helaena's lost her child and her brother-husband is dying because of aemond but it is him who needs her emotional support apparently. okay.

[crispyartisanzombie]

This image just makes me headcanon that they are in love and trying to be secret about it yet absolutely fail.

The people living in the city of Mondstadt have their suspicions but these two are too stubborn to admit it, eventually Rosaria noticed them heading alone somewhere so she's listening in to their conversation to see if people were right.

So many things wrong with these chars now but I need to mourn a min bc we are never getting "The rats play while the cat is gone, but my son Aemond will return with fire and blood."

which just...this show sucks man. this show fucking sucks.

Y a des comptes de fachos (Damien Rieu et Français de souche) qui veulent faire passer Copé pour un "islamodroitiste" (comprendre : islamogauchiste mais pour la droite) parce qu'il a dit "Bonne fête de l'Aïd !" à Meaux et d'une part, ça prouve que les gens qui votent RN en se disant "moi je suis un "bon" musulman/juif/immigré, ils vont rien me faire" ont tort, d'autre part, absolument hilarant que les fachos choisissent COPÉ comme figure de "l'islamodroitisme", j'aimerais remonter dans le temps et lui dire ça vers 2011/2012.

Les gens qui disent se soucier de la santé mentale juste pour justifier leur pépeine passagère, comme...ouin. Bel effort. Comme on voit le commitment. C'est pas self absorbed pantoute. C'est vraiment vénérable pis ça fait de vous des crisses de bonnes personnes. C'est vraiment beau à voir. Mais rendu là j'préfère agrandir la pépeine que la réduire pis le monde, ben, si y veulent ça se passe autrement ben y parlerons à quelqu'un d'autre parce-que j'ai pu juste ça à faire flatter du monde dans le sens du poil.

[Bref] Sondage: 68% des australiens pour la légalisation du vapotage nicotiné

Depuis 2013, la part de fumeurs stagne à plus de 15% des adultes en Australie. Malgré la mise en œuvre de hausses de prix impressionnantes, du paquet neutre et d’une politique de stigmatisation violente contre les fumeurs. C’est dans ce contexte que l’organisation des vendeurs au détail, l’Australian Retailers Association (ARA), a commandé un sondage au cabinet Crosby Textor (CT group) pour…

Laurie McCarthy saying she's "a fan" of Frary's relationship, 10 years ago on July 24, 2014, makes my blood boil. We now know that she was planning to destroy Francis & Mary's marriage with the awful rape storyline just to create a separation so Mary could have her implausible & disgusting "romance" with Conde.🙄😡😤👎

Reign producer Laurie McCarthy and stars Adelaide Kaine, Megan Follows and Toby Regbo came to Comic-Con to tease season 2 of the royal drama.

A Royal Marriage. Season 2 will be a study of what it’s like to be married, especially a marriage between two young royals. Laurie says the new season is also very much a ��new era”. With Francis as King and Mary as Queen, Catherine will also be the Queen Mother, a “title she hates”.

Festering Guilt. Francis will be feeling quite guilty about his role in his father’s death. Regbo says that this secret “will be one of the major struggles of my character this season. I really want to get it off my chest, but I can’t tell anyone.”

Beyond the Walls. Season 2 will also explore what goes on beyond the castle walls, McCarthy says. New power players are coming to court and there will be new romantic intrigue. In addition, we’ll be meeting more members of the Di Medici family. A lot of nobles have been waiting out there “for their day in court” and to get involved with the new royal regime. Follows says that there are the faces of power (the King and Queen), but there’s also the people with the money, who hold a great deal of power. Catherine understands these people and why sometimes even the royals must bow to them, but Mary will find negotiating these relationships to be quite difficult. Regbo hinted that Francis will also find it surprising when he discovers that, even as a King, he doesn’t have ultimate power in the face of these people.

The Plague. “[The plague] will land at the castle with a vengeance,” McCarthy revealed. It will change the dynamics of court and this region of France. A percentage of the regional population will die and even some of the characters we already know will die. It will eventually pass, but the season is about “what rises beyond the ashes of the plague”. It will be followed by a famine and it’s about inheriting a nation that is, in fact, “burning”. Unfortunately, a lot of the nation won’t be within Mary and Francis’ control. There will be political upheaval and people will be “haunted by what they’ve done.”

Mary’s Struggles. Mary is in the tricky position of being the queen of two different countries and navigating her marriage in the wake of Francis learning he fathered Lola’s child. Kane also noted that she’s interested in seeing Mary try to wrest power away from Catherine. What’s unexpected, however, is that Mary is — like Catherine before her — trying to live with her husband having a bastard child, and this is something that will bond Catherine and Mary.

Bound By History? McCarthy says they “take advantage of history”. In the first season they hit “most of the major signposts that happened at court”. But they moved forward at different speeds from history. They plan to tell the story of Francis and Mary ruling together and she’s a fan of the relationship herself, so they’re not too eager to kill off Francis quickly.

The Brothers. What will the relationship between Francis and Bash be like in the upcoming season? Regbo says that “[Francis] wants Bash on his side. Beyond what happened, family counts for a lot in this world.” “There’s different kinds of love stories on the show [from romance to love between friends],” McCarthy says. She says that they wouldn’t have the brothers betray each other “without motivation.”

Queen Mother. McCarthy says that “Catherine is at her best when she’s scrappy and dangerous. I think that she is, by definition, a little bit marginalized. That makes for some crunchy and dangerous encounters.” McCarthy also dropped the hint that Catherine will “have future lovers.”

Season 2 of Reign will premiere on October 7 on The CW.

Imane Khelif, you may remember, is an Algerian boxer, one of two to be attacked during the Olympics as cheaters, as transsexual women, as men, and even as violent criminals — all of which was completely false. The two of them, the other being Lin Yu-Ting of Taiwan, were relentlessly demeaned, mocked, and threatened, based only on how each woman had been — retroactively — excluded from an international competition last year by the International Boxing Association. Famous anti-trans politicians and personalities piled on, with Donald Trump, JD Vance, Megyn Kelly, and JK Rowling being among the most recognizable. Possibly because Rowling singled out Khelif and not Lin, the harassment of Khelif was even worse than Lin faced, and many have been wondering when karma might finally land the author in court.

The answer is … not exactly soon, but that doesn’t mean that nothing is happening. While in the process of winning gold under unprecedented pressure (as Lin did also), Khelif worked with a famous and well-regarded Paris lawyer, Nabil Boudi, to prepare a complaint about the harassment. It was filed on Friday, August 9, actually before the gold medal bout. Although many people in the English speaking world have misinterpreted this as a defamation lawsuit (Variety seems to have corrected the body of its article, but not its headline), in fact it’s a criminal complaint alleging “moral harassment,” and per Le Monde was filed with “the Paris correctional court's National Centre for Combating Online Hate.”

So what is ‘moral harassment’ and what’s next?

Moral harassment is a criminal charge that is typically of lesser severity, on a relative par with stalking laws in the United States. As with stalking, there are more and less serious versions and the penalties can vary, but the most serious can be penalized by up to three years in jail and a fine of up to 45,000 Euros. Most violations carry lesser penalties. It is generally defined as repeated acts that have the object or effect of injuring the rights or dignity of a person, harming their health, or impairing certain other specific activities (like the ability to perform one's job).

The Centre for Combating Online Hate is a subunit of the Central Office for Combating Crimes against Humanity and Hate Crimes (OCLCH) and a recent creation. It is empowered to investigate all acts of moral harassment (amongst other hate crimes and crimes against dignity) against persons within France’s borders, even visitors like Khelif and even when the online perpetrators are unknown or outside of France’s jurisdiction.

A number of prominent people within France participated in the harassment of Khelif, including Eric Zemmour, a far-right racist politician who most recently ran for the Parliament of the European Union with the “far-right Reconquête! party.” Yes, that “Reconquête!” means just what you think it does. Members of Rassemblement National also racked up millions of views for their sexist and cissexist tweets targeting Khelif. All of these figures, and more, could face a civil fine plus forced restitution (which would not prevent Khelif from also suing for defamation) or criminal penalties if prosecuted and convicted.

The scope of the investigation, however, is certain to include the tweets of Rowling and others outside France who participated in what the complaint labeled a campaign of harassment both “massive” and “coordinated.” Speaking to Le Monde, Boudi said,

“The investigation will have to determine who was behind this misogynistic, racist, and sexist campaign, as well as those who fueled this digital lynching.”

French prosecutors have authority to request documents and other evidence from foreign governments, but outside the EU they have no ability to require cooperation, only to request it. (Inside the EU their ability to require cooperation is limited, but not non-existent.) While other European countries often have hate speech and harassment laws that overlap with those of France, speech protections are stronger in the UK than in mainland Europe and even stronger in the US. Criminal prosecution of — just as an example — JK Rowling would be possible but more difficult than a French prosecution of Zemmour and his co-harassers. In the USA, prosecution is right out.

So why bother pursuing evidence against Rowling, Musk, Trump, and Vance?

OCLCH, the office under which the online centre is organized, has as part of its mission the support of victims in their attempt to access justice. As a result of this mandate combined with the scope of France’s law against moral harassment, the prosecution investigative service is empowered to gather evidence relating to the treatment of persons within its borders even when charges can’t be filed. The benefit here is that evidence collected by the government at the government’s expense can then be used by private parties in defamation lawsuits, allowing victims to collect monetary judgements even when the prosecutors choose not to indict or a person using the internet to harass someone in France is beyond the reach of French law.

Boudi, with a background in both criminal and human rights laws, undoubtedly knows this and how to exploit it. While his client has achieved fame in winning a gold medal, it’s unlikely she has the money to pursue defamation claims around the world (and against the world’s richest respondents). While many people in the US may find it shocking that sending a tweet can be made a criminal offense in Europe, the tools that this allows the French government to use to provide equal access to justice for rich and poor will likely be crucial in the certainly forthcoming Khelif lawsuits against Rowling and her ilk in the English speaking world.

Don’t expect that defamation lawsuit too soon, however. Boudi will undoubtedly be working closely with prosecutors to keep on top of all the evidence that they gather and will want to give them time to work before bringing the civil law to bear.

SAFE SPACE ET FORUM

Not friendly reminder que le terme "safe space" ne veut pas dire environnement aseptisé et apolitique dans lequel on coupe tout lien avec la réalité. Je vois ce terme passer depuis si longtemps pour décrire des forums, mais les personnes qui les emploient ont complètement perdu le sens historique et militant. Un safe space n'est pas un lieu de recul idéologique dans lequel on ne parle de rien de polémique pour éviter les conflits.

Les safe space sont des espaces physiques et/ou idéologiques dans lesquels les communautés marginalisées peuvent se retrouver sans être exposées à la discrimination. Ce concept vient du milieu et des luttes LGBT des années 60. Moira Kenney dans son livre Mapping Gay L.A retrace la définition historique en ces termes :

With anti-sodomy laws still in effect, a safe space meant somewhere you could be out and in good company — at least until the cops showed up. Gay bars were not "safe" in the sense of being free from risk, nor were they "safe" as in reserved. A safe place was where people could find practical resistance to political and social repression.

Depuis, le terme safe space s'est popularisé et est utilisé par toutes les communautés victimes d'oppression. Pour qu'on puisse parler de safe space, il est nécessaire de préciser et de définir donc pour qui cet espace est "safe". Il faut pour cela reconnaître les mécaniques d'oppression.

Si vos forums sont des "safe space" pour tout le monde, alors ils ne sont pas safe pour les communautés marginalisées. Appliquer une politique de tolérance avec des personnes potentiellement racistes et prétendre que votre safe space les empêche justement de tenir des propos racistes n'est pas l'acte de protection que vous pensez qu'il est.

Bref, faites mieux.
