A atriz e apresentadora fala sobre família, religião, casamento e conta pra qual de seus tantos amigos ligaria de uma ilha deserta Regina Casé bem que tentou não comemorar seu aniversário de 71 anos, celebrado no dia 25 de fevereiro. Mas o que seria um açaí com pôr do sol na varanda do Hotel Arpoador se transformou em um samba que só terminou às 11 horas da noite em respeito à lei do silêncio. "Eu não ia fazer nada, nada, nada mesmo. Mas é meio impossível, porque todo mundo fala: vou passar aí, vou te dar um beijo", contou em um papo com Paulo Lima. A atriz e apresentadora tem esse talento extraordinário pra reunir as pessoas mais interessantes à sua volta. E isso vale para seu círculo de amigos, que inclui personalidades ilustres como Caetano Veloso e Fernanda Torres, e também para os projetos que inventa na televisão, no teatro e no cinema. Inventar tanta coisa nova é uma vocação que ela herdou do pai e do avô, pioneiros no rádio e na televisão, mas também uma necessidade. “Nunca consegui pensar individualmente, e isso até hoje me atrapalha. Mas, ao mesmo tempo, eu tive que ser tão autoral. Eu não ia ser a mocinha na novela, então inventei um mundo para mim. Quase tudo que fiz fui eu que tive a ideia, juntei um grupo, a gente escreveu junto”, afirma. No teatro, ao lado de artistas como o diretor Hamilton Vaz Pereira e os atores Luiz Fernando Guimarães e Patrícia Travassos, ela inventou o grupo Asdrúbal Trouxe o Trombone, que revolucionou a cena carioca nos anos 1970. Na televisão, fez programas como TV Pirata, Programa Legal e Brasil Legal. "Aquilo tudo não existia, mas eu tive que primeiro inventar para poder me jogar ali”, conta. LEIA TAMBÉM: Em 1999, Regina Casé estampou as Páginas Negras da Trip De volta aos cinemas brasileiros no fim de março com Dona Lurdes: O Filme, produção inspirada em sua personagem na novela Amor de Mãe (2019), Regina bateu um papo com Paulo Lima no Trip FM. Na conversa, ela fala do orgulho de ter vindo de uma família que, com poucos recursos e sem faculdade, foi pioneira em profissões que ainda nem tinham nome, do título de “brega” que recebeu quando sua originalidade ainda não era compreendida pelas colunas sociais, de sua relação com a religião, da dificuldade de ficar sozinha – afinal, “a sua maior qualidade é sempre o seu maior defeito” –, do casamento de 28 anos com o cineasta Estêvão Ciavatta, das intempéries e milagres que experimentou e de tudo o que leva consigo. “Eu acho que você tem que ir pegando da vida, que nem a Dona Darlene do Eu Tu Eles, que ficou com os três maridos”, afirma. “A vida vai passando e você vai guardando as coisas que foram boas e tentando se livrar das ruins”. Uma das figuras mais admiradas e admiráveis do país, ela ainda revela para quem ligaria de uma ilha deserta e mostra o presente de aniversário que ganhou da amiga Fernanda Montenegro. Você pode conferir esse papo a seguir ou ouvir no Spotify do Trip FM.

Além de atriz, você é apresentadora, humorista, escritora, pensadora, criadora, diretora… Acho que tem a ver com uma certa modernidade que você carrega, essa coisa de transitar por 57 planetas diferentes. Como é que você se apresentaria se tivesse que preencher aquelas fichas antigas de hotel? Regina Casé. Até hoje ponho atriz em qualquer coisa que tenho que preencher, porque acho a palavra bonita. E é como eu, vamos dizer, vim ao mundo. As outras coisas todas vieram depois. Mesmo quando eu estava há muito tempo sem atuar, eu era primeiramente uma atriz. E até hoje me sinto uma atriz que apresenta programas, uma atriz que dirige, uma atriz que escreve, mas uma atriz. Você falou numa entrevista que, se for ver, você continua fazendo o mesmo trabalho. De alguma maneira, o programa Brasil Legal, a Val de "Que Horas Ela Volta", o grupo de teatro "Asdrúbal Trouxe o Trombone" ou agora esse programa humorístico tem a mesma essência, um eixo que une tudo isso. Encontrei entrevistas e vídeos maravilhosos seus, um lá no Asdrúbal, todo mundo com cara de quem acabou de sair da praia, falando umas coisas muito descontraídas e até mais, digamos assim, sóbrias. E tem um Roda Viva seu incrível, de 1998. Eu morro de pena, porque também o teatro que a gente fazia, a linguagem que a gente usava no Asdrúbal, era tão nova que não conseguiu ser decodificada naquela época. Porque deveria estar sendo propagada pela internet, só que não havia internet. A gente não tem registros, não filmava, só fotografava. Comprava filme, máquina, pagava pro irmão do amigo fazer aquilo no quarto de serviço da casa dele, pequenininho, com uma luz vermelha. Só que ele não tinha grana, então comprava pouco fixador, pouco revelador, e dali a meses aquilo estava apagado. Então, os documentos que a gente tem no Asdrúbal são péssimos. Fico vendo as pouquíssimas coisas guardadas e que foram para o YouTube, como essa entrevista do Roda Viva. Acho que não passa quatro dias sem que alguém me mande um corte. "Ah, você viu isso? Adorei!". Ontem o DJ Zé Pedro me mandou um TED que eu fiz, talvez o primeiro. E eu pensei: "Puxa, eu falei isso, que ótimo, concordo com tudo". Quanta coisa já mudou no Brasil, isso é anterior a tudo, dois mil e pouquinho. E eu fiquei encantada com o Roda Viva, eu era tão novinha. Acho que não mudei nada. Quando penso em mim com cinco anos de idade, andando com a minha avó na rua, a maneira como eu olhava as pessoas, como eu olhava o mundo, é muito semelhante, se não igual, a hoje em dia. [VIDEO=https://www.youtube.com/embed/rLoqGPGmVdo; CREDITS=; LEGEND=Em 1998, aos 34 anos, Regina Casé foi entrevistada pelo programa Roda Viva, da TV Cultura; IMAGE=https://revistatrip.uol.com.br/upload/2025/03/67d49b0ede6d3/1057x749x960x540x52x40/screen-shot-2025-03-14-at-180926.png] O Boni, que foi entrevistado recentemente no Trip FM, fala sobre seu pai em seu último livro, “Lado B do Boni”, como uma das pessoas que compuseram o que ele é, uma figura que teve uma relevância muito grande, inclusive na TV Globo. Conta um pouco quem foi o seu pai, Regina. Acho que não há Wikipedia que possa resgatar o tamanho do meu pai e do meu avô. Meu avô é pioneiríssimo do rádio, teve um dos primeiros programas de rádio, se não o primeiro. Ele nasceu em Belo Jardim, uma cidadezinha do agreste pernambucano, do sertão mesmo. E era brabo, criativo demais, inteligente demais, e, talvez por isso tudo, impaciente demais, não aguentava esperar ninguém terminar uma frase. Ele veio daquele clássico, com uma mão na frente e outra atrás, sem nada, e trabalhou na estiva, dormiu na rua até começar a carregar rádios. Só que, nos anos 20, 30, rádios eram um armário de madeira bem grandão. Daí o cara viu que ele era esperto e botou ele para instalar os rádios na casa das pessoas. Quando meu avô descobriu que ninguém sabia sintonizar, que era difícil, ele aprendeu. E aí ele deixava os rádios em consignação, botava um paninho com um vasinho em cima, sintonizado, funcionando. Quando ele ia buscar uma semana depois, qualquer um comprava. Aí ele disparou como vendedor dos rádios desse cara que comprava na gringa e começou a ficar meio sócio do negócio. [QUOTE=1218] Mas a programação toda era gringa, em outras línguas. Ele ficava fascinado, mas não entendia nada do que estava rolando ali. Nessa ele descobriu que tinha que botar um conteúdo ali dentro, porque aquele da gringa não estava suprindo a necessidade. Olha como é parecido com a internet hoje em dia. E aí ele foi sozinho, aquele nordestino, bateu na Philips e falou que queria comprar ondas curtas, não sei que ondas, e comprou. Aí ele ia na farmácia Granado e falava: "Se eu fizer um reclame do seu sabão, você me dá um dinheiro para pagar o pianista?". Sabe quem foram os dois primeiros contratados dele? O contrarregra era o Noel Rosa, e a única cantora que ele botou de exclusividade era a Carmen Miranda. Foram os primeiros empregos de carteira assinada. E aí o programa cresceu. Começava de manhã, tipo programa do Silvio, e ia até de noite. Chamava Programa Casé. E o seu pai? Meu avô viveu aquela era de ouro do rádio. Quando sentiu que o negócio estava ficando estranho, ele, um cara com pouquíssimos recursos de educação formal, pegou meu pai e falou: "vai para os Estados Unidos porque o negócio agora vai ser televisão". Ele fez um curso, incipiente, para entender do que se tratava. Voltou e montou o primeiro programa de televisão feito aqui no Rio de Janeiro, Noite de Gala. Então, tem uma coisa de pioneirismo tanto no rádio quanto na televisão. E meu pai sempre teve um interesse gigante na educação, como eu. Esse interesse veio de onde? Uma das coisas que constituem o DNA de tudo o que fiz, dos meus programas, é a educação. Um Pé de Quê, no Futura, o Brasil Legal e o Programa Legal, na TV Globo… Eu sou uma professora, fico tentando viver as duas coisas juntas. O meu pai tinha isso porque esse meu avô Casé era casado com a Graziela Casé, uma professora muito, mas muito idealista, vocacionada e apaixonada. Ela trabalhou com Anísio Teixeira, Cecília Meireles, fizeram a primeira biblioteca infantil. Meu pai fez o Sítio do Picapau Amarelo acho que querendo honrar essa professora, a mãe dele. Quando eu era menina, as pessoas vinham de uma situação rural trabalhar como domésticas, e quase todas, se não todas, eram analfabetas. A minha avó as ensinava a ler e escrever. Ela dizia: "Se você conhece uma pessoa que não sabe ler e escrever e não ensina para ela, é um crime". Eu ficava até apavorada, porque ela falava muito duramente. Eu acho que sou feita desse pessoal. Tenho muito orgulho de ter vindo de uma família que, sem recursos, sem universidade, foi pioneira na cidade, no país e em suas respectivas... Não digo “profissões” porque ainda nem existiam suas profissões. Eu tento honrar.

Além de ter preparo e talento, você tem uma vocação para aglutinar, juntar a galera, fazer time. Por outro lado, tem essa coisa da atriz, que é diferente, talvez um pouco mais para dentro. Você funciona melhor sozinha ou como uma espécie de capitã, técnica e jogadora do time? Eu nasci atriz dentro de um grupo. E o Asdrúbal trouxe o Trombone não era só um grupo. Apesar do Hamilton Vaz Pereira ter sido sempre um autor e um diretor, a gente criava coletivamente, escrevia coletivamente, improvisava. Nunca consegui pensar individualmente, e isso até hoje é uma coisa que me atrapalha. Todo mundo fala: "escreve um livro". Eu tenho vontade, mas falo que para escrever um livro preciso de umas 10 pessoas de público, todo mundo junto. Sou tão grupal que é difícil. Ao mesmo tempo, eu tive que ser muito autoral. Eu, Tu, Eles foi a primeira vez que alguém me tirou para dançar. Antes eu fiz participações em muitos filmes, mas foi a primeira protagonista. Quase tudo que fiz fui eu que tive a ideia, juntei um grupo, a gente escreveu junto. Então, eu sempre inventei um mundo para mim. No teatro eu não achava lugar para mim, então tive que inventar um, que era o Asdrúbal. Quando eu era novinha e fui para a televisão, eu não ia ser a mocinha na novela. Então fiz a TV Pirata, o Programa Legal, o Brasil Legal. Aquilo tudo não existia na televisão, mas eu tive que primeiro inventar para poder me jogar ali. Eu sempre me acostumei não a mandar, mas a ter total confiança de me jogar. E nos trabalhos de atriz, como é? No Asdrúbal eu me lembro que uma vez eu virei umas três noites fazendo roupa de foca, que era de pelúcia, e entupia o gabinete na máquina. Eu distribuía filipeta, colava cartaz, pregava cenário na parede. Tudo, todo mundo fazia tudo. É difícil quando eu vou para uma novela e não posso falar que aquele figurino não tem a ver com a minha personagem, que essa casa está muito chique para ela ou acho que aqui no texto, se eu falasse mais normalzão, ia ficar mais legal. Mas eu aprendi. Porque também tem autores e autores. Eu fiz três novelas com papéis de maior relevância. Cambalacho, em que fiz a Tina Pepper, um personagem coadjuvante que ganhou a novela. Foi ao ar em 1986 e até hoje tem gente botando a dancinha e a música no YouTube, cantando. Isso também, tá vendo? É pré-internet e recebo cortes toda hora, porque aquilo já tinha cara de internet. Depois a Dona Lurdes, de Amor de Mãe, e a Zoé, de Todas as Flores. Uma é uma menina preta da periferia de São Paulo. A outra uma mulher nordestina do sertão, com cinco filhos. A terceira é uma truqueira carioca rica que morava na Barra. São três universos, mas as três foram muito fortes. Tenho muito orgulho dessas novelas. Mas quando comecei, pensei: "Gente, como é que vai ser?". Não é o meu programa. Não posso falar que a edição está lenta, que devia apertar. O começo foi difícil, mas depois que peguei a manha de ser funcionária, fazer o meu e saber que não vou ligar para o cenário, para o figurino, para a comida e não sei o quê, falei: "Isso aqui, perto de fazer um programa como o Esquenta ou o Programa Legal, é como férias no Havaí". Você é do tipo que não aguenta ficar sozinha ou você gosta da sua companhia? Essa é uma coisa que venho perseguindo há alguns anos. Ainda estou assim: sozinha, sabendo que, se quiser, tem alguém ali. Mas ainda apanho muito para ficar sozinha porque, justamente, a sua maior qualidade é sempre o seu maior defeito. Fui criada assim, em uma família que eram três filhas, uma mãe e uma tia. Cinco mulheres num apartamento relativamente pequeno, um banheiro, então uma está escovando os dentes, outra está fazendo xixi, outra está tomando banho, todas no mesmo horário para ir para a escola. Então é muito difícil para mim ficar sozinha, mas tenho buscado muito. Quando falam "você pode fazer um pedido", eu peço para ter mais paciência e para aprender a ficar sozinha. Você contou agora há pouco que fazia figurinos lá no Asdrúbal e também já vi você falando que sempre aparecia na lista das mais mal vestidas do Brasil. Como é ser julgada permanentemente? Agora já melhorou, mas esse é um aspecto que aparece mais porque existe uma lista de “mais mal vestidas". Se existisse lista para outras transgressões, eu estaria em todas elas. Não só porque sou transgressora, mas porque há uma demanda que eu seja. Quando não sou, o pessoal até estranha. Eu sempre gostei muito de moda, mais que isso, de me expressar através das roupas. E isso saía muito do padrão, principalmente na televisão, do blazer salmão, do nude, da unha com misturinha, do cabelo com escova. Volta e meia vinha, nos primórdios das redes sociais: "Ela não tem dinheiro para fazer uma escova naquele cabelo?". "Não tem ninguém para botar uma roupa normal nela?". [IMAGE=https://revistatrip.uol.com.br/upload/2025/03/67d49c62141c1/header-regina-interna4.jpg; CREDITS=Christian Gaul; LEGEND=Regina Casé falou à Trip em 1999, quando estampou as Páginas Negras; ALT_TEXT=] Antes da internet, existiam muitas colunas sociais em jornal. Tinha um jornalista no O Globo que me detonava uma semana sim e outra não. Eu nunca vou me esquecer. Ele falava de uma bolsa que eu tinha da Vivienne Westwood, que inclusive juntei muito para poder comprar. Eu era apaixonada por ela, que além de tudo era uma ativista, uma mulher importantíssima na gênese do Sex Pistols e do movimento punk. Ele falava o tempo todo: "Estava não sei onde e veio a Regina com aquela bolsa horrorosa que comprou no Saara". O Saara no Rio corresponde à 25 de março em São Paulo, e são lugares que sempre frequentei, que amo e que compro bolsas também. Eu usava muito torço no cabelo, e ele escrevia: "Lá vem a lavadeira do Abaeté". Mais uma vez, não só sendo preconceituoso, mas achando que estava me xingando de alguma coisa que eu acharia ruim. Eu pensava: nossa, que maravilha, estou parecendo uma lavadeira do Abaeté e não alguém com um blazer salmão, com uma blusa bege, uma bolsa arrumadinha de marca. Pra mim era elogio, mas era chato, porque cria um estigma. E aí um monte de gente, muito burra, vai no rodo e fala: "Ela é cafona, ela é horrorosa". Por isso que acho que fiquei muito tempo nessas listas. O filme “Ainda Estou Aqui” está sendo um alento para o Brasil, uma coisa bem gostosa de ver, uma obra iluminada. A Fernanda Torres virou uma espécie de embaixadora do Brasil, falando de uma forma muito legal sobre o país, sobre a cultura. Imagino que pra você, que vivenciou essa época no Rio de Janeiro, seja ainda mais especial. Eu vivi aquela época toda e o filme, mesmo sem mostrar a tortura e as barbaridades que aconteceram, reproduz a angústia. Na parte em que as coisas não estão explicitadas, você só percebe que algo está acontecendo, e a angústia que vem dali. Mesmo depois, quando alguma coisa concreta aconteceu, você não sabe exatamente do que está com medo, o que pode acontecer a qualquer momento, porque tudo era tão aleatório, sem justificativa, ninguém era processado, julgado e preso. O filme reproduz essa sensação, mesmo para quem não viveu. É maravilhoso, maravilhoso. [QUOTE=1219] Não vou dizer que por sorte porque ele tem todos os méritos, mas o filme caiu num momento em que a gente estava muito sofrido culturalmente. Nós, artistas, tínhamos virado bandidos, pessoas que se aproveitam. Eu nunca usei a lei Rouanet, ainda que ache ela muito boa, mas passou-se a usar isso quase como um xingamento, de uma maneira horrível. E todos os artistas muito desrespeitados, inclusive a própria Fernanda, Fernandona, a pessoa que a gente mais tem que respeitar na cultura do país. O filme veio não como uma revanche. Ele veio doce, suave e brilhantemente cuidar dessa ferida. Na equipe tenho muitos amigos, praticamente família, o Walter, a Nanda, a Fernanda. Sou tão amiga da Fernanda quanto da Nanda, sou meio mãe da Nanda, mas sou meio filha da Fernanda, sou meio irmã da Nanda e também da Fernanda. É bem misturado, e convivo muito com as duas. Por acaso, recebi ontem um presente e um cartão de aniversário da Fernandona que é muito impressionante. Tão bonitinho, acho que ela não vai ficar brava se eu mostrar para vocês. O que o cartão diz? Ela diz assim: "Regina, querida, primeiro: meu útero sabe que a Nanda já está com esse Oscar”. Adorei essa frase. "Segundo, estou trabalhando demais, está me esgotando. Teria uma leitura de 14 trechos magníficos, de acadêmicos, que estou preparando essa apresentação para a abertura da Academia [Brasileira de Letras], que está em recesso. O esgotamento acho que é por conta dos quase 100 anos que tenho". Imagina... Com esse trabalho todo. Aí ela faz um desenho lindo de flores com o coração: "Regina da nossa vida, feliz aniversário, feliz sempre da Fernanda". E me manda uma toalhinha bordada lindíssima com um PS: "Fernando [Torres] e eu compramos essa toalhinha de mão no Nordeste numa das temporadas de nossa vida pelo Brasil afora. Aliás, nós comprávamos muito lembranças como essa. Essa que eu lhe envio está até manchadinha, mas ela está feliz porque está indo para a pessoa certa. Está manchadinha porque está guardadinha faz muitos anos". Olha que coisa. Como é que essa mulher com quase 100 anos, com a filha indicada ao Oscar, trabalhando desse jeito, decorando 14 textos, tem tempo de ser tão amorosa, gentil, generosa e me fazer chorar? Não existe. Ela é maravilhosa demais. [IMAGE=https://revistatrip.uol.com.br/upload/2025/03/67d49b9f0f548/header-regina-interna3.jpg; CREDITS=João Pedro Januário; LEGEND=; ALT_TEXT=] Eu queria te ouvir sobre outro assunto. Há alguns anos a menopausa era um tema absolutamente proibido. As mulheres se sentiam mal, os homens, então, saíam correndo. Os médicos não falavam, as famílias não falavam. E é engraçado essa coisa do pêndulo. De repente vira uma onda, artistas falando, saem dezenas de livros sobre o assunto. Como foi para você? Você acha que estamos melhorando na maneira de lidar com as nossas questões enquanto humanidade? É bem complexo. Tem aspectos que acho que estão melhorando muito. Qualquer família que tinha uma pessoa com deficiência antigamente escondia essa pessoa, ela era quase trancada num quarto, onde nem as visitas da casa iam. E hoje em dia todas essas pessoas estão expostas, inclusive ao preconceito e ao sofrimento, mas estão na vida, na rua. Há um tempo não só não podia ter um casal gay casado como não existia nem a expressão "casal gay", porque as pessoas no máximo tinham um caso escondido com outra pessoa. Então em muitos aspectos a gente avançou bastante. Não sei se é porque agora estou ficando bem mais velha, mas acho que esse assunto do etarismo está chegando ainda de uma maneira muito nichada. Se você for assistir a esse meu primeiro TED, eu falo que a gente não pode pegar e repetir, macaquear as coisas dos Estados Unidos. Essa ideia de grupo de apoio. Sinto que essa coisa da menopausa, do etarismo, fica muito de mulher para mulher, um grupo de mulheres daquela idade. Mas não acho que isso faz um garoto de 16 anos entender que eu, uma mulher de 70 anos, posso gostar de basquete, de funk, de sambar, de namorar, de dançar. Isso tudo fica numa bolha bem impermeável. E não acho que a comunicação está indo para outros lados. É mais você, minha amiga, que também está sentindo calores. [QUOTE=1220] Tem uma coisa americana que inventaram que é muito chata. Por exemplo, a terceira idade. Aí vai ter um baile, um monte de velhinhos e velhinhas dançando todos juntos. Claro que é melhor do que ficar em casa deprimido, mas é chato. Acho que essa festa tem que ter todo mundo. Tem que ter os gays, as crianças, todo mundo nessa mesma pista com um DJ bom, com uma batucada boa. Senão você vai numa festa e todas as pessoas são idênticas. Você vai em um restaurante e tem um aquário onde põem as crianças dentro de um vidro enquanto você come. Mas a criança tem que estar na mesa ouvindo o que você está falando, comendo um troço que ela não come normalmente. O menu kids é uma aberração. Os meus filhos comem tudo, qualquer coisa que estiver na mesa, do jeito que for. Mas é tudo separado. Essa coisa de imitar americano, entendeu? Então, acho que essa coisa da menopausa está um pouco ali. Tem que abrir para a gente conversar, tem que falar sobre menopausa com o MC Cabelinho. Eu passei meio batida, porque, por sorte, não tive sintomas físicos mais fortes. Senti um pouco mais de calor, mas como aqui é tão calor e eu sou tão agitada, eu nunca soube que aquilo era específico da menopausa. Vou mudar um pouco de assunto porque não dá para deixar de falar sobre isso. Uma das melhores entrevistas do Trip FM no ano passado foi com seu marido, o cineasta Estêvão Ciavatta. Ele contou do acidente num passeio a cavalo que o deixou paralisado do pescoço para baixo e com chances de não voltar a andar. E fez uma declaração muito forte sobre o que você representou nessa recuperação surpreendente dele. A expressão "estamos juntos" virou meio banal, mas, de fato, você estava junto ali. Voltando a falar do etarismo, o Estêvão foi muito corajoso de casar com uma mulher que era quase 15 anos mais velha, totalmente estabelecida profissionalmente, conhecida em qualquer lugar, que tinha sido casada com um cara maravilhoso, o Luiz Zerbini, que tinha uma filha, uma roda de amigos muito grande, um símbolo muito sólido, tudo isso. Ele propôs casar comigo, na igreja, com 45 anos. Eu, hippie, do Asdrúbal e tudo, levei um susto, nunca pensei que eu casar. O que aconteceu? Eu levei esse compromisso muito a sério, e não é o compromisso de ficar com a pessoa na saúde, na doença, na alegria, na tristeza. É também, mas é o compromisso de, bom, vamos entrar nessa? Então eu vou aprender como faz isso, como é esse amor, como é essa pessoa, eu vou aprender a te amar do jeito que você é. Acho que o pessoal casa meio de brincadeira, mas eu casei a sério mesmo, e estamos casados há 28 anos. Então, quando aconteceu aquilo, eu falei: ué, a gente resolveu ficar junto e viver o que a vida trouxesse pra gente, então vamos embora. O que der disso, vamos arrumar um jeito, mas estamos juntos. E acho que teve uma coisa que me ajudou muito. O quê? Aqui em casa é tipo pátio dos milagres. Teve isso que aconteceu com o Estêvão, e também a gente ter encontrado o Roque no momento que encontrou [seu filho caçula, hoje com 11 anos, foi adotado pelo casal quando bebê]. A vida que a gente tem hoje é inacreditável. Parece realmente que levou oito anos, o tempo que demorou para encontrar o filho da gente, porque estava perdido em algum lugar, igual a Dona Lurdes, de Amor de Mãe. Essa é a sensação. E a Benedita, quando nasceu, quase morreu, e eu também. Ela teve Apgar [escala que avalia os recém-nascidos] zero, praticamente morreu e viveu. Nasceu superforte, ouvinte, gorda, forte, cabeluda, mas eu tive um descolamento de placenta, e com isso ela aspirou líquido. Ela ficou surda porque a entupiram de garamicina, um antibiótico autotóxico. Foi na melhor das intenções, pra evitar uma pneumonia pelo líquido que tinha aspirado, mas ninguém conhecia muito, eram os primórdios da UTI Neonatal. O que foi para a gente uma tragédia, porque ela nasceu bem. Só que ali aprendi um negócio que ajudou muito nessa história do Estêvão: a lidar com médico. E aprendi a não aceitar os "não". Então quando o cara dizia "você tem que reformar a sua casa, tira a banheira e bota só o chuveiro largo para poder entrar a cadeira de rodas", eu falava: "Como eu vou saber se ele vai ficar pra sempre na cadeira de rodas?". [QUOTE=1221] Quando a Benedita fala "oi, tudo bem?", ela tem um leve sotaque, anasalado e grave, porque ela só tem os graves, não tem nem médio, nem agudo. Mas ela fala, canta, já ganhou concurso de karaokê. Quando alguém vê a audiometria da Benedita, a perda dela é tão severa, tão profunda, que falam: "Esse exame não é dessa pessoa". É o caso do Estêvão. Quando olham a lesão medular dele e veem ele andando de bicicleta com o Roque, falam: "Não é possível". Por isso eu digo que aqui em casa é o pátio dos milagres. A gente desconfia de tudo que é “não”. É claro que existem coisas que são limitações estruturais, e não adianta a gente querer que seja de outro jeito, mas ajuda muito duvidar e ir avançando a cada "não" até que ele realmente seja intransponível. No caso do Estêvão, acho que ele ficou feliz porque teve perto por perto não só uma onça cuidando e amando, mas uma onça que já tinha entendido isso. Porque se a gente tivesse se acomodado a cada “não”, talvez ele não estivesse do jeito que está hoje. [IMAGE=https://revistatrip.uol.com.br/upload/2025/03/67d49af631476/header-regina-interna2.jpg; CREDITS=João Pedro Januário; LEGEND=; ALT_TEXT=] Eu já vi você falar que essa coisa da onça é um pouco fruto do machismo, que você teve que virar braba para se colocar no meio de grupos que eram majoritariamente de homens, numa época que esse papo do machismo era bem menos entendido. Isso acabou forjando o seu jeito de ser? Com certeza. Eu queria ser homem. Achava que tudo seria mais fácil, melhor. Achava maravilhoso até a minha filha ser mulher. Fiquei assustadíssima. Falei: "Não vou ser capaz, não vou acertar". Aí botei a Benedita no futebol, foi artilheira e tudo, e fui cercando com uma ideia nem feminista, nem machista, mas de que o masculino ia ser melhor pra ela, mais fácil. Mas aí aprendi com a Benedita não só a amar as mulheres, mas a me amar como mulher, grávida, dando de mamar, criando outra mulher, me relacionando com amigas, com outras mulheres. Isso tudo veio depois da Benedita. Mas se você falar "antigamente o machismo"... Vou te dizer uma coisa. Se eu estou no carro e falo para o motorista “é ali, eu já vim aqui, você pode dobrar à direita”, ele pergunta assim: “Seu Estêvão, você sabe onde é para dobrar?”. Aí eu falo: “Vem cá, você quer que compre um pau para dizer pra você para dobrar à direita? Vou ter que botar toda vez que eu sentar aqui? Porque não é possível, estou te dizendo que eu já vim ali”. É muito impressionante, porque não é em grandes discussões, é o tempo todo. É porque a gente não repara, sabe? Quer dizer, eu reparo, você que é homem talvez não repare. Nesses momentos mais difíceis, na hora de lidar com os problemas de saúde da Benedita ou com o acidente punk do Estêvão, o que você acha que te ajudou mais: os anos de terapia ou o Terreiro de Gantois, casa de Candomblé que você frequenta em Salvador? As duas coisas, porque a minha terapia também foi muito aberta. E não só o Gantois como o Sacré-Coeur de Marie. Eu tenho uma formação católica. Outro dia eu ri muito porque a Mãe Menininha se declarava católica em sua biografia, e perguntaram: "E o Candomblé"? Ela falava: “Candomblé é outra coisa”. E eu vejo mais ou menos assim. Não é que são duas religiões, eu não posso pegar e jogar a criança junto com a água da bacia. É claro que eu tenho todas as críticas que você quiser à Igreja Católica, mas eu fui criada por essa avó Graziela, que era professora, uma mulher genial, e tão católica que, te juro, ela conversava com Nossa Senhora como eu estou conversando com você. Quando ela recebia uma graça muito grande, ligava para mim e para minhas irmãs e falava: "Venham aqui, porque eu recebi uma graça tão grande que preciso de vocês para agradecer comigo, sozinha não vou dar conta." Estudei em colégio de freiras a minha vida inteira, zero trauma de me sentir reprimida, me dava bem, gosto do universo, da igreja. [IMAGE=https://revistatrip.uol.com.br/upload/2025/03/67d49cbe34551/header-regina-interna5.jpg; CREDITS=Christian Gaul; LEGEND=Em 1999, Regina Casé foi a entrevistada das Páginas Negras da Trip; ALT_TEXT=] Aí eu tenho um encontro com o Candomblé, lindíssimo, através da Mãe Menininha. Essa história é maravilhosa. O Caetano [Veloso] disse: "Mãe Menininha quer que você vá lá". Eu fiquei apavorada, porque achei que ela ia fazer uma revelação, tinha medo que fosse um vaticínio... Até que tomei coragem e fui. Cheguei lá com o olho arregalado, entrei no quarto, aquela coisa maravilhosa, aquela presença.. Aí eu pedi a benção e perguntei o que ela queria. Ela falou: "Nada não, queria conhecer a Tina Pepper". Então, não só o Gantuar, o Candomblé como um todo, só me trouxe coisas boas e acolhida. A minha relação com a Bahia vem desde os 12 anos de idade, depois eu acabei recebendo até a cidadania de tamanha paixão e dedicação. É incrível porque eu nunca procurei. No episódio da Benedita, no dia seguinte já recebi de várias pessoas orientações do que eu devia fazer. No episódio do Estêvão também, não só do Gantuar, mas da [Maria] Bethânia, e falavam: "Olha, você tem que fazer isso, você tem que cuidar daquilo". Então, como é que eu vou negar isso? Porque isso tudo está aqui dentro. Então, acho que você tem que ir pegando da vida, que nem a Dona Darlene do “Eu Tu Eles”, que ficou com os três maridos. A vida vai passando por você e você vai guardando as coisas que foram boas e tentando se livrar das ruins. A gente sabe que você tem uma rede de amizades absurda, é muito íntima de meio mundo. Eu queria brincar daquela história de te deixar sozinha numa ilha, sem internet, com todos os confortos, livros, música. Você pode ligar à vontade para os seus filhos, pro seu marido, mas só tem uma pessoa de fora do seu círculo familiar para quem você pode ligar duas vezes por semana. Quem seria o escolhido para você manter contato com a civilização? É curioso que meus grandes amigos não têm celular. Hermano [Vianna] não fala no celular, Caetano só fala por e-mail, é uma loucura, não é nem WhatsApp. Acho que escolheria o Caetano, porque numa ilha você precisa de um farol. Tenho outros faróis, mas o Caetano foi, durante toda a minha vida, o meu farol mais alto, meu norte. E acho que não suportaria ficar sem falar com ele.
On the Road to Aya.Cael becomes the Amazon's Unorthodox Global DiplomatBy FinalStand. Listen to the Podcast at Explicit Novels.For me, the diplomacy revolved around Delilah and Virginia, I had already fallen on my knees and begged Odette to let me go see Aya 'alone'. A few sexual-charged hours later, she agreed. That left four choices for the role of my two agents. They wanted to go 'as is'. Rachel informed them they would be murdered in-flight and their bodies tossed out over a convenient body of water.Rachel felt that the only reasonable course of action was for them to not come. That way the two could live a few more weeks. However, she would settle for stripping them down, doing a full body scan and then sealing them naked in airtight coffins (with a suitable amount of oxygen) for the journey. I suspected they might still slip out the baggage compartment somewhere between takeoff and landing.I cut through the clash of egos and made the final decision. Delilah and Virginia would be stripped and thoroughly examined. Initially I had the chore. Rachel was deeply suspicious of my true intentions. Freed of any electronic devices and with their weaponry in my keeping during the trip, they would be blindfolded as we made it to Aya without bloodshed.They applauded my wisdom by roundly refusing my decision. Pamela was of no help. Ten minutes into it, I informed them I was going alone, completely alone. They laughed, snorted and chuckled. Rachel reminded me that I didn't know where to go. I lied and told her that Katrina had given me the coordinates for the super-secret juvenile, all-feline [yes, I meant cats], survival training school.Fine, they would just keep me under constant surveillance. I responded by assuring them that despite my lack of spy-like abilities, I would escape and get to relive my Summer Camp experience with the only woman who respected my Demigod-like combat status. Their laughter hurt my feelings. Pamela stepped up and told the room they could either respect my compromise, or she would help me evade them.It was even more depressing to see the room full of women who had previously been mocking me suddenly 'snap to' and quickly agree to my earlier suggestions."It is okay," Pamela told me softly as the actual mechanics of my vacation were figured out by others. "I didn't want to play Bill Munny to your Ben Logan."Pamela's eyes flared brighter than any phoenix's rebirth. She'd stumped me."The Unforgiven, my Son," she patted my cheek. "It is a western made in 1992 starring Clint Eastwood, recast masterfully by 'Yours Truly' and, we need to work on you making a convincing Morgan Freeman.""Doesn't Freeman end up in a pinewood box in the first third of the movie?" Virginia mused."I didn't want to dishearten him," Pamela grinned. To me. "He ran off alone and got himself killed.""I was what, not even a year old when that movie came out," I responded with indignation."You've never heard of Block Busters, Netflix, Redbox, Dish, Hulu, or late night, Spanish language television?" Pamela snickered."I only watch Univision for their sports coverage," I countered."You mean for those sexy female sports announcers," Delilah chuckled. That earned her a 'well duh' look from all the other women."Before I consent to the strip search and inevitable follow-up anal probe, are we really going to be in a situation that requires us to fight this time?" Virginia asked."We should be perfectly safe," Rachel responded."Check, bring extra ammo," Virginia nodded."Good for you, Ms. Maddox," Pamela winked. "One day there is hope your life will have some meaning to me.""Great," Special Agent Maddox muttered, "now I have to think of what to get her for Christmas." We all laughed. Christmas was such a long way away.We packed up, rode to a private airfield near Doebridge, learned that SD was smarter than the rest of us, boarded our flight, and then finally entered US airspace from there. Around Ohio, a thought occurred to Maddox."If we were somehow forced to land and have the plane searched, how bad would it be?" she requested of Rachel."Bad enough that we have a better chance of fighting our way free than seeing freedom before dying in prison," Rachel answered calmly."Hmm, Rachel, if something like that happened, how many parachutes do we have?" Delilah joined in."Enough. Mona rides down with Cael because he's a virgin," Rachel stated."Oh! Come on Rachel," I fell down on my knees. "Can't I bungee jump it?""Luv," Delilah snorted. "If the drop didn't kill ya, the bounce back would snap you in two.""Cáel, we are at thirty thousand feet," Tiger Lily giggled. "You are more likely to end as a streamer than a pancake." An Amazon giggle, a most joyous noise."Rachel, I have been unkind," Virginia confessed. "Cáel is so personable and so dead set on getting himself killed. I had no idea your assignment was so herculean.""Acknowledged," Rachel said, "and we don't use 'that' word." Hercules was Greek too."We have it worse," Delilah patted Maddox on her shoulder. "We must obey some sort of legal code that doesn't allow us to preemptively save him.""We must too," Rachel gave a depressive sigh. "Her," she pointed at Pamela."Hey," Pamela pouted. "I'm more a force for vigilante justice than a team player. I ride alone.""Alone?" I took a quick headcount and added our Amazon pilot. "I count ten, Lone Phaser.""Am I included in that count?" Miyako yawned from under her blanket. "This jet lag is killing me.""Where did she come from?" Virginia hopped up."She was here when we boarded," I told her. "I searched her, I swear.""Yes he did," Miyako gave a sleepy, Hello Kitty smile. She'd 'searched' me too."I bet you did," Rachel glared at me, then Pamela, then me again since I was the titular boss.Thankfully we all 'bought a vowel', played a card in Clue, and shared an Inspector Clouseau moment. The gang settled down for a nap. Sleeping was not complicated. Rachel, as my bodyguard, slept beside me. The airplane's touchdown was so flawless I had to be shaken to alertness. Did I fall asleep? More on that later.It would have been better if Virginia hadn't figured out our pilot had violated numerous FAA regulations, like dropping below radar at one remote airport then sailing along for an unknown number of kilometers at nape of the Earth until we reached our final destination (This is great in date flicks, btw. It convinces the girl that we should 'live in the moment'/screw as much as possible.)We weren't there yet, of course. That level of un-convoluted thinking would have been an Amazon indicator of senility. Being a male Amazon, I was immune to such considerations, that meant I was always nuts in their regard, but they chose to humor me. Our plane had to park in a camouflaged hangar before we were allowed to disembark.I concluded we must be getting close to our desert gulag/re-education center as the sharp glare of sunlight was accompanied by an equally heartless glare of hostility rolling forth from our waiting all-terrain vehicle caravan. Thank goodness Rachel had the foresight to bring sunscreen for the passel of us. I swallowed the bitter realization I'd lost a $1000 bet concerning our landing zone with Virginia (a Temperate Rainforest) and Delilah (the American Southwest). In retrospect, betting on the site of 'Camp Rock' wasn't my smartest wager.The Brit made off with $2000 of our money and she wanted to be paid in Euros. That's €778 from me, you offspring of those who didn't have the courage to cross the Atlantic 100 years ago. Neither Virginia nor I really cared. With the level of violence about to escalate, it was all looking like 'funny' money to us. I didn't share my misery. Our Welcome Wagon ladies hardly looked sympathetic, or all that opposed to utilizing scalping as a valid debating tool.They didn't view this moment as just a bad thing, me showing up. My arrival was apocalyptic: #1, a man. #2, with a member of another secret society. #3, #2 was a professional assassin. #4 and #5, two more outsider women. #6, an unscheduled visit, as in 'the camp guardians hadn't been given six months to plan out all contingencies'. And you think your daycare takes its security seriously?"Cáel Ishara," the curt, mega-harsh bitch addressed me in English. As the other seven women dismounted from the four Jeep Wranglers (Delilah enlightened us), it was obvious they were well armed and armored, right and ready to provide some extra-curricular para-military fun. "Welcome," and 'oh please tear out one or two of my fingernails you Ginormous Pain in my ass' she greeted the exalted me. We spoke in Hittite;"I am”, then I used a phrase which I hoped meant 'I had shed blood in battle with sister Aya'. "No other name means more to me right now." Ah, the lovely jerk that full-blooded Amazons gave the first time they heard a male speak their tongue. The slot machine of her intellect kicked into high gear. No arm grasp was coming my way. I almost forgot."The outsiders are to remain armed as guests of House Ishara." That command was crucial. When/if I got my way with my first request, I was going to be rendered 'one of the girls'."If that is your wish. (Evil grin) Grab your bags and make it snappy," the woman ordered. "I don't like any extended activity at this airfield.""Ladies, let's hurry up and get our bags," Pamela barked in English. "You too, you hairless ape." That would be me, if there was any question. The Super-friendly camp counselors, with their slung FN P90's, didn't lift a finger to help us. Miyako flounced around without a care in the world. Pamela, eh, there were only eight of them. Three of my SD group were cautious while the pilot was already effecting her refueling and departure.Rachel shot one of the guardians a look I perceived to be friendly. A double-take elucidated things. She was Rachel's younger sister and had already been updated on my bona fides. Then in Hittite;"Male, you are agreeable to the eye," Rachel's sister fired off. Three whole seconds."Why thank you. I run faster than you would think, thankfully heal even faster and have the venerated outdoor skills of Bigfoot," I smiled.The seven other ladies weren't sure what to make of that jocularity."A very, very young Bigfoot," Rachel corrected."There is nothing wrong with the size of his feet," Tiger Lily added to the fun. And then all the homicidal fanatics chuckled.Pamela's whispered translation brought a subdued, yet similar reaction from the non-Amazon contingent. Sure, the new group knew about the New Directive, my fun encounters which I equated to my life and death struggle in those earlier days, my rise to house leadership, Constanza's blinding, the grenade launcher episode and the totality of my last confrontation with Hayden. Amazons are some hard-ass bitches.As we were loading up the jeeps, the leader tapped me on the shoulder with some force, in the same way a teacher catches an unruly student's attention."What was sex with an augur like? My name is Caprica Mielikki.""Out of respect for your authority, I will answer this personal question that is really none of your business," I looked down a good ten centimeters at her. No fear."It was beautiful, like every other woman I have had the treasured pleasure to have sex with," I continued. My reply's undercurrent was simple: I am not a House Head while I'm here. I am an Amazon, not a slave, or outsider male."Did you suffer stigmata?""Yes. To be fair, I was also having intercourse with her personal guardian at the same time. I'm not sure where to lay the blame, or importance," I inhaled her rugged fragrance."Both?" a different camp counselor questioned."As I told you, he has a really big and craftily-wielded foot," Tiger Lily teased, then Pamela said in Hittite;"And he is banned from having sex with any Amazon women for fifty more days," Pamela reminded them. Miyako, Delilah and Maddox weren't involved so were left uninformed of that detail. That bludgeoning innuendo dealt with, off to camp we went. Our journey was a pleasant diversion, punctuated by our trail, or lack thereof.The jeeps split up once we hit the aerial cover of the desert pines. At that point, every rock, shrub, tree and loose bit of debris revealed its God-given mission in life was to kill us. I kept telling myself that surely our Amazon driver abhorred suicide as much as I frowned on vehicular manslaughter as a means of me dying.Failing to believe that left me with tuck, duck and roll and that death-defying move would leave me lost and waterless, somewhere. I would have thought 'somewhere without cell reception', but none of our mobile devices had made the trip, despite a valiant effort at skullduggery by Special Agent Maddox and some highly creative types back at the Hoover Building.See, after we dutifully packed all our gear, the troupe got to watch Rachel's team toss everything into a cargo bin set to be loaded onto a flight to, the ticket said Banjul, Gambia. Woot! My ten ton armored long coat was going to Africa without me. It would have undoubtedly have tried to kill me in this heat. I was lured into acceptance by hoping this was going to be a 'birthday suit' flight.Yay! (Sarcasm) We got all new undies, shirts, shoes, pants, shorts, jackets, ponchos (I was beginning to suspect duplicity on that one), and a variety of other gear, including guns. They were nice enough to replace our weapons with the exact same production models. The sole exceptions were my trusty axes and I trembled at the scrutiny they must have endured.Meanwhile, back to my archaic, misogynistic inspiration that women shouldn't be allowed to drive: after the third skirting of what must have been a ten meter drop, I realized I was looking at this journey in the wrong light. I raised my hands over my head and began screaming like a fool. I was on the best rollercoaster ride ever!!The hobnail boot was on the other foot. My driver really wanted to know what the fuck I was up to, but couldn't take her concentration off the terrain. One massive lurch planted us in an arroyo (that's a dry riverbed for those of us who aren't freaked out every time it rains). Rachel and I were sitting in the back. Turning around in the front seat, Pamela grinned at me."I dare you to surf the hood," she laughed. Sweet Mother Ishara, that was the best mixing of 'you must be a redneck'/'immortal high schooler madness' I'd ever heard. I unbuckled milliseconds before Rachel could stop me. Her look said it all. 'Please, you Moron, don't do this to me. I've been a good little guardian and really don't deserve this, now do I?'I gave her a deep French kiss. She moaned, just not in a sexual manner. One of these days Rachel was going to start running around with a needle and fast acting sedative to keep me safe from myself. Understand, my driver was racing down this dirt, well, "pathway" was being generous. Her first warning that something wasn't right was me hand-standing on the roll bar and flipping onto the dashboard.Considering I was up against a 70 kilometer headwind, I felt I pulled off that maneuver rather well. She grabbed my closest ankle with one hand while keeping the other on the wheel. Our eyes were masked with goggles, but my smile said it all. No, I hadn't been thrown forward, and no, I wasn't running away from something in the back seat.I shook free, stepped over the windshield, braced my right heel against its base and leaned into the torrent of air. I was surfing a jeep. Then I was flying above the jeep, but only for a second. We'd hit a rock the size of an armadillo, or maybe it was an actual armadillo. I wasn't looking back to check. Why was I doing this? It was a tad complex. I gave Psych 101 a shot.My life was not where I had envisioned it would be when I kissed Dr. Kimberly Geisler, and my last two Bolingbrook girlfriends, who had been unaware of each other until that moment, good-bye before leaving college forever. I proudly considered myself amoral. No social contract would keep me from some good cunt, and since I found all cunt to be good if you worked at it, I slept with every girl I could, married, committed, bored, desperate, I didn't care.I held no relationship sacred. I had already proved I could do any girl's mother, daughter, aunt, roommate, childhood friend and total stranger. I hadn't cared. I knew I was going to cause multiple women emotional pain and I did it anyway. Sure, I regretted the agony I left in my wake.I never considered myself a sadist, but I had been a pretty horrible person by ignoring the inevitable consequences of my actions. Then Havenstone. Suddenly people were doing bad stuff to people I didn't know and it mattered to me. I was talking to women without the end goal being a sexual encounter.Hell, I had been honest to women without them using pain, or the threat of pain, on me. I didn't stop being me. I nailed four women at Loraine's, Europa's and Aya's school. I nailed Nicole while waiting for Trent to toss me his social table scraps, Libra. A whole army of women engaged in murder, slavery and infanticide on a regular basis, and I cared for them.I cared for them in a way that confronted damnation, not sexual adventurism. I had graduated from 'Dude, don't do that to the lady' at some bar to 'do this and I'll have you killed' and meaning it, and making it happen. I hadn't learned my lesson. I'd gone on to kill Hayden and Goddess-knows how many other women who Hayden had placed on that list.Yep, dead, dead, dead and it was all on me. Worse, I would do it all over again because deep down, tearing up my insides, was morality. To me that boiled down to caring about someone else without reward. And all that led me to surfing the hood of a jeep on my way to meet my lodestone of this transformation, Aya.My laughter was drowned out by the noises of the engine, tires, rocks, wind and sand. It resonated all the more. The driver didn't slow down. I sincerely doubted she understood my lunacy. That was okay. Pamela did and Aya would. She'd want to go jeep surfing too. Man, for a jackass and dastardly betrayer, I was accumulating a sizable heart-load of people I could honestly say I loved.Kimberly had once told me that the pain of knowledge is never being able to forget it. Good, or bad, it is an affliction for which there is no cure. That was where I was, pained by the creeping advancement of my soul and unable to turn back now that the door to familial affection had been opened.My thoughts of Dad dying and of a thunderstorm burst in my noggin weren't being terribly helpful to my mental state either. The horn blew and I snuck a quick peek back. The driver was making a sharp, forward jabbing motion with her right hand, then thrusting to the left. We were getting ready to exit the arroyo and that probably required some hellish footwork far beyond my ability.I made a hasty, less dignified, yet safer return to my seat. Rachel quickly buckled me in before a rapid turn up and over the bank of the river bed had us heading for another forested area."What was that all about?" Rachel asked once we were back into the tree cover. She'd have asked earlier but she was too busy clenching and unclenching her jaw in frustration.

Menyoal Efektivitas Kenaikan UMP untuk Kesejahteraan Buruh Oleh. Vega Rahmatika Fahra, S.H.(Tim Penulis Inti NarasiPost.Com) Voice over talent: Yeni M NarasiPost.Com-Pada Upacara Hari Guru Nasional yang diadakan pada tanggal 25 November 2024, Presiden Republik Indonesia Bapak Prabowo Subianto mengumumkan kebijakan kenaikan rata-rata Upah Minimum Provinsi (UMP) sebesar 6,5 persen untuk tahun 2025. Keputusan ini diambil setelah serangkaian rapat terbatas dengan kementerian terkait serta diskusi bersama perwakilan buruh. Selain kenaikan UMP, program bantuan makanan bergizi juga digulirkan oleh pemerintah yang menargetkan Rp10 ribu per hari untuk setiap penerima manfaat, diharapkan dapat sedikit meringankan beban buruh, terutama bagi ibu hamil dan anak-anak.

(PLEASE NOTE: There was an error with Mark's primary recording microphone so the editing team were forced to use the secondary audio for this episode. It's not that bad and you quickly get used to it. The prestine audio quality of the UMP will return to normal this Thursday!) One of the most common mistakes men make when trying to get women attracted to them is demonstrating too much interest and being too forward. The masculine, confident, and unapologetic men that women want aren't desperate. They don't care whether a woman likes them or not because they are in a position of abundance. And when a woman detects that energy, she'll want you badly. Today's episode will teach you how to create this effect by purposely putting women in the friend zone. Then, by virtue of being reserved with her, you become unattainable and thereby insanely attractive to her.

C dans l'air du 12 janvier 2024 - Macron : à droite... et adroit ? Après plusieurs jours d'hésitation, l'exécutif a dévoilé hier soir la composition du gouvernement de Gabriel Attal. Une équipe pour l'instant composée de onze ministres et trois ministres délégués, soit quatorze membres mais qui devrait dans les jours à venir être complétée par la nomination de secrétaires d'Etat. Pour l'heure on trouve sept femmes, mais seulement quatre sont ministres sur les onze, et parmi elles Catherine Vautrin, ancienne ministre sous Jacques Chirac, pressentie pour être Première ministre, en mai 2022, avant qu'Emmanuel Macron ne change d'avis au profit d'Elisabeth Borne. Cette fois, elle fait son entrée au gouvernement et se voit confier un ministère aux attributions extrêmement larges : travail, santé et solidarités. L'autre femme à faire une entrée fracassante au gouvernement, c'est l'ancienne ministre de Nicolas Sarkozy Rachida Dati. Dans la foulée de sa nomination au ministère de la Culture, elle a été exclue de son parti, Les Républicains, par le président Eric Ciotti. L'ancien secrétaire général de Renaissance, Stephane Séjourné a lui été nommé ministre des Affaires étrangères. Amélie Oudéa-Castéra prend la tête d'un super ministère de l'Éducation nationale, de la Jeunesse, des Sports et des Jeux olympiques et paralympiques. Prisca Thévenot, jusque-là secrétaire d'Etat à la jeunesse, est promue au porte-parolat et Marie Lebec devient ministre déléguée aux Relations avec le Parlement. Surtout les poids lourds du gouvernement Borne - Gérald Darmanin, Bruno Le Maire, Éric Dupond-Moretti, Fabien Lecornu, Marc Fesneau – sont tous maintenus en poste. Un gouvernement composé de ministres qu'Emmanuel Macron souhaite "révolutionnaires" et qui n'a jamais autant penché à droite depuis 2017. Huit ministres sur quatorze ont autrefois été encarté UMP ou LR. L'Elysée continue de soutenir que le dépassement des clivages n'est pas enterré mais dans les faits Emmanuel Macron rompt avec ce qu'il restait de son aile gauche dont l'attitude l'avait ulcéré au moment de la loi immigration. De quoi faire grincer des dents à l'aile gauche de la Macronie, qui pourrait être à l'origine d'une fronde chez Renaissance mais aussi du Modem de François Bayrou qui menacerait en coulisse de présenter sa propre liste aux élections européennes. Alors comment vont réagir l'aile gauche de la macronie et le Modem de François Bayrou ? Le gouvernement Attal, un coup politique ? Le nouveau Premier ministre Gabriel Attal promet "de l'action" et "des résultats". Il est d'ores et déjà très attendu sur les questions économies et sociale en ce début d'année marqué par les négociations salariales et un nombre de faillites d'entreprises au plus haut depuis six ans.

Witness to Yesterday (The Champlain Society Podcast on Canadian History)
In this podcast episode, Nicole O'Byrne talks to James Naylor, Rhonda L. Hinther, and Jim Mochoruk about their book, For a Better World: The Winnipeg General Strike and the Workers' Revolt, published by UMP in September 2022. Canada's largest and most famous example of class conflict, the Winnipeg General Strike, redefined local, national, and international conversations around class, politics, region, ethnicity, and gender. The Strike's centenary occasioned a re-examination of this critical moment in working-class history, when 300 social justice activists, organizers, scholars, trade unionists, artists, and labour rights advocates gathered in Winnipeg in 2019. Editors Naylor, Hinther, and Mochoruk depict key events of 1919, detailing the dynamic and complex historiography of the Strike and the larger Workers' Revolt that reverberated around the world and shaped the century following the war. For a Better World interrogates types of commemoration and remembrance, current legacies of the Strike, and its ongoing influence. Together, the essays in this collection demonstrate that the Winnipeg General Strike continues to mobilize—revealing our radical past and helping us to think imaginatively about collective action in the future. James Naylor is the author of The Fate of Labour Socialism: The Co-operative Commonwealth Federation and the Dream of a Working-Class Future (2016). He is a professor of history at Brandon University. Rhonda L. Hinther is a professor in the Department of History at Brandon University, and an active public historian. Prior to joining BU, she served as Director of Research and Curation at the Canadian Museum for Human Rights and, before that, as Curator of Western Canadian History at the Canadian Museum of History. She is the co-editor of Civilian Internment in Canada: Histories and Legacies. Jim Mochoruk has taught at the University of North Dakota since 1993. His books include Formidable Heritage: Manitoba's North and the Cost of Development, 1870 to 1930. Image Credit: UMP If you like our work, please consider supporting it: bit.ly/support_WTY.

That may not impress the Western chauvinists, who refuse to acknowledge any merit to east-of-the-Mississippi skiing, but were we to airlift this monster to the West Coast, it would tower over all but two ski areas in the three-state region:The International Olympic Committee does not select Winter Games host mountains by tossing darts at a world map. Consider the other U.S. ski areas that have played host: Palisades Tahoe, Park City, Snowbasin, Deer Valley. All naturally blessed with more and more consistent snow than this gnarly Adirondacks skyscraper, but Whiteface, from a pure fall-line skiing point of view, is the equal of any mountain in the country.Still not convinced? Fine. Whiteface will do just fine without you. This state-owned, heavily subsidized-by-public-funds monster seated in the heart of the frozen Adirondacks has just about the most assured future of any ski area anywhere. With an ever-improving monster of a snowmaking system and no great imperative to raise the cannons against Epkon invaders, the place is as close to climate-proof and competition-proof as a modern ski area can possibly be.There's nothing else quite like Whiteface. Most publicly owned ski areas are ropetow bumps that sell lift tickets out of a woodshed on the edge of town. They lean on public funds because they couldn't exist without them. The big ski areas can make their own way. But New York State, enamored of its Olympic legacy and eager to keep that flame burning, can't quite let this one go. The result is this glimmering, grinning monster of a mountain, a boon for the skier, bane for the tax-paying family-owned ski areas in its orbit who are left to fight this colossus on their own. It's not exactly fair and it's not exactly right, but it exists, in all its glory and confusion, and it was way past time to highlight Whiteface on this podcast.What we talked aboutWhiteface's strong early December (we recorded this before the washout); recent snowmaking enhancements; why Empire still doesn't have snowmaking; May closings at Whiteface; why Whiteface built The Notch, an all-new high-speed quad, to serve existing terrain; other lines the ski area considered for the lift; Whiteface's extensive transformation of the beginner experience over the past few years; remembering “snowboard parks” and the evolution of Whiteface's terrain parks; Whiteface's immense legacy and importance to Northeast skiing; could New York host another Winter Olympics?; potential upper-mountain lift upgrades; the etymology of recent Whiteface lift installations; Lookout Mountain; potential future trails; how New York State's constitution impacts development at Whiteface; why Whiteface doesn't offer more glades; The Slides; why Whiteface doesn't have ski-in, ski-out lodging; and whether Alterra invited Whiteface and its sister mountains onto the Ikon Pass in 2018, and whether they would join today.Why I thought that now was a good time for this interviewOver the past three years, Whiteface has quietly remade its beginner experience with a series of lower-mountain lift upgrades: the old triple chair on the Bear Den side (which Kellett notes was Whiteface's original summit chair) made way for a new Skytrac fixed-grip quad in 2020. The next year, the Mixing Bowl and Bear doubles out of the main base came out for another new Skytrac quad. Then, earlier this month, Whiteface opened The Notch, a brand-new, $11.2 million Doppelmayr high-speed quad with an angle station to seamlessly transport skiers from Bear Den up to mid-mountain, from which point they can easily lap the kingdom of interlaced greens tangled below. Check out the before and after:It's a brilliant evolution for a mountain that has long embraced its identity as a proving ground for champions, a steep and icy former Olympic host comfortable scaring the hell out of you. Skiing has a place for radsters and Park Brahs and groomer gods arcing GS turns off the summit. But the core of skiing is families. They spend the most on the bump and off, and they have options. In Whiteface's case, that's Vermont, the epicenter of Northeast skiing and home to no fewer than a dozen fully built-out and buffed-up ski resorts, many of which belong to a national multimountain pass that committed ski families are likely to own. To compete, Whiteface had to ramp up its green-circle appeal.I don't think the world has processed that fact yet, just as I don't think they've quite understood the utter transformations at Whiteface sister resorts Belleayre and Gore. The state has plowed more than half a billion dollars into ORDA's facilities since 2017. While some of that cash went to improve the authority's non-ski facilities in and around Lake Placid (ice rinks and the like), a huge percent went directly into new lifts, snowmaking, lodges, and other infrastructure upgrades at the ski mountains.For context, Alterra, owner of 18 ski areas in the U.S. and Canada, reported in March that they had invested $1 billion into their mountains since the company's formation in 2017. To underscore the magnitude of ORDA's investment: any one of Alterra's flagship western properties – Mammoth (3,500 acres), Palisades Tahoe (6,000), Winter Park (3,081), Steamboat (3,500), Crystal (2,600) – is many times larger than Whiteface (288), Gore (439), and Belleayre (171) combined (898 total acres, or just a bit smaller than Aspen Mountain). No ski areas in America have seen more investment in proportion to their size in recent years than these three state-owned mountains.I also wanted to touch on a topic that gnaws at me: why Alterra, when it cleaned out the M.A.X. Pass, overlooked so many strong regional mountains that could have turbocharged local sales. I got into this with Lutsen Mountains GM Jim Vick in October, and Kellett humors me on this question: would Whiteface have joined the Ikon Pass had it been invited in 2018? And would they join now, given the success and growth of the Ski 3 Pass over the past six years? The answers are not what you might think.Questions I wish I'd askedI probably should have asked about the World University Games, which Whiteface and Lake Placid spent years and millions of dollars to prepare for. I don't cover competition, but I do admire spectacles, and more than an allusion to the event would have been appropriate for the format. We do, however, go deep on the possibility of the Olympics returning to New York.Also, I don't get into the whole ORDA-public-funding-handicapping-New-York's-small-ski-areas thing, even though it is a thing, and one that independent operators rightly see as an existential threat. I do cover this dynamic often in the newsletter, but I don't address it with Kellett. Why? I'll reset here what I said when I hosted Gore GM Bone Bayse on the podcast last year:Many of you may be left wondering why my extensive past complaints about ORDA largess did not penetrate my line of questioning for this interview. Gore is about to spend nearly $9 million to replace a 12-year-old triple chair with a high-speed quad. There is no other ski area on the continent that is able to do anything remotely similar. How could I spend an hour talking to the person directing this whole operation without broaching this very obvious subject?Because this is not really a Gore problem. It's not even an ORDA problem. This is a New York State problem. The state legislature is the one directing hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to three ski areas while the majority of New York's family-owned mountains pray for snow. I am not opposed to government support of winter sports. I am opposed to using tax dollars from independent ski areas that have to operate at a profit in order to subsidize the operations of government-owned ski areas that do not. There are ways to distribute the wealth more evenly, as I've outlined before.But this is not Bayse's fight. He's the general manager of a public ski area. What is he supposed to do? Send the $9 million back to the legislature and tell them to give it to Holiday Mountain? His job is to help prioritize projects and then make sure they get done. And he's really good at that job. So that – and not bureaucratic decisions that he has no control over – was where I took this conversation.No need to rewrite it for Whiteface because the sentiment is exactly the same.What I got wrongI called the Empire trail “Vampire” because that's what I'd thought Kellett had called it and I'm not generally great about memorizing trail names. But no such trail exists. Sorry Whiteface Nation.I said the mid-mountain lodge burned down in “2018 or 2019.” The exact date was Nov. 30, 2019.I said that there had been “on the order of a billion dollars in improvements to ORDA facilities over the past decade… or at least several hundred million.” The actual number, according to a recent report in Adirondack Life, is $552 million over just six years.Why you should ski WhitefaceTwo hundred and ninety-nine acres doesn't sound like much, like something that fell off the truck while Vail was putting the Back Bowls in storage for the summer, like a mountain you could exhaust in a morning on a set of burners over fresh cord.But this is a state-owned mountain, and they measure everything in that meticulous bureaucratic way of The Official. Each mile of trail is measured and catalogued and considered. Because it has to be: New York State's constitution sets limits on how many miles of trails each of its owned mountains can develop. So constrained, the western wand-wavers, who typically count skiable acreage as anything within their development boundary, would be much more frugal in their accounting.So step past that off-putting stat – it's clear from the trailmap that options at Whiteface abound - to focus on this one: 3,166 feet of lift-served vert. That's not some wibbly-wobbly claim: this is real, straight-down, relentless fall line skiing. It's glorious. Yes, the pitch moderates below the mid-mountain lodge, but this is, top to bottom, one of the best pure ski mountains in America.And if you hit it just right and they crack open The Slides, you will feel, for a couple thousand vertical feet, like you're skiing off the scary side of Lone Peak at Big Sky or the Cirque at Snowbird. Wild terrain, steep and furious, featured and forlorn. It is the only terrain pod in the Northeast that sometimes requires an avalanche transceiver and shovel. It's that serious.There's also the history side, the pride, the pomp. Most mountains in New York feel comfortably local, colloquial almost, as though you'd stumbled onto some small town's Founder's Day Parade. But Whiteface carries the aura of the self-aware Olympian that it is, a cosmopolitan outpost in the middle of nowhere, a place where skiers from all over converge to see what's going on. As the only eastern U.S. mountain to ever host the games, Whiteface has a big legacy to carry, and it holds it with a bold pride that you must see to understand.Podcast NotesOn the Olympic Regional Development Authority (ORDA)If you're wondering what ORDA is, here's the boilerplate:The New York State Olympic Regional Development Authority (ORDA) was originally created by the State of New York to manage the facilities used during the 1980 Olympic Winter Games at Lake Placid. Today, ORDA operates multiple venues including the Olympic Center, Olympic Jumping Complex, Mt. Van Hoevenberg, Whiteface Mountain, Gore Mountain & Belleayre Mountain. In January 2023, many of ORDA's venues were showcased to the world as they played host the Lake Placid 2023 Winter World University Games, spanning 11 days, 12 sports, and over 600 competing universities from around the world.To understand why “ORDA” is a four-letter word among New York's independent ski area operators, read this piece in Adirondack Life, or this op-ed by Plattekill owner Laszlo Vajtay on efforts to expand neighboring Belleayre.On the Whiteface UMPEach of ORDA's three ski areas maintains a Unit Management Plan, outlining proposed near- and long-term improvements. Here's Whiteface's most recent amendment, from 2022, which shows a potential new, longer Freeway lift, among other improvements:The version that I refer to in my conversation with Kellett, however, is from the 2018 UMP amendment:On the Lifts that used to serve Whiteface's midmountainKellett discusses the kooky old lift configuration that served the midmountain from Whiteface's main base before the Face Lift high-speed quad arrived in 2002. Here's a circa 2000 trailmap, which shows a triple chair with a midstation running alongside a double chair that ends at the midstation. It's similar to the current setup of the side-by-side Little Whiteface and Mountain Run doubles (unchanged today from the map below), which Kellett tells us on the podcast “doesn't really work for us”:On the renaissance at BelleayreI referenced the incredible renaissance at Whiteface's sister mountain, Belleayre, which I covered after a recent visit last month:Seven years ago, Belleayre was a relic, a Catskills left-behind, an awkward mountain bisected by its own access road. None of the lifts connected in a logical way. Snowmaking was… OK.Then, in 2016, the Olympic Regional Development Authority (ORDA), the state agency that manages New York State's other two ski areas (Whiteface and Gore), took over management at Belle. Spectacular sums of money poured in: an eight-passenger gondola and trail connecting the upper and lower mountains in 2017; a new quad (Lightning) to replace a set of antique double-doubles in 2019; a dramatic base lodge expansion and renovation in 2020; and, everywhere, snowmaking, hundreds and hundreds of guns to blanket this hulking Catskills ridge.This year's headline improvement is the Overlook Quad, a 900-ish-vertical-foot fixed-grip machine that replaces the Lift 7 triple. Unlike its predecessor lift, which terminated above its namesake lodge, Overlook crosses the parking lot on a skier bridge crafted from remnants of the old Hudson-spanning Tappan Zee Bridge, then meets Lightning just below its unload.With these two lifts now connected, Belleayre offers three bottom-to-top paths. A new winder called Goat Path gives intermediates a clear ski to the bottom, a more thrilling option than meandering (but pleasant) Deer Run (off the gondy), or Roaring Brook (off the Belleayre high-speed quad).Belle will never be a perfect ski mountain. It's wicked steep for 20 or 30 turns, then intermediate-ish down to mid-mountain, then straight green to the bottom (I personally enjoy this idiosyncratic layout). But right now, it feels and skis like a brand-new ski area. Along with West Mountain and the soon-to-be-online Holiday Mountain, Belleayre is a candidate for most-improved ski area in New York State, a showpiece for renaissance through aggressive investment. Here's the mountain today - note how all the lifts now knot together into a logical network:On Beartown ski areaKellett mentions Beartown, a 150-vertical-foot surface-lift bump an hour north of Whiteface. Like many little town hills across America, Beartown uses its Facebook page as a de facto website. Here's a recent trailmap (the downhill operation is a footnote to the sprawling cross-country network):On the Miracle on IceIf you're not a sportsball fan, you may not be familiar with the Miracle on Ice, which is widely considered one of the greatest upsets in sports history. The United States hockey team, improbably, defeated the four-time-defending Olympic champion Soviet Union at the 1980 Lake Placid Olympics. The U.S. went on to defeat Finland in their final game to win the gold medal. This is a pretty good retrospective from a local Upstate New York news station:And this is what it looked like live:On Andrew WeibrechtKellett tells us that the Warhorse chairlift, built to replace the Bear and Mixing Bowl doubles in 2021, is named after Andrew Weibrecht, a ski racer who grew up at Whiteface. You can follow him on Instapost here.On Marble MountainThe main reason the U.S. has so many lost ski areas is that we didn't always know how or where to build ski areas. Which means we cut trails where there were hills but not necessarily consistent ski conditions. Such is the case with Whiteface, which is the historical plan B after the state's first attempt at a ski area on the mountain failed. This was Marble Mountain, which operated from 1935 to 1960 on a footprint that slightly overlaps present-day Whiteface:Whiteface opened in 1958, on the north side of the same mountain. This contemporary trailmap shows the Cloudsplitter trail, which Kellett tells us was part of Marble Mountain, connecting down to Whiteface:That trail quickly disappeared from the map:For decades, the forest moved in. Until, in 2008, Whiteface installed the Lookout Mountain Triple and revived the trail, now known as “Hoyt's High”:So, why did Marble Mountain go away? This excellent 2015 article from Skiing History lays it out:To get the full benefit of the sweeping northern vista from the newly widened Wilmington Trail at Whiteface Mountain near Lake Placid, pick a calm day. Otherwise, get ready for a blast of what ski historian and meteorologist Jeremy Davis characterizes as “howling, persistent winds” that 60 years ago brought down Marble Mountain. Intended to be New York State's signature ski resort in the 1950s, Marble lasted just 10 years before it closed. It remains the largest ski area east of the Mississippi to be abandoned.It turns out you can't move the mountain, so the state moved the ski area: The “new” Whiteface resort, dedicated in 1958, is just around the corner. With 87 trails and 3,430 vertical feet, Whiteface played host to the 1980 Winter Olympic alpine events and continues to host international and national competitions regularly. How close was Marble Mountain to Whiteface? Its Porcupine Lodge, just off the new Lookout Mountain chairlift, is still used by the Whiteface ski patrol.Full read recommended.On Gore's glade network versus Whiteface'sIn case you haven't noticed, Whiteface's sister resort, Gore, has a lights-out glade network:I've long wondered why Whiteface hasn't undertaken a similarly ambitious trailblazing project. Kellett clarifies in the podcast.On The SlidesThe Slides are a rarely open extreme-skiing zone hanging off Whiteface's summit. In case you overlooked them on the trailmap above, here's a zoom-in view:New York Ski Blog has put together a lights-out guide to this singular domain, with a turn-by-turn breakdown of Slides 1 through 4.On there being noplace to stay on the mountainWhile Whiteface and sister mountains Gore and Belleayre currently offer no slopeside lodging, I believe that they ought to, for a number of reasons. One, the revenue from such an enterprise would at least partially offset the gigantic tax subsidies that currently feed these mountains' capital budgets. Two, people want to stay at the mountain. Three, if they can't, they go where they can, which in the case of New York means Vermont or Jiminy Peak. Four, every person who is not staying at the mountain is driving there each morning in a polluting or congestion-causing vehicle. Five, yes I agree that endless slopeside condos are an eyesore, but the raw wilderness surrounding these three mountains grants ORDA a generational opportunity to construct dense, walkable, car-free villages that could accommodate thousands of skiers at varying price points within minimal acreage. In fact, the Bear Den parking lot at Whiteface, the main parking lot at Gore, and the lower parking lot at Belleayre would offer sufficient space to house humans instead of machines (or both – the cars could go underground). Long-term, U.S. skiing is going to need more of this and less everyone-drives-everyday clusterfucks. On the M.A.X. PassI will remain forever miffed that Alterra did not invite Whiteface, Gore, and Belleayre to join the Ikon Pass when it cleaned out and shut down the M.A.X. Pass in 2018. Here was that pass' roster – skiers could clock five days at each ski area:On multi-mountain pass owners on Indy PassEvery once in a while, some knucklehead will crack on social media that Whiteface could never join the Indy Pass because it's part of a larger ownership group, and therefore doesn't qualify. But they are reading the brand too literally. Indy doesn't give a s**t – they want the mountains that are going to sell passes, which is why their roster includes 22 ski areas that are owned by multi-mountain operators, including Jay Peak, its top redeemer for three seasons running:The Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing year-round.
