7 Mars.

Tuesday, March 7th. The biggest demonstration in France since the last century. Every single trade union has joined the fight this time, nearly three quarters of the population supports the strike against Macron's pension reform.

Emmanuel Macron's greatest ambition is to mark history as the man who destroyed opposition to the final steps in capitalising French economy: a great admirer of the late Margaret Thatcher's, he aims to succeed where she succeeded, in forcing through popular contestation. The fight will be bitter, it will be hard. People are exhausted and penniless, deeply afflicted by the worst economic crisis since the last war—which is precisely the reason why Macron chose to pass that reform despite even bosses syndicates' lukewarm reception, with the idea to capitalise on the French's fatigue to forego protestation. He risks more than a reform if the strike goes on, but also his pride, his party, maybe his very position.

We'll be trying to help him leave a mark on History alright, as a petty tyrant to be defeated.

So proud. Sending strength to all of you in the streets. That is the French spirit. 🇨🇵

Macron t'es foutu, tout le monde est dans la rue !

not to be a soccer nerd but thinking about team dynamics and uniform numbers and how jackie wears a 9 bc she’s a striker - obvs that’s the striker’s number. and shauna has the 6 which is (narratively a foil to jackie) and also defending midfielder. tai is the 8 which is ur classic box to box midfielder like jus well rounded support… nat is 7 a winger/backup striker. lottie is 5, centre back sweeper…. the implications. van as the goalie….. should i write thr whole post bc like i’m going insane and i don’t think ppl talk about their team positions enough

Kurvitz stresses that Kim doesn't actually have a character sheet hidden in Disco Elysium's code. Imagining that Lieutenant Kitsuragi has only one natural attribute point in Motorics helps the ZA/UM team to understand the depth of his character beyond what's referenced in the game's dialogue. "We just came up with this stuff for coherency," says Kurvitz. "And because we're nerds."

"I like to think Kim has a Thought Cabinet project called Revolutionary Aerostatic Brigades that he's worked on since he was a teenager," Kurvitz says. "This raises the learning caps for his Reaction Speed and Interfacing."

Kim's high Volition skill makes him impervious to prying, Kurvitz says, as the detective can find out on occasions being met with Kim's brick-wall resolve. Kim often chastises these whims of the detective's, but will occasionally play along. The Lieutenant finds his new partner funny, says Kurvitz.

Kim is naturally shit at Motorics and thinks Harry is funny source

Home is where I want to be, but I guess I'm already there

I come home, she lifted up her wings. I guess that this must be the place

I can't tell one from another—Did I find you, or you find me?

There was a time before we were born

If someone asks, this where I'll be

Where I'll be

Couldn't decide between Ares and Zeus for the bad parent part but I went with Ares 'cause I'm still salty about how he treated Clarisse in The Sea of Monsters.

+ Ares fits better with being directly rude to his kids while Zeus is more cold and manipulative.

WILD LIFE SESSION 7 SPOILERS

WELCOME BACK SKIZZ AND MUMBO!!! Glad to see them come back, even if they kept getting killed basically every 30 seconds (hyperbole). But Mumbo was out for BLOOD this session, he killed so many people lmao.

And Martyn’s power is really leaning into the whole “Martyn is a Listener” thing- I see you. Not to mention there’s another LimLife reference bevause if I had a nickel for every time Tango was hunted down by the entire server, I’d have two nickels- which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it’s happened twice.

This session was so silly and chaotic, can’t wait to see how the next one goes.

"How do you feel about Toey?" "I've got a good feeling about him. He's a wacky guy, it's like he feels no stress in his life. It seems there's something within him that makes me feel good when he’s around. It’s like I’m sitting in a vast grassy field with a gentle breeze under a bright sky. It’s like I’m watching a masterpiece of art.”

Brokeback Mountain; “You know I ain’t queer” scene w/ GyJo

written by me :3

—.°

The fire gleamed gently, shifting around the busted up kettle, scuffs and a layer of charcoal have decorated the bent metal. Johnny idly poked at the piece of lamb meat roasting over the flames with his knife; ‘he needs a new one soon’, Gyro thought, glancing between the comestible and his partner. His green eyes were held lidded and comfortable, casting long stares before the thought of looking away provoked him.

Johnny’s eyes stayed fixed on the food, only shifting when he felt them closing subconsciously when he got too lost in thought. Something deeply rooted itself in his mind, Gyro could see it, the way his fingers moved and the tension between his muscles. He had felt it too, of course, but didn’t dare tread into the dreaded territory; it was a conversation he truly wasn’t prepared for, one he wanted to avoid. He believed that they could live in silence, a comfortable and non-confrontational silence. Unspoken words would lead them through their relationship, and nothing would ever have to be said. This preconceived notion was quickly sent up as an ember with the sparkling flames as Johnny’s voice broke through the air.

“This is a one shot thing we got goin’ on here,” his voice was blank, so factual that Gyro wanted to rip his heart out from its resting place between his ribs. He licked his lips nervously, pressing them tightly together, he was fighting the words that formed from his hastily beating heart, and desperately trying to cling to the ones his brain fed him instead. He could taste the bitter green pigment smudge across his tongue.

“It’s nobodies business but ours,” his hands came to rub at the grass he had been strewn out upon, small fractions of dirt nestled into his nails as he ripped a small chunk of green from the earth. His eyes drifted back to Johnny, who still refused to look at him.

“You know I ain’t queer.”

The words had stung with a harshness Gyro felt he never experienced before; his lips locked together once more, the tip of his tongue pressed against the back of the golden coverings adorning his teeth. The outlawed term made his arms tremble, he swallowed thickly while thinking of some sort of escape; an excuse for his actions, a denial of them completely. Gyro knew that his existence was a crime unforgivable by God, a sin you could not wash from your hands.

“Me neither,” is all he could say.

As a silence fell over them again, Gyro could see the semblance of dried lamb blood crusted onto Johnny’s hand.
