Oxford UniversityPress has announced its Word of the year: RIZZ.
Possibly short for ‘charisma,’ RIZZ seems to encapsulate elements of personality like style and swagger, and is said to reflect a post-covid energetic, positive attitude. It is a Generation Z expression meaning “style, charm, attractiveness, and the ability to attract a romantic or sexual partner.”
Rizz named word of the year 2023 by Oxford University PressSlang word for charisma beat "Swiftie" and "situationship" in Oxford dictionary award.www.bbc.com -
Dia shopping report: went to 2 Dia stores on Scalabrini Ortiz, but no one at either store had heard of Mumm in latas. Nor did anyone in either store know where there was another Dia store in any direction. So we came home and consoled ourselves with a nice cold bottle of Nieto Senetiner extra brut. (This IS the booze/boozers thread, right?)

She clearly has a lot to lose if Elon succeeds in taking the company down the tubes. But the average employee is undoubtedly looking for the exit lights.

It has always struck me as strange that so many grocery stores, cinemas, ice cream shops, and restaurants have had sweetheart deals with certain credit cards on certain days, offering sometimes as much as 40% off if you pay with those cards. Meanwhile, although it is cheaper for merchants to take cash, there are rarely cash discounts. And now, they are starting to add a “convenience charge” if you pay with a credit card, but still no acknowledgement that you are saving them money if you fork out pesos.

As a reason given for last week’s fall in the blue dollar rates, I read a reference to “pesos badly needed for end of month govt payments,” but there was no further explanation.
Others on this forum are much more plugged in to the govt finance scene than I am. Explanations?

Not really an opinion one way or the other. I’m just always sceptical of internet news, and want to know the potential biases behind it.

I’m going to run over to Dia and snag a couple of cans. Thanks!

Another reason to love the public transportation in a city, for those of us who don't have to have a car. We'd never be able to figure out the intricacies of purchasing a car here - - and then, there's the DRIVING.... Mama Mia.

I want to try it! Have been reading about pro and con arguments on wine in cans.
GlasgowJohn , When did the Dia sale start, and how long will it run?

I so wish the people here could have access to clothing that is well made, appliances that actually last for a few years, etc. You are right: it won't happen overnight, but at least now there is reason to hope.

I applaud Greta for at least calling attention to our wanton treatment of the earth, which has been good to us!
We certainly don't return the favor.

I'm curious about the owners of mondoweiss.net.

What a show! I guess they didn't mind that heavy rain.

Great description of Buenos Aires! I wish we could get NADA, but will just have to wait and hope maybe Netflix will eventually buy the rights to it. For now, we're with Robert DeNiro!

But some of this has been published in the media
Usually with a ''I'm led to believe''.
