Today, october 4th, 2021, something very peculiar happened; three online social networks - WhatsApp, Facebook and Instagram - "collapsed". The first thing I tried to check was my profile here on DeviantArt, and as we can see, is all OK. Same in my Twitter' profile. Other networks and plataforms are OK, too. No problem on Webtoon. PornHub is working as usual; even Pinterest is OK. At the same time, newspapers speak of yet another financial scandal involving offshore operators, and among the many rich people involved, we have the infamous Brazilian minister of economy and the president of the Central Bank of Brazil. Of course, it's just an inconsequential hunch of mine, but I wouldn't be surprised if Mark Zuckerberg, a billionaire himself, wasn't trying to save the ass of his peers, financial speculators. Anyway, the good old DeviantArt is still standing, and I confirm my fondness for this social network. I need to enhance my presence here. With more art. Thank you, Angelo. I pledge

Lendo "A doutrina do choque", de Naomi Klein (Nova Fronteira, 2008), torna-se absurdamente óbvio o motivo pelo qual o Bolsonaro se recusou a aceitar as ofertas de vacina da Pfizer e de outros laboratórios no ano passado. A "doutrina do choque" enunciada por Milton Friedman, o professor do Paulo Guedes na Universidade de Chicago, prescreve a ocorrência de uma grande catástrofe para colocar a população de um país em choque, e torná-la incapaz de reagir diante de uma ataque especulativo e privatista diante das instituições e do patrimônio econômico do país. Os americanos experimentaram esse procedimento com sucesso duas vezes em seu próprio território, - no 11 de setembro de 2001, e na Nova Orleans devastada pelo furacão Katrina em 2005 - antes de aplicá-lo em outros lugares, especialmente no Iraque. Outros ocasiões exemplificam a aplicação da "doutrina de choque", como o golpe militar de 11 de setembro de 1973 no Chile (inclusive, Milton Friedman foi conselheiro econômico do governo de

Checking my DeviantArt' favorites list, I found that I have over 3000 favorites. That's insane!
Most of these favorites are fine art that made me think I could learn something from them, others are artworks from people I admire, for their technical ability or the themes they chose. Anyway, I left this huge collection accumulate inordinately, and now I can't see the whole collection anymore.
It's a shame for a library science student, a librarian apprentice; so now I'm trying to organize my favorites' collection into specific folders, hoping to be able to see everything again.
But there are more than three thousand f...ing favorites! That's i
