Plus je vieillis plus j'ai du mal avec les réseaux sociaux mais sans, on est coupés de plein de gens donc je retente l'expérience. Et j'en profite pour ne pas juste raconter ma life mais faire de la réclame pour mon petit bouquin d'histoire sorti en juin dernier aux éditions du Monde libertaire

Just got a call from my (adult) daughter saying she's been disgustingly cat-called by a couple of guys in a car... So disgusting yet so banal On the upside, they then had to stop at a red light and she took a photo of the number plate, and she's currently planning her revenge, so...

Ngl I am finding the complete normalisation of neonazis in public life and parliamentary politics quite triggering and terrifying.

Étrange, on n'a pas vu le #Figaro titrer : « Ceuta, la consécration de la défaite de l'extrême-droite identitaire » 🤔

Curious to see where the Tice and Farage financial misconduct investigations will go, especially in comparison with French investigations and trials for Marine Le Pen and Sarkozy. It seems clear that French voters are largely indifferent to proven financial misconduct by 'anti-elite' figures 1/3

So it's farewell to the History subject area at the University of Hertfordshire, not the first nor the last to go. One of the best departments in the country, just extinguished like a snap of the fingers. Think of the waste. (1/2)

If soccer should never be for sale, why do we allow land, food, healthcare, housing, education, and everything else we need to be sold?

In defense of the Humanities, with a different angle: any of my first-year Business and French students would know what Infantino seemingly didn’t - make sure you have the right organisational and intercultural knowledge before you undertake a massive strategic/ financial overhaul.

UEFA’s Jerry Maguire moment - beautiful! (So refreshing to hear that some highly lucrative things are not for sale)

Un essai cinglant et éclairant. Ca fait du bien par où ça passe.

Oldest trick in the book - privatization of profits, socialization of losses (while describing ‘socialism’ as the purest form of evil of course).

‘Anthropic described the project as “our effort to disruptively scan all the world’s books” in an internal memo, which noted “we do not want it to be known that we are pursuing this project”.’

Alors que nos pompiers luttent contre les megafeux et que les mers souffrent de canicule marine, TotalEnergies a annoncé ce matin le développement d'un nouveau champ d'hydrocarbures en pleine Méditerranée. Cela s'appelle littéralement jeter de l'essence sur le brasier climatique.

And particularly wild for all of us witnessing the destruction of Classics as an a academic subject. See also: English lit and « Wuthering Heights » a few months ago.

Holiday in the climate emergency. No that’s not AI or edited, just a snapshot I just took with my phone on Lacanau beach in France. What future will this boy grow up in? It is in our hands, but time is running out.

Ce serait quand même plus rationnel d’augmenter massivement les budgets liés à l’effondrement climatique et ses effets que de se concentrer exclusivement sur la défense, épisode 2500.
