I don't agree, sir.

italian teams are solid, and also the bottom ranking ones are a tough nut to crack.

there are like 8 very good teams (the listed above + atalanta and lazio) fighting for places in europe.

the level is rising. Serie A is obviously not at the Premier level, but overall is above La Liga and Ligue 1 actually.

I’m probably not the best to ask, as I’ve only donated small amounts to where I went to university. For me, it‘s mostly emotional, in that I have really good memories of both my undergrad and graduate universities. I’ve mostly chosen to do so when there’s a particular program/initiative that I care about raising funds.

i think it is easy to think about this in hindsight but the feasibility of a same-sex partnership was low because of the extant economic need to produce children to have help with family business/farming etc. it is only with economic security and social welfare that such partnerships become more feasible and thereby as prevalent as they are today. when the primary purpose of a relationship is partnership/pairwise fulfillment and not producing children to maintain/advance one's economic status, there are more options available.

I'm actually confused at yanks believing in this without any proof.

​

Do you know how viruses work, do you know the labs safety-precausions, do you have any reason to believe they were creating mutations of a virus and if so under such deplorable conditions etc.

I'm not saying it isn't possible, I'm saying it's weird to jump at this so easily. Especially since it really doesn't matter apart from when officials want to shift blame.
