Got great seats to this again.

We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps: - It’s ‘voilà,’ not ‘wallah!’ - It’s ‘a lot,’ not ‘alot.’ - It’s ‘further ado,’ not ‘farther adieu.’ - It’s ‘flesh out,’ not ‘flush out.’ - It’s ‘sneak peek,’ not ‘sneak peak.’ No worries if not!!!

Très heureuse d’accueillir à l’Hôtel de Ville des jeunes venus de toute l’Europe, dont de nombreux Ukrainiens, réunis à Paris à l’occasion de la grande rencontre européenne organisée par la communauté de Taizé.

Always and forever, my fave sign at Dublin Airport #LookUp #DublinAirport

“You guys, Hitler wants to see Poland succeed”

A reminder: Russia doesn’t want/need Donbas; it isn’t historically/ethnically special. Ru wants all of Ukraine. Receiving the heavily fortified Donbas towns it couldn’t conquer for 11+ yrs on a silver platter from Trump would allow Ru an easier 2nd march on Kyiv. That’s what Pu is focusing on now.

Excellent on-the-ground reporting by @thexylom.com, the Atlanta-based, international, science and health newsroom. How USAID’s withdrawal from Zimbabwe fueled a black market in HIV medication.

Unmuted an account of someone who posts tweets 🙄 and was reminded of why I muted the account in the first place.

Carol of the Bells in # Kyiv subway. Voices of the Embassies of Germany, France, and the United Kingdom came together to perform Shchedryk in the Kyiv metro as a sign of solidarity with Ukraine. Thankful to everyone who stands with us!

Happy Xmas #FortyFoot #MadSwimmers

EU citizen dies while being detained by US federal paramilitaries

American social media platforms are banned in Russia. Have you noticed Donald isn't sanctioning anyone over that?

Same with the protests in Bulgaria-- they were anti-budget/anti-corruption/pro-EU and twitter was flooded w claims they were anti-euro adoption and anti-EU. Despite the EU flags protestors waved in support of the euro. The amount of anti-EU propaganda by Ru bots and MAGA on twitter is massive.

PS Macron announced the commission of a new aircraft carrier yesterday

Welcome back to Dublin Airport to Christmas carollers singing I Don’t Like Mondays 😍

“These men risked their lives to speak with us. We have a moral and professional obligation to the sources who entrusted us with their stories. Abandoning them now is a betrayal of the most basic tenet of journalism: giving voice to the voiceless.”

I am delighted to see Minnie Driver on #emilyinparis but MICHELE LAROQUE!!! Delighted!!

The women in this 1964 photo of Beatles fans (yes, that's what they used) could not get a credit card at Bank of America without their husband or father cosigning. So, no. The answer, CBS and Bank of America, is no.

Why decline all these chances to defend feminism? Because to participate would be accepting the premise that our rights and humanity are up for debate in the first place. Once you’ve conceded that it’s reasonable to ask whether women’s equality was a mistake, you’ve already lost.

It was such a joy to celebrate Hanukkah with Mandy, Kathryn and their son, Gideon. As Jewish New Yorkers across our city prepare to light candles and mark the seventh night today, I wish you and your families a Hanukkah full of light and love. youtu.be/KIxAKyioXng

Alors que la droite parisienne a voulu priver nos librairies indépendantes de subventions, Paris renouvelle son soutien aux librairies indépendantes qui participent à la grande richesse culturelle de notre capitale. Parmi elles, Violette and Co, librairie féministe, lesbienne et queer du 11e.

Meanwhile in Russia: inspired by the Trump administration’s anti-European stance, state TV host Vladimir Solovyov predicted that Russian and American combat troops will jointly storm European cities. youtu.be/3PWkEmc0we0?...

So Rubio started wondering whether Putin maybe wants all of Ukraine. Well, I'll be damned. That's like wondering whether water is wet.

In Boston, we like our protests with a whole lot of history. #teaparty #dumpICE #Dec16

Remember DVD menus? We have This Is Spinal Tap all queued up (waiting for the others) and the chat alone is funny. #SpinalTap

Rob and Michele Reiner, may their memories be a blessing. Our Christmas Eve movie is The Princess Bride.

His name is Ahmed al Ahmed. He’s 42, father of two, and owns a Sydney fruit shop. His relatives say he had no experience handling guns. He was shot twice, not in this video, but is expected to survive. www.news.com.au/national/nsw...

Call to activism This is so f*cking embarassing. The Mayor of Providence had to tell Americans not to trust any news that isn’t released from official Providence sources because the president of the United States spread misinformation. This is the worst timeline.

lol it’s so genuinely fun seeing Cory take decades of fluency in how these systems are broken and serve it up for a mainstream audiences. Even if you know “enshittification” well, this is worth the watch. And love to @eff.org! youtu.be/d2e-c9SF5nE

Honestly it’s like a magnet for people who can’t drive

Despite years of sanctions and export controls, U.S.-made electronic components — which have unique markings and cannot be copied — continue to appear in Russian cruise missiles and drones.

Why is there always an accident on the Antwerp ring road? #belgique

lol AI walker photo hits the top of Reddit. I hope he sees it.

The European Union hasn’t won the FIFA Peace Prize, but it has won the Nobel Peace Prize. With reason. (Some of our members have won the FIFA World Cup.) 🇪🇺🕊️ ht @pablopereza.bsky.social

Dec. 10, 1775: At a social function in Cambridge, Mass., American Gen. Charles Lee has one of his many dogs perform the “shaking hands” trick. “He orderd Mr. Sparder to mount and present his paw to me for a better acquaintance,” writes Abigail Adams. “I could not do otherways than accept it.”

Hey world, maybe watch the World Cup and the Olympics on TV, yeah?

Et La France ?

According to the Kremlin, the GOP supports Russia’s vision.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard Mode: No Star Wars, Marvel etc #SpeirGorm

For poetry makes nothing happen. It survives In the valley of its making where executives Would never want to tamper, flows on south From the ranches of isolation and the busy griefs, Raw towns that we believe and die in; it survives, A way of happening, a mouth. (Auden on Yeats)

sweet spring is your time Is my time is our time for springtime is lovetime and viva sweet love

Two days after Witkoff and Kushner met Putin, the Treasury Department partially suspended sanctions on Russia announced last October www.france24.com/en/live-news...

We're also hiring for a YouTube-focused producer to adapt our longform investigative journalism into mid-length videos for the platform. All the details and application here:

They are beating people who maybe once had a broken taillight and sending them to foreign slave prisons while freeing the worst fraudsters and every corrupt pol. The juxtaposition is so stark and appalling.
