina,

    che tu sia tigre o gazzella sbarbina,

    l’obbligo è sempre far ‘na corsettina!

    Giusto, Brian e, come diceva Aldov l’importante è che se muori avvisi prima. Comunque sì, si fuma roba buona. Almeno a giudicare dalle facce e dalla roba che mettono in vetrina ogni tanto. Un giorno dovrò fare delle foto.

    Njord, i casi sono due: o hai la glicemia davvero alta (ma sull’orlo del collasso) o sei Rocky3. In entrambi i casi suggerisco un bel controllino…
