Italian student gets tattoo of COVID-19 vaccine certificate barcode on arm

Aug 25 2021

As people get used to carrying around a COVID-19 vaccination certificate to do all sorts of daily things, an Italian student has went the extra mile to avoid all the hassle. Andrea Colonnetta from Reggio Calabria got inked with his COVID-19 vaccine certificate’s barcode on his bicep. He told newsroom Corriere della Calabria that its certainly something original and he likes being different. As many are going against the certificate and vaccination itself, Colonnetta has worn his vaccination proof to both ease his certificate use and remember this iconic moment in history.

The student even showed how the tattoo worked as he scanned the barcode to enter a fast-food joint. The video went absolutely viral on TikTok, dividing the internet as the whole vaccination situation has been doing so far. Some pointed to it as a publicity stunt, but Andrea seems to be enjoying easy access to everything from cinemas, museums and restaurants.

Sexual content will NOT be banned by OnlyFans

Aug 25 2021

The tides have turned as OnlyFans decided to suspend its planned pornography ban following immense criticism. Only nudity was going to remain allowed on the subscriber-based platform as of October 1st, with any other sexually explicit content being destined for outright banning. However, with sex workers, who relied on it for steady income, sounding their concerns, the company announced its U-turn decision. A Twitter statement revealed how, thanks to everyone making their voices heard, the necessary assurances to support ‘diverse creator community’ have been secured.

The suspension is currently in the air as to whether it will be permanent or whether it will be reintroduced at a later date. Founder Tim Stokely said that the short answer for the ban was made to safeguard funds and subscriptions from increasingly unfair actions by banks and media companies. This suspension was still met with criticism however, as many pointed out that the decision to disregard sex workers initially shouldn’t warrant people returning to the platform.

WATCH: Energy Minister announces new tariffs for charging electric cars

Aug 25 2021

Energy Minister Miriam Dalli announced new tariffs for large electric cars to be charged from private garages or home, as well as charging pillars for carparks and/or street parking spaces. This came with the launch of the National Policy on the Infrastructure of charing pillars in our country as it aims to have cleaner transport on our islands. Split into two categories, one for residential buildings and others for public spaces, the tariffs will allow electric car owners to apply to have a special electric meter installed costing €50 for single phase and €80 for a person who applies for three phases.

The tariff applies to off-peak hours, between noon and 4pm at midnight, 6am everyday and a whole day on Sunday. Dalli said that Malta is regularising this market before it starts to even develop. This clear framework will catch the eye of investors to show where the country is heading. She also pointed out how out of 168 weekly hours, drivers are offered 84, which is much more than a driver needs to charge his battery cheaply.

The Danish and UEFA medics were highly praised for their immediate reaction in going to help Christian when he collapsed. The medics did an outstanding job in not only reacting quickly but doing everything in their power to keep Christian alive. Denmark captain, Simon Kjær, was also praised for the way he handled the situation. Even though one of his closest friends was in danger of dying, he still managed to regroup his team and take care of Christian’s wife and family.

Eriksen had this to say after the winners were announced, “I would like to thank Morten [Skjoldager], Morten [Boesen] and the medical team who helped in Parken on 12 June. You did a fantastic job and saved my life. “Also, a big thanks to my friend and captain Simon and my teammates in the Danish team for your support, both on 12 June and afterwards. Thanks to all the fans who have sent messages to me and my family. It means a lot and has given us strength and support. Thank you.”
