"À la brocante du cœur" pour la VF. J'imagine que ce type de violence policière - purement psychologique ici - peut arriver dans n'importe quel pays, et c'est d'autant plus flippant.

[film] Despicable me 4
May. 15th, 2026 12:19 pmmaluretteTitle: Despicable me 4
By: Illumination
Language: English (+cc)
Type: 3D animation
Genre: action/family
Length: 1h25
Release date:
Where: on Netflix
(actually on Prime it's paywalled, not part of the basic subscription, oops; streamed on my laptop
at the library the very day before it got taken off)
Oh no Gru's family has to go into witness protection because his old academy rival is explicitly coming after all of them! and in their new town someone immediately pierces his secret and blackmails him!
It was fun! I loved Poppy and I wish her all the luck.
However I found really really jarring, even more than in the previous installment, than the girls are not allowed to grow up when passage of time has been made so evident. It costs too much to update models? fan recognition is important? Bah! executives are just lazy, yeah.

Poly ships - Day 9
May. 12th, 2026 12:40 pmflo_neljaFavorite sources with canon poly / Favorite sources for headcanoned poly. Tell us all about that media that makes poly shipping fun!
Only canon poly today!
* Fairy tales and legends: more of them are good for poly that you'd imagine. My fave fairy tales with a canon OTP ending are Gold-tree and Silver-tree and Princess Badoura
* Some webcomics! The first I read was Chester 5000 XYV, an erotic steampunk story where the first part had a love triangle that didn't end up happily, and I was so happy when the second arc ended in a happy OT3!
And then there was Muted, that ends up with the main witch girl escaping her abusive family supported by her two girlsfriends. And Love me to Death, wher a necromancer is hired by a rich man to resurrect his girlfriend, and ends up part of their story when she comes back, but with a soulbond to him.
* Fantasy books! I loved N.K. Jemisin's The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms, where god romances work by triads; only two of them, and there's risk for the balance to be broken. And also Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel's Legacy, when the main girl is a sex worker and has a main love interest but it doesn't stop her from having feelings and sex with quite a few other people.
* TV shows! Everyone already mentioned Sense8, which is perfect for poly, and there was also talk about Our Flag means death, which had very good poly setting in s1 but didn't keep all its promises in s2. But I also want to mention Black Sails, where the poly relationships are as tragic as the not-poly ones but they're diverse and they really work well. When we see Miranda and Flint in the first season, I was like, they're too intimate to be exes, too bitter to be friends with benefits, not intimate enough for lovers, what are they exactly, and when it was revelead they were in a poly relationship with the same guy and avenging him together it was perfect, and there's also Jack/Anne/Max, and the outright fail that is Eleanor/Max and Eleanor/Vain in s1, but romantic and jealousy is never the problem (they have a lot of other problems).

[BD] Les grandes oubliées de l'Histoire
May. 11th, 2026 10:29 pmmaluretteTitre : Les grandes oubliées de l'Histoire Pourquoi l'Histoire a effacé les femmes
Auteures : Titiou Lecoq & Marie Dubois
Langue : français
Type : essai graphique
Genre : vulgarisation historio-sociologique
1ère parution : 2025
Édition : L'iconoclase
Format : 230 page
(offert par ma mère à noël ; adaptation du livre de Lecoq)
Remet en lumière la réalité historique oubliée re: la place des femmes au fil des siècles des millénaires, et explique au passage pourquoi et comment la façon dont on en parle - ou plutôt pas - s'est modifiée.
...En fait c'est cool que ma mère m'offre des bouquins comme ça, mais ça serait p'tet encore plus cool que les mecs de la famille les lisent aussi, non ?
D'un côté j'ai envie d'avoir une belle étagère avec, d'un autre je me dis qu'il faudrait la placer en évidence là où plus de monde pourra piocher dedans...
Why does modern history minimize or even erases women? yes this take is Euro- and French-centric because the authors are French women but surely there are equivalent elsewhere?

Poly ships - Day 8
May. 9th, 2026 09:20 pmflo_neljaWhat are your favorite poly tropes/dynamics? What classic tropes do you like to see with poly ships? Are there any tropes you like seeing subverted or added to in some way with poly ships?
Oooh, good question.
I love competence kink when it's a good combination of already skilled people working even better together, I'm gonna ship this. I have a weakness for when they're nerds in different fields, but they don't have to be.
"A and B both love C so much that they find common ground to help/save C, as friendship or shipping, overcoming jealousy" is really one of my faves.
For angst, I love any "A loves B more, B loves C more and C loves A more but they're trying to make it work" situations.
I love weird supernatural situations. A and B are soulbonded and when A falls for C B doesn't know if their attraction for C is theirs? A and B are sharing a body and a partner? Yeah I'm all for it.
