Havia llegit la versió castellana i quan vaig veure que publicaven la versió catalana, no m'ho vaig pensar ni un minut. És un llibre revelador d'una Catalunya (que a la versió castellana insisteixen a amagar sota d'Aragó*) que no s'ajusta a les idees escampades per la pseudohistòria espanyolista que ens bombardeja cada dia.
La guerra entre el casal de Barcelona, entossudits a crear un espai català a la Mediterrània occidental i els Anjou, una branca de la corona francesa amb la intenció de posar el peu definitivament al Mediterrani per part dels francesos es barregen amb les intrigues papals i de les repúbliques del nord d'Itàlia en un conflicte permanent. Si hagués passat a Anglaterra ja faria segles que tindríem mil noveŀles i peŀlícules derivades d'aquest conflicte.
Però som catalans i Espanya amaga la nostra història.
La historiografia anglesa utilitza prioritàriament Corona d'Aragó, que reconeix, és nomenclatura construïda a posteriori dels fets ocorreguts. De totes maneres, el mateix Abulafia accepta les nomenclatures tradicionals de la historiografia catalana de fer servir Corona catalanoaragonesa, més moderna, però igualment acceptable. Dona gust que no t'escupin a la cara com solen fer els Cataluña-nunca-fue-reyno.
"The latest report released by GenCost has revealed that renewables remain the cheapest new-build electricity generation to 2050, even if they were to be rebuilt every 25 or 30 years.
GenCost, the annual collaboration between CSIRO and the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO), is used as a standardised measure by industry for forward planning and to assess the most economically viable investment opportunities."
"CSIRO and AEMO considered the claims about the life of nuclear reactors and capacity factors, rejecting the claim that these factors make nuclear cheaper.
The report found that renewables remain the cheapest new-build electricity generation in Australia to 2050, both as standalone assets and when also accounting for the required storage, transmission and firming."

The great tragedy of what humanity is doing, on a global scale, is that we are wasting time. Wasting precious human and non-human lives, wasting time we can never get back. Allowing billionaires to feed off of our lives to grow their power. Allowing them to sacrifice the planet.
Isn't every human being just sick and tired of the rich and powerful wasting what little time we have in our lives with their greed, hatred, and ignorance? Their obsession with power and money at the cost of lives, at the cost of the habitability of the planet? Enough! Enough!

The image features a graphic design with a dark red background that resembles a splash of liquid. In the center, there is a stylized illustration of a wine glass filled with red wine, with a white frothy top. The glass is depicted with a smooth, glossy surface, reflecting light, and has a classic stem and bowl shape. To the right of the wine glass, the text "WINE HQ" is prominently displayed in white capital letters, with the "H" in "HQ" superscripted, indicating a brand or logo. The overall composition is simple yet elegant, focusing on the wine glass and the text, with the red background enhancing the visual appeal.

To enhance WordPress comment functionality, consider replacing comments with Webmentions for better engagement and reduced spam. If using comments, enable them selectively, add spam protection, disable nested comments, and introduce moderator roles. Addit
Everyone seems to agree that in an ideal WordPress world, comments would be disabled by default. I believe a better ideal of convivial commentscan be realized. We can make comments better with webmentions and customizations to keep our feedback human, healthy, and manageable.
Webmentions are a newer, better alternative to pingbacks and trackbacks. (You’re unlikely to get spam links from a webmention.) If something you’ve published gets linked to by another cool person using software that supports the webmentions protocol, you’ll get a “mention” that appears in the WordPress comment manager alongside the pings, trackbacks, and regular comments unless you’ve disabled those.
How to set up comments, if you must!
If you enable comments anywhere, here are the additional settings and customizations that will help you maximize good outcomes and mitigate the most horrible but common things humans and machines always do with comment forms.
Enable comments only where (and when) they are needed. Just because you use comments doesn’t mean you want them everywhere. It would be nice to have a global setting in WordPress to enable or disable comments per content type, especially if custom post types are being used. By default WordPress allows you to activate comments per post or page (and potentially other content types) in their individual discussion settings but not globally. There are some plugins that do this but not ones I want to recommend. You can find code snippets and examples to learn how to do this very simply with a custom function or plugin.
You should also make use of the global Discussion Settings in WordPress that define a period of time for comments to be enabled on a newly published item. Unless you’re writing a lot of evergreen content, why would a legitimate commenter show up with something useful to say a year after you publish something? (It would be nice to have this expiration feature variable per post type or individual content item too.)
Enable a spam blocker. If comments are enabled anywhere and anonymous visitors (or bots) can leave them, you need spam protection. There are some simple and foolproof antispam techniques everyone should use. Take a look at Gulshan Kumar‘s Forget Comment Spam plugin.
Disable nested comments. You don’t need nested or “threaded” comments if you’re not Reddit or Slack. (Consider P2 or bbPress or anything else before using them.) If you allow random people to reply specifically to other commenters, this opens up all kinds of trouble. You’re replicating Twitter and forum-style features with little or no protection. You should not do this without a login-to-comment requirement and/or active moderation.
Enable private comments. Let commenters define the scope of their audience and answerability. Not all comments need to be for everyone. If commenters can identify their message and intentions as private, they may communicate more comfortably with the author of the item being commented on, or to site admins, etc. The Private Comments plugin achieves this. CommentXpert is a new, little-used plugin I’ve never heard of that has a lot of features on this list and then some, including private comments that can be made public by admins.
Restrict comments and commenting privileges by role. This is a novel idea that might make sense for certain community sites. Comments can be semi-private if they are readable and/or writeable to logged-in users in or above a certain role group. There’s an old WordPress StackXchange thread suggesting some ways to achieve this. The code examples there could probably use some updating and rethinking. 🤔
Now let’s think about the back-end interface or “wp-admin” if you have multiple users operating there and a lot of commenters to deal with.
Create a Moderator role. The Moderator role is the only role that has access to the comment controls in wp-admin and receives comment notifications by default. A Subscriber, Contributor, Author, Editor, or Administrator would have to be assigned a secondary Moderator role for the privilege of being bothered with comments.
Give Moderators nice comment notification emails with actionable links. See the Comment Approval Notifications plugin by Kaspars Dambis. Note: By default, WordPress sends its mail through the PHP user via [url=https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php]mail()[/url] as it’s used by [url=https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_mail/]wp_mail()[/url] by default. Take care to configure this approach properly or use alternative methods, like SMTP or an external mail platform. Many managed hosts provide alternatives.
A lot of good things become possible and easier if most commenters are known, logged-in users whose identity (and maybe more) is federated and available for use across any/all platforms. Consider taking the time to set up…
Single-sign on (SSO) with many platforms or (even better) a Federated Identity Management (FIM) system, like Gravatar.
As an alternative or fallback, why not…
Simple, lightweight HTML/CSS avatars with the commenters’ initials and a unique background colour if there’s no Gravatar connected to their email address, or if Gravatars are disabled. There are several plugins that do this; it’s a pretty old but not commonly used on WordPress sites.
Ten more things you can do to make comments better.
Finally, here is a cluster of comment interface features that introduce feedback and simple automations to discourage abuse:
Visitors can vote comments up or down. This just provides some social feedback, but if the downvotes reach a certain threshhold, moderators
Visitors can report comments.
A specified number of downvotes triggers moderation rules and/or notifications.
Enable comment throttling for 5 minutes if 5 comments have been submitted within the past 5 minutes by fewer than 5 commenters. (Something like that.)
Option to prevent the last commenter from commenting again until someone else has commented or 24 hours have passed.
Commenter-submitted “Website” field disabled by default.
There are default, variable minimum and maximum lengths for comments.
HTML and/or Markdown allowed with a preview.
No refresh necessary after commenting to see the result.
Optionally redirect after comment submission to an arbitrary URL. (This might be a good place for some friction and creative redirection.)
Comments are editable by the commenter within a set time limit after they are published/ (Requires comment cookies or only applies long-term to comments that belong to known/logged-in users.)
There are a number of good points in there, that really deserve more space.
I’ll start with the one I disagree with: 3. Disable nested comments. I think comment nesting can be useful for signifying who is being replied to.
4. Enable private comments, this is something I experimented with using activitypub. Currently received activitypub replies/comments without a public scope are dropped. I played around with the inbox hook to allow incoming DM’s, these too have since been announced as part of the 2025 roadmap.
5-7 basically all touch on moderation, and this is one of the points I’m excited about, since the latest plugin release has brought user account level control over blocking, muting

Another day, another utterly shameful cruelty against refugees announced. Recognised refugees - so people granted the long term right to stay in the UK because they have escaped real danger - will face new barriers to reuniting with spouses & children safely in the UK #r4todat
There was a time not long ago, when the idea of a Labour government deliberately acting to keep families of recognised refugees apart, would have been unthinkable. The same week masked men tried to break in to asylum seeker accommodation, presumably with violent intent #r4today
And we get the absolute pleasure of hearing from intellectual half pint Chris Philp 🙄 Guess what he reckons? Oh he’s not asked about the rights & wrongs of family reunion. He wants to froth on about foreign peadophiles instead, because that where our conversation is 🤦♀️ #r4today
Why bother with a discussion of what family reunion actually is & an analysis of the impact of changes with, say, @ramfel.bsky.social who recently published an excellent report excoriating the system’s EXISTING failures that keep families apart? Nah. It’s #r4today🤷♀️ www.ramfel.org.uk/family-reuni...
Our report, Safe Routes to Nowhere: The UK’s Broken Promises on Family Reunion, is the result of nearly 2.5 years of work, drawing on RAMFEL’s casework experience and government data on family reunion applications and appeals.
The likely impact of introducing even more barriers to safe family reunification for refugees is that MORE people will instead take dangerous smugglers’ routes to reunite with their loved ones. & then Labour, Tories & Reform can demonise THEM on #r4today too. Yay.

The image is a black and white cartoon depicting two men sitting on a bench in a park on a rainy day, with the date "1 september 2025" at the top. The man on the left is wearing a hat and a suit, and he is speaking, saying, "De bomen laten hun blad al vallen, dus ik wil ook mijn herfstdepressie vervroegen." The man on the right is wearing glasses and a hat, and he is responding, "Oké, dan sluiten we uw zomerdip af." The background shows trees with leaves falling, indicating autumn, and the ground is wet from the rain. The overall tone of the image is humorous, highlighting the men's attempt to cope with seasonal changes.

Israelisch staatsaccount roept op tot vernietiging moslims in Europa. Natuurlijk hoef je van Nederland niets te verwachten. Die zijn het ermee eens. Godsdienstvrijheid? My ass!
The image is a screenshot of a social media post with a blue header and white text. The header reads "ACTUEEL" in white letters on a blue background. Below the header, the main text in white on a blue background states: "Israëlsch staatssaccount roept op tot vernietiging van Europese moslims." The post includes a screenshot of a social media post in Arabic, with a caption in Dutch below it. The Dutch text describes the post as a call for the destruction of European mosques and the "fifth column" of Muslims, expressing concern about the message's hatefulness and potential for violence. The post has received 652 likes, 55 comments, 39 shares, and 372 retweets. The text below the screenshot explains that the message was posted on an official Israeli state account, raising concerns about the impact on European citizens' fundamental rights and social cohesion. It also mentions the involvement of foreign interference and calls for the Dutch government to condemn the action and hold the Israeli embassy accountable.
