Exactly! Remote work available to more people would also help.
Cities are starting to feel all the same now, so I love staying rural, no food delivery, enjoying what each season brings, and buying less stuff. Cities are hot, full of cars and noise.
Galiza state of mind

I don’t disagree with the sentiment of your comment, but I feel it lacks some nuance.
First of all, where are those empty houses located? A lot of the pressure is in larger urban areas: Lisboa, Porto, Braga, Coimbra. If the houses are away from an urban centre, they might as well not exist.
Portugal also has a huge emigrant community, and it’s common for emigrants to have a house back in the home country, usually in more rural areas, but not always. These houses are a little retirement plan, and tend to stay unoccupied for months or years, only used when that owner goes to Portugal on holidays, or when/if they decide to return.
I look the hotel up in Booking, and then call it directly. I am usually offered better rates for the same room over the phone.
Disgusting, they shot a kid and made sure he couldn’t be saved:
One Israeli soldier chased Rafat and shot him in the abdomen from a distance of 10 meters [33 feet],” DCIP said.
The Israeli forces shot at Rafat again when a Palestinian man came to his aid, said the group, the only rights organisation specifically focused on children in Palestine.
“The Palestinian man threw himself on top of Rafat and rolled him toward his house, less than five meters [16 feet] away. The man and his family sheltered Rafat for about an hour and a half as the Israeli military prevented ambulances from accessing Jenin refugee camp.
An Irish mad lad
😮 I want to believe your explanation, but it sounds too good to be true.
From the article:
It is a temperature anomaly of almost 15 degrees above typical values.
37-15= 22ºC
Yeah, but all the people taking multiple flights a year for weekend getaways aren’t solely the responsibility of the “corporations”, are they?
Spotify pays very very little to artists per stream. Tidal is a better streaming platform to send money their way.

Jokes aside, what was the motive here? She was pretty young for a VP, so it sounds like she was well liked/connected. In other cases of “mysterious window affliction” the victims were known critics of the regime.
Maybe it was an accident, she could be very drunk. Or a crime – she had a friend over, maybe there was a fight?
One thing is clear, Russian windows should come with a warning label ☠️
Makes sense: if the age goes up, fewer people get to retire before the world becomes unlivable.
I edited 11 years of comments to “spez sucks”, censored or not, they won’t be very useful to sell as training data
It isn’t hard to see why France is taking action to manage visitor numbers. After all, locals and the environment should come first. If they can’t survive, will there eventually be anything actually worth visiting?
Excellent. This about sums it up. Portugal could take a page off France’s book while it is not too late, but I won’t hold my breath.
A mobilidade total, permitida pela desmaterialização dos cadernos eleitorais, aplica-se, também, aos portugueses no estrangeiro num universo global de 10,8 milhões de eleitores.
Muito bom, poupará muitas dores de cabeça a quem está fora do país. Pelo menos aos poucos que se dão ao trabalho de ir votar.
Olá! Sou do Porto mas vivo fora há 10+ anos, primeiro pela Irlanda, em Dublin, e agora assentei arraiais na Galiza, no norte de Espanha.
Uso o kbin, mas fico contente por vos encontrar por aqui, é a beleza do Fediverso. Sou mais activa no Mastodon (catarina@masto.pt), era super lurker no Reddit desde 2011, vamos ver como será por aqui :)
