Le Figaro have a newly published photograph from inside Notre Dame shortly before the roof collapsed, as molten lead fell into the nave. (+)

This is what I love about photojournalism. It is just a history of moments where human beings have gone “I know I should really be hauling ass out of here but I have to get a picture of this”

I was finally able to source this photo! It’s from Le Figaro Magazine, “The Incredible Story of the Firefighter General of Paris: Our Unpublished Photos,” from November 1st, 2019. Can’t find a specific credit for the photographer, which is too bad, but I have been skeptical it was a real image; up to now I couldn’t find a primary source Googling.

How did I finally find it? By Googling in French, on French Google.

if you love weird media and hate this cursed era of chatGPT genAI enshittification, please consider passing a few dollars to indie literature!

khoreo literally just published a sci-fi wherein a funeral director goes bankrupt cuz people don't die anymore and the world somehow ran out of corpses it was WILD

indie magazines are small, nonprofits led by volunteers and are literally in it for the love of the game, every dollar counts!

i love khoreo!! i had a story in there 2 years ago called Mad Studies, which was later selected for an annual Weird fiction anthology. I love the breadth and rigor of speculative fiction they publish, and can say with confidence that they edit with integrity and compassion.
