I felt that merely listing the Dacian toponyms isn’t doing anybody any favours. Much like most people didn’t know about the Dacian treasures until they were stolen, I suspect that most Romanians don’t know where the rivers are unless they see them on a map.

A more recent, newer list of likely Dacian words is an opportunity to look back at a few issues with Meta Marioara.

Someone asked for my help in finding occupational therapists in Bucharest who speak English and can work with someone in Toronto online.

Not long ago, a controversy that’s still somewhat alive erupted over Olympic swimming champion David Popovici decision to “live the dream” and buy himself a Porsche Spyder. While I have no right to criticize him, I summarize a few opinions in the mass-media and add my own.

Inspired by the multiple suggestions of great monologues in English, I was up to no good searching for the same in Romanian. I’ve gotten a few, but at least at first, they’re mostly hallucinations.

I present a conversation I had on Facebook with a protochronist lady; it’s an opportunity to recap some of my older articles on Dacians and Dacia and introduce a new hope (not the old one ).

Now that most stock markets plummeted on Friday, it is about time to complete my overview of how investing is reflected in Romanian mass media. Whereas before the pandemic lockdown most articles were asking “why aren’t Romanians investing”, thereafter we have a lot of reports of investments doubling every year.

As bitcoin is was plunging, it’s a good idea to look at how Romanians invest and financial literacy in general, while it hurts to own and before it jumps back up. We only have time to take a quick look at real estate as an alternative to crypto.

Spurred by an acquaintance's insistent, fervent appeals to learn Esperanto, I’ve decided to look at other languages that are more equally “learnable” by both Europeans and East Asians. As luck would have it, I’ve decided to look at the Romani, rromani or Gipsy language.

Babardeala cu bucluc / Loony Porn is a movie meant to shock the viewer into understanding that there are far worse ethical lapses that we accept on a daily basis than the porn between married people and other NSFW material we generally consider below us. We discuss the movie in detail so a spoiler alert is necessary, and if you plan to watch it (you might as well), make sure you have the subtitles on for part II at least.

A recent loss in court of a serious academic who may have produced some important, original research, contrasts dramatically with an astonishing win of a less important plagiarizer, whose scientific contributions are null / #zerobarat.
