DD-13 Paper doll
This was my entry to the Artclub month challenge, by Bench Park School. The theme was “Cyber Donald, by Jake Parker”. The idea was to revisit this iconic artwork.Blender Artists Community
Der Weihnachtsbaum zog erst vor ca. 450 Jahren in die Wohnzimmer ein. Jedoch stand er nicht immer in einem Weihnachtsbaumständer sondern wurde an der Decke aufgehängt: verkehrt herum. Dieser Brauch war in Osteuropa noch bis ins 20. Jhd. üblich 🤷♂️

▴ Plaka
View from Plaka Castle, overlooking the island’s rugged coastline. Perched on a hill, Plaka is the capital of Milos and has all the charm of a classic Greek island village with its narrow alleys, whitewashed houses, and the occasional stray cat. It’s a laid-back maze of cobblestone streets, cozy cafés, and small shops selling local goods, rendering it a perfect place for a slow, unhurried wander.

How States and Cities Decimated Americans’ Lowest-Cost Housing Option
Low-cost micro-units, often called single-room occupancies, or SROs, were once a reliable form of housing for the United States’ poorest residents of, and newcomers to, New York, Chicago, San Francisco, and many other major U.S. cities.The Pew Charitable Trusts
François Bayrou assure avoir "envisagé" de "passer de 35 heures à 36 heures de travail par semaine"
Imagine, envisage, François.
Tant qu'il ya des rêves, y'a de la vie !
Vous savez (ou pas, peu importe), que, de mon côté, je n'envisage de ne voter que pour un Parti qui proposera une durée de temps de travail de 22 heures (payées plein temps évidemment).
Chacun ses rêves après tout !
(N'empêche, comme je l'ai déjà dit, cette séquence que le Prime Minister nous offre depuis quelques semaines, "Bayrou part en live", est vraiment épatante. Rien de bien nouveau : du néolibéralisme mâtiné de néoconservatisme (à moins que ce ne soit le contraire), mais que ce soit Bayrou qui se charge d'enfoncer les derniers clous du cercueil de l'État Providence, avec cette sorte de candeur qui confine à la naiveté, cette manière de dire tout haut des trucs que ses collègues évitent soigneusement de dire tout haut, tout en y pensant très fort, je ne l'aurais pas parié.)
Juppé, Raffarin, De Villepin, Fillon, Ayrault, Valls, Cazeneuve, E. Philippe, Castex, Borne, Attal, Barnier, Bayrou
et ainsi de suite.
On se focalise le temps qu'ils sont au pouvoir sur tel ou tel nom, en s'indignant qu'à chaque fois, ce serait le pire, alors, qu'en réalité, ce sont des copié-collé au service du Capital. Ils font le même job : transformer le social au gré des désirs du Capital (qui leur refile la sale besogne, externalise la violence, enfin, une partie de la violence, qu'il exerce).
ça marche assez bien. Ça distrait le péquin. C'est des "Bayrou dehors !", "Juppé démission", "Machin au placard !"
Ok.
MAIS APRÈS ?
Le problème c'est pas les mecs (99% de mecs d'ailleurs, mais bon, Elisabeth Borne hein..) qui incarnent le pouvoir. C'est la structure même du pouvoir, et quels intérêts il vient servir, quelles subjectivités il fabrique (c'est-à-dire : "nous", les péquins)
Ce qui m'enrage, c'est ok, Bayrou dehors, Macron démission, mais si c'est pour, aux prochaines élections, voir leurs successeurs, des copié/collé, se faire élire les doigts dans le nez, quel sens ça a ?
Je t'avoue que j'en ai ma claque de voir ces affiches ridicules dans les rues et les manifs, "Untel ou untel dehors". Le degré zéro de la politique. On dirait qu'à chaque nouveau zigue qui accède au pouvoir, les gens découvrent la violence du capitalisme comme si ça leur tombait dessus depuis ce matin.
Everything else is just an invitation to transform your instance into a spamming machine.

Is the UK about to rejoin the EU's Erasmus student travel scheme?
Well the Govt. seems to be inviting tenders to run the scheme for 18months from next July... so it looks like (at least) some sort of pilot re-entry into the scheme is being planned.... even if the Govt. says its not going to 'pre-empt' negotiations with the EU
Potentially a little glimmer if post-Brexit good news?

Politics Channel reshared this.
Yebbut, nobut...
Why are the government inviting tenders to operate this scheme? Why must a third party, operating with the intent of making a profit, be brought in to extract money from the national economy for a project that will ultimately benefit Britain?
Why can't civil servants do this for ≈60-80% of the cost of a private company?
When will Downing Street wake up and realise our pockets are being picked; or are they in on the scam?

Notice anything about this story yesterday in the NYT on Telegram-based swatting services that are disrupting schools? Spoiler: The byline is just The New York Times. Speaks volumes about the intense harassment people face just for reporting on the subject.
Upper ocean heat content (0 to 700 m depth) also set a new record high with the latest June data update (see my earlier post). Yikes!

our lack of time/interest to seek out multiple perspectives on claimed facts. our tendency towards assuming good faith. our tribalism. the US cultural assumption that being rich means someone is smart. the sense that it's generally difficult to lie to someone's face. our desire for simple explanations. basic reciprocity.

Aaaaargh.
Too often, I get another reason to want to write an article, how it's "not all Gen X white guys, but usually Gen X white dudes."
I have plenty of anecdotes myself, but now I'm hearing from a friend whose years of effort are being taken away now that they are finally presentable.
---
I also know many amazing men from the Gen X variety, and to you I request to be more aware of your fellow generation-mates doing one of the following:
1. Ignoring or dismissing women's ideas until a man repeats them.
2. Assuming she is incapable.
3. Letting her do the dirty work and then take the credit, or take over for the fun stuff.
4. Interrupting her while she's presenting at a conference.
5. Negatively judging her for actions that would be praised when a man does them.
6. Being generally dismissive, or interrupting her, denying her skills, displaying misogyny, etc., etc.
(Yes, all these things happened, multiple times, to numerous women.)

Also, believe women when they say this shit happens.
Anyway, I'm so pissed on my friend's behalf now.

Annoyingly the FT's latest editorial while accepting the current Govt. inherited a 'poor' economy outlook from the Tories, goes on to argue that the current reduction in jobs & economic activity is the direct result of mistaken policy choices by Labour.
Now I'm not going to say that's there's no link... but (as I've said before) the Bank of England *explicit* policy on inflation has been to slow down the UK economy, yet this isn't mentioned by the FT at all!!
