The World Cup will be pumping air conditioning into open air stadiums. Open air. For the first time in my life since keeping World Cup scrapbooks as a child this AC nonsense, links to Trump, etc are making me so disgusted I've lost interest in watching. www.scientificamerican.com/article/outd...

Je lui conseille fortement de ne pas y aller. MSG au plain midtown Manhattan, pendant les playoffs des Knicks, dans les finales... ce ne sont pas des gros fans de lui ni du droite politiquement. You're gonna get booed, pal. Hard.

I'll say it, nobody else will.. I find it pathetic in a world that pretends constantly to care about all women's issues, how many people will do things that continue to sustain the inequalities. Packed stadium for the men's Roland Garros semis. Barely more than half full for the women's.

You can't save people who insist on not being saved and insist on walking into open manhole covers. ...then again Cameron is a Johnson sized twat himself so they can both go back to their posh little drinking society Oxbridge brat world. share.google/Cm0WulB2RDBu...

Always humorous when people who "love tennis" check out the moment the stars are out of any tournament. Same people who buy the most expensive tickets before the semi-finals and just don't go, especially when it's the women's matches. Few sports have more faux fanhood than Tennis.

Does no company, store, shop, service anywhere in any country do ANYthing properly anymore? Is everyone really just so depressed and miserable that they're done giving a toss about anything? #LifeIn2026

Well I'll be a son of a gun. Ya don't say... Say, Mike, while we're making profound discoveries, did you know the earth goes around the sun or is that another obvious no brainer you just realised as well?

This. This was our lives a few times every month when we were living in Canada. It's real and it's horrendous and it's stressful and makes you angry and feel attacked all at the same time. But you know what it doesn't make me? Sick. Or damaging our longterm health. @winslowsp.bsky.social #maskup

"Ideologie anticlimatisation". Plutot, connerie absolue. Les français qui se plaignent, qui crient gaspillage, rechauffement sont les memes qu'en hiver allument les appareils de chauffage les moins efficaces pour rester au chaud. Mais rester au frais? Inacceptable. youtu.be/jf-BwMs23uY?...

"No man should be judged entirely on their last act." Yes. They should. Some men most definitely should. As a New Yorker in my heart for the rest of my life, this pathetic, contemptibly pitiable man should go in the same bottomless pit as William Tweed, Robert Moses, and Jimmy Walker.

The Story of the Sandwich. Spolier Alert: Once again, the Earl of Sandwich did NOT create the first sandwich. Featuring @dranniegray.bsky.social www.bbc.com/audio/play/w... #foodhistory #sandwich

Only here in Paris would a night that lets people in to ANY museum they want for free, lead to everyone going to ALL the same popular museums instead of maybe just once in their lives trying something different and going to learn about something they don't know much about.

To celebrate the bicentennary of diplomatic relations between Mexico and France, the Musee Rodin in Paris will have musical festivities this evening including Cumbia and Reggaeton, the music of Colombia and the Carribean respectively. Maybe they'll serve Brazilian Cachaça!! Que viva Mexico!!

And yet.. with a minimum 6 week incubation period and no way to test for viral presence, not a single one of these "experts" can say this with any scientific certainty. Thus their insistence on saying that this won't get worse looks very misguided at best and suspicious at worst. #MaskUp

And it's all happening right under everyone's noses. And no, no song from Springsteen or snarky little one-liner from Colbert or Kimmel will change anything. You'll have to go to the window, open it, stick your head out and yell: "I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore."

The terror labelling that society treats PPE, masks with is completely counter intuitive to claiming we want to get on top of viruses. And it makes life a living hell for those of us that have to mask. Because that terror gets associated with us and sticks on us like scar. @winslowsp.bsky.social

These stories will all be filed in years to come as "untrue", like the stories of how Covid was and still is mismanaged. But they're happening right under our noses. Until anything happens directly to us, we don't care if things are bad. That's who we are as humans in 2026.

Well then he can help defend his case by getting it and showing us all how he doesn't die. Right?

This isn't going away, no matter how much the news cycle wants to keep singing "Trump", "World Cup", etc etc etc. This will hit eventually. Up to 6 weeks incubation. Clock is ticking. But don't worry, because "this isn't Covid", as if you respect Covid.

Here we go again. ABC will put him on leave/ people will raise their arms in outrage "where's the right to free speech"/ the people will naturally boycott ABC and all its properties/ ABC will see it's stock go down in value/ ABC will offer Kimmel a handsome sum of cash/ Kimmel caves for $$$.

Larry simply is and has been the best and only worthwhile resident of #10.

If any doctor is using AI rather than their education, find another doctor.

Because people think that if they ignore something unpleasant that reminds them of how fundamentally unhappy, depressed, and dissatisified with life they are that thing will go away. And #Covid has proved that something like #Hantavirus CAN be ignored so they can pretend everything's fine.

Tres bien dit. 👏👏👏 Honteux, Mme Rist. @sante.gouv.fr

Incroyable l'insistance par @franceinfo.fr et Patricia Issa de Grandi de refuser complètement de comprendre et accepter la science de son invité Marie-Laure Alby qui essaie de parler de medicine de virologie. Mais eux, ils veulent nier. @winslowsp.bsky.social @maskblocparis.bsky.social

Well, it's a very good thing that Hantavirus only spreads in close contact. Because nobody does that. Tant mieux que le hantavirus se transmet seulement en contact rapproché. Parce que ça, personne le fait. #hantavirus #maskup @chantzy.bsky.social @winslowsp.bsky.social @maskblocparis.bsky.social

Sincèrement je ne sais pas a quel niveau la critique n'a jamais servi a rien a part les analyses entièrement academiques ou uniquement tecniques. Mais le systeme 5 etoiles servait a vendre des journaux et rien d'autre et on est accros aux "reviews" comme si l'art pouvait se critiquer pour tous.

Lecce isn't "Letch", it's "Letch-eh". Kobe isn't "Kohb", it's "Koh-beh". Firenze isn't "Fee-renz", it's "Fee-renz-eh". Ponce isn't "Pons", it's "Pon-seh". So stop pronouncing Tenerife "Ten-er-eef". It's bloody "Ten-er-eef-eh. And no, Ibiza ain't "Eye-beesa" and Los Angeles ain't "Los Angel-eez".

If this is what linkedin was like it would actually be worth a damn. And I'm not in the slightest way joking.

"Should I start masking again because of #hantavirus?" It's been a wise preventive behavior to mask the past 6 years. The U.S. has twice annual COVlD waves. We've dipped into a "lull" after the 12th wave this winter, but we're still at 180,000 estimated new daily infections.

Le pire... Vous etes TOUS les jouets des PDG et dirigeants du foot qui n'ont aucun respect/intérêt pour vous a part votre portefeuille. Et pendant que vous vous bagarrez, ils allument leurs cigares sur leur yachts avec les billets de vos achats. C'est FIFA, avec qui vous devrez tous etre en colère.

I just came across the Shakira World Cup song video and I'm already sick of this World Cup.

@winslowsp.bsky.social @maskblocparis.bsky.social Salut! Est-ce qu'on connait des endroits où on peut se faire couper les cheveux en sécurité (ou au moins en paix) a Paris ou en 92? Merci!

I absolutely love the people saying, "Hanta is nothing heavily contagious like Covid!" while being people who don't (and never did) give a fuck about protecting themselves from Covid. All of a sudden they're the first to take Covid seriously to downplay Hanta. @winslowsp.bsky.social #maskup

The absolutely spectacularly tone-deaf stupidity is back, many of them pointing at Trump's hubristic money flashing extravagance while ignoring their own. Fundraising, my ass. The only thing this raises is celeb clout. You wanna help, celebs? Get your precious little hands involved in something.

Went to a tailor/dry cleaner yesterday to get some chinos hemmed. The woman said: "Oh..you didn't mark where you wanted to have them shortened to?" "Uh, no.. I thought you'd want to measure, the proper way." "Just take a pair that fit well and mark where you want them" "No. I think we're done here."

A guy is working outside with a leaf blower (one of the world's most awful inventions) and clicking the power button on and off and I am thoroughly and deeply reminded of this... @ekenskis.bsky.social

Hegseth: "There's a reason we call Iran the number one state sponsor of terrorism. Because they took the money they make and they invest it in tunnels and they invest it in missiles and in launchers and UAVs. They've spent that money instead of investing in their people." Oh, you mean..like the US?

Humanity is using nature 1.8 times faster than ecosystems can regenerate. From today until the end of the year, France is living beyond its ecological means. That's nothing. Finland had their overshoot day a month ago. The worst? Qatar. Surprise, surprise. www.france24.com/en/france-re...

Those of us who are railway aficionados (aka nerds) find this kind of thing fascinating.

A very, very wise reminder (and good read) to be diligent about what you give money to when you support big named companies. It's not enough to see 98% recycled plastic, #sustainable, or even "bio" on a food or product. Real ethics means checking their production and corporate practices. #wine

Sometimes, just every now and then, nature does the job itself of serving up just desserts and providing what Orson Welles' masterpiece The Magnificent Ambersons called "comeuppance". Good riddance. One less hubristic bravado laden human on this planet to account for the animals he's killed.

Teach a man to fish, you feed him for life. Give a Trump administration person their own foot, they'll shove it in their mouths.

They need to. But they won't. Because the part they and nobody else wants to acknowledge is that not enough of them care about the injustices that don't affect them. It's awful, it's unbelievable. But nobody does anything. And those who do like Ruffalo, @johncusack.bsky.social get ignored.

Quite.

The Constitution says ‘Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.’ Courts say that includes the executive. Hence, this Oval Office prayer is off-limits. You want religion? Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. - Matthew 6:1
