Même sujet, autre point de vue.

« Quand une civilisation n’est plus que cendres et poussières, déclara-t-il, il ne reste plus que l’art. Des images, des mots, de la musique. Des structures imaginatives. C’est ça qui fait sens, pour les hommes, s’entend. »

ATWOOD, Margaret - Le dernier homme

Voici le vieux tracteur à péniches près de la cantine des italiens.

«Aucune route frayée ne sillonait le voisinage, et, pour atteindre notre heureuse retraite, il fallait repousser le feuillage de milliers d’arbres forestiers et anéantir la gloire de milliers de fleurs parfumées.»

Ascenseur N°1 à La Louvière

«Les cendres du monde défunt emportées çà et là dans le vide sur les vents froids et profanes. Emportées au loin et dispersées et emportées encore plus loin. Toute chose coupée de son fondement. Soutenue par un souffle, tremblante et brève. Si seulement mon coeur était de pierre.»
McCARTHY, Cormack - La Route

#HolosDiscover currently blocks #Bluesky accounts bridged via #BridgyFed, because AT Protocol has no equivalent to the indexable flag.
The bridge is opt-in, but bridged users cannot signal refusal of third-party indexing.
Standard opt-out mechanisms remain functional: block @HolosDiscover, #nobot or #noindex in bio, mention with "unfollow".

What's your opinion?
