« ces confrères et consœurs portaient un casque et un gilet pare-balles floqué du sigle « #Press », les identifiant clairement comme des professionnels des #médias.

Les bombardements sur la bande de #Gaza ont tué près de 200 #journalistes palestiniens en dix-huit mois. Dans l’histoire de la profession, c’est une hécatombe d’une magnitude jamais vue.

L’armée israélienne cherche à imposer un black-out médiatique, à réduire au #silence, autant que possible, les témoins des #crimes de #guerre commis par ses troupes. »

The Joy of Silence: How my life changed when I recently moved to a quieter place is the subject of my new story at @medium.

My life bears out a lot of the research in psychology: You really do sleep better and have an easier time telling "the signal" from "the noise":

Coucou gens du fediverse.
Quelqu'un•e pour me conseiller de bons bouchons d'oreilles ?
J'en utilise en mousse, jetables, pour dormir, car la voisine de lit émet une large gamme de sons fort intéressants dont l'étude me garde éveillé et attentif ce qui n'est pas toujours idéal.
Je me dis qu'il doit exister des solutions à la fois plus économiques et plus écologiques, peut-être même plus confortables que les bouchons oranges de Casto ou les trucs en mousse hors de prix qu'on trouve en pharmacie.
Voilà.
Le repouet garantit un sommeil profond et réparateur !
Merci !

A psychopathic president.

‘Longwell estimated that Trump might be trying to get people to look in a different direction after he backed down on his trade war.
"…like a guy with a laser pointer and the media is a bunch of cats. Is he trying to get people to chase things so they stop talking about the fact that he caved and did a total about-face on the tariffs after telling us for days that he wasn't going to do a pause? And now he's suddenly pausing because the world economy is collapsing. Is he doing this as a distraction?"
She then noted that targeting people like this can scare others away from leaking information to the public.
"And what he's trying to do here, though, is to make people afraid of speaking out against him.

‘Trump is trying to intimidate his staff from speaking out during this administration, she continued

…I mean, this is some of the most insane authoritarian stuff we've seen out of him."

"In the sweet territory of silence we touch the mystery. It's the place of reflection and contemplation, and it's the place where we can connect with the deep knowing, to the deep wisdom way."
— Angeles Arrien quoted in The Millionth Circle by Jean Shinoda Bolen
