This is dope, but that said, the Eiffel Tower projection text has the worst kerning I’ve ever seen.

The French like bad kerning.
What’s keming?
Edit: nvm I’m an idiot, I just got the joke.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerning
In typography, kerning is the process of adjusting the spacing between characters in a proportional font, usually to achieve a visually pleasing result. Kerning adjusts the space between individual letterforms while tracking (letter-spacing) adjusts spacing uniformly over a range of characters.

I believe they call it coloning.
And hopefully not the last
Actually, the way it’s formulated is fairly negative.
It’s written “the law determines the condition on which the guaranteed freedom to abortion is applied” (sorry for the unprecise translation, it’s written in law language, so hard to really translate).
Which basically means three things.
It’s considered a “freedom”, not a “right”. While it’s been said that freedom and right means the same, it could very well not be the case in the future. And a freedom can be restricted, while a right is guaranteed.
“the law determines the condition” means that it can be restricted as wanted by the parliament, so it exists, but could be extremely restricted in the future.
Finally “women” is not neutral as a term, and voluntarily excludes trans people wanting to perform an abortion.
Not a lawyer, so my explanation is probably not that great, but yeah… It’s really not as great as it’s said to be.
Here’s a source for what I explained (in French) : https://lesaf.org/constitutionnalisation-de-livg-un-leurre-grossier/
In direct response to Roe.
The New York times article gives a little extra detail.
up to 14 weeks into their pregnancies, according to the French justice minister, Éric Dupond-Moretti.
That’s pretty much only the first trimester (12 weeks, so two weeks into the second). Why rejoice to this, when in the US, any limit on it is decried as the most horrible thing ever?
That’s for a normal uneventful pregnancy. If past these 12 weeks, it is still possible to have an abortion is the pregnancy threatens the mother’s life or if it is later found the baby would suffer from a decease that at that stage the science can’t cure.
And to answer, we rightfully rejoice. We shouldn’t have to carry a child we don’t want nor raise it. And if we do, we should be able to drop them at the ass’s front door who made us go through it by thinking we are mere incubators. If some of your people are sick enough to want to forbid abortion, let them personally raise those children and take the financial burden. And I write this as a woman and mum living in France. It’s time you take the figurative guillotine out of the shed and have them shit their pants.
Rather celebrate the small wins than constantly decry the shortfalls.
