Ne postoje riječi za opisati tu razinu susramlja kad ovaj mag progovori
Pitanje hrvatske manjine je kljueno
Na pitanje hoce li i status hrvatske zajednice u Croj Gori utjecati na to da Hrvatska blokira europski put Crne Gore, Grlié Radman odgovorio je da nema blokiranja, veé samo potrebe da se ispune sustinska pitanja vladavine prava te ljudskih i manjinskih prava.
"Ja vam mogu reci da je to kod nas uvijek pro pitanje: polozaj hrvatskog naroda u Croj Gori. I uvijek isticemo da imamo osjecaj da se zatire hrvatski identitet lagano i vrlo diskretno. Evo, recimo, zadnje sto je bilo, govor o Dobrotskoj cipki, gdje se, recimo, uopée ne govori o tome da je ona imala svoje hrvatsko porijeklo",
kazao je Grlic Radman.
On je pojasnio da su Zene koje su radile tu cipku bile Hrvatice, a kasnije i druge, Srpkinje i Crnogorke, ali da, kada se predstavijao i promovirao znacaj ove kulturne
bastine nije spomenuto to hrvatsko porijeklo.

To quote Lando Calrissian, this deal is getting worse all the time. 10-ish years is certainly going to turn into longer, closing playgrounds and ruining local residents' lives, only to lock in the current design for generations. We need to think bigger. (And I get that this US DOT makes that hard.)

Jedan od znacajnijih reverse kultur shockova u HR mi je bio kako bogati ljudi ne mare sto zive u govnima - npr. podsljemenska zona gdje se do svojih vila na sitnim parcelama pored stracara voze poljskim putevima. Tako ni Plenki ne mari za smece kojim ce napuniti grad u kojem i on sam zivi.

Fijasko sa stadionom prošli tjedan je pokazao kako brzo se možeš poskliznuti kad ti teren u javnosti nije pripremljen. Mislim da je to bilo loše, ali ta priča je manje više gotova. Današnji štrajk bi mogao biti druga strana te iste medalje, na iznenađenje HDZ-a i njihovih drugara.

Jedna potpuno anegdotalna, i možda potpuno irelevantna obzervacija, ali koju bi ZET-ovci možda trebali uzeti u obzir. Za razliku od drugih gradove gdje sam živio, gdje je uvijek postojala jaka solidarnost između vozača i putnika, u tramvajima i autobusima ZET-a se uvijek osjećam kao da mrze putnike

Man, you'd be hard pressed to find someone more bullish than me on urgency of Western Balkans EU accession AND the negative impact of fortress Europe on the WB, but this "proposal" is so deeply disconnected from both the reality of the accession process AND the current dysfunction of Schengen itself

If we let the current crop of "AI" people stay in charge, we are not gonna make it; not because of "superintelligent AI," but because of what the MIT study terms "cognitive surrender": offloading and deterioration of critical skills. And it increasingly feels like that's exactly what they want.
