Throwing children in prison to help families. A proposal for Nordio and also for Roccella

The expansion of juvenile detention centres, however, is the Meloni government’s first proposal to boost the birth rate. Prison is also much cheaper than a babysitter, and even makes up for the possible absence, distance or unavailability of grandparents.

The editor-in-chief has called for an end to repeated appeals, arguing that young readers are becoming increasingly disengaged; he suggests they would be better served by seeking more stimulating forms of leisure.

The boredom that used to be found only in the provinces is now spreading to the big cities too: places that are closing down or where nothing ever happens, with social life that is lacklustre, if not non-existent. People go out of their way to find entertainment

From Crosetto to Mancini, our problem is always the defence: Calafiori needs to learn how to shoot

Let us enlist Kayode and Pio Esposito; they can set aside their football boots and participate in this ‘world cup’ (meaning the Third World War). We will remain here, comfortably waving our flags—or Conte’s white pocket square.

Dear unreliable girl, I shall console your heart, broken by Tajani’s son

You can dress however you like; after all, whatever you wear is merely a superfluous adornment that I hope you will wish to remove as soon as possible. Open letter

So, is artificial intelligence dangerous? Let’s ask ChatGPT

Your closest friends are planting bombs outside your house, let alone machines whose only connection to a mother is a circuit board. What other prophet of doom must come along to sound the trumpet and make us realise that we need to enjoy ourselves whilst it lasts?

Films that are too long – you have to know when to cut: in art as in life

Personalised tickets, meticulously crafted masks, a couple of kicks at the ball, the celebrations and the VIP area. Venetian scenes that have been left out of the daily news reports

At last, people can dance in Venice without breaking a sweat.

Cold and rainy weather has accompanied the Festival as it draws to a close. However, participants have managed to secure meals, despite the challenges posed by inflation and ongoing conflicts.
