I don’t understand how we’re still talking about the spoilers leak… Like honestly at this point who cares about who knows what and why and how? Like how is it relevant, how does it change your life? I don’t understand why we’re still talking about it when the implications of what happened are way bigger than spoilers, and even way bigger than personal info having been shared (though, if you ask me, i don’t believe that. At all. I don’t know any of the people mentioned but i know them enough, see them enough on my dash, to form my own opinions of what they could or not do. But once again, this whatever i’m writing isn’t a plaidoyer in their favor.). I think that nowadays our society, mainly through socials, has a way bigger problem than people who leak spoilers or lie about knowing whatever stuff (which once again, i don’t believe.).  The problem here, at least in my opinion, is the way people, on social media mainly because of the fact that things on the internet often go unpunished, decide when they are allowed to do justice. Justice? How is it justice to expose people’s private convos, people’s name and accounts on every fucking platform, people’s private lives? How is it justice when they don’t get a say? If you claim to do justice to whatever the hell, then at least do it properly. Justice is about balance, and the people you attacked have no way of defending themselves. Justice is, according to the definition of the word (ironical how i’m doing this… Anyways.) : “just behavior or treatment”. Just? I don’t know guys… Doesn’t seem like it to me.  So no, it’s not justice. It’s craving for attention. It’s being bored. It’s being angry about something (rightfully so. Just direct that anger towards better things. There is enough to be angry at.). It’s what Hobbes calls “state of nature” (Leviathan): mankind without law. And, according to Hobbes, state of nature is violent. It’s the strongest eating the weakest. But it’s not justice. So yes, maybe these people shared stuff, or maybe they didn’t. But what i’m trying to say, i guess, is that even if they did, it’s not up to you to decide. Do they have to face the consequences? Yes. Is spreading private infos about someone an infraction to the law? Yes (but so is bullying people on the internet, I reckon…) Are those consequences being exposed on the internet without having any power to do anything? I don’t think so. I think that’s straight up bullying. So, even if you believe it (which… idk… why would we believe someone random like this? Like how is their word more likely to be true than anyone else’s?), it makes no sense to be happy about what happened, or to call it justice. I know what it is to be exposed on the internet for nothing, to prove a point, and it’s not justice. I know what it’s like, and i know how bad it hurt me, and i know i’m still not over it. It’s easy to believe people when they say a crooked version of the truth. Very easy. Please, at least see that the way it was done is so wrong it makes me sick. When i was in middle school, one of my friends had a voice spread about her. And people always asked me whether or not it was true. And i always answered that it doesn’t matter whether or not it’s true, cause even if it is the way it had been debunked was plain wrong and disgusting. And once again, I feel like the truth doesn’t matter. Not really. That’s what happens when the way you use to do something makes what you were trying to do pointless.

“Act only according to that maxim whereby you can, at the same time, will that it should become a universal law”, Kant. Some food for thoughts.

Ps: maybe look up the legal definition of a pedophile before blabbering nonsense, too (”criteria for pedophilia extend the cut-off point for prepubescence to age 13“, according to Wikipedia. Over that, it is up to the minor to agree or not to whatever. The law only covers it if said minor reaches out.). And please, don’t tell me it was just a phrasing. Words have meaning.

We’re facing a pandemic, half of the world is on lockdown, economy is crumbilng, earth is dying… We got other problems that deserve the energy you seem to have to accuse people. It could be very useful if it was used against the right person, and not a bunch of people who, even in the worst case scenario, do not deserve death penalty (or maybe the law has changed, and i haven’t been made aware of it, yo).

it drives me crazy how humans are just meant to hold each other. how come when you hold someone's hand, your fingers just perfectly lock with theirs? how is it that when you hug someone, your face fits just right in the crook of their neck? how can your hands cup someone's face like that's their only primary function? it cannot be coincidence that our bodies are fully capable of holding another... we were designed to love

Hey, I'm a little confused on how exams work in France, does the same exam apply regardless of what school or field you go into? Is it like an entrance exam? Also going back to the first episode, Arthur and Imane said they want to go to med school, do they still need to go to college for premed first? And what did Lucas and basil wants to do that gives them less of a life than even the med school students?

OK, you know I love answering these…so this gets a little long.

@thebeautifulisalwaysbizarre not it is not too much too ask. It is the bare minimum... Céline as dark as night and Flaubert as colorful as Emma’s dreams... Yes... And Dude.

I just want to get a cat, name him Tchaikovsky, and call him Chai as a nickname, then drink wine and recite poems by Baudelaire to him in the most grand tone of voice I can achieve. Is that too much to ask?

14 (gotta start planning), 20 (imma die) and 29 amore 💜

14. three songs you want at your wedding - I Lived, One Republic ; Dreaming of You, The Coral ; A Te, Jovanotti

20. three songs that remind you of the person who sends this one - Simple Math, Manchester Orchestra ; I Love you, RIOPY ; Luce, Ludovico Einaudi

29. three songs that influenced you most (some songs change or save lives) - Lay Me Down, Sam Smith and John Legend (just made me realized my life was about to change) ; I’ll Stand By You, Pretenders ; Let’s Stay Together, Al Green 

(I have an alternative answer for 29 but this makes the most sense right now and fits my little personal challenge...)
