  • I wish they'd finished that show.

  • Holding for 10 minutes is already quite impressive. When I moved abroad and arrived at my future roommate's house for the first time (he had 3 dogs) I kept telling myself "don't say hi to the dogs before the guy" and I failed majestically, ending up on my knees kissing these dogs before greeting him. (Luckily he loved dogs just as much as I do and found it funny).

  • Both sides are the same

    Jump

  • The way I see it, between left and far left the direction is roughly the same, that's the means and end point that differ (i.e. revolution or not and how far we go into sharing resources). This is an important difference and they should thus not be mixed.

  • That's not far left IMO, that's just left. This is a recurring problem we have in France too, where medias call "far left" parties that are just left. This is a slippery slope, the one on which Overton window slips towards the (far) right...

  • Thanks! I should've done that directly, apologies.

  • How do you beat post-work floppiness?

  • There's a lot of good advice to improve things by changing your behaviour. It is also worth checking your health. I have had similar issues but it got better after I was treated for vitamin B9 deficiency. I was just plain exhausted but after a blood test confirming the issue and a few weeks of supplements prescribed by my doc, things got so much better. Depression and burn out have also been mentioned and it is definitely worth asking for a depression test if you see a doctor. That shit is so exhausting. When I was depressed, I could sleep like 10h a night and I still had zero energy.

  • Merci ! Je vais contacter urgence Palestine pour voir s'ils ont une pétition/ des trucs en ligne pour mobiliser à une plus large échelle géographique.

  • One of those funny coincidences

    Jump

  • Exactly, I didn't want to amend their paper myself, I just wanted to tell them which parts were inaccurate so they could change it. It blatantly shows that they don't care about sharing valid information and that they don't give a shit about our work or the people they "inform". And I'm talking about massive media's like the discovery channel for instance. Ironically, one of the few who did a good job was a tiny web journal. They took my feedback into account and it was the best article about my work that was published that year.

  • Je suis malheureusement trop loin pour me joindre à vous. Est-ce qu'il y a une pétition ou des visuels à faire tourner sur nos réseaux militants pour donner de la visibilité à la situation d'Omar ?

  • One of those funny coincidences

    Jump

  • I've been a researcher for over a decade and I literally started declining all media contacts because of my terrible experience with so-called "journalists". Most of the journalists I interacted with did clearly not give a single shit about sharing my actual findings. All they want is a cool headline even if it means completely disrespecting years of work as well as their audience. I've seen journalists, who committed to take my feedback about whether they reported the theory or findings correctly, publish complete bullshit without checking with me. Others cited my paper while giving a summary of the findings of another paper and some literally and blatantly lied in a documentary. They still publish bullshit but at least they don't waste my time anymore and I no longer read "scientific" papers available to the general public knowing what's behind the scene.

  • What of your grandma's cooking do you miss?

    Jump

  • I miss my granpa's cooking. His "daube de boeuf" (a dish where beef morsels are slowly cooked in a red wine based sauce) was delicious and he would always make that simple but lovely dessert for me with a fresh fruit salad and gâteau de semoule. I miss him !

  • Dinner is ready!

  • Don't forget beans on toast, mint sauce and having to eat Brussels sprouts every year for Christmas.

  • My bf prefers savoury stuff too and figured that, as the important part was having fat to dissolve THC, a cheese-based sauce could work. He tried blue cheese and cream sauce...it worked (almost too) well: he had a lovely dinner and got high AF

  • What book did you read last and what book are you currently reading? Would you recommend either of those books?

    Jump

  • Yeah that too, you're right. You get hooked into the rythm of one group and, at the next chapter, you're taken away from them, following another part of the story in which you are not currently invested.

    Jump

  • That's interesting. I didn't feel that way so I'm probably not the best to say whether it changes in book 2. It probably doesn't as both felt like a fairly coherent story with an homogeneous approach. Anyone else felt that Kvothe was too perfect and would be able to enlighten us about whether it gets better in book 2?

    If you like heroes that make mistakes and aren't perfect (which completely makes sense btw) maybe you'd enjoy the Dresden files by J. Butcher (low urban fantasy in which you follow a mage in Chicago).

  • Last book : the wheel of time (#5) by R. Jordan. I don't really recommend. I mean the story's great but the way the characters are written is dull and sexist (men saying that women are mysteries, women complaining about how men are dumb and other ridiculous clichés), it feels like following people that are somewhat the worse of both teens and boomers, it takes me out of the book every single time. I prefer the king killer chronicles (P. Rothfuss) although we're still waiting for the last book.

    Current book : Trapped (C. Lackberg and H Fexeus) it is a great polar, with nice twists, I recommend!
