Auto promo du mois d'octobre

Bonjour tout le monde,

J'ai un nouveau job @Schokofabrik de Berlin. C'est un hammam turc au milieu de Kreuzberg, et géré par l'association Schokofabrik, qui est un des hauts lieux du militantisme féminin berlinois. L'endroit regroupe une épicerie, une crèche, une salle de sport et des locaux de conseil juridique et d'organisation, ainsi que le hammam.

J'adore l'ambiance tamisée et tranquille, un peu hors du temps du lieux. Imaginez-vous, quotidiennement, vous promener au milieu de femmes de tous âges, de toutes formes, qui discutent, se douchent, se frottent le dos, ou dorment, pour avoir une idée de l'atmosphère intimiste qui enveloppe mon quotidien. Cela me fait souvent penser à Broderies de Marjanne Satrapi. En tout cas, je suis ravie, et j'ai hâte de vous raconter d'autres aventures,

<3

I love you

A friend is one who makes me better.  It's with this highly meme-sounding quote that I'd like to start today's rambling.  I've recently been on a long trip for a wedding and I had the chance to meet some of my friends along the way. The older I get, the more I realize how delicate our lives are. Everyone is getting older, marrying, becoming pregnant, helping a sick parent. Mortality and life become real themes, we fixate into matter, and despite what I've laboriously tried to prove, there is indeed such a thing as cause and consequence. Our lives decant, or at least yours do. But that's not the point. Meeting my core friends always warms up my heart, especially in Berlin, which remains the town in which I feel the more rested. It probably is because the general atmosphere of the town is more reflective and critical, and life is less filtered by everyone's ambition to run towards success (🔛 this way guys). But that's not either the point. As I was notici...

Karma part 1

Hello there, Long time no see uh? Since I'm currently travelling, I am once again meeting the nomad category of Western people in Asia. There are many things to say about why we travel, and who travels. What struck me again is to see how a lot of the people I met have integrated some chakrayalam concepts, including karma.  NB: chakrayalam is the language spoken by new age yogis travlin' around the world. Though it is not restricted to them, it's a weird mixture of pseudo spiritual stuff and relevant remarks on where to find a cheap dentist in Chiang Mai, with hints of sanskrit and mystical references. So with hard work and dedication, I've reached level A2. I cannot use it because I have not been allowed by the Supreme Council of Universal Thruths than Shall Remain Secret Especially to Those Who Respect Nothing, but also, it seems that I don't care and shall risk life bannishment because indeed, I respect nothing. So, karma.  I don't intend to refer to any spir...

At the movies

Hello there, biches, Empathy. In today's world, since the dawn of time, and since man is man, the possibility for empathy has been central to some people sometimes. It's with this lame introduction that I would like to add my little contribution to our modern society's rediscovered interest in empathy. Needless to say that I am regularly tearing my hair out when I see all the Mind and Life Institute 's, or Mathieu Ricard's efforts to discuss empathy and meditation in a constructive, scientific, rational way. Not that what they say is not relevant or well-put, because it is, but OMG. I'm always wondering how on Earth have we become so completely dispassionate and mediated that we need to politely describe how a world of altruism, cooperation, renunciation to privileges maintained through violence, etc., would probably be best for everyone. OF COURSE! Stating the obvious has never required that many PhDs and/or footnotes. Fortunately, I hereby propose t...
