My office mate and I were talking about the office across the hall which has three women and is very girly-coded, I said to her that ours is very different even through we're two women together, and she called ours a PSYCHEDELIC HOSPITAL I'm dying 😭

Dans une tribune parue aujourd'hui dans Libération, j'explique pourquoi les conditions du recours à une loi spéciale ne sont pas réunies. La Constitution prévoit expressément la marche à suivre pour la situation que nous traversons.

LEGIFRANCE IS DOWN. I REPEAT: LEGIFRANCE IS DOWN

I have reached my full form of "Turkish auntie 🧿"™️ - I audibly gasped when I saw her holding the plushie and smiling and I turned around to tell someone "I GOT THAT FOR HER" but there was nobody so now all of the interwebs has to know

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

If the circled part of her notes took Başak one thousand words and 3 days to write, how long will the rest of the chapter take? Show your answer.

I wrote so many emails today... SO many emails. I even wrote some emails that won't be sent for a week.

I spoke about the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation and the future plans for the reconstruction of Gaza in a podcast episode. Not claiming to have any hot takes but I encourage you to listen how I pronounce Israel with my heavy Slavic accent - have fun! open.spotify.com/episode/2k4O...

Philippe Pétain a été déchu de tous ses titres, c'est pourquoi il est impropre de lui attribuer encore la dignité de maréchal. En revanche, il convient désormais de se référer au général (et non plus au capitaine ou au colonel) Alfred Dreyfus. La Nation s'honore en réparant cette injustice.

Comrades, the moving labour collective is oraganising its third summer camp, this time in Malmö: June 14-17. We are hoping to create a space where labour scholars, lawyers, activists, unionists will collectively work on intersectional solidarity praxis and organising strategies. Come join us!

Pretty much no one can make their ideas clear to others on the 1st attempt. The two main reactions are "let's painstakingly clarify this with some back and forth", and "doesn't matter as long as the various interpretations are themselves interesting", leading to the 2 main branches of philosophy.

I don't think it is an exaggeration to say that there will be a Before Lux and After Lux in pop music

Absolutely fucked that I now have to consent to an AI scanning my data to improve Wiley’s systems in order to publish in a top journal. As if they don’t profit enough from hosting my intellectual property. My data is now a training pipeline.

Our goal has been reached 😭 Dr. Badah and his family now have a real chance to relocate to France! We have also increased the goal to 55k to help 4 Gazan students to secure places in French universities, which require 8.5K EUR per student for the first year.
