Quand ce type aura perdu le pouvoir, et ça pourrait ne pas tarder, on dressera le bilan. Et ce sera l'un des plus lourds et des plus noirs de l'histoire des démocraties, si l'on peut encore donner ce nom à l'autocratie népotique que sont devenus les États-Unis. www.lemonde.fr/planete/arti...

Bonjour vous avez peut-être remarqué que je ne m’exprime quasi plus depuis 6 mois j’avais décidé de laisser une chance de s’arrêter à Marie Peltier, Stéphanie Lamy, “julie haviland” et Faiza ça n’a pas été le cas je vais donc sortir 2 vidéos sur ce qu’elles ont fait rdv demain 19h 1/3

As a teacher of English, I can definitively state that yes, this is exactly what happened. Particularly, the curse words. ◡̈

Très intéressant ! Merci !

Just a little PSA- Neil Gaiman has reactivated his Bluesky account. Because he deactivated before a lot of people could unfollow him, and/or because Bluesky doesn’t remove you from a person’s followers when you block them, a LOT of you are still publicly listed as following him. You should check.

TransPerfect has just told its interpreters, in writing, how it assigns your work. "Prioritization will be closely aligned with rates. " Whoever charges least gets the call. "This is not a reflection of your performance. " Skill is explicitly not a factor.

Depuis le décès de ma sœur, plusieurs personnes de ma famille ont changé de photo de profil pour en mettre une où on les voit avec elle. Je sais que c'est pour lui rendre hommage mais... ça me fend le cœur à chaque message. Pendant un instant, je crois que c'est elle, et puis je me rappelle que non

This is an email that was sent to vendors of a language services company. I've never worked for that company (in fact, I've repeatedly made fun of the poor French translations on their previous website) but I know of at least 2 people who got it. Well at least they're being... candid? 🤢

Rappel de quelques bases : - on ne traverse pas un troupeau qui n'est pas le sien, jamais - une petite vache pèse 500 kg, peut courir à des pointes de 40km/h (pas toi) et a une capacité réelle à être de mauvais poil - non, les humains ne sont pas tout puissants ni maîtres de tous les territoires

I had to check because, well you know…

This is getting ridiculous. STOP THIS

It’s easy to believe these people are just stupid, but it’s not that simple. It’s more like a religious belief, where they will accept any statement that aligns with their beliefs, and the more you try and convince them otherwise, the more they believe you’re part of the conspiracy.

Irish early summer is just Irish winter but with more daylight hours to stare at the rain

The Guardian have made a list for people who like to tell us how many books they've read. www.theguardian.com/books/ng-int...

Funny things still happen over at the bad place This guy put a prompt in his LinkedIn and now AI recruiters are writing him in Old English and calling him "my lord"

Interesting to see the majority of the Dáil still consider women to be hysterical creatures who can't be trusted to know their own minds.

Résumez votre méthode de travail en un gif.

And this is not the first time freelancers are facing delayed payments from ZOO. In addition to not paying their freelancers on time, ZOO Digital is offering contracts with provisions that prohibit their translators from joining unions - a condition that is clearly illegal in the EU. 3/x

The reason your Netflix subscription is so cheap is that someone in Lisbon, Warsaw or Madrid has not been paid since January.

Would be good if performers, musicians, writers, and other creative workers insisted on organisers not using genAI for advertising festivals, shows and events they're taking part in, in solidarity with visual artists, because it's absolutely everywhere at the moment. We need to stick together!

The hilarious thing about this is that he agreed with everything this woman said, tried his best to placate her, and it still wasn't enough. It's never enough for these people. As soon as you agree with them on one thing, they start fucking moaning about something else they saw on Facebook.

Toujours m'écouter quand je conseille un roman ^^

J'ai fait ce test hier, toujours dans l'idée d'utiliser mes chutes de verres. Un petit bouquet de "fleurs" aléatoires, il sera pour ma maman du coup. Ça vous dit que j'en mette sur la boutique ?

Ne dites pas n’importe quoi @envoyespecial.bsky.social @francetelevisions.bsky.social ! Non, la dépression ne touche pas 1 ado sur 3 ! C’est plutôt 1,3% des 10-14 ans et 3,4% des 15-19 ans ! Et contrairement à ce qui est dit dans votre reportage, la dépression se soigne et peut guérir. 1/2

A mild thought. Women really like: • Men who actually listen and are interested. • Men who do their share of the chores without being asked. • Men who are reasonably well-groomed and smell nice. They're not all that interested in guys who have attached spacehoppers.

Your occasional gentle reminder that, on Bluesky, hitting Like on posts does not increase the number of people who'll see them. If you want to amplify a post here, you need to repost, not just Like, it. ps please repost this one!

Can we stop giving billionaires more money?

The wildest thing about the release of new files on UFOs is that Donald Trump was mentioned in the Epstein files over 38,000 times.

Gonna light this baby and just pretend.....

106 years ago today, on May 7th, an undergraduate at Christchurch College, Oxford, drank a glass of port then left through the main gates for a walk. I've been thinking about him, & his walk, for years now. It's taken a long time for me to figure out why - why I've kept returning, near obsessed.

The truth, I think, is more tragic. He has realised that the old Toad, the one who danced with happiness when his friends arrived, who threw himself into new adventures with optimism & ecstatic zeal, who was open & honest, is unwelcome. Toad has learned to mask.

Literally the best email I've ever received. No notes.

But you can bet I'm going to be calling things absolute horses from now on.

Rappel : Comme il l'est dit ici dans l'intro (vers 3'15") Aberkane a dû son succès à la pub que lui ont faite certaines grands médias trop complaisants. Quand on cause de désinformation et complotisme, on aime bien pointer du doigt le compte Facebook de Mme Michu qui croit aux chemtrails... 1/2

I get a lot of AI slop book marketing emails, but this is the first time I have ever been . . . mistaken for Jane Austen.

Brendan just used the phrase "Overton envelope", and I've had enough. This is so pathetic, it's unreal. If the show can't get the simplest, most basic things right, then it should not touch these subjects.
