I cannot tell you how absolutely infuriatingly this stuff comes across to Europeans.

When we say America is no longer a reliable ally, it goes considerably deeper than Donald Trump himself. This kind of complacent, condescending shit is a *huge* part of it.

Pour jauger du niveau du délire actuel aux USA, des agents ICE (qui arrête n'importe qui d'un peu "coloré") ont arrêté une femme policier en civil (car pas en service), et l'ont violemment empêchée de filmer la scène.

Exceptionnellement, je prends ma casquette d'avocat spécialisé en droit du travail :
Cet arrêt est important puisqu'il instaure le fait que le néonazisme ne relève pas d'une opinion librement exprimable dans sa vie privée mais peut constituer 1 violation du code d'éthique et de respect interne.

Salut nazi & droit du travail : Licencier un salarié pour un salut nazi fait dans un stade de football est justifié.

Même si ce geste (sanctionné pénalement) a eu lieu hors du temps de travail.

Vue l’importance pour l'entreprise des « valeurs de respect des droits de l'homme ».

=> bit.ly/3YPtZ1C
En l'espèce, la société [8] reproche à M. [M] aux termes de la lettre de licenciement d'avoir effectué un salut nazi lors d'un match de football [Localité 6]-[Localité 7] le 22 août 2021. La matérialité de ces faits n'est pas contestée par M. [M], d'autant que le salarié a été condamné pour ces faits par le tribunal correctionnel de Nice le 13 octobre 2021. (...) En l'espèce, M. [M] était soumis à une obligation particulière d'éthique, d'intégrité et de respect d'autrui, et notamment des religions, posée par le code de bonne conduite du groupe, afin, au regard de poste de VRP qu'il occupait, de véhiculer une image positive de la société qu'il représentait. En effectuant un salut nazi, M. [M] a manifestement enfreint cette charte de bonne conduite, à laquelle il avait adhéré en signant le contrat de travail. Bien que relevant de la sphère professionnelle de M. [M], ces faits pouvaient donc être pris en considération par l'employeur dans le cadre d'un licenciement pour faute. (...) Quel que soit le nombre de personnes ayant visionné la vidéo litigieuse et ayant reconnu M. [M] comme l'auteur du geste pénalement répréhensible, la société [8] démontre que les faits reprochés à M. [M] ont eu un impact immédiat au sein de l'entreprise, dans la mesure où des salariés ont exprimé leur indignation et le fait qu'ils ne souhaitaient plus être en présence de leur collègue, et emportaient le risque d'un impact futur, dans l'hypothèse où des clients et partenaires en étaient informés. Au regard de l'importance pour la société [8] de faire régner au sein de sa société et auprès des partenaires des valeurs de respect des droits de l'homme, importance manifestée par l'obligation faite à tous les salariés de signer une charte éthique, les agissements reprochés à M. [M] revêtaient un degré de gravité tel qu'ils rendaient impossible son maintien dans la société, y compris durant le temps du préavis.

Fin 2025, Donald Trump déconseillait le paracétamol aux femmes enceintes, évoquant sans preuve des risques de malformations ou d’autisme pour leur enfant.

Cette affirmation n'est étayée par rien.
Les études les plus récentes (la dernière est du 16/01/2026) continuent de confirmer son innocuité

Relato de fórum em que a pessoa diz que: Accidentally said "Love you!" at the end of a call with an important client yesterday. I heard him giggle as I hung up, and I was mortified. Today, I saw he emailed me this: “Subject: "Love you!" Hey - Just wanted to say that I didn't mean to laugh at you when you accidentally signed off on our call with a "love you." I just found it funny because I've definitely done that before, and I know it happens. I'm glad you have enough love in your life that that response comes naturally. If anything, you should be proud of that :) Have a great weekend! We'll follow up about my call with Chris on Wednesday, as discussed.”

Ayyyy this is what a clearcut violation of ethical research principles looks like. I've taken more than the usual number of research ethics courses and every single one of them emphasized that you cannot ethically withhold a known beneficial treatment as part of your research - let alone using KIDS

According to The Guardian, one of the two studies, the Pathways Trial, will randomly divide some 226 participants between the ages of 10 and 16 into two groups. One will receive puberty blocking medication immediately, while the second will receive the medication after a year. Participants' quality of life, emotional well-being, and physical development will be compared to those of a third group, which will not receive puberty blockers.

This documentary has just been broadcast in France, and I burst out laughing during this scene.

Trump's first reaction when he learns that a proposed ceasefire in Ukraine is accepted by Zelensky, last May, is to think that he will receive a Nobel Prize......................................... lol

Newly released footage by France, from May 10, 2025 shows Trump’s reaction after President Macron informed him President Zelensky accepted his proposed 30-day ceasefire.

Macron: “Zelensky accepted your proposal for a 30-day ceasefire.”
Trump: “Oh, good. Nobel Prize please!”

I’ve talked about this before, but I also trained in grummelot clowning and aside from being very good at moving your acting focus into your body not your thoughts, it really helps you understand how the intent of a vocal line can come through no matter what you say:

Italian voice actor Carlo Bononi was the voice of all of the characters on Pingu. A trained clown by trade, he used a theater technique called grammelot, which consists of "speaking" in a mix of babbled gibberish noises. He improvised all the voices live and unscripted.

It's so exhausting to to be constantly told by American leaders that the defining policy of the 80 odd years during which the US became the most wealthy and powerful country in the history of the world was a grossly unfair failure for them.

Le seul problème de syntaxe qu'Alain Finkielkraut a trouvé chez Adèle Haenel c'est que c'est une femme qui n'aime pas les violences sexuelles dans le milieu du cinéma
Alain Finkielkraut : "La langue française évolue, d'accord, mais on peut juger cette évolution" En membre zélé de l'Académie française, il s'inquiète aussi des évolutions de la langue française : "Au moment où la France est en train de changer de visage, elle se dépouille rageusement d'elle-même. Voyez la langue, voyez ce que devient la langue française. Je voudrais vous citer par exemple l'actrice Adèle Haenel, qui dit : 'Si moi, en tant que femme blanche, je ne fais pas un travail de déconstruction sur comment j'ai été construite, sur comment j'ai été construite, alors je me fais le véhicule du racisme.' Ce galimatias idéologique, cet effondrement de la syntaxe, c'est un peu la France d'aujourd'hui."

I can’t speak for everyone, but my mind tends to treat writing an article, making a video, writing a song, cooking a meal, drawing an image, and, apparently, designing software the same way. It’s not a matter of just “generating” something perfect from my head, but exploring the tension that exists between what I’m imagining and the limitations of my stupid meat body. That’s actually the exciting part. It also lets me figure out if something has turned out wrong or just resulted in a happy accident. Vibe coding, like every new trend coming out of Silicon Valley, turns this process — the entire act of creativity, itself — into a slot machine. One more pull on the AI and maybe it will figure it out for you. You won’t understand how any of it works, of course, or feel particularly proud of what you’ve done, but maybe you’ll have something. Just a few more dollars for some more tokens. C’mon, just pay a bit more.
