Sinnvollste Stunde des ganzen Jahres!
Il naît dans un hôpital pour indigents du 6e arrondissement de Paris. Ses parents attendent un visa pour l'Amérique. Le visa n'arrivera jamais.
22 mai 1924. Le garçon vient au monde dans une famille d'immigrés arméniens. Son père, ancien baryton, est le fils d'un cuisinier du Tsar. Sa mère a fui le génocide depuis la Turquie. Ils ouvrent un petit restaurant rue de Seine où le père chante pour les exilés d'Europe centrale. Les recettes ne couvrent jamais les dépenses.
Le gamin monte sur scène à 9 ans. Auditions, petits rôles au théâtre, figuration au cinéma. Pas de diplôme. 1m63. On lui dit que sa voix est cassée, trop grave, trop rauque. Pendant vingt ans, tous les directeurs de salle le refusent.
En 1946, une femme le remarque. Édith Piaf. Elle l'embarque en tournée, d'abord comme chauffeur et secrétaire. C'est en l'écoutant écrire des chansons dans la voiture entre deux concerts qu'elle comprend ce qu'il vaut. Il écrit pour elle, pour Bécaud, pour tout le monde sauf pour lui. Il faudra attendre 1956 pour que la scène française accepte enfin de l'écouter.
Ensuite, plus personne ne l'a arrêté. 1 200 chansons en huit langues. 180 millions de disques. Soixante films. Ambassadeur d'Arménie. Héros national arménien. Il a chanté jusqu'à la veille de sa mort, à 94 ans.
Charles Aznavour. Né il y a 102 ans jour pour jour. Dans un hôpital pour indigents. D'une famille qui attendait un visa qui n'est jamais arrivé.
La Bohème, c'est lui.
I’m an immigrant who’s lived and worked in the UK for 16 years. I have a North American accent and I’m white.
I’ve never once been told to ‘go back’ to my ‘shithole country’ or to ‘stop stealing jobs from British people’.
You’re not concerned about immigration. You’re racist.
Plot-Twist: Plötzlich haben Männer Angst vor Missbrauch… 😂 Die wahre Gefahr ist natürlich nicht die Gewalt gegen Frauen, sondern dass sie sich am Ende noch effektiv dagegen wehren.
Had a 45-minute conversation with my 15-year-old son tonight about abortion.
He came in hot with “there should be restrictions.”
So I went hard.
Not to bully him — to build him.
We talked about bias. About whose body we’re actually discussing. About what it means to hold an opinion on something that will never, ever affect your body.
I asked him to look up the stats. Read the actual data. Then come back and finish this sentence:
“I’m a man, and I should have the final say over a woman’s body because…”
He couldn’t finish it.
That’s the point.
He’s 15. He’s allowed to be wrong. What matters is that he’s willing to think — really think — not just echo what he’s heard.
Raising boys who become men who understand bodily autonomy isn’t optional.
It’s the whole job and now I’m tired because he gets these opinions from kids in school. Gawd.
In 1925, a schoolteacher in Germany read Adolf Hitler’s book.
Most people dismissed it.
Anna Essinger didn’t.
She understood that it wasn’t political rhetoric. It was a blueprint.
And if the people writing it ever gained power, the children in her care would never be safe again.
So she prepared.
Anna was a Jewish educator running a small progressive boarding school near Ulm. Her students called her “Tante Anna.” She believed children should be treated with dignity, taught to think freely, and protected fiercely.
When Hitler became Chancellor in 1933, she already had a plan.
On Hitler’s birthday, when schools were ordered to raise the Nazi flag, Anna took all her students on a camping trip. Then she returned alone and raised the swastika over an empty building.
“Atop a vacant building,” she said, “the symbol can neither convey its message nor inflict harm.”
Then she began quietly moving her entire school out of Germany.
Through Quaker contacts in England, she found an old crumbling manor house in Kent called Bunce Court. No money. No proper heating. Barely electricity.
But it was beyond Nazi reach.
She met parents in secret and asked them to do something unimaginable:
Trust her with their children. Possibly forever.
Almost all said yes.
In October 1933, 66 children boarded trains in separate groups across Germany. Parents were told not to cry at the stations. No scenes. No attention.
The children thought they were going on a school trip.
They crossed into Belgium, boarded a ferry, and arrived in England safely.
School resumed the next morning.
Over the years, Bunce Court became far more than a school. It became a refuge for Jewish children escaping Nazi Germany, Kindertransport arrivals carrying single suitcases, and orphaned survivors who had nowhere else left to go.
Students grew vegetables, converted stables into dorms, cooked meals together, and rebuilt broken lives together.
One Holocaust survivor later wrote that Anna Essinger restored his humanity.
By the time the school closed in 1948, she had saved and cared for more than 900 children.
Many of them spent the rest of their lives calling Bunce Court “Shangri-La.”
The only place they had ever truly felt safe.
Anna Essinger never commanded armies.
She never held office.
She never became famous.
She simply read a book carefully in 1925…
believed what it said…
and spent the next twenty years saving children from the future she saw coming.
In December 1938, Adolf Eichmann gave a Dutch housewife what he thought was an impossible challenge:
Remove 600 Jewish children from Austria in 5 days.
He expected her to fail.
Instead, she helped save thousands.
Her name was Geertruida Wijsmuller — known to the children she rescued as “Tante Truus.”
She wasn’t Jewish.
She wasn’t a diplomat.
She had no official power.
What she did have was nerve.
When she arrived in Vienna after Kristallnacht, she walked straight into Eichmann’s office to negotiate for Jewish children to leave Austria.
Eichmann mocked her.
Inspected her hands.
Ordered her to remove her coat and shoes.
When he told her to pull up her skirt and walk around for him, she snapped:
“Enough. Now let’s talk business.”
Then he made his “joke” offer:
600 children.
Five days.
By Saturday.
Truus walked out and immediately got to work.
She organized trains.
Handled paperwork.
Found families willing to let their children leave with a stranger in hopes they might survive.
Within days, 600 children boarded trains out of Vienna.
Many would never see their parents again.
That first rescue became the beginning of something much larger.
Over the next 18 months, Truus organized 49 transports across Europe, negotiating with Nazi officials, bribing border guards, arranging ships and trains, and moving children anywhere safety existed — England, Sweden, the Netherlands, Palestine.
People began saying:
“If something impossible needs to be done, ask Mrs. Wijsmuller.”
The children called her Auntie Truus.
She brought them to dinners, visited orphanages daily, and treated them like family.
Then came May 1940.
As Germany invaded the Netherlands, Truus was at the docks helping the final ship of refugee children escape.
Her own coat and bag were already onboard.
She could have left too.
Instead, at the last moment, she stepped back onto the dock because she didn’t want to abandon her husband.
The children searched for her from the ship as it sailed away.
She stayed behind under Nazi occupation and continued helping people anyway.
After the war, Yad Vashem recognized her as Righteous Among the Nations.
Historians estimate she helped save around 10,000 Jewish children.
The Kindertransport happened, in large part, because one fearless Dutch woman walked into Adolf Eichmann’s office and refused to be intimidated.
„Je älter ich werde, je nüchterner ich den politischen Männlichkeitswahn durchschaue, um so bewußter bemühe ich mich darum, mich davon zu emanzipieren.“

Roald Dahl on Measles: Olivia, my eldest daughter, caught measles when she was seven years old. As the illness took its usual course I can remember reading to her often in bed and not feeling particularly alarmed about it. Then one morning, when she was well on the road to recovery, I was sitting on her bed showing her how to fashion little animals out of coloured pipe-cleaners, and when it came to her turn to make one herself, I noticed that her fingers and her mind were not working together and she couldn’t do anything.
'Are you feeling all right?' I asked her.
'I feel all sleepy,' she said.
In an hour, she was unconscious. In twelve hours she was dead.
The measles had turned into a terrible thing called measles encephalitis and there was nothing the doctors could do to save her. That was...in 1962, but even now, if a child with measles happens to develop the same deadly reaction from measles as Olivia did, there would still be nothing the doctors could do to help her. On the other hand, there is today something that parents can do to make sure that this sort of tragedy does not happen to a child of theirs. They can insist that their child is immunised against measles.
...I dedicated two of my books to Olivia, the first was ‘James and the Giant Peach’. That was when she was still alive. The second was ‘The BFG’, dedicated to her memory after she had died from measles. You will see her name at the beginning of each of these books. And I know how happy she would be if only she could know that her death had helped to save a good deal of illness and death among other children.
Wie in 97% der Fälle, also quasi immer, war auch diesmal das wahllose Töten von vielen Menschen die Tat eines Mannes. Das hat Gründe und die liegen nicht in der Biologie, haben aber mit Männlichkeitskonstruktionen zu tun.
In diesem Sinn:
Das Problem heißt Männlichkeit. #Leipzig
Over 400 women have been arrested since they overturned Roe v Wade— yet not a SINGLE man has been arrested for raping children with Epstein.
It's never been about protecting children... wake up.
