Ukraine on the Line: Phone Calls During Wartime

Soumis par Aggregation le dim, 03/06/2022 - 11:00
On the morning of February 24, in a Ukrainian suburb 50 miles south of Kyiv, an in-demand nail artist named Katya awakes to booming airstrikes pummeling the region. Outside her kitchen window she sees a misty red sky. Katya’s 9-year-old has slept through the blasts, but her 15-year-old is startled out of bed. She’s now waiting for her teacher to begin class online — not because of the pandemic, but because the government instructed residents to stay home as the Russian army massed at Ukraine’s borders.

You Don’t Know What Love Is — Valentine’s Day 2022

Soumis par Aggregation le lun, 02/14/2022 - 07:00
“Love in action is a harsh and dreadful thing compared with love in dreams.”  — Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov   Willa Bickham’s first husband was Jesus of Nazareth. She had just turned 20, having entered a Roman Catholic convent near her suburban Chicago home five years earlier. It was the pre-Beatles 1960s, and she wore her cousin’s wedding dress in a ceremony (all but vanished today) where novitiates become “brides of Christ” upon taking their final vows.

Lettre d’un zombie

Un zombie m'a écrit... "Si les hommes décidaient demain, dans leur grande majorité de s'accoupler avec les animaux, qu'est-ce qu'on fait ? Il faut l'imaginer, se le représenter, l'anticiper, parce qu'avec le progrès, on ne sait jamais. Pour vivre avec son temps, il faut en accepter tous les contretemps...les sauts et les soubresauts... On aura tout vu avec la modernité, n'est-ce pas ? Plus d'envers que d'endroits. Et puis avec la démocratie, on n'est pas à l'abri de la zoophilie. En vertu du principe laïc selon lequel : chacun fait ce qui lui plaît;

Le zoo humain

Soumis par Aggregation le dim, 05/31/2015 - 00:06
Les pressions de la vie moderne deviennent accablantes, le citadin harassé qualifie souvent le monde grouillant où il vit de jungle de béton. Expression pittoresque qui veut décrire le mode de vie dans un centre urbain à forte densité de population, mais ce n’en est pas moins une description grossièrement inexacte, comme pourrait le confirmer quiconque a étudié une vraie jungle.

Le libéralisme : un sida mental, un cancer sociétal

Soumis par Aggregation le lun, 05/04/2015 - 00:31
L’ère que nous traversons, celle de l’humain comme force géologique modifiant de manière irréversible l’environnement en le détruisant, est aussi la période historique du libéralisme triomphateur. Un libéralisme à appréhender comme idée morale la plus basse, comme idée de l’homme seul dans un monde qui ne serait que le prolongement de lui-même, comme idée que l’homme n’a de compte à rendre à personne, qu’il peut allègrement se départir de sa fonction sociale.

Je croirai en Dieu le jour où je le verrai danser. »    -F. Nietzsche
- On peut dire ce qu’on veut du génie humain, à force de gratifier les mâles dominants, les forts en fer, les mangeurs d’os, de laisser les vainqueurs écrire l’histoire et les marchands s’emparer du vivant avec une marge de quinze pour cent pour les actionnaires, le résultat n’est pas bien marrant.
