What I’m most interested in is those moments in musical history when artistry meets commercial appeal: the Beatles, naturally, Queen, my absolute favorite, Kendrick Lamar, more recently… and now Rosalía.

This new « Peace deal » between Russia and Ukraine, crafted by the US without Ukraine even being involved, is a criminally warped attempt at resolving an issue in the easiest way possible — by giving the strongest party virtually everything they want, no matter how unfair and how unlawful that is.

It can sometimes feel like bad news keep piling up with no end in sight.
But there always is an end: Zohran Mamdani, a democratic socialist (by US standards), a foreign-born Muslim — and a 34-year old newlywed became mayor of New York City last night…

Today marks the second anniversary of the October 7th tragedy. A tragedy that triggered many more, but a tragedy nonetheless. No good ever comes from killing, violence or destruction. Let us start following the better angels of our nature again.

On Jan. 22 2002, I was interning in Moscow.
One of the popular TV channels was TV-6. That day, the screen went dark. The Kremlin pulled the plug in one of Putin’s first censorship acts.
What is happening in the US is similar. Trump may not be Putin — yet, but this is bad enough...

Tensions — Georges-Henri Betbeze
There are many things going on in the world right now that point to the fact tensions are rising. However, we should very much try to remain cool headed. Otherwise, they win.

- Do you know what today is, Sophia?
- No…
- Bastille day!
- What is that?
- It is the anniversary of the day Parisians took over Bastille prison and freed all of the King’s prisoners, paving the way for the French Revolution.
- Does it mean I’ll get chocolate milk?

On the phone:
- Sophia, I can’t find your camera.
- It’s on the cupboard next to my wand.
- I see your wand but not your camera…
- If you can’t find the camera, you can get the wand instead…

This weekend marked the 20th anniversary of my graduating from #HEC.
I used to have conflicting feelings about those things.
These days, I'm way more relaxed about it: meeting friends I had not seen for years simply reminded me that it's nice to talk to interesting people...
