Reminder: we are being trained not to care about other people. It underlines the attacks on migrants, on DEI, on trans youth, on so-called "wokeness."

Sure there are legitimate critiques but this is not about critiques. It's about supercharging capitalism's culture of uncare.

"Civilization must be judged and prized, not by the amount of power it has developed, but by how much it has evolved and given expression to, by its laws and institutions, the love of humanity."--Rabindranath Tagore, Sadhana, 1914.

Closest thing to an American style coffee shop I'm able to find in Toulouse. (I miss coffee shops!!) Reaaally good flat white. Properly done. (A flat white should always be tepid!) Just wish it were closer to where I live or work. It's on the other side of town. 😕
