Wait, starfish position? Am I doing sex wrong?

Yeah, not to be pessimistic but I’m a bit scared that they’ll just turn her into a gender-swapped Geralt. Ciri has her own things going on that make her special and an interesting character, she doesn’t need Witcher mutations

Meh, this is largely a debate over semantics since the mere notion of a “French people” wouldn’t have made sense at the time. “Frenchness” isn’t an ethnicity, it’s a mix of many different peoples that mixed and intertwined over the years (celts, romans, germanic tribes, immigrants from all over Europe…) and that eventually were all brought together as subjects of the french kingdom.

Normans weren’t “french” in the modern sense of the word, but then again very few people in what would later become modern France would have at that time : they all would have considered themselves “Provençal”, or “Breton”, or “Lorrain” who just happened to live in a Duchy that swore fealty to the king of France.

All things considered, William the Conqueror was a lord of the french kingdom, swore fealty to the king of France and spoke French, so he was no less (but no more, granted) French than any other of his peers. Whether you want to call him french is up to you but is largely an anachronism

And decision-makers at that company feeling good about themselves at no cost whatsoever for the company or themselves.

Sure, that’s great but it’s not even the point. Fundamental research and other type of “useless” scientific endeavors help humanity as a whole to better understand our universe but would never be privately funded because they don’t have any concrete and immediate financial benefits. This is precisely what a government should finance, because no one else would do it and yet it’s small stuff like that that make us collectively move forward as a species

For those who don’t know, french gendarmes are part of the military. Those Israeli policemen just assaulted a French soldier on French soil which, you know, is usually a pretty big diplomatic no-no

Sure, but you can bet right-wing parties around Europe are taking notes right now and will get closer and closer to Trump in the next few years, just like they did last time

Please don’t do anything rash. The fight still goes on, the not-fascist part of America needs you! Love and support from France

I have no skin in this game since I don’t live in the US, but we’ve been in a similar situation here in France regarding the constant Macron vs Lepen elections. For what it’s worth, I feel sick everytime I vote for Macron, but I always remember that a racialized fried told me “If you can’t even bring yourself to feel slightly sick to protect minorities from fascism, then are you sure you’re actually an ally?”

Yay, HEMA memes!

Reminds me of the french politician who talked about “Larry Skywalker and that weird bear”

Yeah the amount of plastic wrapping in this picture is concerning, I’m curious where that abomination comes from

I hate the subscription model so much

I think the word genre comes directly from the french word (“genre”, meaning “type”), which in the plural form is “genres”. I don’t think “genera” means anything, it’s probably a typo

Same here

You created this post in order to give yourself an alibi when someone notices this game appears in your “Last games played”, didn’t you?

If that is supposed to be your ultimate proof that horseshoe theory is real, you might have some more convincing to do

The Rich Asshole class is OP honestly, hopefully they nerf it soon

Macron is the President, not the PM, so he doesn’t have to leave. Moreover, he’s the only one who can appoint a new PM, so all the NFP can do is put forward a candidate and hope His Majesty Macron deems him/her to be worthy. The whole situation is essentially a soft coup by Macron and his party, there’s no way around it
