Can you make a resume of the year even if we are only on November 14th? And why not?
First of all, I wanted to apologize to those who had wondered what happened to me, but it has been an intense year from different points of view: personal, work and family. I have significantly reduced my presence here for reasons of survival; I put in good intentions to return.
A difficult year. It started under the signs of the pandemic and the war, and then cancer to move on to stratospheric energy bills, to the damage of bad weather, to health problems in the family, up to the last painful but tragicomic health problems. I can not say that I loved this year in a particular way.
But, even in the shadows, a light must be seen, and therefore I also had satisfactions, things that have improved even beyond expectations and others that, in hindsight, could have been worse.
Where have I been?
If writing a long text had become extremely expensive, I found consolation in Twitter, where my vein of pernicious irony has a more suitable home. There I discovered a funny world between conspiracies, egotisms, and assorted sarcasm, voluntary and not.
It served me to refine the ability to make irony and sarcasm in a few characters, which for someone who is naturally long-winded like me is certainly a useful exercise.
Obviously, being ” 2022″ always ” 2020-2,” Elon arrived to make everything more interesting, bringing the twitterer on the verge of perhaps oblivion.🤣
What I learned (if I learned anything)
Those who know me know that even in the worst situations, I prefer the levity of a smile to the heaviness of seriousness.
For the umpteenth time, I have found that this thing often clashes with an idea of seriousness that is all in form and not in content. Not that it bothers me; on the contrary, it amuses me.
Once again, I found confirmation that few use numbers for what they are, and the most bizarre interpretations are always at hand. I must never assume that the person I speak to can understand a statistic or graph: I always specify the context, the nature of the data, and how it is represented.
But do you know if this were not where the fun would be?
Resolutions for the future
Beyond the obvious, survive, I would say that I would like to resume attending these shores, and resume the discourse interrupted with the Email Files and expand the perimeter
Thank you for the friendship I have collected in recent months, see you soon
Antonio
