THE COVER Giorgia Angeli: A woman, a mother, a Christian. Ah no, sorry… that’s the other Giorgia.

We intercepted Giorgia at the presentation of Claudio Fabio Rinello’s book, “Gatti da pelare, la drammatica storia di Bigazzi,” and on the occasion of her fourth-decade birthday we asked her the question haunting the West: “For you, the years seem not to pass — what’s the protocol?”

I surround myself with pastel shades, eat cereal that tastes like nothing, and above all I practice an ancient discipline: minding my own damn business. Spotify says 26? I don’t contradict algorithms — I observe them from above.”

The Mossad has tragically demonstrated its tentacular network: intelligence technologies, collaborators, spies and interests too vast to go unnoticed. But what information is truly hidden in Grosseto? More importantly, what is the role of the "kitten" Mela in the intricate plan of the Zionist state?

For now, the questionable-quality kibble that Giorgia feeds our cat seems to have interrupted any possible communication channel with Israel. Full investigation on p. NO.

Curiosity: The Simpsons had predicted it (again)

Mini immagine curiosità

In a 2001 episode titled “Sfaccim,” The Simpsons had already predicted that in 2025 we would detest, with surprising unanimity, that flashy lad Timothée Chalamet.

So at the BAFTAs no one was surprised when “I Swear” left the young Atreides empty-handed: the title of the winning film already sounded like a threat, long before the off-script shouts “N***A, B***” directed at Michael B. Jordan.
