please look at this graffiti my sister saw in paris
I can't believe donald trump and James Charles got to see lando norris' first win and I didn't should be illegal
a character being tragic does not preclude them from being a clown, a loser, evil, a bitchass punk, and/or someone who needs to get their shit rocked
do people know that a french ex-president (nicolas sarkozy, from 2007 to 2012) is currently wearing an electronic bracelet after he was sentenced for corruption and influence peddling? do people know? i want everyone to know 😌
Monthly reminder that I have an One Piece discord server ((THAT'S FOR ADULTS ONLY, WE CHECK ID, ANTIS DNI)) and we host art/fic trades and have a corner for content creators and we do game nights and have a corner for nsfw AND dead dove content and a corner for oc, self inserts and self-shipping and we are all very friendly COME JOIN US
I'm fascinated by the way that the french manage to put their frenchness in everything they do. From the art to the way they'll design tram lines, every time I see something that makes me think "hmm, this has french vibes" and look it up, it's french, by a french designer, creator, builder, photographer, etc. Like you can't picture the most french possible way for something to be before you see it, and once you do, you'll just think "yeah, that's about what I should have expected." The most french possible way to light a cigarette, or train a dog to do a trick.
This one time me and my boyfriend were at his parents' place, with the TV on in the background, and showing some quirky detective show. It was in french, with an overwhelmingly white cast, but there was something about it that kept scratching my brain. Not in a negative way, but making me go "hmm" nonetheless. Not quite like uncanny valley, but close. Turns out the show was Belgian.
Much like the uncanny valley is about the unsettling feeling of seeing something that looks exactly like a person, but lacks the spark of something that would make it human, I was experiencing the fascinated feeling of witnessing something that was entirely in french, but had an uncanny absence of frenchness.
dear USAmericans,
VOTING WORKS!!!
French people showed up, French people voted, turnout was higher today than it has been since 1997, and we kicked the far right to 3rd place
a week ago, the far right was the biggest party in France, we were slated for a far right parliament, prime minister, and government
this week, we voted against them en masse and we won!
VOTING WORKS!
you're up next in November! it's very rare we get to say this, but this one time, take example on the French! show up and vote!
because VOTING WORKS!
In loving memory
Always remember that Steven Moffat used to post and comment on forums discussing Doctor Who many years before he became a writer for the series. The future showrunner of the show could at this very moment be lurking somewhere on social media posting about how The 12th Doctor is a butch lesbian.
