Nella lunga notte degli Oscar blindata dai «conflitti globali» | il manifesto

(Visioni) Niente grosse sorprese o grandi sbavature: la cerimonia per la novantottesima edizione degli Academy Awards si è svolta in un’atmosfera di elegante efficienza (sulla East Coast alle 11 si poteva esser già a letto), blindata quasi ermeticamente dal caos e dai conflitti globali - se non fosse per l’assenza forse velatamente polemica di Sean Penn

My #Parents are back from their #Trip to #Quebec and #TheEastCoast (they went as far as #NewBrunswick to visit one of my #uncles).

They came back last night at around 11 pm #RockyMountainTime.

I'm glad their back, I just wish I knew they would be home last night.

I swore they would be gone until next Sunday, and planned to get all the housecleaning done before then.

#Sigh.
