Specialized vocabulary is always problematic. Cooking is what gets me. For example, in English there are 4 different ways to measure a teaspoon - scant, level, rounded, and heaping. Sure teaspoon is cucharada, but the details...

Good! AirBnB is the devil, and the sooner it goes away, the better.

Well, sure, a corpse is stable. It lies there on the ground and doesn't move.

It would be in line with the pettiness we have sadly come to expect from Milei and his minions.

Thank you for reminding me how desperately we need a "Dislike" button. There really needs to be a way to express emphatic disagreement without having to write something that may provoke or insult.

Well, I don't run anymore. At my age and with my knees, my fastest pace these days is more like a half-assed civilian version of the airborne shuffle, but I used to walk through the park 3-4 times a week, back when I lived in Las Cañitas. My usual route was along Dorrego past the Campo de...

https://www.rt.com/russia/608001-putin-russia-retaliation-strikes/ Hey, come on, its only the potential end of the world as we know it. Nothing to worry about.

In the Bosque Palermo, behind the hipódromo, you can meet a bunch of muchachas con manija. You know, if your "friend" is looking for something exotic...

Oh, this is going to spawn a whole crop of new memes

OK, I'm getting into this The US Embassy in Katmandu reports an unhealthy 191 The US Consulate in Dhaka, Bangladesh reports 190 Most of South America is green, with a scattering of yellow flags. The one and only exception is a single report from Cali, Colombia of a 150. The numbers in North...

One of the problems with talking about AQI is that it is measured differently in different countries. I did find one website waqi that offers some global info. BsAs today is 4-10 and New Delhi is 216 Los Angeles 53-78 San Diego, one anomalous reading of 59, but all the rest are 25-36 Baltimore...

I was going to say, AQI in north India was over 1000 just a few days ago

Yes, that's the one, and almost exactly same price I paid at the Coto, IIRC Sorry, bro, I ate 'em all and threw out the bag already. Salty crunchies like that don't last long around here :)

Here we go! Primera parte de una serie sobre el túnel de J.M. de Rosas.Entrevista a Jorge Bojanic. Jorge nos invita a dar un recorrido por Palermo para descubrir un túnel oculto que fue construido por esclavos en época colonial, que fue utilizado por JM de Rosas y luego fue utilizado por los...

Fine old traditional galletas saladas of Argentina. Been made with beef tallow forever, since Perón was in exile. But I wasn't paying attention and grabbed a bag of the new "100% vegetal" ones. Much to my amazement, they're still just as good. Mind you, they still have three "escudos negros" -...

El Trencito, yes, I saw that listed as a nickname, along with the little yellow duck? Okayyyyy! Anyhow, thanks for sharing. Buenos Aires certainly has its quirks. There's one gentleman on YouTube expounding passionately about a "hidden tunnel" under Palermo, even.

You know how the YouTube algorithm mostly feeds you garbage, but every now and then throws up something really interesting? This morning it showed me a video about the U line, or Linea Urquiza This seems to be an odd little offshoot of the subte system. Officially it's part of the FCGU rail...

And there you have it, open admission of foreign manipulation and interference in Argentine politics.
