You know normally I dunk on USAmericans for not understanding aussie slang but sometimes they're right. just found out aussies call toasted sandwiches "jaffles" and it is the dumbest name I've ever heard for anything in my life
apparently it refers exclusively to the ones made with the proper toasted sandwich makers, not the like. pan fried ones. but you could've still called it literally anything else
#tho apparently the proper toasted sandwich makers with the like. grooves were an aussie invention#which does explain why I barely ever see americans using them#never understood why they'd always use a pan for them cause toastie machines are way more common here (and dirt cheap)#anyway who is even calling it that. I lived in Aus for 8 years and I've never heard that word in my life#tho I was admittedly in perth. which is like the distant cousin you've never met of the australian states

#c'est si fun d'écrire un poème (fanfic) ça fasait longtemps que je ne l'avais pas fait mais jsuis tellement ravie#ouais c'est pas un chef d'œuvre et je le posterai probablement jamais comme tous les précédents mais oh comment c'est amusant <3#j'adore inventer des titres (et souvent je trouve qu'ils sont plus intéressants que les poèmes mdrr) et je suis trop fière de celui là#faudrait aussi que j'écrive une seconde partie parce que je peux pas le laisser comme ça le pauvre#vais-je me coucher ou j'enchaine avec la seconde partie.... c'est une bonne question

I’m genuinely starting to forget that cunt is like….. lowkey a “serious” swear that most people will NOT react well to irl. The internet has desensitized me and now I call anything and everything in my local vicinity “cunty.” One of these days I’m gonna say that shit in a professional setting and immediately feel my spirit vacate my body
#idek how to tag this#this is so cunty#tumblr feel my pain#I think the aussies are really onto something#Like how can it be so bad if its so fun to say#internet slang#In general I have very strong opinions on swearing#And by that I mean that I love to swear and I get very frustrated by censorship#Like movies and social media sites will show graphic violence and war crimes before they let someone say fuck#Swearing#Like sometimes a swear word works perfectly for the message you’re trying to get across#Thats the whole point of language#We invented these words so we should use em

#okay rant time about the stupidest shit in the world aka stay twitter discourse rn#so chan puts out the railway mv. very fun very hot we all love it. and that's where things should end. but noooooooo stays are incapable#of letting a good thing lie. so what do they do? start a fanwar with engenes#so many posts like 'THIS is how you do a vampire concept' 'he's ACTUALLY leaning into the vampire concept' 'finally a GOOD vampire concept'#which is just like. clearly shading enhypen bc their whole deal is vampires#so then engenes (understandably but annoyingly) snipe back like#'now EVERYBODY wants to be a vampire' 'it's just gore how unoriginal' etc etc#so then stays go back and purposefully misunderstand and are like 'enhypen didn't invent the vampire concept idiots lots of people have#done vampire concepts before' which is like. duh. not what they're saying#but it's all so stupid bc stays were being deliberately inflammatory about enhypen#saying one mv is a better rep of vampires than like. enhypen's whole deal#which is vampire themes in almost every mv. a whole webtoon and dedicated album. multiple short films and concept videos#WHICH ARE ALL REALLY WELL DONE!!#like why can't people just appreciate they're both good and different. why can't we be like "oh fun they both did vampires!'#especially cause they're friends! jeongin and heeseung are friends! jake is chanlix's adopted aussie son! niki looks up to hyunjin so much!#but nooooo we have to be petty and have a dick measuring contest about who's been doing vampire stuff longer which is completely irrelevant#to what the actual discourse started was anyways#all this to say it's been very annoying bc it's been my whole twitter timeline for the past three days#and i just want to see appreciation for chan's mv and clips of heeseung being hot at their concert last night. is that too much to ask??#staygenes are god's strongest soldiers rn#just deliberate misinterpretations from both sides and stays starting shit again. like always#which is way every other fandom hates stays so bad#UGHHHHHH i just want to have fun but every single post on twitter is about this and i want to tear my hair out#anyways this is a very long rant about a very stupid thing but it's been annoying me so#here we are#wow i haven't done a rant post in a while. and over something so truly stupid too#hopefully by typing this out the annoyance will be released from my body#lol#k speaks

Ta langue, ta langue sage qui invente ma peau, Ta langue de feu qui m'enflamme, Ta langue qui crée l'instant de folie, le délire du corps, Ta langue, fouet sacré, douce braise, Ta langue de chair sans vergogne, Ta langue qui m'explore et me découvre, Ta magnifique langue qui peut aussi dire qu'elle m'aime..

Français de tumblr, je vous fais confiance : avez-vous des livres/brochures/webs sur les droits de travailleurs, l'histoire des grèves, organisation syndicale, etc. à me recommander ?
Je me sens sur le point de re-inventer les mouvements ouvriers du 19ème siècle, mais je sais bien qu'il y a pas mal des gens qui sont venues avant moi.
Extra points si vous avez des choses sur les indépendants/auto-entrepreneurs et le travail des femmes. Je sais que ça change par pays selon les lois, etc. (je suis espagnole), mais je sais aussi qu'il y a des thèmes généraux.

The Darkest Of Angels
The latest instalment in the MAD MAX series, FURIOSA, is not as inventive as its predecessor, FURY ROAD. There are few moments to match the kooky joy of seeing the DOOF WARRIOR thrashing his guitar made out of a bedpan, atop a truck full of Taiko drummers in this movie. But FURIOSA delivered, and not in the ways expected. It is dark. A post-nuclear Dickensian western. A harrowing tale of an orphan taken to the Wasteland workhouse. With no inheritance to save her day, she wants revenge. There's plenty of George Miller’s signature kinetic storytelling. This isn't mere mayhem, but a thoughtful meditation on war, revenge, grief, and hope, told in 5 chapters.
1: The Pole of Inaccessibility
“Do Not Look Away, You Mustn’t Look Away.”
The tale begins in the “Green Place”, an EDEN hidden in the Wasteland. Instead of an apple, a peach is plucked by a little girl - a much younger FURIOSA. For the first hour, the titular character is played by Alyla Browne, who gives an absolutely riveting performance. Many of the traumatic moments that will shape the character are dealt with by this incredible young actor.
Furiosa is soon kidnapped by the motorbike crazies that populate the MAD MAX films. Unfortunately for the goons, Furiosa’s mum MARY JABASSA is a veritable fury, and relentlessly hunts them down. Played by Charlee Fraser, the character isn’t in the story for long but she absolutely fizzes with intensity while she’s on screen. Leaving a white hot afterglow that lasts for the rest of the film. Unfortunately, she is soon dealt with by the villain of the tale.
When we first meet DEMENTUS, he is clothed in white robes, like a desert messiah in his tent. Hemsworth’s performance is one of the highlights of the film. Dementus has a rural Australian accent, and a speaking style reminiscent of earlier generations. This may be lost on anyone without a small town Australian grandfather, but for me it had a chilling effect. At once folksy, familiar and terrifying. Most of the quotable lines from this film are from Dementus. He’s a bad egg, but eminently watchable. A Long John Silver of the desert.
2: Lessons from the Wasteland
"Who's got the goods? The bollocks, the testes to ride with Dementus?! "
Anya Taylor-Joy was arresting, and did wonders with a largely non verbal role. She was a strange choice for the role though. Alyla Browne believably played a child version of Charlize Theron, but Anya Taylor-Joy’s distinctive features and slight frame aren’t going to look like Theron in 10-15 years time.
When Charlize Theron’s FURIOSA spoke with a north American accent in FURY ROAD, I accepted it as possible in Miller’s Wasteland. After all, we’d already learned years ago that way out in the middle of the outback, you might meet... TINA TURNER. So yeah, that accent made sense in 2015. However, we now know that Furiosa’s parents and childhood accent were both Australian. Then, she somehow acquires a North American accent growing up in the Citadel. Surrounded by Aussie War Boys?
George Miller deservedly gets praise for his imaginative visual world building and storytelling, but sometimes his world doesn’t make ‘sense’. I know that these films are best taken as kinetic & operatic comic books, taking place in a mythic world. However, inconsistencies sometimes break the spell, popping me out of the movie watching experience, to ask real world questions.
However, Tom Burke’s Aussie accent was flawless, and his turn as PRAETORIAN JACK was wonderful. A stoic character, with as many wounds and losses as any other wretch in this misbegotten landscape, but who hasn’t lost the ability to be humane.
3: The Stowaway
“Didja see that? How they fought for each other, this little army of two? Where were they going, so full of hope?”
Each MAD MAX film thus far took us to a completely new part of the Wasteland. FURIOSA too shows us a new location, the Green Place. Experienced for mere moments, before being hauled to locations we’d previously seen in FURY ROAD.
Though shown 15-20 years earlier, they looked exactly the same. Instead of seeing The Citadel only partially built, ruled by a younger Immortan Joe (perhaps not yet needing his mask, but already showing the signs of physical frailties?) characters & locations look as they did in a movie set 15-20 years later.The only character who shows the passage of time is Furiosa herself.
George Miller takes big swings with these MAD MAX films, but in completely different ways with each one. FURIOSA is back to a revenge story, which is where the series began, but with a completely different structure this time. Ending on a dialogue in the desert, instead of blow-the-hinges off action sequence. After the excitement of what came before, a verbal showdown in the desert was anticlimactic for some. ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST, climaxing with jibber jabber instead of Leone’s gunfight. For me though, this ending (and Hemsworth’s speech) was one of the high points of the film.
The film has many images that stay with me - A time-lapse shot of a young tree growing from a discarded wig. A lizard eats flies buzzing around a skull in the desert, only to be crushed under a racing motorbike tire. Parasailing marauders attack a giant truck from the sky. The sadistically twisted villain wears a child’s teddy bear. Owned by a victim? Or his own children from long ago? What a grimly beautiful world this is.
4: Homeward
“There will always be war. But to get home, Furiosa fought the world.”
Some critics said FURIOSA was “an epic slice of myth-making”, while others called it “a joyless, pointless, pretentious and inartistic slog”. Generally though, critical response was effusive. 90% on Rotten Tomatoes with an 89% audience score. Interestingly, these action films are consistently rated higher by critics than by audiences:
FURIOSA: 90%/89% FURY ROAD: 97%/86% BEYOND THUNDERDOME: 79%/49% ROAD WARRIOR: 94%/86% MAD MAX: 90%/70%
Also interesting, is that FURIOSA’s audience score is the highest of all the 5 films. Stranger still is that this favourable response didn’t result in box office success.. There are many theories as to why this is so. Although some say that this is the best prequel ever, any prequel is by definition unnecessary. Perhaps those that focus on a sidekick character will have a harder time connecting with audiences. Especially if the franchise’s main character is a no show. (Likewise, SHORT ROUND: AN INDIANA JONES SAGA might tank at the box office too, if Indy only has a cameo of mere seconds.)
This gets to why an audience decides to go see a movie. Personally, I just needed to know that George Miller - a director I’ve followed since my teens - was making another movie. That’s it. I was already in line before I knew what it was about. But most people, even MAD MAX fans, lost interest when they heard the famous character wasn’t in it. Joe & Jane Public bond with actors and characters. Directors not so much.
5. Beyond Vengeance
“D’ya have it in ya to make it epic?”
Movies used to be cheap entertainment, that audiences could afford to take a chance on, but they are expensive nowadays. Especially with all the bells & whistles of IMAX and reserved seating. People have been burned so many times by gushing press luring them to lame movies, that positive reviews and ‘buzz’ are now simply assumed to be studio psyops. Flatly ignored. Instead, if it’s a film they are unsure of, many prefer to wait a few weeks and try movies at home, affordably. On the big screen TVs & sound systems bought during the pandemic.
Given FURIOSA’s poor box office, we may never get the 6th instalment in the MAD MAX saga; WASTELAND. Which makes me regret that George Miller hadn’t made that film before this one. FURIOSA isn’t my fave of the MAD MAX films, but ranks high in my personal list. A fantastic addition to this series, that deserved more success than it got, sadly. Seeing George Miller stretch himself, in this mythic world he has constructed over decades, is a true cinematic joy.
“To feel alive, we seek sensation — any sensation to wash away the cranky black sorrow!”

Les photos d’archives. Une telle mine d’or de connaissance et de culture. Un savoir qui doit être mis en avant et maintenu en vie dans le cœur des femmes et hommes pour se rappeler de l’histoire. Ainsi, voici 3 photos d'archives de la Première Guerre mondiale. Conflit majeur se déroulant de 1914 à 1918, il sera le théâtre des premières utilisations de l’aviation militaire, mais aussi des chars d’assaut et de la motorisation en temps de guerre tout en donnant de grandes avancées technologiques à l’artillerie et aux armes légères. La 1re guerre mondiale est donc surtout connue pour avoir été la guerre qui a vu la naissance de la cavalerie blindée, mais aussi de l’aviation militaire. Mais elle peut être aussi rattachée à des inventions et des premières qui aujourd’hui se retrouve dans le civil : Chirurgie d’Urgence avec des personnes comme Samuel Pozzi, Harry Dakin, Alexis Carrel, mais aussi en termes de chirurgie plastique, d’hygiène et même des avancées dans la vaccination, les prothèses et les soins psychiatriques.
Ici, nous avons 3 Femmes du New York Women's Machine Gun Squad Police Reserves testant une mitrailleuse Lewis montée sur une moto de la firme Henderson Motorcycle en 1918. Les trois femmes sont Elise Reniger tenant l'arme, Helen M. Striffler sur le siège arrière et Ivane Farasoff à la conduite. l’Arme utilisé par ses femmes, la Lewis Mark I est une mitrailleuse légère ayant marqué la 1re Guerre mondiale due au fait qu'elle équipe non seulement l’infanterie, mais aussi les premiers chasseurs de l’histoire. Pouvant tirer 550 des cartouches de 7,7 mm à la minute pour un poids de 12,7 kg. Elle sera du coup un franc succès.
3 Soldats du 44e Régiment d’Infanterie en 1915. Il sera le régiment ayant le premier mort en 1914, le Caporal Jules-André Peugeot. Sa première bataille sera celle de Dornach le 19 août et connaîtra la fin de la guerre avec la Bataille de la Butte de Tahure. Ils connaîtront aussi la Première Bataille de la Marne en 1915, la seconde de Bataille de Champagne la même année et seront à Verdun en 1917 sur la côte 344 du 3 au 13 septembre. Dissoute en 1923, elle sera recréée de façon éphémère en 1939 lors du déclenchement de la Deuxième Guerre mondiale et dissoute de nouveau en 1940 suite à la défaite de la France. Elle sera finalement de nouveau recréée en 1989 sous le nom de 89e Bataillon de Service, devenant ainsi un régiment administratif et de support pour la DGSE. Surnommée l’As de Pique, de nos jours, cette unité sert de support pour le personnel militaire se trouvant affecté à la DGSE.
Un canon BL 6-inch Mark VII du Royal Garrison Artillery en action près de Hédauville en Somme lors de la Bataille de Rosière le 26 mars 1918. Récupéré de la Navy et monté sur un affût pour devenir un canon lourd de campagne, le BL 6-Inch Mark VII aura ainsi son affût et son moyen de transport dessiné et mis au point par l’Amiral Percy Scott (1853-1924) et sera exclusivement opéré par la Royal Garrison Artillery durant la Seconde Guerre Boers et la 1re Guerre mondiale notamment durant la Bataille de la Somme.
