According to what Euronews reports, Ottawa is already in talks with Brussels to join the Erasmus+ exchange program, Horizon Europe research funding, and the mutual recognition of professional qualifications. 💪 (translated)

Thanks to Trump, we are taking away a privileged relationship with the USA and Australia could follow. Something good 👇🏿 (translated)

Artem Chapeye, a Ukrainian pacifist writer who enlisted at the beginning of the Russian invasion: Here’s why in Ukraine even people who consider themselves pacifists, anarchists, and young Queer individuals join the army and fight against the aggressor. (translated)

Here we have gotten used to it, but since bad faith reigns (despite it being well known that I have always supported the Ukrainian Resistance): I am speaking for myself and I do not defend those who believe that Ukraine should surrender to the invader. And I am talking about the young Russians under a dictatorship. Period. (translated)

That young people do not want to go to war is the healthiest thing in the world. Their lives are torn apart and mutilated. I don't think this has anything to do with supporting the youth of a country like Ukraine, invaded by a thug. Not to mention the poor Russian boys. (translated)

Kremlev, the Russian who paid for Trump's son's wedding, is a former member of the Night Wolves motorcycle gang, went to China with Putin, and is personally sanctioned by Ukraine for his role in the kidnapping of children. (translated)

Then, presumed "colleagues" should not be offended if I block them. I made a choice long ago against fake news, sovereigntism, anti-vaxxers, and every form of propagandistic lie, no matter where it comes from. Studying, verifying, adhering to REALITY is mental hygiene. (translated)

Arendt stated that one of the characteristics of authoritarian regimes was to subvert reality. The leader of the Afd who wants to rewrite history by describing Hitler not as a man of the right and conservative, but as a communist is disturbing. (translated)

"Perhaps one of the most retweeted threads on X. What do you think? 'Do you want to start a superintelligent RL race without a rigorous understanding of its mind?'" (translated)

The Foreign Minister warns that Israel will close the British consulate in East Jerusalem and prohibit British parliamentarians from accessing the support center for Gaza after London sanctioned Israeli settlements. Between Putin and Israel, the UK is not very loved. (translated)

They wrote that they would sign to have a party like the AfD in Italy. Read the thread by @GiovaQuez about the deplorable and neo-Nazi candidates elected in Saxony-Anhalt. If you want to exaggerate, you can read "Fascism and Big Capital" by Guerin. (translated)

The British Foreign Minister Ed Miliband has announced a trade ban on goods produced in Israeli settlements in occupied West Bank. (translated)

Self-harm and suicide attempts: at the Meyer in Florence, 17 minors hospitalized over a weekend. In my years of hard work, I have accompanied countless of them to hospitalization. These are tragic experiences for the parents and also for us in the field. And no one does anything. (translated)

Abandoned during childhood, war traumas, friends dismembered, wife died after childbirth. Bion turned all of this into a work that still inspires us today. A thread on the life of one of the greatest psychoanalysts ever 🧵 (translated)

When they tell you or tell your son that "boys don't cry," quote this to them. (translated)

Men suffer from anxiety and panic but very often they don’t say it out of shame. I must say I am moved by everything you are writing to me these days. There is such a need to be able to talk, to open up. Normalizing being HUMAN 🙏 (translated)

It has been all day and for years I have been carrying forward a completely different thought. And I confess that I owe a lot to my male patients. No, the men who do not kill are not an exception. The majority is itself a victim of a vulgar and violent culture. (translated)

The generalized anger towards the male gender as such is a reaction to a grief. A grief and femicide, that of #Lorena, which cannot leave one breathless. Maturity also means to let alone those who today cannot cope, those who today are scared, angry, and grieving. (translated)

Shouting "faggot" at a child, with the mothers silent, is a cultural failure of a society. It is total ignorance of basic psychology that should be TAUGHT first of all to the parents. (translated)

Men are culturally taught that they must have a big penis, money, stability, strength. That they are not what they feel but what they feel they must be. They are victims of this culture. And some become perpetrators. SOME. The culture must change, for the good of EVERYONE. (translated)
