The Iran crisis
On February 28th 2026, the US and Israel launched an attack on Iran, killing several key leaders including Ayatollah Ali Khamenei himself — and hundreds of innocent civilians. This comes less than two months after the US triggered a somewhat similar operation in Venezuela…
This is revolting
I am fully aware that we currently live in this Trumpian bubble, where virtually every day sees a new trove of grotesque, shocking if not downright tragic declarations and/or events unfold…
It’s been a year
It’s been a funny year. And by funny, I mean full of largely unexpected twists and turns… Then the next question is: now what?
A ray of sunshine
What I’m most interested in is those moments in musical history when artistry meets commercial appeal: the Beatles, naturally, Queen, my absolute favorite, Kendrick Lamar, more recently… and now Rosalía.
Serious matter
“This show is not important. What is important is that we get to live in a country that allows us to have a show like this”: this is one of many quotable moments from last night’s monologue as delivered by Jimmy Kimmel…
This is 44
The year is 2025 and I am still blogging. To be more accurate, with (way) less intensity than before; which is kinda what I’m trying to fix right now: I may not be the next Hemingway (I don’t drink — anymore — anyway) but at least I can do this…
School’s out
Last week, my first born finished her first year of school — ever. She was super excited about the fact that she got to play with her friends till the end, that Friday night was movie night… and of course that school was ending.

My photos on a wall
There’s so much exquisite political news out there that I forgot to talk about what is obviously the biggest update by far: I recently got my very first photo exhibit. I know what you’re thinking: does GH even do photography?
What Trump learned from Putin
I like to think that I’m a smart and educated guy who is able to take a step back from the news as they unfold on the world stage. However, I’d be lying if I said I have been able to stay level-headed the entire time Donald Trump has been back in office…
What did I miss?
If you spent the last few weeks committing to a silent retreat in the woods, I suppose you won’t be reading this post. But if you were, I would suggest you only stick to it for now…
Don’t feel down
There’s a lot to feel down about these days. And that’s a good thing: it means you are not a sociopath. The thing is, you shouldn’t, because that’s how they really win…
Musky Elon
I will be honest: I admired Elon Musk for a number of years. That was, however, before the man turned ideological…
Strange times
Watching a US late night talk show now, you can’t help but feel a degree of sadness infused in most of what the hosts are saying. Does this mean this is game over?
The intelligence of Donald Trump
Not everybody thought Kamala Harris could win, but very few predicted that Donald Trump would so in such a decisive manner. So, what happened?
I could care less
I am not American, therefore I do not really care what happens on November 5th. Except I do, for three key reasons…
