Après les JO, Macron « n’a pas envie que la vie reprenne ses droits »

Macron se croirait-il en Corée du Nord ?

Temps de lecture = 4 minutes Macron est le descendant de Mitterrand et il fait dans la dictature. Par Arnaud Florac Après les JO, Macron « n’a pas envie que la vie reprenne ses droits » Ça y est, les Jeux olympiques sont terminés. Après vingt jours de ferveur populaire, un record de médailles, un enthousiasme jamais démenti, et en attendant les jeux paralympiques, on sent qu’une certaine…

Have you ever written a historical AU? Would love to see what you would do with that!

“Le professeur n'est pas à la maison!” she calls to whomever is banging at the door.

“S’il te plait je suis perdu,” a man’s voice replies in an accent she can’t place. Not French, certainly.

Dana rises, annoyed, from a table stacked high with books. She’d been lost in Bayes’ recent essay on probability, which her father had bought her.

She makes her way to the door, assumes Marie-Amélie is behind the house with Victor’s hand up her dress again.

Through the window she sees the man claiming to be lost. He’s about her own age, tall, wearing a suit of clothes in the English style. His hair is dark brown, tied at the nape of his neck with a green ribbon.

He looks unhappy and his boots are quite muddy.

Dana grabs the fire poker she keeps next to the door for this purpose. She keeps it tucked in the folds of her dress.

“Good day,” she says in English.

The man startles. “You speak English?”

She grips the poker tighter. “Pray, how can I help you? The professor is not home right now.”

He frowns. “Professor? I’m sorry, I’m not here for any professor. It’s only that I came out to see the country and I’ve…well. I’ve lost my way.”

Dana decides that if she needs to run him through she’d rather it be on her home turf. His clothes, while plain by French standards, are of fine stuff and newly made. His boots are well soled, his breeches have silver buckles.

“Come in,” she says, and lets him pass her. She returns the poker to the wall, then closes the door.

“You’re not English,” he observes, peering around.

“God forbid,” she says, crossing her arms. “Irish.”

He grins at that. “Well, we’ve something in common then. I’m a Massachusetts man. Oh, forgive me. Name’s Fox Mulder.” He pulls a much-abused envelope from his pocket. “Letter of introduction, if you care to peruse.”

She takes the letter but doesn’t open it.

Victor emerges from the kitchen. He has the audacity to look scandalized that she is alone with a strange man even though there is hay dust on his breeches.

“Mademoiselle Dana!” he says.

She shoos Victor back to the kitchen for refreshments. “We’re very informal here, Monsieur Mulder.”

“Just Mulder,” he says.

“Mmm. Where did you say you were staying?”

“I didn’t, but in Florac.”

Dana frowns. “Monsieur, you traveled all the way from Massachusetts to stay in…Florac? And pray, sit.” She gestures at a sofa, sits in the chair opposite.

Mulder, looking grateful, complies.

Marie-Amélie arrives with a tray of cake and wine, curtsies, and scampers back to the kitchen.

Dana scowls after her.

“I’m in Florac only as a base of operations, you could say. I’m here to do some…investigating.” He sips his wine.

She is intrigued despite herself. Bayes can wait a bit longer. “Investigating?”

He tips his chin up a bit, as though preparing for a reaction from her. “The Beast of Gévaudan,” he says.

She stares, then lets out a bark of laughter. “La Bête?” she says. “It’s a wolf!”

“They say it has a breast as wide as a horse, a body as long as a leopard's, and fur that was red with a black stripe. What wolf is that, Mademoiselle?”

She rolls her eyes. “When I was a lass I thought the barn owls were the bean-sídhe keening.”

Mulder delicately pokes at a walnut on his slice of cake. “Wolf or no, people are dying.”

“Aye, now that’s a thing people are good at around here.” She sets her wineglass down. “When you’re finished I’ll have Philippe drive you back to the village.”

“That’s very kind,” he says. He sets his plate down. “I’m ready now.”

“I need to return to my studies,” she tells him, waving over the maid. “I hope you find what you’re looking for.”

Dana leaves her guest with Marie-Amélie. She hears the door open and close, and soon the strange man from Massachusetts is forgotten amid the doctrine of chance.

Et maintenant, Sarkozy, Hollande, Cazeneuve et Bertrand au chevet de Macron

Arnaud Florac 01 septembre 2024 Lundi 2 septembre, jour de rentrée des classes, Bernard Cazeneuve, l’élégant dernier Premier ministre de François Hollande, sera de retour dans le tourbillon de la vie politique, puisqu’Emmanuel Macron le recevra, lui que l’on dit favori pour occuper à nouveau Matignon. De même, les deux précédents occupants de l’Elysée, Sarkozy et Hollande, seront eux aussi reçus…

Good grief, how do people who aren't terminally online keep up with this stuff? Do they just consult the TV Guide and pray on it?

I just feel like... it should not be easier to watch dirt racing than it is NASCAR. I get that it's all a money thing, and there's no way having a FloRacing or MAVTV would work better right now than whatever all THIS is for the people looking out for the bottom line here, but GOOD. GRIEF.

But then, maybe--and I'm sure this sentiment is VERY politically aligned with NASCAR lol--it's folly to buy into the pernicious neoliberal assumption that continuous growth is a measure of health and success! Maybe it's fine if NASCAR airs on NASCAR+ and, as on FloRacing, the announcing is the same as you get at the track, and even online breaks in between heats are punctuated by a screeching speaker system eager to tell everyone that someone parked their pickup in the fire lane and they need to go move it or they're gonna get towed.

Jour 3 : Pont de Monvert - Florac

Étape sportive, 28 kms et 840 m de dénivelé!!!

Les premiers kms montent sec, arrivée au signal de Bougès (1471m), la vue est magnifique mais elle se mérite 😳

Le chemin serpente sur la crête nous offrant les paysages ensoleillés et les premières éclosions de fleurs.

Nous croisons plusieurs randonneurs, cette étape étant commune avec le célèbre GR 70, chemin de Stevenson.

Arrivée à Florac, les trois rivières.

Demain direction Sainte Enimie en longeant le Tarn.

[ Juillet 2023 ] : Van Life - les Cévennes

On arrive dans les Cévennes au climat plus frais et venteux. On a frais, enfin! On regrette presque la chaleur de Marseille.

Les montagnes, les causses, les rivières nous amènent jusqu'à Matt et Luce, à Florac.

Entre temps, encore des galères de van, les eaux usées qui puent et qui fuient, encore et toujours a la recherche de l'eau, et puis nous sommes aussi à la recherche d'un carrossier. Une histoire d'arbre trop près du van et qui a voulu lui faire un câlin. La finalité c'est qu'il y a un renfoncement et on pense à la caution.

Mais on est là, plus soudées que jamais dans ces galères. On boit du vin, pas mal de vin et ça nous inspire des podcasts, puis des vidéos. Et on rigole beaucoup. N'est ce pas ça le plus important ?

Circuit Gorges & Causses entre Aveyron et Lozère - Mes Balades Moto

Tout le monde parle des Gorges du Tarn entre Florac et Millau en passant par Quézac, La Malène, Sainte Enimie ou les Vignes sur la D907B (Lozère). Et si vous n’avez qu’une seule journée dans le secteur, c’est probablement un très bon choix. Mais si vous cherchez une alternative pour avoir moins de monde ou découvrir d’autres routes, que diriez-vous des Gorges de la Dourbie et des Gorges de la…

Ispagnac - Florac

That day I had hazy views of the Tarn Valley I walked in the day before, the Grandes Causses with their vast plateaus and the steep valleys of the southern Cevennes I would hike in next.

This landscape has been formed and shaped by humans driving livestock up on the pastures in summer and into the valleys in winter for millenia. It is so intricably linked to agro-pastoralism and transhumance that a whole ecosystem would vanish if the animals would not keep the plaines free of trees and the humans would not tend to the sweet chestnuts, the paths and drailles, the terraces and the stone huts. It is now a UNESCO world heritage and the sound of the bells was the soundtrack to my hike the whole ten days.
