T’es là tranquille dans ta petite vie, et pendant ce temps des mecs réussissent à être à la fois star du porno gay, mathématicien reconnu, et prince en ayant épousé un aristocrate romain. 😳

TIL: an Italian former porn star, Carlo Masi, quit porn to do research in applied mathematics, got his PhD, taught real analysis, became a professor, and then got sacked for being a former porn star. He sued and won against the university.

Israele e l’opposizione a Netanyahu
pressenza.com/it/2025/08/israe…
Gli organi di informazione occidentali hanno riportato con una certa enfasi la notizia di grandi manifestazioni di massa in Israele contro le politiche del governo Netanyahu. Per la verità la reazione da parte degli attivisti pro Palestina di casa nostra…

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.

Unpopular #Mastodon admin opinion, but I really think that, unless you are a small instance that’s just starting out, you shouldn’t enable open registrations all the time on your server. Either switch to an approval-based registration process or to an invite-based one. Or if you want to have open registrations, only do so during a specific time frame each day, like witches.town did.
Everything else is just an invitation to transform your instance into a spamming machine.

Molto buoni. In generale tutta la gamma della pasta ripiena è ottima! 😋
Qualche anno fa collaborai con loro, in qualità di fotografa food e grafica per creare due nuovi packaging per il mercato estero ( principalmente per l'Olanda 😀). Fu una bella esperienza.

So far I have deleted:

And personal, Facebook account (still have the work account).

Technically, we're supposed to keep a personal Facebook account, and my way around that nonsense was to remove my personal, and then create what amounts to a dummy account as my "new" personally account. All I do with that account is I reshare Meta's own AI slop, so they're not getting anything from me. It's a completely one-sided, benefits me, type of relationship.

How's that for compliance? lol 😈

A friend is currently at a flea market in rural PA, and is reporting that about half the booths are 3D printed crud. It makes me think this is dead Internet theory brought to meatspace.

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?

in reply to Emeritus Prof Christopher May

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?

I need to make a meme image for every time I fuck up navigating the TTC and lose 20 minutes with Principal Skinner going "AM I OUT OF TOUCH? …NO, IT'S THE TTC THAT IS WRONG"

Now, remember this. Say you want to go north on Bathurst, so you take the north bus on Bathurst. It's not that simple! Going north on Bathurst you will stop at Bathurst station and at this point you must disembark and board the bus facing south. The bus facing south is the one that goes north. If you board the bus facing north at Bathurst Station you will go south at Bathurst. Will you remember this? Because guess what I just forgot
in reply to mcc

there was a bus route at my university for _Main Street_, in this style, and it was my daily commute. I got the hang of it roughly two weeks before I left town for good.
in reply to hackedhead

@hackedhead Maybe it would be easier to remember these weird quirks if the buses weren't on exceptional routes due to construction 1/4 of the year, with the other 3/4 of the year most of the stops having still-posted signs for the exceptional routes that went away 6 months ago

"The Betrayal of Palestinian Journalists"

"Western reporters are full partners in the genocide."

"They amplify Israeli lies, which they know are lies, betraying Palestinian colleagues who are slandered, targeted & killed by Israel."

"Palestinian reporters expose Israeli atrocities and implode Israeli lies. The rest of the press does not."

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.
