A page in english explaining the french expression "cucul la praline"
"So, in France we have this expression when something is a bit silly and very (too much) sweet, we say it's Cucul la Praline. Example of cucul la praline: some rom-com like "Love, Actually" or feelgood movies like "Amelie" (Image of Amelie saying "Let's go to Montmartre and have a chocolate, I'll tell everyone they are special"
Cucul comes from "cul", that means "ass". We don't relly know why it means silly/sweet. But there are other examples of doubling the word to make it cuter. Like "con" (stupid) becomes "con-con" (a bit stupid but well-meaning" - La praline is an almond covered in sugar, an old recipe created in the XVIII century for the Marechal de Plessis Pralin (Image of the marechal saying "mmh very delicious mon ami")
We don't really know why cucul and la praline ended up together. Probably because it sounded funny and insisted on the "sweet" side. There are (less-known) versions with "cucul la fraise" (ass-ass-the strawberry) or -weirder- "cucul la rainette" (ass-ass-the-frog)
There is no exact translation in English, but my friend proposed "Butt-butt-nutty", so if you are a journalist or a writer or else, please use it. I would love it to become a real expression.

Some people pretend it could also come from a coconut from praslin in the Seychelles, but there is no explanation on why it would mean "silly" (it's called coco-fesse (coco-butt) because of its shape)

For the last few weeks my iPhone has been consistently suggesting memories of my ex-wife in the widget.

Today it finally got the hint and suggested a more modern memory!

There should be a way for us tell iOS “look, this person was important in my life but not anymore, don’t bring them up”.

Não sei se é autorizado, mas o @mkbhd-mirror.bsky.social é exatamente o que você está propondo, um bot que repete aqui os postos do usuário original lá do outro lado.

@boscardin.bsky.social, isso deve lhe interessar. Organizações religiosas americanas querem poder falar de política sem perder a isenção de impostos, como é no Brasil e como você já destacou as consequências de ser assim.

Le Joli Coco
Le Joli Coco Voici l'adaptation hollywoodienne du plus grand récit de tous les temps, d'après le best-seller international de Capucine et Boulet.

Il n'a malheureusement pas été sélectionné à Annecy 😔. Trop pur ? Trop en avance sur son temps ?
La bonne nouvelle, c'est qu'il s'en branle de la reconnaissance et des honneurs.
C'est le plus beau.

La couverture des "Sept Boules de Cristal" de Tintin, mais avec Sangoku qui envoie une boule de feu.

Celui-ci me fait toujours rire.

Nièce: c'est comment, Angoulême, tu y fais quoi ?
Moi: *Explique les dédicaces, les expos, etc...*
Nièce: Ah, c'est comme la Japan Expo mais avec des BD ?
