In a sea of clueless imbeciles crowding the Eurostar security check, stopping their tray the second it comes out of the conveyor belt, holding back the whole queue while they slowly grab their items… a young lady stands out: vigorously clearing empty trays, pushing trays to the end of the belt,

Just a heads up if you've ever sent me a DM on Bsky: I'm not ignoring you, I simply don't have access. Just realises that bsky requires "age verification" (aka "send us a copy of your passport, what could go wrong, cmon") for that.

Bsky doesn't even let me know if there are any messages at all. 🤡

There's no word to describe the level of rogue state terrorist behaviours Israel has been engaging in, all over the middle-east, over the past few years. 😡

But that latest wave of destruction they've unleashed on a country barely managing to stay afloat, is particularly disgusting.

French Opera: women are whores

Italian Opera: women are the weak-willed property of their dad or husband. Also: whores.

German Opera: women are fierce, strong-willed, powerful, aryan-blooded emblems of the master race.

But its longstanding role in stirring up sectarian violence in Lebanon: playing an active role in triggering a senseless bloody civil war, and doing everything it can to restart it ever since… is nothing short of state terrorism.

Living in London and Paris as a teenager, I used to think I had chronic clinical depression…

Turned out I just really hated winter.

I sincerely can't think of many war behaviours of the past century, that could compare to what Israel is doing and did not end up in a tribunal.

1. voted a law essentially allowing it to summarily execute Palestinian prisoners

2. doubled-down on its ethnic cleansing of both #Gaza *and* the West Bank

3. relentlessly bombed out civilians in Lebanon, dropping ~100 bombs on Beirut today

Remember the quaint old days of 2025, when some western govts took offence at anyone calling Israel an apartheid state, or called "antisemitism" at any suggestion that there was an ongoing genocide in Gaza?

Oh yea, and also: everything he ever produced from 1999 on, was 100% sampled off the work of Alan Lomax, himself putting his name on the collected work of American South black artists (but arguably Lomax was a curator and never tried to take credit for their work).

But, having interacted with the man plenty in the mid-90s-2000s, I can attest that he is a monumental twat, with an ego only matched by his drugs problem, trying to hide both behind oodles of performative bs.

Anyone here interested in beta-testing a brand new refactor of my mythical™ KanjiBox Japanese-learning app?

(if you've ever used it: no real new features so far, just a thorough visual cleaning and web-based rewrite that should give a nice base for future improvements)

European News 🇪🇺 (@eunews@mastodon.social) Attached: 1 video French Senator Claude Malhuret: "After assembling the most powerful army in the world, failing to win the war against a middle power, causing oil and gas prices to skyrocket, and making incoherent speeches, the golfer from Mar-A-Lago shamelessly admits to being stunned at the Iranian response..."

RE: https://mastodon.social/@eunews/116345910149835763

Not sure I agree with Mr Malhuret on much else in terms of politics, but this is a pretty pithy summary of Trump's MO that does not pull punches… 😆
