Spoilt by Feminism. Intersectionality is context. Context is vital. She/her. If you say nothing, you can never be wrong. Go you Huskies. Check out the FFW podcast:
Also for la petite finale, England v France. Glad to see Upamecano got props (8 off the bench) but not sure what Djed Spence they were watching...
Meanwhile, it's 35C here but we're the only department showing 'no particular alert' so you can imagine how things are elsewhere. Blimey.
IT support please. I use a VPN to access a client's system, but even when disconnected, my computer thinks I'm in Sweden. Can't change it. Feels like my taskbar is mocking me. It's 35C outside and I'm melting. What?
OK there's something weird about the video for France's World Cup song and I just can't put my finger on it... www.youtube.com/watch?v=MuUP...
Following emails from both Mum and Dad, we seem to be on board with the vote for the new bank notes...
Some cute little flowers have appeared on a shrub by my terrace, and cute little birds seem to love them - or maybe there are tasty insects inside. Image search suggests they are Feijoa sellowiana (or pineapple guava)...
The first leg of the Ligue 1 / 2 playoffs was a weird watch. St Etienne might have just chucked away their trump card. www.lequipe.fr/Football/Art...
On a more light comedy vibe, there was a street near me when I lived in London called 'Vineyard Grove (formely Depot Approach)'. Per streetview, people are still nicking the sign for the laughs. I always imagine it being said in Victoria Wood's voice...
Heh, they even guessed where I am (France) - presumably from the questions about demos stopping traffic. And my closest matches are Jeremy Corbyn and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortes. None of you will be surprised. Try, is fun: findmypolitics.com
OK I was looking for a photo in my files and refound this... Plume is my little talkative inquisitive buddy who always wants to know what I'm up to, heh.
Safe to say that L'Equipe were not impressed by the defending last night. They just don't know how to have any fun...
I swear I never saw it until later - we were both laughing about 'scrap Brexit'...
So, in Montpellier...you might want to look up the guy who beat the fash into 6th and 7th. Go Remi.
They've got standard wording. Identical in all three reports. That's vomit-inducing.
Ooh, I've got a couple of old French 'BDs' in that format. Jack Forgas - chasseur de gangs! 🙃
And now it's had a third go. I know, I know, I should have known better, but I figured they'd have actually linked in the product details, not just made a wild f-ing guess. Hope nobody asks Rufus how to cook raw chicken.
On my Facebook memories today - authentic journo swag from Mexico '86. Just look at those sponsors...
And a happy festive period to Orange, for picking the perfect moment to fall over AGAIN.
