Gisèle Pelicot is on the stand today and asked about her decision to continue using the surname "Pelicot".
Gisèle explains that when the trial began her children were "ashamed" of the name.
She adds: "I have grandchildren who are called that.
"Today, I want them to be proud of their grandmother.
"My name is known across the world now. They shouldn't be ashamed of carrying that name.
"Today we will remember Gisèle Pelicot."
Yes we will. What a woman.

This is what Russian terror on Europe looks like. 120 missiles and 90 drones, all targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure. Absolutely insane that this is allowed to continue unabated with no real consequences for Putin. And yet we don’t let Ukraine strike back properly.
Having always been mildly curious about the topic, I decided to use my nonexistent financial and legal expertise to find out how much money Navalny's "anti-corruption foundation" makes and just what it is they spend it on - and it has been one extraordinary journey! 🧵
Now Published! RE:THINK Academy-Magazine #2
Our latest edition is offering articles and interviews dealing with ongoing conflicts, but also with proposals for ways forward in world politics. The role of the Eastern and Central European states in the face of Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine is once again a central topic that we address in this magazine from different perspectives. The same applies to China's role in a changing world order.
We hope these insights inspire continued dialogue and reflection on the future of international politics and diplomacy.

I love people who make others feel seen, heard, valued, supported, and loved. People with pretty hearts, open minds, and peaceful souls. The rare gems who make you feel deeply understood, give you complete freedom to be yourself and make you feel beautiful just for being YOU.
In support with @NorwayMFA, we hosted 22 #Ukrainian representatives from civil society organisations.
The workshop fostered social cohesion, provided dialogue facilitation training, promoted integrating internally displaced people & showcased the resilience of Ukrainian society.
The thread will be in English. I will be asking for retweets of this thread. So, a week ago, I went to the Desna River in the Chernihiv region to see what's happening there and how the pollution of Ukrainian rivers Seym and Desna looks. In short – it’s terrifying.
Why do many Russians, even those against the war in Ukraine, still see themselves as victims?
Dr. Botakoz Kassymbekova, a historian specializing in Soviet and Russian history, delves into the concept of “Imperial Innocence” and its deep roots in Russian society.

Women in Afghanistan are being obliterated—no voice, no face, no existence. The Taliban’s latest decrees are nothing short of barbaric: women banned from singing, reciting poetry, or even speaking aloud in public. Their faces and bodies must hidden from the world.
This isn’t just an Afghanistan tragedy; it is a stain on the global conscience, brought about by our failure to act.
