Basically, Pedro Sánchez said he promises the full recognition of Palestine as a sovereign state, and he also said that is enough of bloody massacres ...

We don't have Aunt Jemima nor Uncle Ben because we are orphans. Instead, our brands use two unknown women harvesting rice in the fields of the Mediter...

Yeah, Shiva is called The Destroyer. But if I am not wrong, Shiva is one of the main principal deities of Hinduism, and she creates the universe. The ...

I agree. Translations could be a handicap, often. The small written note that I referred to previously also contains a brief suggestion to other Casar...

The Invention of Morel is on the shelf of my parents house, but I decided to pick The Dream of Heroes instead! Nice to know you liked it. I will put i...

A destructive God? Interesting, because most deities are basically otherwise. People believe in God because it creates life and things.
September 18, 2024 at 07:25
The Dream of Heroes by Adolfo Bioy Casares. Casares was a good friend of Borges, and I discovered him thanks to the latter. My book has a cute little ...

Yes, when I was in university, Dr. Phil was a main subject of memes and jokes. Well, the American students introduced us to him on campus. Wasn't he t...

¡Ah! Ya te entiendo, ahora he pillado tu ejemplo mejor. :sweat: Lo peor de todo es que la pregunta en el examen no había contexto ni nada. En fin, a v...

Dr. Phil is definitely welcome here; at least he exists, unlike deities like God. I hope Dr. Phil had a fantastic time in Mallorca or Almería. I'll le...

Hmm... Perhaps that anyone sees North Korea as an opportunity rather than a punishment. Regarding killers and abusers, we can't really never know. @"B...

I agree. Good points and argumentation, ENOAH. :up:
September 16, 2024 at 06:45
Again, (as I asked yesterday) is that even doable or possible at all?
September 16, 2024 at 05:32
No, no, prometo que de verdad fue una pregunta de examen de selectividad. Ésta es la clase de examen que hacemos antes de entrar a la universidad. Por...
September 16, 2024 at 04:30
True, I agree. It's interesting to imagine that those people ("believers") believe that "God exists" is also a fact in our minds since they can't acce...
September 15, 2024 at 06:03
Good point. I always thought proving the existence of God was a waste of time because atheists will always deny it and believers will always give God'...

We have ended up in a world where it's difficult to look to one country as a role model for human rights, transparency, and corruption prevention. Yes...

Yes, poor labour conditions and pollution are basically nonexistent in the Western world. These issues only exist in China... :roll:

I forgot to mention it, but thank you mate for bringing it to the table. Basically, the majority of the clothing comes from East Asia!
September 13, 2024 at 14:15
I understand. The eternal rivalry between the two superpowers of the world. When you live in a normal/non-important country like mine, it is important...
September 13, 2024 at 14:13
Yes, I would buy a Chinese car and other products such as mobile phones or other devices. What is the big issue regarding Chinese products? I just don...

Yes, Gloria Fuertes' poems. She is my favourite poet. She mainly wrote children's poetry, but some poems were more deep and 'for adults'. I also read ...
September 12, 2024 at 17:12
Well, I guess I can only answer you properly if I approach the topic of translation on different scales: reading in my native language is always bette...

Cello has an indescribable tone. That short but intense piece proves it. Thanks for sharing it with us. I enjoyed listening to it while on my way to t...

I had some difficulties reading Borges as well. It is remarkable his vast knowledge on almost everything. However, I feel he expressed himself in a ma...

Good point, ssu. Honestly, when I have exchanges on aesthetics here in TPF, I don't really expect an answer with facts but to read different perspecti...

I tend to write poetry every day, but my poems are short and ambiguous, very similar to haiku. I'm even still writing haiku. I try to express melancho...

Hola. :smile: Thanks, Amity. I really enjoy reading stuff like this. I wonder now if' stuff' is a bad word to express or refer to something. I am real...
September 09, 2024 at 09:54
Yes. I am currently reading Borges, and he dedicated a chapter for reviewing 'kennings'. A 'kenning' is an old poem that is characterised for includin...

Fictions by Jorge Luis Borges. I am enjoying Borges' works. I don't understand why it took me too long to start reading him. Maybe he just popped up i...

Wait... Am I the only one who thinks this topic is sneakily becoming The Shoutbox 2.0?
September 07, 2024 at 09:18
I obviously trust that you were behaving genuinely, Jamal. When we are drunk, we tend to be dangerous and disruptive... the consequences of having suc...

If I had to choose a fruit representing philosophy, I would go for a coconut. Why? Because although it is tough and rough in the bark, it has a juicy ...

What if that someone claims to be frank instead? :scream:
September 03, 2024 at 18:55
The active-shoutbox-user is a paid job, so Discord is definitely a good choice in my most humble opinion. :smile:

I joined the Discord server. I used to use Discord four years ago with a different user name when I was very addicted to anime. It is a cool place but...

After reading three novels by Kundera, I am starting to think that 'unbearable' is a concept of his own. We have the meaning of the adjective on one s...
