Public executions on tv and in the street is meant to stop a rebellion before it can even start. American techno-fascism has reached its final form. Billionaires and christian nationalist politicians no longer have any consent of the governed. So they will govern solely through force

So for this trip to Vienna in December, my former colleague confirmed that she'll be there to tag along with us. YEAH! But then I realised I have to juggle between French, English, and German. My partner doesn't speak English and my friend doesn't speak French. And both of them don't speak German😅

13 years ago we went on our first trip to Austria. We actually stayed at the former home of the Trapp family which was turned into a hotel just 5k out of Salzburg. Salzburg turned out to be our favourite European city because we came back to it last year.

Karen Bass’s LAPD is openly defying a judge’s order to hand over moonlighting records, and it's obvious why. They are desperately hiding a shadow workforce where cops moonlight for ICE contractors, creating blatant conflicts of interest. It's time to enforce the subpoena and demand accountability.

Glad to see the news media standing in unison against Trump and for the First Amendment. But they have a lot more work to do…

Good, but difficult question because each place has a different significance for me. For the moment it has to be the Netherlands for its public transportation and its food.

One of my favourite photos of Aby. This was back in 2015 when we took a roadtrip and she was our co-pilot. Her actually dad is in the back. I'm her dog uncle. Tu me manques toujours ma p'tites fille ❤️

The Ukrainian military is one of the most innovative fighting forces on earth, and its people are even more remarkable. That's exactly why our commitment to them matters more than ever. I review my full trip at the link below in the comments, give it a listen and a read!
