May Day clean-up in Paris. Hard to see what makes traffic lights a prime example of the capitalism that needs smashing, but maybe that’s just me A tiny minority of idiots responsible for the damage, as usual. The vast, vast majority marched peacefully today

I’ve finally found it! The perfect encapsulation of Paris. — My new neighbourhood has a free sparkling water dispenser. Sparkling! — For some reason, men insist on urinating right next to it. The stench is unimaginable 🤗

Thank you so much @jonhenley for this incredibly nice piece for the @guardian marking five years of @EuropeansPod. When you put it this way, we really have covered a lot of ground. Might we even say... a continent's worth?

Holy shit, I’ve realised what the colour of @semafor is! It’s the colour of a UK cabinet minister’s resignation letter

Things I saw people enjoying for free in Paris today: board game rental, drinking water, legal advice, other people’s chess games, ludicrous autumnal beauty, and the right to protest ✌️ Feeling grateful. Not everything is terrible!
