Lady Gaga interpreta el himno nacional estadounidense en la investidura de Joe Biden
Con la decisión de incluir a Lady Gaga en una de las actuaciones más importantes del evento, la cantante neoyorkina se convierte en la figura referente de la candidatura Biden-Harris. También fue la estrella del cierre de campaña electoral de los demócratas, donde pidió abiertamente el voto para Biden.
Como curiosidad, el vestido que llevó en la gala está cargado de simbolismo. Y no, no tiene nada que ver con 'Los juegos del hambre'. Descúbrelo en este enlace: https://cutt.ly/kjKqvHq

"Zona catastrófica y en las cabezas de algunos, más", por Marta Flich
Estamos decidiendo cuál es el número de muertes que podemos digerir. Mientras tanto, lo que se pudo hacer desde la política, ¿se hizo? No lo sé. ¿Hemos reforzado la asistencia sanitaria, concretamente en la atención primaria, muro de contención de la pandemia? ¿Cuándo hemos dejado de hablar de rastreadores? Porque lo hemos dado por perdido, algo que era fundamental, ¿no?
¿Por qué no se paró cuando vimos la que nos venía encima? ¿Por qué en esta pandemia salimos más polarizados en lo económico y en lo social? ¿Por qué nuestros dirigentes políticos no son capaces de empatizar con tanto sufrimiento y no se ponen de acuerdo, aunque solo sea para salvarnos la vida? ¿Por qué algunos quieren meter todo lo que no han sido capaces de gestionar con los recursos que tienen en zona catastrófica? Cuántas preguntas, eh. Es curioso que nos hayamos acostumbrado a que la política nos plantee preguntas en lugar de darnos respuestas. Hay mucha zona catastrófica, eh. Y en las cabezas de algunos más.

Fernando Simón cree que sería un "error” no poner la segunda dosis a los políticos que se vacunaron
Fernando Simón dice que si no se administrara la segunda dosis a los políticos que se vacunaron cuando no les tocaba, se cometerían "dos fallos seguidos", aunque "se puede poner en un plazo relativamente amplio. No tienen por qué ser los primeros".

La despedida de Melania Trump antes de abandonar la Casa Blanca: "Elegid el amor sobre el odio"
La primera dama de EEUU, Melania Trump, se despidió este lunes con un mensaje en el que instó a los estadounidenses a “escoger el amor sobre el odio” y “la paz sobre la violencia” dos días antes de dejar la Casa Blanca y en un gran ambiente de tensión en el país por el asalto al Capitolio del pasado 6 de enero: "Hay que ser apasionado en todo lo que se hace, pero siempre recordando que la violencia nunca es la respuesta y nunca puede ser justificada”.

La directora del máster de Cifuentes admite que falsificó el acta por presiones
La directora del máster que cursó en 2012 Cristina Cifuentes, Cecilia Rosado, ha reconocido este lunes en el juicio contra la expresidenta madrileña que creó un acta falsa y falsificó la firma de otras dos personas para certificar que la Cifuentes defendió su trabajo de final de máster (TFM). Y lo hizo, ha dicho, debido a las presiones de otros dos procesados.

Ayuso asegura que el hospital Isabel Zendal es el "mejor hospital de España en la lucha contra el COVID-19" y critica que la "deleznable campaña de desprestigio" lo está "empañando todo": “No hay pocos pacientes y sanitarios que vienen preocupados cuando son aquí trasladados porque están sugestionados".

"La solidaridad debería ser complementaria, no sustitutiva", por Marta Flich
Si algo nos ha enseñado, no sé si hemos aprendido, pero nos lo ha enseñado, la pandemia y la borrasca Filomena, son dos cosas. La primera es que la solidaridad de la gente está por encima de los discursos de odio apocalípticos y dinamitadores que está lanzando la ultraderecha y el ‘trumpismo’ español.
La segunda es que la solidaridad no puede sustituir las políticas públicas y que las ayudas a zonas catastróficas no pueden valer para que siga instalado un modelo económico de mala gestión en la redistribución de las rentas.
¿Se reforzó la sanidad pública? La respuesta es frágil y va por barrios, por comunidades. En la Comunidad de Madrid ya vemos que este esfuerzo no se ha producido porque es una comunidad libre y apela a la libertad del ciudadano. Tienes la libertad de contagiarte, de contratar un seguro privado, no porque tu quieras sino porque te han desmantelado lo público. La libertad de ir hacinado en el metro, de limpiar tu propia nieve, y todos sabemos que nada te hace sentir más libre que coger una pala en la calle y sentirte útil.

Villarejo: "Debo ser el único idiota de este país en denunciar al director del CNI"
El juzgado de lo Penal número 8 de Madrid ha dado inicio este viernes al primer juicio del excomisario José Manuel Villarejo como acusado por calumnias al exdirector del Centro Nacional de Inteligencia (CNI)Félix Sanz Roldán, en el que está previsto que declare como testigo la empresaria Corinna Larsen. La Fiscalía pide para él dos años de prisión, menos tiempo del que lleva en preventiva.
Sí, el antiguo uniformado se ha sentado en el banquillo no por alguna de las innumerables piezas que se han ido abriendo en la Audiencia Nacional a partir de los audios intervenidos en su domicilio y con los que políticos y empresas querían investigar a sus competidores, sino por supuestamente decir lo que no era verdad. Tras cuatro anulaciones, hoy era el día.

Pablo Casado, líder del Partido Popular, en una visita a la sede del 112, el centro de coordinación de emergencias, ha respaldado la gestión de Isabel Díaz Ayuso por su gestión del histórico temporal en Madrid.
“Transparencia, la cercanía y la eficacia”, así ha descrito Casado la gestión de la presidenta de la Comunidad de Madrid, argumentando que el 4 de diciembre el Gobierno madrileño se dirigió por carta a los Ayuntamientos de la región instándoles a hacer acopio de sal.

Let’s start with the obvious: 2020 was a massively disappointing year, right from the jump. In January, we learned that 162 billionaires have the same wealth as half of humanity, and that we’d just muddled through the hottest decade on record. Then, February came and the coronavirus pandemic began to touch all of us.
But amid all our struggles, there were glimmers of hope in the form of actual good news. (We know, it’s hard to believe.)

Sir Anthony Hopkins reflected upon 45 years of sobriety and shared several uplifting words in an inspiring short video posted to his Twitter feed on Wednesday.
The 82-year-old Academy Award-winning Welsh actor, known for playing a wide variety of roles ranging from Hannibal Lector in “The Silence of the Lambs” to the Norse god Odin in Marvel’s “Thor” films, acknowledged that 2020 had been a difficult year full of pain and sadness for many.
“But 45 years ago today, I had a wake-up call,” Hopkins said. “I was headed for disaster. I was drinking myself to death. I’m not preachy, but I got a message. A little thought that said, ‘Do you want to live or die?’ And I said, ‘I want to live.’ And suddenly the relief came and my life has been amazing.”
Hopkins acknowledged that he had his “off days and sometimes little bits of doubt and all that,” but encouraged everyone watching to stay positive despite the hardship of a year defined by a global pandemic.
“Today is the tomorrow you were so worried about yesterday,” Hopkins said. “You young people, don’t give up. Just keep in there. Keep fighting. Be bold and mighty forces will come to your aid. That’s sustained me through my life.”

We’re taking a break from trying to figure out if one of Taylor Swift’s new songs is about Harry Styles to officially deem him the most stylish celebrity of 2020.
You’d either have to be living under rock or be Candace Owens (or both) to not feel Styles’ fashion force in music videos, at award shows and on the cover of Vogue this year.
His willingness to dress however he damn well pleases is an inspiration to all “manly men,” women-ly women and people in general. Whether in pearls or polka dots, billowy trousers or bucket hats, he radiates joy, freedom of self-expression and style.

"My granddaughter came out five weeks ago," writes HuffPost guest writer Maryann Durmer. "When I heard the news, I texted her: 'I talked to your dad last night. I’m so happy you came out, and I support you 100%. I just wanted to stop by and tell you I love you. If there’s anything I can do to help you, I’m here.'
"I spent the past six months thinking she might be transitioning, and it brought me great relief to see her reveal herself as the vibrant young woman she envisioned and was destined to be."
"I am a 75-year-old, white, heterosexual cisgender woman who was raised in an authoritarian home," writes Durmer. "I attended 12 years of Catholic school in a middle-class white Bronx neighborhood...I was raised to believe that I would go to heaven if I followed my faith’s rules, and that those who did not follow the rules would not get into heaven."
"Like many others, I realized that organized religion messed me up and that I needed to rethink my biases and understanding of sexuality and gender," Durmer explains. "Brainwashing takes time to undo."
"When it’s your grandchild who is transgender, it’s complicated," writes Durmer. "I worry that I may do or say something wrong by accident. Saying a new name after knowing a person for 20-plus years isn’t easy. It’s not just about my granddaughter changing. It’s also that I have no 'how-to' manual for processing my memories of my former grandson. All I know is that I love my granddaughter."
"To be a grandparent is one of the most beautiful roles in life that a person can achieve. To accept and love your grandchildren ― unconditionally ― is an amazing experience. I only had one grandparent, but she showed me unconditional love every time I visited, and I can still picture those special moments we shared."
"I cannot walk in my granddaughter’s shoes, but I can do my best to continue reaching out with kindness and acceptance, praying that she is protected from the hate and intolerance often expressed openly by people in the state where she lives," Durmer says. "I hope that she can move forward in the way that is most meaningful to her."

"Dear Dominique, I vow to give you a debt-free life...I vow to build a life of financial wholeness. I Do!" writes HuffPost guest writer Dominique Jackson. "Wouldn’t it be nice if I said that to myself in the mirror as I started my debt-free journey? I didn’t, but you can make those promises to yourself starting today."⠀
⠀
"I graduated from a private art school in Chicago with roughly $30,000 in debt. In 2020, the student debt crisis hit a record high," writes Jackson. "Here’s a rough breakdown of how much student loan debt I was in as of August 2019. Before I got serious about paying off my debt, I made minimum payments. Overall, I estimate that I had already paid nearly $30,000 in student debt. Consolidated, subsidized loan: $17,239.60. Consolidated, unsubsidized: $10,992.21."⠀
⠀
"I used the 'avalanche method' to pay down debt, Jackson says. "Here’s a breakdown according to CNBC: You pay off the balance with the highest interest rate first, then work your way through all your debt from highest to lowest interest rate. Some financial experts prefer this method because you end up paying less overall in interest."⠀
⠀
"When I submitted my last payment, all I could do was breathe deeply. It felt like a weight I never knew, but I ultimately felt the burden was lifted off me," Jackson writes. "With the student debt crisis out of control and 2020 being a nonstop roller coaster, I decided to celebrate this personal milestone by doing a debt-free photo shoot." ⠀
⠀
"Our culture continually celebrates women for who they are and what they do for everyone else. We celebrate women for marriage and having babies, all which I desire. But this isn’t a story about my desires. It’s about celebrating women for accomplishing paying off debt, buying a home or starting a business, or doing whatever to become her most genuine and authentic self — all of which are worthy of celebration." ⠀

On Dec. 13, Billy Loredo, a lawyer from Edinburgh, Texas, died from COVID-19 at the age of 45.
But he left his wife of 21 years a bittersweet goodbye — a final love letter.
“He emailed it to me a few days before he was intubated,” Sonya Kypuros, Loredo’s wife, told HuffPost via Facebook, noting that her husband often wrote her romantic notes and brought her “flowers several times a month.”
Kypuros said that she felt “sad and afraid” as she read his words.
“It made me fully aware that he knew he might die,” she said.
“I want you to know that I am fighting very hard every day for my life. I do it for you so that I can see you again,” Loredo’s letter read.
“You are the most important person in my life and I miss you every day. I know I am not always the perfect man I want to be but I do my best,” the message continued. “If I make it through this I promise to be a better man, in God, in life, and as a husband. You have always deserved the best and if I get a second chance I will do it.”
Loredo also heartbreakingly told his wife, “If I don’t make it I want you to know that I lived a happy wonderful life with you and would never have traded it for all the riches in the world. I also want you to be happy and continue to live your life without me and with no regrets.”
“We had our time and it was wonderful. I love you and miss you very much,” the note concluded. “I will keep fighting. Love, Billy.”
“Honestly, I don’t even know what I’m doing,” Kypuros told HuffPost when asked why she decided to publicly share such an intimate note, but ultimately concluded that she wanted “to share with everyone the amazing human being that I had the privilege of being married to.”
“I know I love Bill immensely and he loved me back tremendously,” she added. “So I have been processing this love.”

The task of sniffing out passengers infected with COVID-19 at Chile’s Santiago international airport is going to the dogs.
A team of Golden Retrievers and Labradors sit when they smell the virus and get a treat. The canines sport green ”biodetector” jackets with a red cross.
Passengers at an airport health checkpoint wipe their necks and wrists with gauze pads that are then put in glass containers and sent to the dogs to see if they detect COVID-19.
Sniffer dogs are best-known for finding drugs and explosives but have also previously been trained to detect malaria, cancer and Parkinson’s disease.
Dogs trained to detect the novel coronavirus have already begun sniffing passenger samples at airports in the United Arab Emirates and Finland.
A study recently found dogs can identify infected individuals with 85% to 100% accuracy and rule out infection with 92% to 99% accuracy.

Dwyane Wade is closing out 2020 by reiterating his devotion to being a thoughtful and inclusive dad.
The NBA icon declared his “unconditional love” for his daughter Zaya alongside a pair of recent photos on Instagram. In February, Wade and his wife, Gabrielle Union, introduced Zaya, now 13, to the world as transgender.
“Unconditional love, simply put, is love without strings attached,” Wade wrote on Instagram. “It’s love you offer freely. You don’t base it on what someone does for you in return. You simply love them and want nothing more than their happiness.”
Union, who is Zaya’s stepmother, offered similar sentiments while being profiled for Time’s 100 Most Influential People of 2020 list. Read more in our link in bio. // 📷 Getty Images

Elton John and his husband David Furnish may be celebrating 15 years of relationship bliss, but they haven’t lost sight of what their union represents to the world.
John and Furnish were married at their Windsor estate on Dec. 21, 2014, nine months after same-sex marriage was legalized in England.
The men acknowledged the anniversary of both occasions with throwback photos on Instagram. A Grammy, Oscar and Tony winner, John has been an outspoken LGBTQ rights advocate for the bulk of his career. In his anniversary post Monday, he said he and Furnish were among the “lucky ones” in having been able to tie the knot. Millions of other queer people around the world, he added, did not have access to marriage equality and other rights.
“This is a disgrace,” John wrote. “We all deserve to love who we want. We will continue to fight for equality for all.” Furnish shared similar sentiments. Read more in our link in bio. // 📷 Getty Images

Out of all the industries affected by the COVD-19 pandemic, tourism has been one of the hardest hit. In New York City, many people working in the hospitality, transportation, restaurant and entertainment sectors are using one word: “devastated.”
It’s hard not to agree with them. New York is one of the most-visited tourist destinations in the world. Tourism is a major contributor to the city and state economies and employs more than 400,000 people within the five boroughs. With the onset of the pandemic, tourism in the city came to an almost complete halt, and the familiar shenanigans ― the crowds, the long lines at museums, the restaurants where it’s impossible to get a table ― disappeared with it.
Since the reopening, New York has been slowly coming back to life, as have some elements of the tourism industry.
The photo essay at the link in our bio shows what the city’s tourism looks like now, as it tries to get back to some sense of normalcy. // 📷: @maslovsaslov
