2nd Nov. 2025 marks the 25th anniversary of the ongoing human presence off-world.
That is, humans have continuously occupied the ISS for exactly 25 years today.
So if you're <= 24 years old, you've never lived in a world where humans were *only* terrestrial-based.

Le financier times cet outil du parti communiste woke international qui cherche à détruire la France
Opinion: More than any other western European country, France is dominated by powerful billionaires paying relatively low taxes. Most voters agree that France should cut its deficit, and the majority says: the super-rich first. on.ft.com/4hedHHZ

On va juste répéter continuellement les faits :

Deux jours depuis la remarque d’une couv en IAgen chez un éditeur.
- des messages en privés pour dire qu’ils étaient dégoûtés qu’on les affiche
- des commentaires de « l’artiste » qui se justifie que c’est pas de l’IA car il bosse depuis 20 ans
Aucune excuse et acceptation de l’erreur.

I would say that among people I know the primary two positions are "freak out" and "ignore this" and you will be shocked to know i think neither of those are the right move, but both are understandable. I think this is worth closely monitoring, without losing your shit over it.

“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”
A totally serious commitment and not at all extended in only one direction.

A nationwide day of disruption has started in France, “Bloquons Tout” (Block Everything). Triggered by new austerity measures, the call demands a total halt to work, consumption & banking activity — “We don’t pay. We don’t consume. We don’t work.”

Pareil, je voulais me mobiliser mais j’ai dû renoncer sous peine de me manger mes dead lines (ce qui, malheureusement, n’affecterait personne à part moi), mais si vous êtes dans la rue aujourd’hui sachez que vous avez toute ma gratitude, et si le mouvement se poursuit je vous rejoindrai ASAP !
Je ne peux pas manifester ni faire grève, mais soutien à toutes celles et ceux qui luttent aujourd'hui.

Transphobia is a unique sort of bigotry that just absolutely cooks the online brain. Holding it nearly always results in an inability to ever admit you’re wrong about anything and exponentially increases the likelihood of believing in a cascade of ever dumber conspiracies and fascist ideology

If you actually have a reasonable budget to hire an artist for your project, TELL THEM IN YOUR INITIAL EMAIL TO THEM. Right off the bat. Here is the project, this is what I can pay, this is the deadline. We get so many time wasters it’s remarkably refreshing when a potential client is upfront
