Legolas: As an elf, I have no idea how to handle death. What do you say to someone who is grieving?

Gimli: Just say, ‘sorry for your loss’ and move on.

Legolas: Sorry for your loss. Move on.

Swann Arlaud giving a speech at Rassemblement et concert contre l'extrême droite, 03.07.2024, la République à Paris

Bonsoir. Bonsoir.

La responsabilité de ceux qui ont diabolisé la gauche est énorme. Ce sont les mêmes qui ont banalisé les discours d'extrême droite, le racisme et la xénophobie. Depuis des années, ils le font partout, chaque fois qu'ils peuvent. Et pourquoi ils font ça ?

Parce qu'ils préfèrent gouverner avec l'extrême droite qu'avec la gauche. Parce qu'ils savent très bien que le Rassemblement national n'est pas l'ennemi du capital, parce qu'ils veulent protéger leurs intérêts. Parce qu'ils veulent, que rien ne change, parce qu'ils partagent. La même haine des étrangers, la même obsession pour la sécurité. Parce qu'ils n'en ont rien à foutre de la planète!

Et ne lui il faut pas nous tromper, derrière le discours policer du RN se cachent la haine de l'autre. Le mépris du droit des femmes et la protection des puissants et les puissants le savent. Ils savent que leur RN ne touchera pas à leurs privilèges, ils savent qu'ils n'empêcheront pas l'industrie de continuer à détruire pour mieux s'enrichir. Ils savent qu'ils continueront à s'attaquer au plus faible, aux plus démunis, ceux-là même qui placent un espoir en eux parce qu'ils ont été oubliés depuis des décennies par tous les gouvernements successifs.

Alors ils agitent l'épouvantail, ils agitent le diable, le couteau entre les dents. Alors c'est les "islamo gauchistes", c'est les "féminazis", c'est les "éco terroristes". Mais en fait, il suffit de lire un peu les programmes, il est où le diable ?

-

Et vous le savez déjà. Vous le savez déjà, on y est déjà toute forme de contestation et criminalisée. C'est la police antiterroriste qui va déloger les militants écolos pacifistes chez eux à 06h00 du matin. Aujourd'hui, dénoncer le massacre du peuple palestinien est considéré comme un acte antisémite. Et lutter pour ses droits, pour la liberté, la solidarité, l'égalité des peuples, des êtres, dénoncer les abus, les violences, tout ça est considérer comme violent et dangereux. Ils ont- ils ont inversé les rôles, ils ont- ils ont détruit le langage, ils ont déplacé le sens des mots.

Et si on est là, c'est parce qu'on voudrait que demain ce soit pas encore pire.

Merci.

[interact-if]

Hi, do you know of the interactive fiction that I believe starts off with the MC in their cabin the woods by themselves and they hear a noise and go to grab their shot gun. They're delivered a letter by someone and they find out that their best friend (or lover, as i believe there was an option to chose) that died in war or something awhile ago might still be alive? They also know someone whose a ghost? And to get to like the capital at one point, they have to take a row boat? I apologize for how scatter brained this is, I'm trying to piece it together!

Also, I really appreciate you taking over this blog as an alternative to it going into archival mode, as someone whose been into IFs for so long and following this blog for so long, its so great to see that you guys are keeping up with the author features for each month that celebrates people.

wait lol au where post-war, the jedi order does a date auction a la every cliche ever where they auction off a date night with one of their jedi generals. it's supposed to raise credits for various post-war charities as well as stoke good feelings about the order (the smear campaign was pretty effective, even if sidious died before the genocide bit)

obviously both the hero with no fear and the negotiator are put on the metaphorical chopping block. anakin is a Good Husband™️ so he clears this with Padmé first, and she laughs and agrees and wishes him luck in surviving the hoards of fans that desire him carnally. she says as a senator, she will be expected to attend and maybe even bid. they both agree that it would be way too obvious for their super secret marriage if she bids on anakin, and anakin asks her to bid on obi-wan in a spur of the moment thing.

it's just. obi-wan was really hurt aboard the invisible hand and then he was hurt again when fighting with grievous. and is anyone vetting these random people who will get to go on a date with the jedi? anyone could win!! a disgruntled separatist could win obi-wan's attention for a night and then take him on a date and then kill him!!!! under anakin's very nose!!!

anakin actually gets like. super concerned about this possibility. like super concerned. he gets padmé to promise that she will bid however much it takes to win obi-wan's hand (she is after all generationally wealthy) and she agrees because she loves him and then also follows through because she's a woman of her word.

anakin gets bid on by several people, one woman wins, it's whatever, anakin doesn't care. what anakin cares about is making sure he and this person can go to the same restaurant as obi-wan and padmé. just like. to make sure obi-wan is alright. he was looking quite flushed during the bidding? anakin is Concerned.

and anakin's poor date, who paid millions of credits for his attention, has to deal with an anakin who is obsessed with what's happening a table over and why are they laughing and are their knees touching beneath the table and maybe anakin should go over and like? break it up? his master is obviously a bit uncomfortable in all this candlelight. he looks beautiful, obviously, but he's clearly uncomfortable and he would feel better if anakin were there. obviously.

and anakin's poor date ALSO has to deal with meeting obi-wan kenobi after/during dinner because anakin can't keep in his lane, and general kenobi is downright hostile and cold to her because he's feeling incredibly overprotective at the thought of anakin having to spend time with some woman who bought him. as if he were a slave again.
