THE TRIPLE GODDESS OF THE AZUL FAMILY.
The Triple Goddess is viewed as a triunity of distinct aspects or figures united in one being. These figures are often described as the Maiden, the Mother, and the Crone, each of which symbolizes both a separate stage in the female life cycle and a phase of the Moon, and often rules one of the realms of heavens, earth, and underworld. Arianrhod, Cerridwen and Rhiannon are the three aspects of the deity that is connected with the Azul bloodline, made of potential druids, druid carriers and, as a recent addition, a celestial crafter.

‘A story Brazil never wanted to tell’: the podcasts reclaiming the country’s Black history
Tiago Rogero’s productions are a celebration of the people who arrived in the country as slaves and their descendants who persevere and carry on their legacy
Tumblr media
One of Brazil’s most celebrated Black authors sat on stage and posed a vital question to a nation unaware of its past.
Why, asked Conceição Evaristo, were Brazilian schoolchildren taught about the 1835 Ragamuffin war – when separatist forces rebelled against the empire at the behest of white landowners – but not the Malê revolt, a Black Muslim slave uprising that erupted in the very same year?
For Tiago Rogero, a young Black reporter in the audience, it was a eureka moment.
“It’s true, I thought,” the journalist said of Evaristo’s question in the autumn of 2018. “I knew it was a slave revolt but that was about all … I genuinely didn’t know. So I decided to make a podcast about the stories I thought had been hidden when I was at school.”
The result was a trilogy of podcasts celebrating Black lives and Black matters – the Black people, struggles and achievements that had been airbrushed from the history of a country that is more than 50% Black.
The most recent of those podcasts – the Querino Project – calls itself a Brazilian answer to the New York Times’s 1619 Project, which rethought US history through the prism of slavery and the key role Black citizens had in shaping that nation.
“It’s a story Brazil never wanted to tell but instead wanted to suppress,” said Rogero, 34, whose earlier podcasts were called Negra Voz (Black Voice) and Vidas Negras (Black Lives).

hello! I am wondering why do u want to shift in El Filibusterismo or Noli me tangere? Just curious to know.
[thanks for this ask!]
HOLY FUCK HOLY SHITTING FUCK SOMEONE FINALLY NOTICED I'M SO HAPPY LMAO
i have so much to say about this oh my fucking god-
first things first, with the el noli fandom being very small, and the novels' author being very dead, i feel obliged to say that i have been desperately craving for content for the past how many years. much of this is due to the fact that the story itself is unfinished (don't even get me started on Makamisa)—but what really takes the cake is that i, along with my friends, have some thoughts on the two main novels.
[immediate apologies for this rant,, i tried to keep this short as i didn't want to get too into the topic lmao]
[TW: major spoilers for Noli Me Tángere and El Filibusterismo by José Rizal]
- - -
(1) character disappearances
basilio was a major character in el filibusterismo not only because of his involvement in the story, but because of his past. he knew simoun's true identity, and likely had an idea what happened with elias (there's no way he wouldn't know this—especially when the scandal with crisostomo was such a big thing with the nobility, not to mention basilio being taken under captain tiago's wing after). while i wouldn't yet call him an accomplice to simoun's formation or development as a character at this point in time, when he buries his mother and elias with crisostomo, it's one of the points of interest in his story because it's how he gets involved with one of the main characters in the first place.
moving on to the sequel; he becomes a main character himself. for his story, he could've used his position as a lauded student of medicine to his advantage, especially after julí's death. I'm of the opinion that even if his reputation was ruined due to the arrests, there's no way he couldn't have pulled a favour or two. basilio was angry enough to agree to simoun's offer of revolution, and we don't see much else in the last few chapters save for him trying to stop isagani from going to the party. we don't see him at all after that.
and placido ))):< mans had a whole chapter to himself and we barely ever see him again. the one time we do later in the novel, it's a mere footnote. we don't know the specifics of what he did under simoun's command, we don't even get to witness him in action. what happened in the time between his meeting with simoun and the botched explosion? what happens with his mother after the debacle? what did padre millon do after his outburst? i have so many more questions crammed in one of my oldest google docs lmfao. overall, i really like placido's character too. i felt a kinship with him when i read his chapter—so that factored into my interest in his character.
- - -
(2) unfinished story + literature
i understand that the author died before the last novel was finished, but after getting so invested in the series, it left me wanting as a reader. don't get me wrong—i love reading about the theories being made on both official research and on fanfictions when it comes to the stories. but with the fanbase being so small, and some documents unavailable for perusal (at least for me), it's hard to cope with the knowledge that we won't get much else.
additionally, from what I've heard, the novels are being treated as homework, and just that. just research for a subject. perhaps it's my obsession with the stories peaking through, but i stand by that. as a fan of classic literature, especially of works that aren't as globally recognised, it kinda hurts my soul lmao.
alright, listen; material like Les Misérables, Crime and Punishment, The Count of Monte Cristo, The Picture of Dorian Gray, Pride and Prejudice, and et cetera—they deserve their acclaim. I'm not downplaying any of the author's successes nor the legacies that those kinds of works have earned. but stories such as Noli Me Tángere, El Filibusterismo, Wives and Daughters, The Setting Sun, Doña Barbara, and more—i enjoy reading lesser known literature. they have fewer analyses, lower recognition, and are generally more obscure. shifting for these classics is the true immersion, the true experience, in my opinion. it's a chance at finally getting the worlds I've only imagined fully come into life.
- - -
(3) personal reasons
a few days ago, a friend of mine remarked that we (the three of us who's in the group) might have had a chance at being called attractive had we lived during the time period the novels were written. this isn't to degrade my friends or myself in any way—just simply stating that there are always better people when it comes to things like beauty. i agreed with her. growing up, i never really fit into that category of conventional attractiveness; and while I've often been told otherwise, i know i still had to grow into my looks, and earn my place into the middle hierarchy with peers, not like the people who've had the privilege of money and breeding to comfort themselves with to actually pay to be attractive.
I'm not saying that to sound misogynistic—i genuinely don't give a shit about the peers who gave me trouble in the past—but i do want to experience that too, you know? everyone's always dreamed of a better life, and what finer way than shifting to experience that?

In the days of the 12th emperor, there was a grand menagerie on the shores of Lake Lagora, across the water from the city of Puerrno. It was curated the the eldest daughter, and only legitimate child, of Tiago XII, Crown Princess Marisela, after being gifted to her by her husband Count Renzo Crespo of Puerrno. Having been fostered by the court at Asha, the princess’s favourite creature was not one of the fantastical animals resident in the menagerie, but a moose by the name of Tonillo, which had been her particular pet since childhood and was given pride of place. Soon after the marriage the princess fell pregnant, but would still visit Tonillo every day, even giving birth in the boat back to Palacio Crespo, to two healthy boys. The first, by tradition, was named for his grandfather, and the second for his father. It was then that the elder Renzo realised his legacy was secure. Three days later the princess passed suddenly in her sleep. It was announced as complications of pregnancy, though those close to the family, when they were feeling brave, whispered at involvement from the Order of the Scorpion. The sad calls of Tonillo began the next day, and would not abate until his death a week later, starved by grief.

2022 Serie A Preview: Roma
Tumblr media
Last Year's Finish: 6th
Predicted Finish: 2nd
Odds To Win Serie A: 8 to 1 via Oddschecker
Prospects:
Goodness, what a change a year can make. The Giallorossi finished the season as Europa Conference League champions in what was their first European final in 31 years. Although they finished just a point higher than in the previous season under Paulo Fonseca, José Mourinho has given Roma a much-needed identity built on winning. It's a complete culture change, with players buying into the philosophy of the man-in-charge and with Mourinho once again smiling for the first time in what feels like years. It's the perfect marriage of city, team, manager, and culture when it comes to Roma and it feels like everything is peaking at the right time. Fiercely loyal to a fault, Roma fans have embraced Mourinho, ignored his flaws, and gravitated toward his philosophy and mentality with players doing the same. And while we've seen some players lose out because of that, others like Pellegrini and Tammy Abraham have thrived, with Abraham especially becoming the most lethal striker in Serie A.
Mourinho has always had a reputation for managing the best squads in club football and giving his squads an identity built around winning titles and while they won the Europa Conference League last year and secured a title, you can feel it's different this time around. This isn't the Mourinho who stays three years and bolts. This isn't volatile Mourinho who is cutting pressers and using quotes like "that's three for me, two for them, so respect." This time, it's evident that Mourinho took on a project and is building a project he truly believes in and he is taking his time to perfect it. He has brought in statement pieces all over the pitch. Dybala, Gini in the midfield, Mike Svilar to be a backup goalie, and possibly Andrea Belotti to add striker depth. This is a serious project and something being built for the present and the future.
Roma is dangerous, but while they can win now, this is a team built to last. In a crazy way, this is Mourinho's legacy stop, as weird as that sounds. A man who has won everywhere in the world and won the Champions League multiple times over has chosen Roma to be the definitive mark of his legacy on football. Sometimes, football makes romantics out of us all.
Transfers:
Tiago Pinto, Roma's Director of Football made himself into a God to Roma fans this transfer window. If not God-like, then at the very least? God-adjacent. Numerous big-name signings have been brought in by Pinto, without letting any star players go, which has been the case in the past.
After numerous reports of Paulo Dybala being expected to join Inter Milan, the Argentine decided to make the switch to the Italian capital after becoming impatient with the Nerazzurri management. The 28-year-old arrives on a free transfer from Juventus and will be eager to prove himself after struggling to find consistency in recent seasons. If he finds his form again, which you can argue he never lost- but people are FICKLE- then this is a monumental signing for Roma.
Young, technically gifted, with creativity and a nose for goal, Dybala was let down by Juve's management and their inability to get proper strike partners who weren't already 34 years old+ (Ronaldo), finally getting hurt after carrying that team for years. Yet, people act like Dybala wasn't consistently leading the team in goal contributions, consistently providing 10+ goals when healthy, and consistently getting you 10+ assists. There was an unfair narrative built around Dybala being cooked even though he had no help, and people feasted on the narrative, tabloids especially, publicizing the "fall from grace" of a talented player while never acknowledging that he was never given a proper team around him that ever played to his strengths. And for the record? No, giving him a washed Ronaldo is not giving him a squad. Stop that narrative right now, because it's horseshit regurgitated by CR7 fanboys who don't want to admit the man is a washed 37-year-old who has been an albatross at the last two places he's called his footballing home (Juventus & Manchester United)
Back to the point, Pinto added some much-needed depth by bringing in Lille right-back Zeki Celik for €7 million and signing Manchester United free agent Nemanja Matić, who has worked with Mourinho previously at Chelsea and Old Trafford. Goalkeeping duo Pau López and Robin Olsen have both been sold and replaced by promising Benfica goalkeeper Mile Svilar, Cengiz Ünder and Alessandro Florenzi made their loan moves to Marseille and AC Milan permanent while Henrikh Mkhitaryan left on a free transfer to join Inter. And as mentioned, Georginio Wijnaldum has joined from Paris Saint Germain on a loan-to-buy deal and Andrea Belotti will sign a three-year deal after leaving Torino this summer to add additional depth. When Gini and Belotti are depth moves? Pinto did great.
One To Watch:
Dybala will get the headline this year, but Tammy Abraham arrived from Stamford Bridge for £34m last season and has become Roma’s most important player within the space of a season. The 24-year-old striker amassed 27 goals and five assists across 53 matches last season and finished joint-third in the Serie A scoring race with 17 goals. To put it lightly, he was a man amongst boys and he DOMINATED games by himself. He was lethal, playing an integral part in Roma’s Conference League campaign, and has since been linked with a potential move back to the Premier League before being labeled untouchable by man in Roma's inner circle.
Scarily enough, you can argue that Abraham has never played with an outright 10 behind him or a proper striker partner. Usually left alone to lead the line, it's incredible to think that a strike partnership with Belotti or the idea of Dybala feeding him is currently on the table. Abraham will score 30 this year before it's all said and done.
Outlook:
This team is rising at the right time and all the pieces are coming together. They've added necessary pieces to strengthen the team, and young players have gained more experience and statement signings with notable talent have joined the team. The only thing that could hurt Roma is the number of competitions they find themselves in, but this team has the experience and the capability to withstand it.
Their leadership core has fought through European campaigns and they've added known winners in Dybala and Wijnaldum, guys who have won domestic titles and UCL titles, respectively. Moreover, you have Mourinho who is a serial winner, a man who has locked down the treble before, in Italy no less, has won the Champions League multiple times, and knows what it takes to reach the summit of world football. If ever there was a manager for a city looking for success, it's Mourinho and the truth is, they're probably not done. January's market will be interesting in they're close in the hunt. Mourinho is looking for that last grasp at the chalice, that last grasp at the throne, and his charges at Roma are just as hungry and salivating at the bit with a dangerous and talented squad that has added talent, depth, and firepower across the board. AC Milan has a dogfight on its hands.

Evens Arts Prize 2021
Tumblr media
The Evens Arts Prize 2021 is awarded to choreographer and dancer Marlene Monteiro Freitas, with a Special Mention of the Jury for artist Andrea Büttner.
The biennial Prize honours artists who engage with the challenges of contemporary Europe. The laureates were selected by an independent jury from nominations put forward by 25 representatives of cultural institutions across Europe.
The Jury of the 2021 edition was composed of Daniel Blanga Gubbay, Artistic Co-Director of Kunstenfestivaldesarts, Brussels; Manuel Borja-Villel, Director of Museo Reina Sofia, Madrid; Carlo Chatrian, Artistic Director of the Berlinale, Berlin; Anne Hilde Neset, Director of Kunstnernes Hus, Oslo; and Christine Standfest, Dramaturg, Curator, ImPulsTanz Festival, Vienna. The Jury Chair is Ernest Van Buynder, Honorary Chairman, M KHA, Antwerp.
Curated by Anne Davidian for Evens Foundarion.
The Laureate Marlene Monteiro Freitas (born in 1979, Cape Verde) is a choreographer, artist, and the founder of the Lisbon-based production and dance company P.OR.K. With a career spanning over 15 years, Freitas has earned a reputation for creating visually and sensorially rich performances.
“Freitas invests in the construction of worlds where lush, evil, illness, madness and opulence are underlined – excesses that the choreographer proposes us to meet through the confrontation with surprising visual scenarios and performers’ strong physical language,” explain Tiago Rodrigues, Director, Festival d’Avignon, and Cristina Grande, Head of the Performing Arts Department, Serralves Foundation, Porto, who nominated Freitas for the Prize.
Freitas' recent creations include Pierrot Lunaire (2021), which premiered at Wiener Festwochen, Mal – Embriaguez Divina (2020), 2020 Bacchae - Prelude to a Purge (2017). In 2018 La Biennale di Venezia awarded the artist the Silver Lion for Dance.
Jury statement The jury recognised the singular and compelling force of the choreographic worlds created by the artist Marlene Monteiro Freitas. Daring and experimental, their sensorial immediacy draws discrete audiences into contact with a dazzling interplay of bodies, energies and effects.
The jury particularly praised the artist’s rich and layered scrutiny of European cultural traditions and their legacies. Often merging genres, myths and allegories, the works deftly undermine implicit power structures, reimagining traditions not as fixed absolutes, but as fluid encounters between subjectivities.
The Special Mention of the Jury The jury chose to award a Special Mention to Berlin-based visual artist Andrea Büttner. The Special Mention distinction was introduced in 2019 as a way to recognise outstanding work and contributions to the European art scene.
Andrea Büttner (1972, Stuttgart, Germany) connects art history with social and ethical issues, exploring broad-ranging topics such as poverty, work, community, belief, botany, Catholicism, and philosophy. Her work is based on thorough research into specific areas or situations and is articulated through diverse formats including printmaking, sculpture, painting, photography, and video. "The artistic project of Andrea Büttner proposes a bridge between different historical eras and worldviews, showing ways of being together that arise out of the gaps that divide people", explains Lars Bang Larsen, Co-Director, Art Hub, Copenhagen, who nominated the artist for the Prize.
Shortlisted for the Turner Prize in 2017, Büttner had numerous solo exhibitions at institutions worldwide, including Kunstmuseum Basel (2023), Bergen Kunsthall (2018); Hammer Museum (2017); Kunsthalle Wien (2016); Walker Art Center (2015); Tate Britain (2014). She teaches at Kunsthochschule Kassel and has authored several books.
Jury statement The Special Mention of the Jury is given to the artist Andrea Büttner for her rich, multifaceted work, that composes and dismantles relationships between cultural registers, philosophical and aesthetic traditions of Western modernity, and European histories of fascism and exploitation.
With her in-depth research into the systems of value and practices of craftmanship, her works weave intricate connections between dignity, shame, religion, care, and labour. The jury particularly noted Büttner’s ability to uncover the transformative potentials of collaborative processes, illuminating otherwise shrouded forms of resistance, togetherness, and community.
The nominators of the Evens Arts Prize 2021 Aaron Cesar, Director, Delphina Foundation, London; Andrea Lissoni, Director, Haus der Kunst, Munich; Bart de Baere, Director, M HKA, Antwerp; Lars Bang Larsen, Co-Director, Art Hub, Copenhagen; Beatrice Fiorentino, International Film Critics Week, Venice Film Festival; Björn Gottstein, Artistic Director, Donaueschinger Musiktage, Donaueschingen; Cristina Grande, Head of the Performing Arts Department, Serralves Foundation, Porto; Christophe Slagmuylder, Artistic Director, Wiener Festwochen, Vienna; Christos Carras, Director, Onassis Foundation, Athens; Ekaterina Degot, Steirischer Herbst, Graz; Eva Sangiorgi, Artistic Director, Viennale, Vienna; Farid Rakun, Artistic Co-Director, documenta 15; Frank Madlener, Director, IRCAM, Paris; Julia Eckhardt, Artistic Director, Q-02, Brussels; Maialen Beloki Berasategui, Deputy Director, San Sebastien Film Festival; Malgorzata Ludwisiak, Board Member, CiMAM; Marcella Lista, Chief Curator, Centre Pompidou, Paris; Marta Keil, Director, Performing Arts Institute, Warsaw; Mathilde Henrot, Selector, Locarno Film Festival; Niklas Engstrøm, Artistic Director, CPH:DOX, Copenhagen; Silvia Fanti, Artistic Director, Live Arts Week /Xing, Bologna; Teja Reba, Program Director, City of Woman, Ljubliana; Tiago Rodrigues, Artistic Director, Teatro National Dona Maria II, Lisbon; and Virve Sutinen, Artistic Director, Tanz im August Festival, Berlin.

Headcanon: Nick & Rafael
Meet the da Silva family
---
Tumblr media
Renato Soares da Silva (Tony Ramos)
Renato is Rafael and Nicolau's father; a retired prosecutor in his 70s, who still lives in Belo Horizonte and enjoys good health given his high age. He is immensely proud of his eldest son for his journalistic achievements, and deeply disappointed in his youngest for his homosexuality and decision to leave Brazil for the US. Despite their differences and his open disdain for his youngest son, Renato helped Nico survive his first night as a werewolf and keeps his secret safe to this day.
---
Tumblr media
Ana Maria Schmidt Moreira (†) (Sônia Braga)
Ana was Rafael and Nicolau's mother. She died when her sons were 12 and 7 years old; leaving behind a devastated husband who sought refuge in his work and the bottom of a bottle, an older son who had to fill in her role, taking over household chores and looking after his little brother, and her youngest, who in turn coped by fixating on his brother.
---
Tumblr media
Rafael Moreira da Silva (Wagner Moura)
Rafael is Nicolau's older brother. The two, along with Rafa's childhood best friend Joana, had been practically inseparable until Rafael eventually left Belo Horizonte for uni and later travelled the world. Being incapable of maintaining social connections himself, his brother makes sure they keep in touch to this day, claiming it's his turn to look after his older brother now. Rafael lives currently in São Paulo working as a journalist all over the globe. He takes after his father, sharing his workaholism and liability to addiction.
---
Tumblr media
Nicolau Moreira da Silva (Wagner Moura)
Nicolau is Rafael's younger brother. Growing up he had always looked up to his older brother, thinking of him as a safe haven even after Rafa had moved out. When Nico had his coming out he confided in Rafael first. Only when he was turned into a werewolf aged 17 did he start keeping secrets from his older brother. After uni he immigrated to the US where he still lives, owning an occult bookshop. He takes after his mother, allowing himself to be sensitive and obliging.
---
Tumblr media
Joana Luíza Ribeiro Pinto de Mello Neves (Alinne Moraes)
Joana is Rafael's ex-wife; being the kid next door, she grew up with the da Silva boys, regarding Nico as her younger brother and Rafa as her best friend whom she eventually married. Despite filing for divorce after only 13 years, Joana still cares about Rafael and keeps in touch with Nick. She his happily remarried and lives in Rio de Janeiro working in the tourism industry.
---
Tumblr media
Vaneza Talita Pinto da Silva (Bianca Comparato)
Vaneza is Rafael's daughter. She was 13 when her parents got divorced and though she initially harboured a grudge against her father whom she had barely seen during her childhood, they both reconciled eventually. She has inherited his zeal and stubbornness, and aims to continue the family legacy as a second generation journalist, currently living in Brasília.
---
Tumblr media
Tiago Vicente Pinto da Silva (Rodolfo Valente)
Tiago is Rafael's son. Six years younger than his sister, and continued the less prestigious da Silva legacy; emulating Renato and Rafael in drinking heavily like his grandfather and turning to illegal substances like his dad. He's two years clean now, keeping himself above water with the occasional odd job, living with his girlfriend in São Gonçalo.

The 2014 NBA Champions San Antonio Spurs proved that teamwork, constant adaptation, and perseverance were key to their success. Guided by Coach Gregg Popovich, the Spurs utilized their depth and experience to dominate their opponents and clinch the title. This piece will explore the Spurs' victory in the context of other significant basketball moments and discuss its relevance for the future of the sport. Triumph Over Star-Powered Rosters The Spurs' 2014 roster wasn't built around one or two marquee names; success was driven by the collective effort. Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, and Manu Ginóbili were the veterans, while the likes of Kawhi Leonard, Danny Green, and Patty Mills contributed to the team's dynamic play. This approach contrasted starkly with other teams in the league, such as the Miami Heat, who boasted superstars like LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh during the same period. "Success is not about individual players; it's about the team as a whole." - Coach Gregg Popovich A Season of Adversity and Growth The road to the championship was not an easy one for the Spurs. Facing tough opponents like the Lakers and the Oklahoma City Thunder on their way to the Finals, the team demonstrated resilience and adaptability to overcome each obstacle. The 2014 NBA Finals saw the Spurs convincingly defeat the Miami Heat in only five games, avenging their loss in the previous season. The Impact on European Basketball The Spurs' victory managed to turn the spotlight onto several European players, such as Tony Parker (France) and Manu Ginóbili (Argentina), who contributed to the team's success. This exposure boosted the popularity of EuroBasket and attracted more fans to the sport. Popovich's coaching style and tactics were even emulated by other European coaches, leading to Fenerbahçe and Panathinaikos adopting similar playstyles. Spurs' Legacy in Basketball The Spurs' accomplishment transcended borders, with figures like Luka Dončić citing them as an example of good team basketball. Additionally, it has inspired young talents to aspire for joining the NBA, as seen with the upcoming draft prospects. Moreover, their victory set the stage for future matchups and international ties, such as Real Madrid's clashes with Olympiakos and Barcelona in European leagues. Embracing International Talent and the Evolution of Basketball The San Antonio Spurs' 2014 championship run marked a pivotal moment in basketball's evolution, showcasing the franchise's ability to embrace international talent and incorporate a diverse set of skills. From the finesse of Tony Parker to the sharpshooting skills of Patty Mills, the Spurs demonstrated how global talent could be seamlessly integrated into a winning formula. The International Edge One of the most interesting aspects of the Spurs' 2014 championship was their reliance on international talent. With nine players hailing from outside the United States, including stars like Tony Parker (France), Manu Ginóbili (Argentina), and Tiago Splitter (Brazil), the team had a unique diversity rarely seen in the NBA at that time. This internationalization allowed the Spurs to infuse their play with various global styles, making them unpredictable and highly effective. Pioneering Influence on the NBA The Spurs' success with international talent in 2014 contributed to an increased focus on global scouting by NBA organizations. Teams began to pay more attention to international prospects, with players like Nikola Jokić and Luka Dončić becoming trailblazers for European players in the NBA. The 2022 NBA Draft continues to showcase the growing prominence of international players, with many potential draftees primed to make an impact in the league. Inspiring the Next Generation The Spurs' 2014 championship served as an inspiration for aspiring basketball players in countries where the sport might have been less popular. Youngsters, now seeing role models like Parker and Ginóbili achieving success at the highest level, started to aim for an NBA career.
This led to an increase in basketball participation, particularly in European leagues, and events like EuroBasket gaining popularity. Catalyst for Change in the NBA The Spurs' dynamic gameplay and championship win also signaled a change within the NBA. Teams began to realize the importance of a balanced roster, not just relying on one or two superstars. This resulted in franchises becoming more tactical, with an increased focus on team chemistry, a trend best exemplified by the Boston Celtics and the Golden State Warriors. The Power of Analytics and Team Dynamics: The San Antonio Spurs' Teachings The San Antonio Spurs' 2014 NBA championship also illustrated the importance of analytics and team dynamics in basketball. The team's ability to maximize individual talents, strategic lineup alterations, and capitalizing on game data emphasized the significance of a multidimensional approach to the game. Data-Driven Decisions Under head coach Gregg Popovich, the Spurs utilized analytics in their decision-making, assessing players' efficiency and skillsets. This focus on data allowed Coach Popovich to make informed decisions regarding player rotations and exploited matchups more effectively than their opponents. As a result, the Spurs were consistently prepared, both offensively and defensively, to face any opposition. Flexible Lineups and Quick Adaptations One of the hallmarks of the 2014 Spurs was their ability to adapt to different game situations, with Popovich demonstrating a willingness to make bold lineup adjustments. The Spurs routinely adjusted their game plans, demonstrating a knack for making necessary changes at the right time. This strategic dexterity played a crucial role in winning decisive games, particularly against formidable opponents like the Miami Heat in the NBA Finals. Importance of Team Chemistry Perhaps the most notable aspect of the Spurs' 2014 championship was their emphasis on team chemistry, which created an environment of mutual growth and trust. This unity translated to excellent ball movement on the court, as well as a disciplined approach to defense. The Spurs' selfless gameplay inspired many teams to prioritize effective ball movement over isolation plays, influencing the way basketball is played at the NBA level. Lasting Legacy The Spurs' 2014 NBA Championship win continues to serve as a blueprint for teams hoping to build a championship-caliber roster. Lessons learned from the Spurs’ winning formula—embracing international talent, using analytics, seamless adaptability, and cultivating team chemistry—have become staples within the league. As teams seek to replicate the Spurs' success, the NBA has experienced a shift toward collective excellence, resulting in improved team dynamics and competitive balance. In the ever-evolving game of basketball, the San Antonio Spurs' 2014 championship run will forever be remembered for its transformative impact on the NBA. As we continue to follow the sport and stay in tune with its developments, SportyConnect remains committed to delivering comprehensive news, insights, and analyses of basketball worldwide. #SportyConnect

ChatGPT Creators Latest Project: World Coin Launches Crypto Wallet
ChatGPT Creator’s Latest Project: World Coin Launches Crypto Wallet https://bitcoinist.com/chatgpt-latest-project-world-coin-launches-crypto/ Sam Altman, the creator of ChatGPT, attracted attention from the crypto industry in 2021 by reviving a token founded in 2013, World Coin. The project has been progressing slowly, but today will launch a new tool designed for the “AI Age.” Per a press release shared with Bitcoinist, the team behind World Coin launched a new crypto wallet called World App, a financial and identity manager. Previously in a testing phase running on Polygon, the crypto wallet is now open to the public and free to download. ChatGPT, Not The Only Tool That Will Change The World? With a simplified interface, the wallet will natively support the World Coin and Ethereum ecosystems. The app has been designed to remove the friction from onboarding new users to crypto. In that sense, the app was created to fulfill three core objectives: provide people with a decentralized alternative to manage their data and identity, access finance, and increase crypto adoption. According to the release, World App was “intentionally designed” to protect people’s privacy. The crypto wallet will provide users with access to rewards for learning about crypto and even World Coin Grants to help the project evolve into a toolkit to “empower individuals in the Age of AI, built on top of the largest network of real humans.” The World App is available in over 80 countries. During its beta phase, the World App onboarded over 1.5 million users with 500,000 active monthly users and 60,000 transactions. Tiago Sada, Head of Product at Tools for Humanity, told Bitcoinist the following regarding their newest product: The intentionally simple design of World App aims to accelerate adoption of decentralized financial and identity systems. World App manages to abstract away a lot of complexity while preserving critical properties like self-custody and privacy. It is uniquely enabled by World ID’s Proof of Personhood to offer features such as gasless transactions, learn to earn courses, and 24/7 chat support to increase accessibility. Beyond A Crypto Wallet, What Is World App? The World App will be compatible with World ID, another application that operates as a “human passport to access” the internet. The app provides a seamless connection with the online world, allowing users to verify their identity, sign into websites, and access decentralized applications. In addition, World App can be connected to the legacy financial system. The app has several deposit and withdrawal options for bank accounts and local payment methods. People can send and receive money instantly for free. Per the release, the app is aiming at becoming much more than a crypto wallet: World App wallets use account abstraction through SAFE contracts to increase security and simplicity. Peer-to-peer payments support ENS usernames for friendlier ERC-20 transfers. Token trading is made possible by the Uniswap protocol. Circle’s USDC enables users around the world to hold digital stablecoins backed by real dollars in a compliant manner. Frictionless deposits and withdrawals are enabled by regulated providers around the world, including Ramp and MoonPay ChatGPT changed the world; the tool has provided millions with the power to enhance their workload and create at a new and faster pace. Can World App accomplish something similar in the crypto industry? Chart from Tradingview via Bitcoinist.com https://bitcoinist.com May 08, 2023 at 03:01PM

The Mafu Cage de Karen Arthur
Duas irmãs, a astrônoma Ellen Carpenter (Lee Grant) e a desenhista Cissy (Carol Kane) vivem em Los Angeles numa casa que parece a cópia de alguma selva em que viveram com o pai antropólogo quando eram crianças. Elas agora estão de luto pela morte dele e, enquanto Ellen é uma profissional dedicada, estudiosa do sol e cortejada por seu colega de trabalho David (James Olsen). Cissy, que visivelmente sofre de alguma perturbação emocional, vive todo seu tempo em casa com seus desenhos e parece se distanciar cada vez mais da realidade.
Tumblr media
The Mafu Cage é um filme praticamente desconhecido que merece muito ser visto e comentado. O conheci quando Jéssica Reinaldo e Michelle Henriques falaram dele no podcast The Witching Hour e vou deixar o link do programa lá no final do texto. Desde então fiquei numa busca desenfreada para conseguir uma legenda e nada de encontrar mas…quem tem amigos que amam a sétima arte, tem tudo né. Agradeço a Tiago pela graça alcançada.
A direção fica a cargo de Karen Arthur com roteiro de Don Chastain e Éric Wesphal. Karen, além de diretora é produtora e atriz, dirigiu os longas, Legacy (1975), The Mafu Cage (1978) e Lady Beware (1987). Porém, a maior parte de seu trabalho é na tv dirigindo episódios para séries de TV e telefilmes.
A trama aparentemente simples, parece carregar subtextos interessantes e polêmicos sobre uma possível relação incestuosa das duas irmãs. Ellen praticamente abdicou de sua vida para ser aquela que cuida da irmã, a qual não consegue se desvencilhar da vida que seu pai teve. Tudo ela quer emular a vivência que tiveram na África como trancafiar orangotangos que acabam sendo mortos em atos de fúria de Cissy. No jardim da casa enquanto corpos dos primatas estão sendo enterrados com a cumplicidade de Ellen, Cissy se entrega a birras e antigos rituais de tribos africanas para que a irmã consiga um novo Mafu com o amigo da família e criador da espécie, Zom (Will Geer). Quem se interessa por filmes de horror com abordagens psicanalíticas, The Mafu Cage é um prato cheio. É muito interessante o jogo de tensão entre as irmãs e perceber que Ellen já não aguenta mais. A irmã ouve ela confessando a Zom sobre a vontade de se entregar ao colega de trabalho que a corteja, mas tem medo de se afastar e deixar Cissy num hospício. No entanto, é justamente num momento em que Ellen se afasta para fazer uma viagem profissional que acontece o momento mais tenso e doloroso da trama: a ruptura da realidade de Cissy.
Além dessas questões de gênero, há ainda o subtexto racial, pois são duas irmãs brancas, mas uma delas a Cissy, é quem mais se apropria de elementos, ritos, rituais, maquiagens e músicas tribais de uma cultura a qual não lhe pertence, mas ela por ter crescido nesse meio, se sente inserida, acolhida e pertencente. Apesar de ficar mais à vontade com os animais, mais especificamente com seus Mafus que prende numa gaiola dentro de casa, mimada, não suporta ser contrariada e não ser atendida em suas vontades. Suas frustrações são descontadas nos pobres dos animais, coitados. É irritante em vários momentos e mesmo torcendo que ela consiga vencer essa barreira da fuga emocional, a cada minuto é nítido que ela vai se perdendo e se distanciando de atitudes mais racionais até colapsar por completo.
Tumblr media
The Mafu Cage é incrível, estranho, fascinante e eu poderia escrever aqui trezentos adjetivos para definir esse filme. Karen Arthur se dedicou com afinco na pesquisa sobre o tema de mulheres e colapso mental. Passou semanas num hospital psiquiátrico e as peças de arte que decoram a casa das irmãs, ela conseguiu emprestado em galerias de arte. Espero sinceramente que redescubram essa obra. Espero também que ouçam o programa de Jéssica e Michelle pois traz muitas referências teóricas e comentários ricos sobre o filme.
