Word.

Dear Blogger,

We are pleased to inform you that, once again, it is September the first. Unfortunately, that means that for yet another year, you not have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Please find enclosed our commiserations in the form of a signed note reading ‘sorry muggle’, and a picture of Peeves laughing at you.

Term begins today. Too bad you’re not going to be here.

Yours mockingly,

Albus Dumbledore

Pour un chantier solidaire au Maroc

Je ne suis pas très active sur tumblr ces derniers temps mais je poste quand même ça ici : avec l’association où je fais un service civique, nous partons trois semaines en aout au Maroc, à Debdou, pour un chantier solidaire international, pour rénover un lavoir et le rendre plus facile à utiliser pour les habitants, et pour le balisage d’un chemin pédestre racontant l’histoire interculturelle de la ville (Debdou est une ville où les communautés juives et musulmanes ont longtemps cohabité en paix). Nous sommes une dizaine de volontaires de 18 à 25 ans à partir (dont certains jeunes de quartiers populaires n’ayant jamais voyagé) et nous rejoindrons un groupe d’une dizaine de jeunes Marocains. Ce projet nous tiens beaucoup à cœur et nous avons organisé tous ensembles plusieurs actions pour récolter des fonds, dont un “Couscous Solidaire” qui a eu un beau succès. Pour finir de financer l’achat des matériaux nécessaires, et pour pouvoir faire quelques excursions le weekend en emmenant aussi le groupe de jeunes Marocains (à Fez, à la plage...), nous organisons une campagne de crowdfunding sur Ulule. N’hésitez pas à partager, et à participer si vous le pouvez ! Toutes les infos sont ici :

Merci beaucoup :)

history meme: 02/06 women | Simone VEIL

(13 July 1927 - . ) One of four children in a Jewish family from Nice (France), Simon Veil was only 17 years old when she and her family were prisoners of the Nazi’s at Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen; her mother, father, and brother all died in captivity. This tragic experience gave her the courage to accomplish anything that she chooses to do. She returned in France in 1945 and took up study of law and political science to qualify as a judge in 1956. She entered the Ministry of Justice to become involved in a number of humanitarian and women’s issues in 1969. President Giscard d'Estaing launched her political career by making her Minister of Health in 1974. As feminist, and as the first woman full Minister of the Fifth Republic, she pushed forward the two following notable laws: (december 1974) the law opening access to contraception and to information about birth control, and (january 1975) the law legalizing abortion, her hardest political fight and the start of an enduring popularity –and of venomous attacks against her. Mme Veil also undertook to reform or tackle other health issues and the reform of social security. A popular but not populist minister, she noted that there is nothing more boring than an election meeting. She was a campaigner for women’s issues and for the “downtrodden in society” as well as a determined “centrist” moderate. In 1979, she was the first woman elected President of the European Parliament since its creation. In 1998, she was appointed to the Constitutional Council of France. In 2008, Veil became a member of the Académie Française (the forty “Immortels”), the sixth woman ever to do so. On her sword, given to her as to every other immortal, is engraved her Auschwitz number (number 78651), the motto of the French Republic (liberté, égalité, fraternité) and the motto of the European Union (Unis dans la diversité).

Happy Mărţişor everybody! This is probably the oldest tradition of Romania. It’s the celebration of spring and a sign of love. People give each other a Mărţişor (some sort of a talisman). The man gives it to the woman and the woman pins it on her blouse. Because Romanians can be lovely people :-).

Some of us are just Hogwarts divergents, man.

1. Your brain is always fighting between the earnest and the critical.

2. As a result, other people sometimes have a hard time telling when you’re being earnest vs. when you’re being sarcastic or wry.

3. You’re not uber competitive — except for with yourself.

4. You find yourself very attracted to fandom, where dedication and overthinking are both welcomed and encouraged.

5. You spend an inordinate amount of time trying to surround yourself with people who are both fiercely intelligent and steadfastly kindhearted.

6. Blending the highbrow with the lowbrow is your jam — it’s just automatically what your brain does.

7. You’re constantly torn between voicing your opinion and not stepping on anyone else’s toes.

8. And you’re constantly torn between your own stubbornness and your values of open-minded tolerance.

9. You try to use your creativity to benefit others wherever you can.

10.You can’t help but jump in on debates.

11. It frustrates you when people aren’t willing to debate pros and cons.

12. And when people aren’t willing to traverse through the nuances of every situation.

13. But you have a hard time letting go of a debate until people understand.

14. Sometimes this gets the best of you when you act morally superior or like a know-it-all.

15. You have a rock solid work ethic, but only for the things you’re really passionate about. This can become a pain in the ass while in required classes.

16. Finding a career/path you’re genuinely passionate about was of upmost importance to you because you knew how much energy one you weren’t into would drain you.

17. You’re constantly contradicting yourself, your opinions, and rethinking your place in the world.
