C’est officiel. lemonde.fr/politique/live/2024…
Après avoir refusé de nommer la candidate du Nouveau Front Populaire (193 députés), Macron préfère donc nommer le LR (47 députés) Michel Barnier au poste de Premier ministre.
Le Président a décidé de jeter le résultats des élections législatives à la poubelle.
Tout ça pour ça.
Jamais un chef de gouvernement sous ce régime n'avait eu si peu de légitimité pour mener une politique.
Après une dissolution, une campagne chaotique, et une victoire de la gauche, on aboutit donc à un gouvernement de droite qui ne peut compter que sur l'extrême-droite pour subsister.
Détail très important dans le CV du nouveau Premier ministre Michel Barnier : en 1981, il a voté *contre* la dépénalisation de l'homosexualité.
Macron reste dans une continuité qu'on lui connait bien depuis 2017 en nommant toujours et encore des personnalités homophobes aux postes de responsabilité.
Despite evidence, Trump calls Arlington Cemetery incident a 'made up story'

I will be in Utah in November for a conference (yes, it's #kubecon time already ⏰) and somehow it has become a habit that I always check to see if there are any good #running events in the area.
And that's how I came across the #DeadHorseUltra in #Moab. Has anyone from our illustrious group ever run this race 😁?
Any insights and/or tips? Thanks in advance 😎

@Dave3307 thx Dave, that sounds good!! Mostly slick rock is good to know, will have to use different shoes then.
The conference is in Salt Lake City and the drive to Moab is about 4 hours, so I plan to stay there for at least two days. Thx again!

By expanding illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank and refusing to consider Palestinian self-determination, “we’re watching a situation that will recur” in the Middle East, argues former US ambassador to Israel, Daniel Kurtzer.
Kurtzer tells host Steve Clemons that the war in Gaza “uncovered a weakness on the part of the United States in dealing with an extreme government in Israel”.

I'm reading a PhD Thesis about pro-wrestling, and it is coming out of the gate swinging.
It says, the WWF was built on the back of "Terry “Hulk Hogan” Bollea, a 330 pound, 6’8” blonde strongman
with off-the-charts charisma and limited technical wrestling skill" and, yes that's absolutely true but I've never read it put so directly.

I read a *lot* of academic papers on media and entertainment and most of them are dry and dense.
This one is breezy and conversational. Information dense, for sure, but written by someone who clearly enjoys reading (unlike many of the papers I read.)
"Archiving the demise of
Louisiana wrestling has value to scholars interested in the history and metaphysical
transformation of this performance practice around the United States—and, indeed,
around the world from a practice primarily watched live to a performance seen on
television, pay per view, and the Internet." (Page 25)

Hoooooooo, he's cooking.
This is absolutely my bullshit.
Examining the demise of regional wrestling in Louisiana as a microcosm for the rise of a national monoculture powered by television and eventually the internet?
You know it's going to be good.
So how the hell does that work?

In Colorado, representatives of the Southern Ute Indian Tribe and the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe have held ongoing negotiations with elections official to work out a new program to register more Native people.
They’ve met about 10 times over the last year. boltsmag.org/automatic-voter-r…
