[…] François-Xavier Fauvelle, professeur au Collège de France et spécialiste de l’Afrique ancienne, et Anne Lafont, historienne de l’art, ont réuni une série d’études qui viennent à bout, s’il en était encore besoin, de cette mythologie qui considère l’Afrique comme un continent à part, étranger à la globalisation, un continent immobile, qui ne serait pas entré dans l’histoire, ou qui n’y serait entré que grâce à la colonisation. Ce livre, exceptionnel à plus d’un titre, démontre tout le contraire…[…]

Les non-binaires au nom de la parité?

La convention de Québec Solidaire était malaisante en ta***.

Alors que le parti politique se réunissait à Gatineau pour le vote de la prochaine co-porte-parole femme, un vote confiance pour Gabriel Nadeau-Dubois et des propositions. Or, le parti s'est retrouver dans l'eau chaude à propos de la parité.

Les hommes sont désormais exclu des candidatures d'élection partielle. Mais on nous dit que c'est temporaire.

Qui croit vraiment à ce genre de parole?

Recherche de parité

QS qui se veut progressiste nous démontre une fois de plus que la gauche canadienne se radicalise au nom de la diversité, l'inclusion... et par conséquence la discrimination.

Alors qu'il compte plus de 8 hommes et 4 femmes, c'est pas demain matin ou même avant 2026 que la parité va être exaucé. Pour eux, il croit d'une élection partielle peut tomber du ciel à tout moment comme leur version fantasmée de la transition écologique donc la doctrine est plus qu'un rêve au lieu d'un avenir envisagé.

Pourtant, ces derniers sont hypocrite à un tel point qu'ils ont réussi à faire élire Guillaume Cliche-Rivard dans la partielle de Saint-Henri--Sainte-Anne en mars 2023 sans critiques. Mais cette de Jean-Talon en octobre 2023 fut l'électrochoc tout ça à cause d'une personne qui voulait influencer le vote des membres.

N'empêche que cette épisode nous sert de devoir mémoire soi-disant que ce parti est visiblement condamné à s'enfoncer dans ses idéologies qui sont majoritairement déconnecté de la réalité. Est-ce que la construction sociale du candidat va changer de quoi aux crises actuelles?

En autre la question est: Est-ce que Québec Solidaire rêve d'un monde sans les hommes pour l'instant?

On aurait pu s'attendre à un retour de flamme massif fasse à cette proposition mais QS est comme Cuba aux moindres critiques de la gouvernance. Mais quelle réalité minable dans ce parti politique, seul Olivier Bolduc claque la porte à tous jamais avec courage. On est très loin des réponses d'Alexandre Leduc et Etienne Grandmont qui se rangent derrière la banalisation de la discrimination positive.

Ne cherchons pas à trouver des raisons pour contourner la réalité des mots. Il y a désormais une présence naissante de misandrie chez Québec Solidaire.

Ne nous inventons pas de scénarios mais il est possible que Québec Solidaire exagéra prochainement en se plaignant à nouveau parce qu'il n'y a pas assez de diversité au sein de la formation et vont faire la une pour avoir adopter une proposition raciste soit bannir les candidatures de personnes blanches.

Manon Massé misandre?

Voilà la pièce pyrotechnique de cette folie misandre soit la députée de Sainte-Marie--Saint-Jacques qui approuve une telle sottise. Rappelons la circonscription que représente Manon Massé compte le quartier montréalais Le Village (Le Village Gai pour les vieilles âmes) qui abrite la communauté LGBTQ+. Massé met elle son siège en jeu pour 2026?

Est-ce les femmes transgenres peuvent devenir misandre ou encore les hommes transgenres peuvent devenir sexiste? Question difficile à répondre.

Tout fois rappelons nous le bonheur LGBTQ+ n'est qu'aujourd'hui de façade et s'assombrit.

"UN ETRANGE ENLEVEMENT RUE FABRE!" La Patrie. May 22, 1933. Page 3. ---- Une jeune fille aurait été attaquée et enlevée par deux inconnus voyageant en auto. ---- Une jeune fille, dont on ne mit ni le nom ni l'âge aurait été enlevée par deux inconnus voyageant dans une automobile peu après minuit cette nuit. Le drame se serait déroulé sur la rue Fabre au dire de doux femmes qui racontérent à la police en avoir été témoins.

Peu après minuit Mme J. L Tremblay et Mlle Tanguay, 4456 rue Garuler, passaient sur la rue Marie-Anne près de Fabre, quand elles virent une automobile routière, dont les toiles étalent baissées, arrêter près du trottoir de la rue Fabre où passait une jeune fille. L'auto filait du nord au sud rue Fabre et s'arrêta en face du numéro 4390.

Deux hommes descendirent de l'automobile et se jetèrent soudain sur la jeune fille qu'ils entrainerent dans l'automobile, malgré les cris qu'elle poussait.

Des que la jeune fille fut dans l'automobile, dirent les deux femmes témoins, le véhicule démarra à toute vitesse vers le sud de la rue Fabre et s'engagea dans le parc Lafontaine où elle disparut.

Le sergent Nadeau envoya immédiatement des agents dans parc et l'automobile de l'escouade radiophonique du district 25 s'y rendit, mais on ne retrouva aucune trace de l'auto mystérieux ou de la jeune fille. La Sureté fit également enquête.

U.S. Spy Anne Sacoolas Avoids Prison Time in British Teen Harry Dunn’s Death

Barbie Latza Nadeau/The Daily Beast LONDON—Former U.S. spy Anne Sacoolas avoided jail Thursday when she was sentenced to eight months in prison suspended for 12 months for the wrongful death of 19-year-old Harry Dunn in August 2019. She did not attend her sentencing hearing on Thursday after the U.S. government, described in court documents as her employer, advised her not to. “There is an…

You got any resources on anything related to mushrooms as offerings? Just found out the author of a book I cherished is extremely racist.

Kinda. Yes and no. 

Mushrooms are quite badly documented tbh but here are a few paths to consider taking, though not necessarily as offerings: 

1. Ancient source-wise, you want to check Historia Plantarum by Theophrastus. The ancients had a hard time defining what mushrooms were, and for the most part, considered them plants, though weird plants. For later Antiquity, consider Pliny’s Natural History. 

2. Academical source-wise, the only author I know who has really focused on mushrooms is Anne Helttula. Unfortunately, the most relevant article isn’t, to my knowledge, available online. Here’s the reference:  Mushrooms in ancient Greece and Rome, in: OpusculaIRF 4, 1989. If you find it, please tell me lol. 

However, are available online 2 more specialized ones. One is about truffles (Truffles in Ancient Greece and Rome in: Arctos, Acta Philological Fennica, 1996) and the other explores possible mushroom vessels (read here). 

More generally, however, you can also explore food-related books: 

John Wilkins, Robin Nadeau, A companion to Food in the Ancient World

John Wilkins, Shaun Mill, Food in the Ancient World

John F. Donahue, Food and Drink in Antiquity

And that’s only for the food aspect, which is probably the most likely one to make you think about mushroom in an offering context. That is, the logic was probably less “this is a mushroom thus I can offer it” rather than “this mushroom I can eat, thus I can offer it”. 

I think there’s a lot of knowledge we’ve lost there. Mushrooms appear in sources as a new, luxurious delicacy for the roman elite... but it’s possible that knowing which mushrooms were good for consumption was known by populations in foresty areas like Arcadia for example. So while, maybe, and this is just a hypothesis, a hunter or a shepherd would have known and offered mushrooms to Pan and the Nymphs, it’s possible this knowledge never made it through the cities and/or literature.

I wish I had a more satisfying answer but yeah, it’s kind of a blind spot.

The living wage in the United States is $16.54 per hour, or $68,808 per year, in 2019, before taxes for a family of four (two working adults, two children), compared to $16.14 in 2018. The minimum wage does not provide a living wage for most American families. A typical family of four (two working adults, two children) needs to work nearly four full-time minimum-wage jobs (a 75-hour work week per working adult) to earn a living wage

540 Local Elected Officials From All 50 States Urge Prez Trump to Import More Refugees to U.S.

Joe Biden has promised to make this happen, including taking in foreigners from terrorist hotspots around the world. In fact, Joe Biden was one of the original architects of the fraud-ridden refugee program that has destroyed neighborhoods across the U.S.

by Ann Corcoran

I told you here that the refugee industry was working on a letter to the President urging him to get the refugee flow into America moving again.

Yesterday they sent the letter with 540 signatories.

Says Amnesty International:

By signing this letter, these elected officials have joined together to voice their commitment to welcoming refugees in their communities and reviving the United States’ legacy as a leader in refugee resettlement.

I notice something missing from the letter. It avoids giving the President a number, but the industry has made it very clear!

They want 95,000 refugees to begin arriving on October first.

The President could make a decision this month on how many refugees might be invited to live in the US in FY2021. He could also legally set the ceiling at zero.

All of my posts on the topic are tagged FY2021.

Here are the signatories from yesterday.  The list is handy for identifying those local elected officials who are changing America by changing the people.

I don’t know why the organizers think that these open borders advocates will hold any sway with the President, but they sure make it handy for you to identify the other side where you live. Target them for retirement when they come up for re-election!

(For a little additional fun, see last year’s list here.)

They say the list is bipartisan, but there is no indication of party affiliation.  You will need to look through those listed in your state to see if Republicans are among those looking to import more poverty to your city.

Looking over pastoral canvaswork pictures from the 18th century can lead to a distinct feeling of déjà vu.

One of the more common motifs from these schoolgirl projects was a reclining shepherdess, all taken from the same source illustration but worked in different ways.

Here, you're seeing the work of Ann Gardner, Alice Mather, Temperance Parker, Alethea Stiles, and Esther Stoddard along with other anonymous canvaswork panels presumed to have been worked by other 18th century Boston-area students; click on the images for captions, accession numbers, etc.

Want to embroider your own reclining shepherdess? Erica Wilson’s “Shepherd and Shepherdess Needlepoint Kit” occasionally comes up on eBay (click here to search for it); it's based on the Ann Gardner panel at the Met, I think. (Other panels from related 18th century canvaswork embroideries also come up in 1990s kits from It’s Polite to Point.)

delphine is the second child (out of three) of an actor and an actress who are quite famous within the province of québec, though they’ve also done some french-canadian/québécois films that also did well internationally (think like, anne dorval in xavier dolan’s movies. not anne dorval’s personality at all though egoierogieroigjer).

delphine’s parents spoilt all of their children equally, and they like....... really spoilt them. like, i wouldn’t call delphine a spoilt brat, but it’s not that far from the truth. delphine nadeau is used to getting what she wants, when she wants it, and how she wants it. she’s not used to being told no, and doesn’t exactly react well to that. (not in like...... a physical/romantic way, though. no’s of that nature are respected and appreciated by delphine.)

ALCOHOL TW. she’s had one serious boyfriend in her life; they were high school sweethearts and just broke up because delphine wanted things to get more serious and he didn’t. right now, delphine’s still heartbroken, and her feelings for him are still strong. she’s been trying to distract herself from that a lot, though, by going out to bars and clubs and getting super drunk and things like that. 

she has two best friends she forms a trio with, and another best friend who’s more like the donna to her jackie. she was definitely popular in high school, though whether or not she was liked is debatable. honestly? probably was one of the mean girls in high school. she wasn’t mean, per se, but wasn’t necessarily an angel(tm) to the people outside of her little clique. plus, she’s always had no tact and could be brutally honest with people when she didn’t like something about them, which can be taken quite harshly.

she was also a bit of a trouble maker? like, in a mischievous kind of way, mostly. like playing pranks on teachers but never being suspected bc she looked like an angel and faked being worried about them.

used to be a cheerleader! she did competitive cheerleading since the age of eight, but stopped at the age of sixteen when she decided she wanted to be serious about acting; she couldn’t exactly deal with both at the same time.

takes really good care of her appearance, because she can be quite superficial, and she loves feeling pretty; which she does pretty much all the time, but still.

currently has a recurring small-ish role in a french-canadian cop show, and often does lil roles in international movies and tv shows that get filmed in montréal (which happens a lot; a lot of movies get filmed here, and she takes full advantage of it).

she drives from ellingham to montréal and from montréal to ellingham a lot, but she honestly doesn’t mind it because she loves driving. it makes her feel so free, and whilst she tends to dislike huge responsibilities in general, she does like that responsibility.

please check out my lil connections’ page for connection ideas!!!!!  

OH!!!!! and the nadeau family moved to ellingham when delphine was 11

SÉANCE #4: Angoisses et vertiges du numérique

En 2017, les données recueillies par l’Institut de la statistique du Québec révélaient que 88,1% de la population québécoise utilisait Internet à des fins personnelles (Bernier, 2017 :  En ligne, 1). À l’échelle mondiale, en 2017, on parle de plus de 3,9 milliards d’usagers à travers la planète ( Sergerie, 2018 : En ligne, 1er par.). Alors que certains consacrent peu de leur temps sur le cyberespace, d’autres en consacrent beaucoup plus. Notamment, en 2017, 10,6% de la population québécoise affirmait y passer plus de 30 heures par semaine (Bernier, 2017 :  En ligne, 1). Avec le temps, de nouveaux problèmes reliés à la consommation d’Internet ont fait leur arrivée, créant ainsi de nouvelles inquiétudes chez les chercheurs et chez les populations.

Combien de fois par jour regardons-nous notre téléphone dans l’espoir d’y découvrir de nouvelles notifications, et ce, sans même avoir entendu notre appareil sonner? Combien de temps puis-je passer à naviguer sur le web alors que je sais  pertinemment qu’une tonne de travaux et de lectures plus importants m’attendent patiemment? Bien souvent, mon utilisation d’Internet nuit à mon efficacité et cela me semble parfois inquiétant.

Une question se pose : pouvons-nous développer une dépendance au Web? La cyberdépendance existe-t-elle réellement? Certains acteurs refusent de considérer l’utilisation du Web elle-même comme étant problématique en soi. D’autres pensent que ce sont des applications qui peuvent être la cause d’addictions (Juneau, 2017 : En ligne, iii). Or, certains y voient un sérieux problème et refusent de le négliger. D’ailleurs, la cyberdépendance figure maintenant parmi les troubles traités par les psychologues. Celle-ci peut causer de l’anxiété, des signes de dépression, des troubles d’humeur et peut affecter les relations interpersonnelles (Acier, Kerm, Nadeau et Nadeau, 2011 : En ligne, 21-23).

Finalement, de nouvelles inquiétudes, notamment sur la cyberdépendance, ont fait surface depuis l’avènement d’Internet. Selon moi, nous devons nous ouvrir les yeux sur le problème afin de trouver d’éventuelles solutions.
