Bon, encore une ancienne ministre de l'État Français pas foutu de reconnaître une carte de son pays... Soit.... Une ministre des Anciens Combattant qui reconnaît pas un Stahlhelm... Admettons.

MAIS DEUX BRETAGNES C'EST NON !

Déjà que y'en a qu'une....
Incroyable hommage de l’ancienne ministre des Anciens combattants. On appréciera la double Bretagne, le casque allemand et la submersion (ou l’annexion ??) du sud de la France.

C'est juste l'ancienne Ministre déléguée chargée de la Mémoire et des Anciens Combattants.

Tout est ok.

Putain de merde.

Les nazis étaient détestés.
Aujourd’hui ils passent allègrement à la télé et leurs critiques sont censurées.

Et le pire c’est que j’exagère absolument rien.

Vous voyez, là en-dessous, il y a une des raisons qui font que pas mal de Français se méfient de LFI à juste titre.
La vaccination CONTRE LA GRIPPE BORDEL. Vous insinuez que la vaccination DES VIEUX CONTRE LA GRIPPE SERAIT DANGEREUSE.
Les députés rejettent la vaccination obligatoire contre la grippe pour les résidents d’Ehpad et certains soignants

Pendant 20 ans, on m’a dit que pirater les œuvres des artistes c’était le mal absolu et que ça allait détruire la culture, et maintenant on me dit que oh bon, les IA génératives, qu’est-ce qu’on y peut, hein, les gens vont s’en servir de toutes façons.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

In under 1600 words.

Wool, and layered clothing, for the win!

Finnish winters too are far less miserable with good socks, and shoes that won't let water in easily.

(Also, shoes that won't become slippery as hell when it is cold.)
If you are new to winter (e.g. moved from TX to WI) do yourself a favor and buy wool socks and thermal underwear. Yes it’s expensive. It is worth it. A good brand will last a long time. Buy a silk pair too if you can swing it.
Honestly just buy the best gear you can afford so you’re not miserable.

This is THE most important book I’ve read in my whole life. I’ve spent years trying to get people to read it & ordered copies for friends family and neighbors after I first read it. If only more had read it and listened to DOCTOR @sarahkendzior.bsky.social we might not be under Nazi rule etc now.

Old horsehair fishing nets from Brittany, once used to catch monkfish, are now shielding Ukraine’s frontlines from Russian drones. 280km of repurposed netting, sent by Kernic Solidarités, is being stretched across trenches and roads, forming traps that snare drones like flies in a web.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.
