Have you seen the video of Macron's speech in Holland (neatly sidestepping the tu-vous trap) ? youtube. com/watch?v=tEY_9JFVVxg "C'est pourquoi je crois en l'importance du dialogue social" I hope he gets heckled every single time he makes a speech abroad fromm now on...

:) I was on the phone with my mum yesterday as she watched the news on TV and when they covered this she went like "oh you're going to like this"

Thanks for the youtube link! Amazed that he actually responded to these people's accusations with "The places that are actually violent, are the places where these kinds of actions would be forbidden", when in France these days peaceful protests are being forbidden so frequently and brazenly that last week our judiciary branch had to tell the Paris Prefecture of Police to at the very least ban protests before they're supposed to happen rather than at the last minute or after they started, as this could be seen as an attempt to dissuade people from protesting for fear of being fined... The Human Rights League was among the organisations that denounced these numerous protest bans (as well as the violent police response when people protest anyway) so the Minister of the Interior denounced the Human Rights League—and today the Prime Minister doubled down on that, by saying she used to respect this organisation but she no longer understands some of their stances. (They used to be great when they criticised infringements on human rights perpetrated by people who aren't us! now they suck.)

It's so pathetic that a President whose government is taking a clear stance against the Human Rights League now that it's criticising them, and who is being accused of violent and anti-democratic practices, has no better defence than, "There are other governments that treat their citizens way worse so stop complaining."

Don't get me wrong I'm not saying we live in a dictatorship, but I hate that he says "This is why I believe it's important to have social debate—democracy is a place where people can demonstrate, there are places in the world where you can't do that, so let's not compare situations." When in France, Macron uses the comparatively small numbers of violent protesters to discredit the whole social movement as the work of a mindless mob with no legitimacy and to justify police repression; when abroad, he uses the large numbers of peaceful protesters who continue to demonstrate despite his repression to portray himself as the President of a healthy democracy where social dialogue exists. While continuing to ignore the protests as much as he possibly can.

So about Submissive Gavin...

I need him biblically. I need him in a way God would hate. I need him to study, and it's exactly the way we're all thinking. This version of him can't top, and I'll happily take the role because the point is:

I NEED TO FUCK THE SUBMISSIVE INCUBUS.

I fell hard for Lasko upon 5 minutes of his first audio, I should not be honestly shocked I'm this downbad for a submissive, nervous mess of an Incubus that this Gavin is.

I put in my resignation a while ago, and in the reply, my old boss asked if I knew anyone with a BA in anything who would want to be a special ed. teacher (there are actually 2 vacancies, every teacher in the department.)

I'm glad I left cuz I would be the only one left from my department :/ and every crisis would fall to me and I wouldn't have backup. It would've been a safety risk for me.

But I'm also so sad, I'm gonna miss those kids.

absolutely nobody asked but on the subject of travel the one piece of advice i would give for flying in to / out of london is this:

if the flight from heathrow is only like £20 or so more expensive than gatwick/stansted/luton TAKE. THE FLIGHT. FROM HEATHROW

you are saving absolutely no money at all taking the cheaper flight to LGW, LTN, or STN

why? because gatwick, stansted, and luton are not in london they are in or near commuter towns outside of london. getting to london itself from those places (unless you're getting a lift from someone) is a coach or train ride that typically costs around £15? probably more now? each way. once you get to london you will then inevitably have further transport costs getting to wherever you're staying which will be like £2-5

heathrow, on the other hand, is not only in london but is on the london underground network. not only is the fare into the middle of london much cheaper (£6.30) but you're already on the tube you can take the tube to wherever you are staying and it will not incur additional cost

if the price difference is only £20 or so you're saving fuck-all or like maybe £2-3 each way going to the "cheaper" "airport"
