@nes_kio Le sommet politique c'était il y a déjà quelques années :

je suis navré pour tous ceux qui éprouvent encore le moindre enthousiasme pour la politique ou qui s’y intéressent sans ironie

@Neryssette huffingtonpost.fr/economie/artic…

@Neryssette ça me rappelle l'entretien qu'avait donné le patron de Veolia il y a quelques années pour " défendre le travail manuel ". Le journaliste lui avait demandé " Alors vos enfants, ils font quoi ? ". " Bah ils ont réussi à l'école alors ils sont pas dedans ".

Le patronat sortant toutes les excuses du monde en faveur de l'immigration de travail au lieu d'augmenter les salaires

When $AMD shareholders understood Dr. Su secured at least 30-40% TSMC 2nm allocation

I'm bullish on $AMD, very bullish.

@Armelle_Couvert Gm gm Armelle ! Bonne journée

@Neryssette Oui, j'aime bien la manière dont Renaud Camus parle des étrangers.

- L'Etranger de Camus c'est vraiment un chef-d'oeuvre de la littérature française - Je préfère Fyoooor Bostoevsky, George Elioet ou the Magic moutain moutain chez les étrangers

It's our 40th anniversary this month! Slime flies when you're having fun 💙

@ThePreacher313 We do not need Reform. We need to Restore Britain.

On se plain tout le temps du RN et on a souvent raison mais un tweet comparable de Reform et d’autres partis de droite occidental contiendrait un baiser entre gays et/ou 35% d’allogènes.

Daily reminder that this man was in the Epstein files explicitly for not being corruptable.

@Gumme190292 Tu as une représentation très jolie des français, concernant les moldaves, il me semble que ce soit plus la Transnistrie qui est vue comme bizarre. Bon courage dans tous les cas chère camarade !
