this canadian almost won the biggest literary prize in france with a slop book entirely written by claude. the controversy burst just before he could win it, so they disqualified him. too bad. it was hilarious seeing our great literary minds praize his unique talent and comparing him to victor hugo.

just a few reviews>Breathtaking language. It is rare to experience such a reading shock, as if grabbed by the throat by words, simply words. >A harsh and sumptuous debut novel that is already marking the autumn literary season: "C'était ça ou mourir". >"C'était ça ou mourir", Thélyson Orélien's great novel on exile, is already the phenomenon of the autumn literary season. >Using a rich, contrasting language brimming with aphorisms, Thélyson Orélien gives color and vibration to exile. >A true publishing phenomenon, C'était ça ou mourir, one of the biggest hits of recent months in Quebec, has been bought in around twenty countries and will be published by Grasset in France, where it is already generating enthusiasm as a contender for several awards. In short, if you want to be in the loop this year, you must read this novel, which is devoured in one sitting and which, moreover, serves a valuable purpose. >This is without a doubt THE book of the year, and for several reasons: the theme of immigration carried by the story of a man forced to flee a country where he lost everything, the striking writing and voice of its author, and the deeply moving story plunging us into an unfamiliar world—made of fear, injustice, courage, and hope—that gives as much food for thought as it is blood-curdling.

>>543262605True enough
>>543261937Because literary criticism is dead and nobody cares about it at all the entire field has gone from a competition between critics for readership and public influence to a competition between critics for access and corporate influence. so now critics are all social climbers who like the aesthetic of being literary more than they like being literary

AI allows underperforming minorities to increase their capabilities. How will this affect debate around AI? Will AI writing be accepted, and critique of it considered racism?
The greatest gift of AI has been black people using it to scam white leftists.
>>543261750definitely a Carney fanA Canadian asked me to post this because they are scared of Mark Carney gestapo taking away their free speech and banning them from the internethow corrupt is this ? how arrogant is this? to think a white person can speak on behalf of indigenous issues?the vanity of these technocrats to take away your life choicesDiana Fox Carney has been appointed Canada’s first ocean envoy, an unpaid role focused on advancing the country’s work on ocean conservation, climate action, Indigenous leadership, economic resilience and maritime security. She will also chair the 12th Our Ocean Conference, which will be held in Halifax in 2027 and bring together governments, organizations and researchers to address global ocean issues. The conference will highlight areas including sustainable fisheries, ocean science and Indigenous-led stewardship, while supporting Canada’s commitment to protect 30% of its marine and coastal areas by 2030.So instead of an elected politician for this role, he is giving it to his wife. Talk about the arrogance and grab at power. Something is unethical even if its not but perceived of it to be.
