High schoolers have been protesting to ask for more funds for school and more teachers.

Police answers has been violent. It's an institution made under Nazi Germany rule. Condamned by the UN, Amnesty International, and others over how autoritarian the gvt is

The young girl on the left was randomly picked by the police as she was standing in front of her school. She kept screaming and crying while he was strangling her that she was 14years old and did nothing wrong.

His answer afterwards as she was crying ? " She looked older". Here is his argument about violence on a young girl. The girl later confronted him while vryong and multiple policemen took her away

A policeman called on a major radio saying that he gets sexual pleasure from hitting "the left and others". That it gives him sensations of pleasure that gives him " a hard-on" (he specifically used the word " erection") " endorphines" a bit that it was different from when you're with a woman" and yet similar" I do not know if I can link twitter. I will put it and then delete if I can't. It's in french

Black kids and arab children are the most victims of this. I won't post the pictures but one 14yo black child was handcuffed and hold by multiple policeman after fainting

A 15yo child had his hand and upper arm teared of in front of other children, by a grenade

Another child was almost killed by a policeman who tried to drown him in the river

They drove a car into the kids too and as - always- they also used gaz. France has been condemned by the UN

Multiple children have suffered physical violence, sexual harassment including rape threats ( Mathilde Panot one of our national deputee talks about it.) by the police. Including one child who said the policeman took down his pants, his underwear, forced him against a bed in his cell, and while one was holding him, another one was hitting his head while saying " your lawyer, she isn't here anymore, you little slut, you're alone"

Almost 90% of the kids arrested (almost 6000 in couple days) are minors. Among them children who were protesting, others who were just around, others who were picked up in the streets.

These are not rumors. These are documented, filmed.

This is France, the country where the president (Macron, center but really rightwing), the head of the National assemblee ( rightwing ) and the head of the Senate ( rightwingt) have all refused to open an investigation on Epstein. Which means that nothing is happening ( to open a criminal case, you need the prosecutor agreement, but in France prosecutors are not independant (link in French) . They are under the autority of the gvt.)

Sexual violence, physical one, against children all around the country, mysoginist insults & scorns towards the mothers too while they try to save their kids or beg the police to calm down

A mother was begging and crying on camera for police to stop because they are " just kids" and the police was dismissive of her, and annoyed. You can see the video on Instagram under Rennes actu

The gvt answer ? Announcement of less teachers (which the children were protesting against. They need more). So far one prosecutor lied twice front camera, despite the images saying different from what he said. One of the rightwing sent a false student ( a black kid) to talk to the journalists and pretend he was a HS. He got caught as one of the militant of the party and not at all in high school.

Police has been alleged to use snapchat to pretending to be arab children immigrants from morroco and Algeria to get names of children protesting and where they would go protest. But they can't imitate kids talking so they got caught each time. They were using slangs, putting arab names and arab flags but it of course sounded wrong. Likewise shared on twitter in french.

And in Haut de Seine ( a department near Paris. It's where Versailles is), the prefect of that place wrote on twitter :

"Parents of youths involved in violence summoned

The Prefect of Hauts-de-Seine, Alexandre Brugère, the Public Prosecutor, Yves Badorc, and the Director of National Education Services, Frédéric Fulgence, met this morning with the parents of three teenagers.

A clear message: you are morally and legally responsible for your children. Aware of the seriousness of the situation, the parents firmly committed to ensuring that these events will not happen again.

Further meetings will be held this week."

And they posted a picture of some parents ( blurry but you can still guess see or guess their ethnicity)

At the same time as the kids and now University students are arrested, attacked, and threatened, all around the country, Paris Fashion Week is on going. The city is small: 20km east west, and 10km south to north. PFW takes place within the city, so every year it blocking streets, bridges, gardens etc therefore are near the places were this violence takes place.

Children of the bourgeoisie and of more privileged background are also protesting. As Henry IV (the most elite HS school in the country) high schoolers were chanting in front of the news " We aare priviliged and we want to share (so that everyone gets the same education and studying conditions)" " On est privilégié, et on veut partager"

Slavic mythology is full of extraordinary warriors known as bogatyrs. They are capable of fighting armies by themselves, their deaths cause nature itself to change, for example from the place where one falls a mighty river might be born. Even their horses were supernatural beasts that had fire inside them. And until now these tales never excluded women.

Polyanitsas, female warriors, appeared in legends as those who would never marry someone weaker and less skilled then them. They saved cities with their might and wit, fought men and gave birth to mighty heroes. They were not presented as something unusual and wrong among other legends.

In newest retellings of tales produced by modern russia they were reduced to wives of bogatyrs that never wore armour and never held a spear. But they will not be erased.

I am sharing information about Iraq’s new Ja’fari Personal Status Law and the concerns surrounding its potential impact on women and families in Iraq.
In 2025, Iraq passed an amendment to its Personal Status Law, allowing the application of Ja’fari Shiite jurisprudence to family matters for those covered by the amendment. A related code of religious rulings was subsequently approved and published in the Iraqi Official Gazette.
The attached image summarizes provisions that have raised concerns about women’s rights, including:
**Guardianship:** A woman’s independence and ability to make personal decisions.
**Child custody:** The conditions under which mothers may retain custody of their children after divorce.
**Marriage and divorce:** Changes to the legal framework governing family matters.
**Financial rights:** Concerns about the protection of women’s financial and housing rights.
These are serious issues that deserve international attention, independent legal analysis, and accurate reporting.
I am hoping to reach international journalists, human rights organizations, legal researchers, and people who can help bring greater awareness to this issue in Iraq.
If you have reliable sources, legal expertise, or contacts within organizations that work on women’s rights, please share them in the comments.
**How can we help bring international attention to the legal changes affecting women in Iraq?**

In 1990, activists in Latin America and the Caribbean launched September 28 as a regional day of action for safe abortion. It’s since grown into a global movement calling for safe, legal, accessible and stigma-free abortion care which has made real gains.

Argentina legalized abortion through 14 weeks, Colombia decriminalized it through 24. But opposition groups are rolling that progress back by defunding, delaying, and obstructing access. Nearly 40% of women worldwide live under restrictive laws, and as a result, unsafe abortion remains a leading cause of preventable maternal death.

The cost of abortion restrictions is why rollbacks and backlash haven’t stopped this movement. Every step forward was made possible by organizers, healthcare providers, and advocates sharing strategies across borders. This September 28, we honor that work, and everyone’s role in protecting it. What’s yours?

Released in 2024, it's an iconic new-gen anime about ghosts, aliens and school-aged dorks. It has one of my favourite openings, unique visuals and pleasant humour. It is dynamic and fun, and main characters very much act their age by being brave and bold facing dangerous situations but also sometimes stupid and shy with their emotions towards each other.

I liked that this anime, while being whimsical and fun, also constantly reminds you that the danger is real and characters are just school kids whose powers have limits, that they can potentially not make it out unharmed.

And, of course, I loved how Ayase is written. She is confident and knows that she is pretty but is not a pick-me, has female friends and can be doubtful and jelaous as humans are.

The anime tells about shinto gods in modern japan. Besides being beautiful and full of action it is warm and personal as it focuses on stories of gods and ghosts who serve them.

Gods are immortal and laws don't apply to them but it doesn't mean they don't have to change or can do anything they want: sometimes meeting a right person can force you to abandon violent past and facing your old pain can make you stronger than ever.

It has moments of characters being perverts for humour but tolerable amount, and female characters are so real in both their strength and weakness, respectfully written and designed (yes even Bishamon but that's just my opinion), agentic and decisive

So I was listening to the latest episode of Behind the Bastards and there they were talking about post-abolition period and a movement that was called Fusion that brought black and white population of a small town of Wilmington together to form a progressive mixed government. It was tragically killed in the root but the way they talked about it made me think of Garnet. She's obviously black coded, but even more, she IS a fusion, and not just some fusion, but one of characters coming from different classes one of them being aristocracy and the other being lower class, and together they rid themselves of this system and become something new and beautiful

I have to say I'm not american so maybe it was really obvious to everyone who is or maybe I'm wrong about this entirely, let me know

All parks have turned into a withered savannah again. Except for no mowing and rewilded spots. It's almost as if a monoculture with roots 2cm long and leaf about the same length can't survive 35°C for couple of weeks at a time.

So I wanted to look at hand pics for references and found out that r/hands got banned. Ok, I see that search returns r/ManHands which to me looks a bit thirsty but decent, so surely there should also be one for women's? Oh wait it's marked and discussed as a fetish sub for posting exact same content

Please please share the information about tge initiative to implement scanning of ALL PHOTOS AND CAMERA ON DEVICE LEVEL

I cannot understate how big of a privacy infringement this is, labour government is going crazy and no one is even trying to stop it or even talks about it
