Who we are
Elena and Alessandro, as known as Elettrona and Gifter. We met on line at the beginning of 2019 and now are in a deep, long-lasting friendship.
What to expect
We write about HIV stigma in an unconventional way: we publish fictional stories set in the Positive (Poz) World and maintain the “real-world” blog with personal experiences, entertainment suggestions, and true stories.
The site was originally built in Italian so we can’t guarantee simultaneous translations of every post and every story in a short time.
Latest updates in real time
This section contains latest updates in real time, regardless of the area they’re posted in.
Recently published in Poz World
Bugdom town and university
Bugdom is the fake town where the Positive (Poz) World’s characters live and develop.
The university, International Bugdom University Of Life (IBUOL) with its Campus is the main aggregation point for all of them, as its research center is the place where IBUOL’s scientists have managed to grow an HIV virus capable of human feelings.
Bugdom Talks
News, Gossip, Politics and unsolved misteries: Bugdom’s administration attempts to discontinue the service by its censorship power, as Bugdom Talks is the only newspaper readable by humans and viruses, so the University offered its help to maintain this resource alive.
Poz Tales
Poz Tales: HIV-satirical reinterpretation of some famous fairy tales and TV characters. If the telling of fairy tales has changed along with society over the centuries, why not make them understandable by young viruses as well?
Real World: our personal blog
This is the place where we share experiences and reflections especially related to HIV or empowerment of women and LGBT+ people with or without disabilities.
Rather than our personal lives we give attention to real stories we have learned about, advice on what to read or listen to, and events we attend online or in-person.
