Quand toute la France célèbre la victoire, il peut sembler ingrat de ne pas participer à la fête. Mais parfois le passé vous rattrape et vous vous souvenez pourquoi vous avez du mal avec le foot. Parce que c’est au foot que ça a commencé.

À faire mal.

‘Indict’ was spelled ‘endite’ for 300 years before scholars decided it should look like its Latin root ‘indictare’ (“to proclaim”). [merriam-webster.com]

@DjangoWexler:

The thing about most writing advice (remove adverbs, “kill your darlings”, “write what you know”, etc) is that it’s meant for Creative Writing teachers to give 101-level students. It’s a corrective for common newbie mistakes, not intended as eternal verities. [twitter.com]

I have been waiting for this for years: @zoecello, whose music has been the single most steadfast soundtrack of my writing hours, has a new record out, and it’s beyond beautiful: [music.zoekeating.com] And she’s kindly offering a track from it: [music.zoekeating.com]

@harleivy:

in russia, the act of displaying the LGBT flag in public can get you arrested. so these 6 activists from latin america resorted to creativity: wearing uniforms from their countries’ football teams, they turned themselves into the flag and walked around moscow with pride. 🏳️‍🌈

@LMMyles:

In Babylon 5 the Minbari have this thing where the leaders of each political side get in a death beam and the side whose leader doesn’t run away before they die wins. Now, I’m not saying there aren’t moral problems with this setup, but maybe we could try it for a bit?

Spiders can “balloon” by pointing their bums at the sky, releasing silk, and taking off. People often say the silk catches on the wind. But a new study points to a more incredible explanation: [theatlantic.com]

Aux potes qui s’étranglent devant Jrochedy : je vous comprends, mais je pense que c’est exactement ce qu’il cherche.

(le débat “répondre et visibiliser” vs. “ignorer au risque de laisser faire” est vieux comme le monde, mais ce cas me semble plus net que d’autres)

@CryptoNature:

At a wildlife rehab facility I met two crows that said, “caw” in a human accent. They said it like a human reading the word “caw” aloud. The tech shook her head and said, “they’re making fun of us. People say ‘caw’ to them all day, so they’ve started impersonating us.” I <3 crows
