Ce moment pr&#233;cis o&#249; vos &#233;paules descendent de trois centim&#232;tres, o&#249; vous respirez par le ventre et o&#249; vous vous dites : <em>&#171; C&#8217;est bon. Je l&#226;che tout. Je suis en vacances. &#187;</em></p><p>C&#8217;est une sensation merveilleuse, presque enivrante. Une vraie drogue douce. Mais je viens d&#8217;apprendre &#224; mes d&#233;pens que le l&#226;cher-prise a un effet secondaire totalement sous-estim&#233; : il anesth&#233;sie instantan&#233;ment notre radar &#224; conneries. Le cerveau passe en mode vacances, le niveau de tol&#233;rance monte &#224; 800 %, et soudain, on devient capable de valider des comportements qu&#8217;on aurait balay&#233;s en quatre secondes chrono autour d&#8217;un matcha latte &#224; Paris.</p><p>En gros, je suis partie &#224; l&#8217;aventure au Sri Lanka avec un gar&#231;on qui, sur le papier, fr&#244;lait l&#8217;insolence de la perfection. Beau comme un dieu, doux, intelligent, poli, le genre de mec qui vous tient la porte et demande si vous n&#8217;avez pas trop chaud. La fiche produit r&#234;v&#233;e.

Ne pas avoir son jus de mangue frais &#224; l&#8217;instant T devenait une crise d&#8217;&#201;tat, alors que le mec assistait impassible &#224; mon propre dess&#232;chement.</p><p><span data-color="#0000ff" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255);">Et puis, il y a eu le climax de ce s&#233;jour. Le sommet de l&#8217;ironie.</span></p><p>Moi qui ai une peur panique, visc&#233;rale et incontr&#244;lable des reptiles du genre &#224; sauter sur une chaise pour une orvet de dix centim&#232;tres, devinez sur quoi je suis tomb&#233;e un matin dans la salle de bain ? Un serpent. Raide mort sur le carrelage de la douche. Ma pire phobie, en chair et en &#233;cailles.</p><p>Eh bien, croyez-le ou non, cette vision d&#8217;horreur m&#8217;a presque paru <em>mimi</em> &#224; c&#244;t&#233; du ph&#233;nom&#232;ne qui partageait ma chambre. Ce pauvre serpent, au moins, avait la d&#233;cence d&#8217;&#234;tre silencieux, ne me faisait pas de chantage affectif, ne bouffait pas l&#8217;air ambiant et ne me rendait pas responsable de la mousson. Il g&#238;tait l&#224;, parfaitement inoffensif, &#224; des ann&#233;es-lumi&#232;re de la toxicit&#233; feutr&#233;e de mon compagnon de route.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

Celle-ci comprise, tant qu&#8217;&#224; &#234;tre honn&#234;te : une cha&#238;ne arrach&#233;e et un short qui colle en accroche d&#8217;article, c&#8217;est le m&#234;me produit, avec plus de subordonn&#233;es et moins d&#8217;&#233;mojis, mais un mod&#232;le &#233;conomique identique.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img"

nos traumas et s&#8217;est dit &#171; il y a un march&#233; &#187;, quelque part entre deux r&#233;unions sur l&#8217;engagement. J&#8217;ai moi-m&#234;me calcul&#233;, en &#233;crivant ce texte, si la sc&#232;ne du banc &#171; fonctionnait &#187; mieux en ouverture, si le short mouill&#233; de sueur &#233;tait assez sensoriel pour qu&#8217;on le screenshote. On a demand&#233; aux femmes d&#8217;&#234;tre fortes en silence pendant des g&#233;n&#233;rations ; le nouveau deal leur demande d&#8217;&#234;tre fortes &#224; voix haute, montage serr&#233;, doses de vuln&#233;rabilit&#233; calibr&#233;es comme un algorithme TikTok mais jamais trop, jamais trop peu.</p><p><strong>Le trauma, aujourd&#8217;hui, c&#8217;est un product-market fit, et je suis mon propre actionnaire majoritaire.</strong></p><h2>5. Le revers du short</h2><p>Revenons au short, star malgr&#233; lui de cet &#233;t&#233;. On m&#8217;a enseign&#233;, enfant, avec l&#8217;autorit&#233; d&#8217;une r&#232;gle de grammaire, le point pr&#233;cis au-dessus du genou o&#249; un v&#234;tement devient une d&#233;claration que je n&#8217;ai jamais r&#233;dig&#233;e. Trop court pour la rue, trop suggestif pour le bus, jamais un mot en revanche sur o&#249; s&#8217;arr&#234;te le culot d&#8217;un inconnu qui s&#8217;invite sur mon banc sans y avoir &#233;t&#233; convi&#233; ( lui, aucun dress code, aucune charte, aucune mod&#233;ration hein).</p><p>Ironie compl&#232;te : ce m&#234;me short, jug&#233; trop court dans certains contextes, devient &#224; ses yeux un uniforme professionnel. Trop habill&#233;e pour une chose, pas assez pour une autre, et dans les deux cas c&#8217;est le v&#234;tement qu&#8217;on interroge, jamais le mec en bermuda tach&#233; qui n&#8217;a jamais eu &#224; justifier sa tenue devant qui que ce soit. </p><p>Sur ce banc, je me trouvais plut&#244;t un air de gamine de onze ans en colonie de vacances genre pas maquill&#233;e, jambes crois&#233;es, nez dans un livre, l'allure g&#233;n&#233;rale d'une fille qui attend que sa m&#232;re revienne des toilettes. Visiblement, l'&#233;cart entre ce que je pensais projeter et ce qu'il a d&#233;cid&#233; de lire &#233;tait vertigineux. </p><p><strong>On m&#8217;a expliqu&#233; o&#249; s&#8217;arr&#234;tait ma jupe, jamais o&#249; commen&#231;ait son culot.</strong></p><h2>6.

Et puis l&#8217;autre porc, celui qu&#8217;on conna&#238;t toutes depuis <em>Balance ton porc</em>, celui qui n&#8217;a ni museau ni ferme mais un banc, une phrase toute faite, et une conviction

mes amies de toujours. Ces amies que je tra&#238;ne par la patte droite depuis quinze piges, comme un doudou us&#233; dont la moiti&#233; du rembourrage s&#8217;est &#233;vapor&#233;e dans les ann&#233;es 2010. Si je devais dresser leur portrait aujourd&#8217;hui avec un regard neuf, je leur peindrais un tableau tellement diff&#233;rent qu&#8217;elles ne s&#8217;y reconna&#238;traient sans doute pas. Et moi non plus.</p><p>Sur le papier, soyons clairs : je suis journaliste. Pour les intimes, je suis plut&#244;t un &#233;lectron libre (comprenez : une trentenaire qui passe beaucoup de temps &#224; procrastiner avec &#233;l&#233;gance). J&#8217;aime le calme absolu, la solitude feutr&#233;e des livres et les conversations profondes qui s&#8217;&#233;ternisent jusqu&#8217;&#224; ce que les bougies menacent de mettre le feu au parquet. En contrepartie, je l&#232;ve mon verre de champagne absolument trois &#224; quatre fois dans l&#8217;ann&#233;e si tant est qu&#8217;il y ait un mariage, un bapt&#234;me ou une inauguration suffisamment chic pour le justifier.</p><p>Nous n&#8217;irions pas en bo&#238;te de nuit ensemble. Nous ne fumerions pas des paquets de clopes entiers en bas de l&#8217;escalier jusqu&#8217;&#224; minuit en refaisant le monde avec une verve de militante. Et nous ne pourrions m&#234;me pas parler manucure. Enfin, si : &#224; la rigueur aujourd&#8217;hui, on pourrait planquer une mention discr&#232;te &#224; <em>Manucurist</em> au d&#233;tour d&#8217;une conversation d&#233;cal&#233;e fa&#231;on <em>girly 90s</em>, et encore, avec une pointe de second degr&#233; mesur&#233;.</p><p><strong>Alors la question me br&#251;le les l&#232;vres : suis-je bien devenue officiellement chiante

J&#8217;adore &#231;a. Et surtout, j&#8217;adore penser que je connais d&#233;j&#224; les r&#233;ponses. Je suis un pantin social extr&#234;mement perfectionn&#233;, une cr&#233;ature ultra-adaptable qui se moule sans faille &#224; son interlocuteur. Pourquoi ? Parce que tant qu&#8217;il y a de la vie, un sourire poliment accroch&#233;, alors je peux respirer. Et s&#8217;il fallait tout le temps se dire bonjour, se s&#233;duire &#224; nouveau, m&#234;me apr&#232;s trente-sept ans de mariage ou vingt ans de compagnonnage amical, alors je songerai peut-&#234;tre &#224; signer le papier.</p><p>Mon vrai hic, voyez-vous, c&#8217;est que je bloque. Je bloque violemment au temps des souvenirs. Je me retrouve coinc&#233;e dans la nostalgie des id&#233;es qui nous ont tant li&#233;es pendant une &#233;poque donn&#233;e, assi&#233;g&#233;e par toutes ces &#233;motions pass&#233;es que je ne peux plus saluer aujourd&#8217;hui avec le m&#234;me &#233;lan, mais que j&#8217;aimerais tant pouvoir revivre en boucle. Je bloque aussi sur cette peur panique de raconter un &#233;chec r&#233;cent et de ne pas savoir bien le justifier. De ne pas r&#233;ussir &#224; le ranger soigneusement dans la bonne case &#224; oubli avec ses voisins de palier et ses coll&#232;gues d&#8217;infortune.</p><p>J&#8217;aime pas d&#233;voiler mon c&#339;ur. &#171; D&#233;voiler son c&#339;ur &#187;, c&#8217;est un mot beaucoup trop fort, trop lourd, presque ind&#233;cent. Et je crois profond&#233;ment qu&#8217;il n&#8217;y a rien de plus intime ( et donc de plus terrifiant) que de se mettre &#224; nu face &#224; quelqu&#8217;un. Parce qu&#8217;une fois qu&#8217;on s&#8217;est &#233;tal&#233;, une fois qu&#8217;on a d&#233;pos&#233; sa vuln&#233;rabilit&#233; sur la table basse entre le houmous et le vin blanc, une question logistique s&#8217;impose : <em>qui prend en charge la dette derri&#232;re ?</em> Qui assure &#234;tre en possession de la touche ON du temps pour stopper le marasme ?</p><p>C&#8217;est cyclique, cette vie. Bouclique, m&#234;me. Je retrouve des amies parfois &#224; travers le filtre d&#8217;une p&#233;riode bien particuli&#232;re. Des fois je les vois le dimanche sous une lumi&#232;re crue, et des fois je les revois le vendredi soir dans la fureur du week-end qui d&#233;bute : l&#8217;&#233;nergie n&#8217;est jamais vraiment la m&#234;me. Je les aime le dimanche, et je les aime aussi le vendredi. Mais soyons honn&#234;tes : des fois je les pr&#233;f&#232;re nettement le mardi soir, et des fois... je n&#8217;ai tout simplement pas du tout envie de les voir.</p><blockquote><p><em>&#171; Quand tu commences &#224; avoir des amis de longue date, ils deviennent ton miroir ambulant. Tu y revois tes &#233;checs pass&#233;s. Tu entends en &#233;cho cette fois o&#249; tu leur as jur&#233; : &#8220;Non mais l&#224; c&#8217;est diff&#233;rent parce que j&#8217;y crois vraiment&#8221;, et tu n&#8217;as plus aucune possibilit&#233; de t&#8217;auto-convaincre. Tu sais. Et ils savent. &#187;</em></p></blockquote><h2>&#201;loge des cons enthousiastes et magie de la page blanche</h2><p>Alors, quand vous avez la chance de pouvoir &#233;clabousser une &#233;ni&#232;me id&#233;e saugrenue &#8212;(une id&#233;e que vous ne tiendrez &#233;videmment jamais) aupr&#232;s de quelqu&#8217;un de totalement nouveau qui vous regarde avec des yeux &#233;carquill&#233;s en vous disant : <em>&#171; Waouh, mais c&#8217;est g&#233;nial, fonce ! &#187;</em>... Moi, j&#8217;adore ces gens.

Sont-ils faux ? Sont-ils des hypocrites mondains ? Ou sont-ils simplement d&#233;sinhib&#233;s de tout brouillard affectif susceptible de griser leur &#233;tat d&#8217;esprit ? Voyez-vous, j&#8217;ai quand m&#234;me &#224; c&#339;ur d&#8217;analyser la faune qui m&#8217;entoure : j&#8217;aimerais savoir s&#8217;ils sont juste polis, profond&#233;ment cons, ou alors totalement honn&#234;tes et spontan&#233;s. Et la v&#233;rit&#233;, c&#8217;est que j&#8217;aimerais bien faire confiance &#224; ces &#171; cons &#187; un peu plus souvent. Je crois sinc&#232;rement que &#231;a aide &#224; s&#8217;&#233;lever plus haut, sans le fil &#224; la patte du pass&#233;.</p><p>Lors d&#8217;un r&#233;cent voyage, j&#8217;ai eu ce sentiment fugace mais &#233;clatant d&#8217;&#234;tre la meilleure version de moi-m&#234;me. Pourquoi ? Parce que ces gens &#233;taient nouveaux. Ils me prenaient &#224; l&#8217;instant T, avec ma bouille du jour, mon sac &#224; dos et mes certitudes bancales, sans jamais regarder en arri&#232;re. Je n&#8217;&#233;tais pas un <em>cold case</em> &#224; r&#233;soudre pour eux ni le dossier m&#233;dical de mes erreurs de jeunesse. J&#8217;&#233;tais juste une nouveaut&#233;, un &#233;lan, une dynamique.</p><p>Alors de ce fait, la question m&#233;rite d&#8217;&#234;tre pos&#233;e : devrions-nous apprendre &#224; nous re-conna&#238;tre chaque dimanche ? Sans pass&#233;, sans casseroles, sans archives &#224; justifier ? Je vous laisse m&#233;diter l&#224;-dessus pendant que je vais commander mon cinqui&#232;me verre d&#8217;eau plate.</p><p> Et si on se croisait la semaine prochaine, promis, faites comme si vous ne me connaissiez pas.</p><p><em><strong>Vous avez aim&#233; ce billet ?</strong> N&#8217;h&#233;sitez pas &#224; laisser un commentaire, &#224; le partager &#224; cette amie que vous tra&#238;nez par la patte droite depuis 2009, ou &#224; vous abonner pour recevoir ma prochaine crise existentielle directement dans votre bo&#238;te mail.</em></p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Etre soi-même ?

Le luxe, c&#8217;est un sandwich triangle &#224; Cassis</h3><p>Puis-je dire que j&#8217;ai baign&#233; dans le luxe quand j&#8217;ai pris un caf&#233; aux Roches Blanches &#224; Cassis, apr&#232;s avoir mang&#233; un sandwich triangle dans la Clio gar&#233;e &#224; la plage ? Suis-je vraiment dans le luxe quand je pars 4 jours &#224; Mykonos tout frais pay&#233;, et que j&#8217;ai le malheur de r&#226;ler parce que j&#8217;ai trop chaud &#129397; ? Je crois pas non. Derri&#232;re le luxe y&#8217;a le para&#238;tre, et c&#8217;est un exercice tellement plus facile qu&#8217;il en a l&#8217;air.</p><p>Moi j&#8217;ai &#233;t&#233; autant parisienne &#224; 900 euros sur mon comte qu&#8217;&#224; un salaire d&#233;cent (on sait, vous savez.). La Parisienne est jamais parisienne mais qu&#8217;est-ce qu&#8217;elle prend cher. Sous ses airs de Dora l&#8217;exploratrice du nouveau march&#233; tendance foulard dans les cheveux, elle a trouv&#233; que le matcha &#233;tait bon en go&#251;t, mais maintenant elle s&#8217;en fout carr&#233;ment sur la peau, en guise d&#8217;argile sous les pieds, tout &#231;a.</p><h3>3.

absolument insoup&#231;onn&#233;s. Aujourd&#8217;hui, je suis devenue cette meuf radicale et &#233;puisante, totalement incapable de se pointer chez quelqu&#8217;un sans lui offrir un triptyque infernal compos&#233; de fleurs de saison, de chocolats fins et de la petite carte ultra-cibl&#233;e qu&#8217;elle avait rep&#233;r&#233;e trois semaines plus t&#244;t dans une boutique de papeterie branch&#233;e.</p><p> Parfois, par pur exc&#232;s de z&#232;le, je prends carr&#233;ment le temps d&#8217;imprimer une petite photo souvenir avec un merci &#233;crit au feutre derri&#232;re.</p><p></p><p>Est-ce que c&#8217;est mignon ? Est-ce que c&#8217;est une preuve d&#8217;affection absolue ? Absolument pas. Ne nous mentons pas, c&#8217;est le syndrome de la bonne &#233;l&#232;ve sous st&#233;ro&#239;des. C&#8217;est une tentative d&#233;sesp&#233;r&#233;e de contr&#244;ler mon image, de packager mon affection pour qu&#8217;elle soit socialement irr&#233;prochable et valid&#233;e par le public. Je me sens tellement responsable du succ&#232;s de la moindre interaction humaine, tellement prise au pi&#232;ge de mes propres standards, que si je n&#8217;ai pas le temps de &#8220;pr&#233;parer&#8221; mon rendez-vous comme un lancement de produit ou un d&#233;fil&#233; de la Fashion Week, alors je pr&#233;f&#232;re tout simplement le d&#233;cliner. Qu&#8217;il soit amical, amoureux ou professionnel, l&#8217;annulation devient ma soupape de s&#233;curit&#233;.</p><p> L&#8217;impr&#233;vu ? Je ne sais m&#234;me pas ce que c&#8217;est, ce mot a &#233;t&#233; ray&#233; de mon dictionnaire personnel. Et pour confirmer ma direction artistique intime, pour l&#8217;ajouter &#224; mon panier de vie comme un vulgaire article de mode avant un paiement en trois fois sans frais, je commence syst&#233;matiquement par ne jamais d&#233;crocher le t&#233;l&#233;phone. Le moindre appel est une agression caract&#233;ris&#233;e qui menace mon &#233;chafaudage mental. </p><p>S&#8217;&#233;puiser &#224; se polir pour se vendre aux autres est devenu un travail &#224; temps plein qui me laisse totalement vid&#233;e. C&#8217;est un fait, et je commence &#224; peine &#224; l&#8217;admettre.</p><h2>Alerte enl&#232;vement temporelle : pourquoi Sophie attendra 18 heures</h2><p>Cette surcharge mentale se niche dans les d&#233;tails les plus absurdes de mon emploi du temps et dicte ma mani&#232;re de respirer. En ce moment, je vois passer partout sur les r&#233;seaux sociaux et dans la litt&#233;rature psy des articles sur la fameuse paralysie li&#233;e au TDAH. Des gens y expliquent avec beaucoup de s&#233;rieux ne pouvoir absolument rien faire de leur journ&#233;e avant un rendez-vous, restant totalement t&#233;tanis&#233;s &#224; attendre l&#8217;heure fatidique, incapables de lancer une machine ou de lire un livre. Eh bien, r&#233;v&#233;lons les termes et posons le diagnostic de comptoir : je suis exactement pareille. </p><p>Ne me demandez pas d&#8217;aller chercher du Spedifen &#224; la pharmacie &#224; 11h du matin si j&#8217;ai un verre de pr&#233;vu avec Sophie &#224; 18h sur une terrasse parisienne. Pour mon cerveau hyper-focalis&#233;, la journ&#233;e est d&#233;j&#224; pleine, enti&#232;rement book&#233;e par l&#8217;angoisse de la ponctualit&#233; et la pr&#233;paration invisible de cette rencontre. Je reste l&#224;, fig&#233;e dans mon salon, &#224; me limer les ongles en regardant les aiguilles tourner.</p><p>Depuis quand cette notion du temps est-elle aussi erron&#233;e chez moi ? C&#8217;est une &#233;nigme que m&#234;me ma m&#232;re a abandonn&#233; de r&#233;soudre, elle qui aime tant me rappeler qu&#8217;en fin d&#8217;ann&#233;e scolaire de CM2, j&#8217;exigeais d&#233;j&#224; de conna&#238;tre l&#8217;heure exacte du bus &#224; prendre pour la rentr&#233;e de septembre. Je n&#8217;ai jamais su &#234;tre en retard. C&#8217;est une seconde nature, une politesse maladive.</p><p> Sauf... quand je m&#8217;en tape royalement. C&#8217;est-&#224;-dire quand je baisse enfin ma garde, quand je fatigue et que le naturel revient au galop. Et devinez quoi ? Ce sont toujours les plus proches qui trinquent. Mes amis intimes, ma famille, mon premier cercle. Eux, ils n&#8217;ont pas fait le retour produit dans les trois mois suivant l&#8217;achat, ils n&#8217;ont pas de garantie l&#233;gale de conformit&#233;, alors ils se d&#233;merdent avec mon service apr&#232;s-vente d&#233;fectueux, mes petits retards et mes bugs de communication. Hihi.</p><p>&#192; l&#8217;inverse, je regarde avec une fascination m&#234;l&#233;e d&#8217;effroi ces gens tout autant stress&#233;s que moi, tout autant relous au quotidien (oui oui, soyons lucides), mais qui poss&#232;dent ce super-pouvoir incroyable d&#8217;arriver avec des heures enti&#232;res de retard, la bouche en c&#339;ur et la fleur au fusil. </p><p>Ils ont sinc&#232;rement l&#8217;impression d&#8217;&#234;tre dans le bon timing, ils pensent qu&#8217;ils ont le temps, ils se pr&#233;parent au dernier moment, tranquillement et sereinement, chez eux, &#224; base de tequila et de musique &#224; fond. Et est-ce qu&#8217;on s&#8217;excuse en arrivant ? Surtout pas, ce serait g&#226;cher la f&#234;te. Ils glissent sur la vie l&#224; o&#249; je m&#8217;&#233;corche sur les angles. </p><p>Au fond, c&#8217;est une question de cases. On passe notre temps &#224; cat&#233;goriser les gens, &#224; s&#233;parer les c&#233;libataires et les couples, les n&#233;vros&#233;s et les normaux, les ponctuels et les retardataires. Pourtant, nous avons normalement tous le m&#234;me droit &#224; la parole, &#224; la s&#233;curit&#233; et &#224; la tendresse. </p><p>Ces cases n&#8217;ont jamais exist&#233; sur aucun tableau clinique s&#233;rieux. On n&#8217;a jamais vu un m&#233;decin l&#233;giste &#233;crire sur un certificat de d&#233;c&#232;s : &#171; Il est mort de c&#233;libat &#187; ou &#171; Elle a succomb&#233; &#224; un manque de structure &#187;. Non, cela n&#8217;existe pas. Au m&#234;me titre que je ne suis pas morte &#224; attendre mon rendez-vous de six &#224; sept avec Sophie en usant ma lime &#224; ongles sur mon canap&#233;.</p><h2>Inception psycho et moustiques

soigner &#224; tout prix. En attendant d&#8217;avoir le fin mot de l&#8217;histoire, premier progr&#232;s remarquable de ma trentaine : je ne m&#8217;excuse plus d&#8217;&#234;tre moi.</p><p> Je refuse de m&#8217;excuser d&#8217;aimer trop, d&#8217;en faire trop, ou de verbaliser des besoins qui, quels qu&#8217;ils soient, ont l&#8217;air d&#8217;&#234;tre de trop pour la normalit&#233; ambiante. &#202;tre dans ma t&#234;te est un joli bordel, je l&#8217;accorde volontiers au reste du monde, mais c&#8217;est un bordel hautement organis&#233;, fa&#231;on tableau de d&#233;co Pinterest o&#249; chaque anomalie a sa place attitr&#233;e. Parfois, c&#8217;est le souk du Caire, un vacarme sans nom, mais il y a trois choses fondamentales que je ne perds jamais au milieu de la temp&#234;te.</p><p>D&#8217;abord, ces grands r&#234;ves fous. Ces objectifs massifs fix&#233;s sans aucun calendrier, grav&#233;s dans un coin de ma t&#234;te, qui changent tous les trois jours au gr&#233; des saisons, de mes rencontres et de mon app&#233;tit pour l&#8217;existence. Ensuite, le contr&#244;le. Pour moi, il est n&#233;cessaire, profond&#233;ment s&#233;curisant, et contrairement &#224; ce que disent les manuels de d&#233;veloppement personnel &#224; deux balles, il n&#8217;est pas du tout antinomique avec le vrai l&#226;cher-prise. </p><p>Et enfin, mon stress. Le stress de tout, tout le temps. La peur visc&#233;rale d&#8217;&#234;tre anxieuse. C&#8217;est une pr&#233;sence H24, et m&#234;me quand je dors, je stresse au second degr&#233; dans mes propres r&#234;ves, fa&#231;on <em>Inception</em>. Et vous voulez que je vous dise ? J&#8217;adore &#231;a. Il me court-circuite le cerveau mais il me permet de me sentir intens&#233;ment en vie, vibrante, connect&#233;e &#224; mes sens. </p><p>Si tout est bien s&#251;r une question d&#8217;&#233;quilibre et de juste mesure un peu comme le beurre dans la p&#226;te &#224; cookie, je n'ai pas envie d'aller creuser mes failles &#224; coup de concepts internet &#224; la mode, m&#234;me si j'adore ma psy (et qu'elle m'adore, soyons honn&#234;tes, je suis son meilleur dossier). </p><p>Apr&#232;s lui avoir d&#233;ball&#233; tout ce cirque mental lors de notre derni&#232;re s&#233;ance, elle a pos&#233; ses lunettes avec un sourire ultra-bienveillant pour me l&#226;cher un verdict sans appel : &#8220; Hmm&#8221;.</p><p>Le rejet social implique de la douleur, une fissure qui reste grav&#233;e &#224; vie dans le c&#339;ur. C&#8217;est comme &#231;a, c&#8217;est notre condition humaine et il faut faire avec.</p><p>Cest quoi, au fond, la blessure du rejet ? C&#8217;est quoi le TDAH ? &#202;tre fou dans un monde normal ou &#234;tre normal dans un monde compl&#232;tement fou ? Les &#233;tiquettes m&#8217;ennuient. </p><p>Au moment o&#249; je vous &#233;cris, je suis cens&#233;e faire une sieste salvatrice pour rattraper ma nuit de merde. Une nuit enti&#232;re pass&#233;e les yeux grands ouverts &#224; me demander si les moustiques avaient un p&#232;re et une m&#232;re, s&#8217;ils se faisaient des c&#226;lins en famille, et s&#8217;il y avait un moyen scientifique d&#8217;arr&#234;ter d&#233;finitivement cette reproduction de l&#8217;enfer qui flingue mes &#233;t&#233;s. </p><p>Bon alors, regardez-moi bien d&#233;barquer dans un <em>run club</em> branch&#233; du 11e arrondissement.

Les deux discours cohabitent tr&#232;s bien dans le m&#234;me magazine, parfois &#224; trois pages d&#8217;&#233;cart.</p><p>Alors on liste nos titres de gloire comme des arguments de vente : propri&#233;taire, en location depuis quinze ans dans le m&#234;me appartement, chat, carte bleue qui passe partout.

Il construit un r&#244;le de type adorable, bloc apr&#232;s bloc, devant vos amis. Il construit un d&#233;cor de couple id&#233;al, bloc apr&#232;s bloc, sur les photos o&#249; vous souriez un peu trop fort. </p><p>Et le jour o&#249; une pi&#232;ce ne rentre pas dans son plan, il ne change pas le plan, il vous tape avec.</p><p>C&#8217;est un enfant, oui, mais avec un compte en banque, une voiture, et parfois m&#234;me un tr&#232;s bon costume. Un corps d&#8217;adulte, une t&#234;te de gamin qui hurle parce qu&#8217;on a boug&#233; sa tour.</p><p>La th&#233;orie, maintenant, pour les int&#233;ress&#233;es : le narcissisme, c&#8217;est le surinvestissement dans l&#8217;image de soi, jusqu&#8217;&#224; ce que l&#8217;image finisse par manger compl&#232;tement la personne derri&#232;re, comme un filtre Instagram qui a fini par remplacer le visage. </p><p>Le trait psychopathique, c&#8217;est cette froideur &#233;motionnelle tr&#232;s sp&#233;cifique (une empathie cognitive intacte, il sait exactement o&#249; &#231;a fait mal, au millim&#232;tre) sans la moindre empathie affective, il s&#8217;en fiche total, il regarde ailleurs pendant que &#231;a saigne. </p><p>Le machiav&#233;lisme, enfin, c&#8217;est le calcul pos&#233; comme une partie d&#8217;&#233;checs o&#249; vous &#234;tes le pion, lui l&#8217;unique joueur, et l&#8217;arbitre est parti en pause cigarette depuis trois ans.</p><p><strong>Ce n&#8217;est pas un homme compliqu&#233;.

Parce que le milieu parisien te fait super bien croire que tout le monde s&#8217;adore, sur un bout de trottoir ou dans un DM Instagram envoy&#233; &#224; 2 heures du matin depuis une soir&#233;e un peu trop arros&#233;e o&#249; quelqu&#8217;un g&#233;rait son spleen. C&#8217;est toujours le m&#234;me script rod&#233;, digne des meilleures ann&#233;es de Lorie sur le Hit-Machine. On se jette l&#8217;une sur l&#8217;autre en criant &#171; Ma ch&#233;rie ! &#199;a fait trop longtemps ! &#199;a vaaaaaa ? &#187; avec au moins quatre points d&#8217;exclamation et un &#171; &#231;a

diff&#233;rent.</strong></p><p>La v&#233;rit&#233; ? &#199;a irait beaucoup mieux si j&#8217;avais moins de vaisselle en retard dans mon &#233;vier ou si je savais faire la diff&#233;rence entre un pull vintage &#171; int&#233;ressant &#187; et une fringue informe qui finira chez Emma&#252;s avant d&#8217;avoir &#233;t&#233; port&#233;e deux fois. </p><p>Mais quand c&#8217;est ma vraie copine qui m&#8217;envoie ce texto, je le relis trois fois avec un sourire de gamine. On d&#233;veloppe un sixi&#232;me sens pour capter la chaleur performative des gens. On sait quand le &#171; &#231;a va ? &#187; est juste une formule de politesse vide. </p><p>Alors, pour ne pas vriller dans ce grand cirque, j'ai trouv&#233; la parade ultime. <strong>Mes amies, elles, ont eu le g&#233;nie de s'installer au vert. D&#232;s que Paris m&#8217;&#233;touffe et que mon cerveau sature, je prends le premier train et je vais squatter leur jardin d&#8217;&#201;den absolu. L&#224;-bas, je m'incruste sur leur canap&#233;, j'enfile mes joggings les plus informes</strong> et on laisse nos &#233;clats de rire r&#233;sonner sans aucun filtre. C'est <strong>mon paradis d'adoption, ma cure de d&#233;sintoxication du bitume gr&#226;ce &#224; elles.</strong></p><h2>Je d&#233;teste qu&#8217;on m&#8217;appelle et elles le savent tr&#232;s bien</h2><p>Il y a des petits d&#233;tails que mes vraies amies captent sur moi. Je d&#233;teste visc&#233;ralement qu&#8217;on m&#8217;appelle au t&#233;l&#233;phone sans pr&#233;venir. Le bzbzzbz qui vibre sur la table &#224; 14h37 un mardi sans le moindre message d&#8217;avertissement ? Je vomis. </p><p> Les visios? Pire encore : ma hantise absolue. L'id&#233;e m&#234;me de devoir caler ma t&#234;te pixelis&#233;e devant un &#233;cran, de capter mon propre reflet fatigu&#233; en mangeant ma poire en pyjama, &#231;a me donne des sueurs froides. </p><p>Mon truc, c&#8217;est le silence ou le texto. L&#8217;appel surprise ou la cam&#233;ra branch&#233;e, c&#8217;est non. Mais ma vraie hantise, c&#8217;est l&#8217;appel surprise. </p><p><strong>Conna&#238;tre quelqu&#8217;un, c&#8217;est respecter ses petits r&#232;glements int&#233;rieurs absurdes.</strong></p><p>Mes copines ne bravent le signal d&#8217;alarme que dans des cas de force majeure : rupture amoureuse sanglante, r&#233;sultats d&#8217;analyses bizarres, chat malade ou un ragot tellement &#233;norme qu&#8217;il ne peut pas attendre les trente secondes n&#233;cessaires pour &#234;tre tap&#233; sur un clavier. </p><p>Dans ce dernier cas, je d&#233;croche direct en hurlant. Je sais que si elles prennent le risque d&#8217;appeler, c&#8217;est que le drama vaut de l&#8217;or.</p><h2>L&#8217;amour sans aucun filtre Instagram ni paillettes de fa&#231;ade</h2><p>Il y a une sc&#232;ne culte dans <em>Tout ce qui brille</em>, d&#233;sol&#233;e pour le spoiler d&#8217;un film sorti il y a seize ans, vous aviez le temps o&#249; les deux meufs se retrouvent dans un moment de vuln&#233;rabilit&#233; totale. Pas de mise en sc&#232;ne, pas de lumi&#232;re flatteuse, juste deux filles face &#224; leur propre v&#233;rit&#233;. J&#8217;ai la chance folle de vivre ces moments de gr&#226;ce brute avec mes amies.</p><p><strong>C&#8217;est quand on est au bout de notre vie qu&#8217;on est le plus ensemble.</strong></p><p>Ces moments-l&#224; arrivent souvent en sortant d&#8217;un cours de yoga. </p><p>Les cheveux compl&#232;tement plaqu&#233;s sur le cr&#226;ne, le mascara &#233;tal&#233; quelque part entre le couloir de nage et les vestiaires qui sentent le chlore, le visage rouge et lav&#233; de tout artifice.</p><p>C&#8217;est exactement l&#224; qu&#8217;on se balance les vraies v&#233;rit&#233;s. On refait le monde sur un oreiller &#224; 1 heure du matin (souvent 20H55) quand la fatigue a enfin dissous nos barri&#232;res sociales. On discute pendant des heures dans une cuisine de campagne en improvisant avec les restes du frigo, pour d&#233;battre de questions existentielles cruciales, comme savoir si on met du curry dans les p&#226;tes ou si ce mec m&#233;ritait vraiment qu&#8217;on pleure pour lui. </p><p>Elles me jugent parfois (on se juge toutes un peu?) , mais ce jugement ne me d&#233;truit jamais. Il glisse et repart parce que derri&#232;re, il y a un oc&#233;an d&#8217;amour pur.</p><h2>Quand notre communication vrille pour un m&#232;me envoy&#233; &#224; minuit</h2><p>L&#8217;amiti&#233; f&#233;minine telle que je la vis au quotidien n&#8217;a absolument rien d&#8217;un long fleuve tranquille. On est super loin de l&#8217;univers liss&#233; de <em>Sex and the City</em> o&#249; quatre meufs parfaites d&#233;jeunent en terrasse tous les dimanches matin en sirotant des Cosmopolitans. </p><p>Dans la vraie vie, personne n&#8217;a le temps pour &#231;a et ces cocktails sont beaucoup trop sucr&#233;s de toute fa&#231;on.

parfois un exc&#232;s d&#8217;orgueil passager, vous en avez toutes une comme &#231;a, celle dont l&#8217;ego prend autant de place dans une pi&#232;ce qu&#8217;une installation d&#8217;art contemporain bizarre et je suis malheureusement la meuf qui ne sait jamais s&#8217;excuser. </p><p>Pas parce que je ne veux pas, mais parce que le mot &#171; d&#233;sol&#233;e &#187; sonne toujours affreusement faux dans ma bouche, comme si je lisais un prompteur mal traduit. C&#8217;est &#231;a de l&#8217;utiliser &#224; tord et &#224; travers pour m&#8217;excuser de respirer devant chaque passant. </p><p>Alors on s&#8217;ignore pendant deux jours complets. Je d&#233;cr&#232;te dans ma t&#234;te que tout est fini, que notre amiti&#233; est morte et enterr&#233;e et que de toute fa&#231;on j&#8217;allais tr&#232;s bien toute seule. C&#8217;est une posture de fa&#231;ade que j&#8217;emprunte volontiers &#224; l&#8217;esth&#233;tique de la cool girl d&#233;sabus&#233;e des ann&#233;es 2000, quelque part entre un vieux clip d&#8217;Aliz&#233;e et une photo de Kate Moss qui tire la tronche. </p><p>Et puis, une heure apr&#232;s, je lui envoie un m&#232;me d&#233;bile sur Instagram, elle r&#233;pond par un &#233;moji mort de rire et tout repart comme si de rien n&#8217;&#233;tait. Je suis physiquement incapable de vouloir du mal &#224; mes meufs sur la dur&#233;e. Je peux construire un dossier d&#8217;accusation mental qui ferait flipper un procureur, douter de notre lien depuis les fondations, et conclure &#224; chaque fois qu&#8217;elles sont pr&#233;cieuses, dr&#244;les et irrempla&#231;ables. La vie sans elles serait aussi plate qu&#8217;un album de vari&#233;t&#233; fran&#231;aise sans autotune.</p><h2>Une d&#233;claration d&#8217;amour aux folles, aux filles et aux meufs</h2><p>J&#8217;aime les femmes d&#8217;une fa&#231;on qui ne rentre dans aucune case du dictionnaire. J&#8217;aime leur fa&#231;on de s&#8217;imposer dans l&#8217;espace public, leurs &#233;clats de rire super bruyants qui font se retourner toutes les tables d&#8217;&#224; c&#244;t&#233; au resto, et leurs mains qui s&#8217;agitent dans tous les sens quand elles racontent une histoire avec beaucoup trop de gestes. </p><p>Je les aime profond&#233;ment dans leurs contradictions les plus folles : fortes et fragiles, s&#251;res de tout et compl&#232;tement paum&#233;es, brillantes et totalement &#224; c&#244;t&#233; de la plaque, souvent dans la m&#234;me heure et parfois dans la m&#234;me phrase.</p><p><strong>L&#8217;amiti&#233; f&#233;minine, c&#8217;est une romance qui ne dit juste pas son nom.</strong></p><p>Est-ce que c&#8217;est de l&#8217;amour ? Est-ce que c&#8217;est de l&#8217;amiti&#233; ? Est-ce que ces deux mots veulent vraiment dire quelque chose de diff&#233;rent ? Sur ce coup-l&#224;, je dois bien avouer que je s&#232;che. </p><p>Quand mon amie ne r&#233;pond pas &#224; mes messages et que j&#8217;ai visc&#233;ralement besoin d&#8217;elle, la douleur ressemble &#224; s&#8217;y m&#233;prendre &#224; un chagrin d&#8217;amour. Si ce n&#8217;est pas de l&#8217;amour, quelqu&#8217;un devrait de toute urgence inventer un mot &#224; la hauteur du sentiment. </p><p>Ce que je sais avec certitude, c&#8217;est que lorsqu&#8217;elle pleure de rire &#224; une de mes blagues nulles, c&#8217;est l&#8217;une des meilleures sensations disponibles sur cette Terre. Je me bats pour elle dans ma t&#234;te avec une &#233;nergie f&#233;roce que je n&#8217;aurai jamais pour d&#233;fendre ma propre peau.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

partie de mes vingt ans &#224; croire dur comme fer que la r&#233;ponse &#233;tait non. J&#8217;&#233;tais persuad&#233;e que l&#8217;amour romantique &#233;tait le sommet absolu de toutes les &#233;motions humaines, que les copines c&#8217;&#233;tait cool pour patienter, mais que la seule vraie chose qui comptait c&#8217;&#233;tait l&#8217;Autre avec un grand A. Depuis, j&#8217;ai regard&#233; <em>Tout ce qui brille</em> au moins cinq fois et je n&#8217;ai jamais regard&#233; la plus grande des com&#233;dies romantiques autant de fois. L&#8217;amour romantique te demande trop souvent de devenir une autre version de toi-m&#234;me pour plaire et rentrer dans le moule. </p><p>L&#8217;amiti&#233;, elle, te donne le droit sacr&#233; de rester exactement la meuf bizarre que tu es. Mes amies ne sont pas tomb&#233;es amoureuses de mon meilleur profil un soir de f&#234;te. Elles connaissent par c&#339;ur mon profil du lundi matin, celui avec la vaisselle qui d&#233;borde, les cernes de trois kilom&#232;tres et le vieux pull d&#8217;Emma&#252;s.</p><p> Et le plus beau dans tout &#231;a, c&#8217;est qu&#8217;elles reviennent quand m&#234;me chaque semaine.</p><h1>Coda</h1><p>Tout ce qui brille n&#8217;est d&#233;finitivement pas de l&#8217;or. Parfois, c&#8217;est juste le reflet du chlore dans les cheveux mouill&#233;s, la lumi&#232;re crue d&#8217;un couloir d&#8217;immeuble &#224; minuit, la verdure mouill&#233;e de notre &#201;den secret &#224; la campagne ou l&#8217;&#233;cran d&#8217;un t&#233;l&#233;phone qui s&#8217;allume dans le noir avec un m&#232;me d&#233;bile dedans. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>P.S.</strong> J&#8217;ai relu ce texte trois fois en me disant que j&#8217;avais l&#8217;air path&#233;tiquement d&#233;pendante de mes copines. Je l&#8217;ai envoy&#233; &#224; l&#8217;une d&#8217;elles pour qu&#8217;elle valide. Elle a juste r&#233;pondu &#171; ouais c&#8217;est bien mdr &#187; sans m&#234;me prendre le temps de finir de le lire.

Hier soir, je tombe sur une vid&#233;o : une femme annonce qu&#8217;elle attaque son ex-bo&#238;te aux prud&#8217;hommes et qu&#8217;elle va tout filmer. Le proc&#232;s en mini-s&#233;rie et &#224; la cl&#233; : la date d&#8217;audience annonc&#233;e comme un drop Supreme. Elle appelle &#231;a &#171; une exp&#233;rience de vie &#224; partager avec sa communaut&#233; &#187;. </p><p>Moi j&#8217;appelle &#231;a un lundi.</p><h2>1. Le proc&#232;s qu&#8217;on suit comme une s&#233;rie</h2><p>Un licenciement abusif, c&#8217;est moche. Mais sur internet, moche ne suffit plus : il faut un arc narratif, un teaser, une convocation au tribunal qu&#8217;on tease comme un season finale.</p><p><strong>La douleur ne devient l&#233;gitime que lorsqu&#8217;elle se transforme en programme.</strong></p><p>Je ne juge pas, ou &#224; peine mais j&#8217;aurais pu raconter ma derni&#232;re rupture en trois &#233;pisodes, avec une accroche soign&#233;e et un sous-titre qui faisait illusion de recul. Elle, elle a un avocat qui sait d&#233;j&#224; qu&#8217;on va le citer. Moi j&#8217;avais un ex qui ne savait m&#234;me pas que j&#8217;avais un blog. </p><p>Le vocabulaire ne trompe personne. &#171; Renseigner ma communaut&#233;. &#187; &#171; Documenter le process. &#187; &#199;a sonne comme un gloss &#224; l&#232;vres, teinte tigre miel beige poup&#233;e : &#231;a promet de l&#8217;hydratation, &#231;a vend surtout une couleur.</p><div

premi&#232;re fois que je suis all&#233;e au tribunal, j&#8217;avais les jambes qui tremblaient. Je suis arriv&#233;e 57 minutes en avance non pas 1 heure, on va dire 57 minutes, c&#8217;est plus pr&#233;cis et &#231;a fait moins parano.</p><p>&#192; l&#8217;appel des noms, je me suis lev&#233;e. Pour chaque personne cit&#233;e. Comme si on saluait les morts &#224; un enterrement, ou comme si je pensais qu&#8217;un geste de politesse pouvait jouer en ma faveur dans un dossier qui n&#8217;avait absolument rien &#224; voir avec mes bonnes mani&#232;res.</p><p>Mon avocat m&#8217;a envoy&#233; un SMS : il &#233;tait dans le m&#233;tro, ligne 8, 15 minutes de retard. (Quel avocat prend le m&#233;tro, s&#233;rieusement ? Je m&#8217;attendais &#224; un costume trois pi&#232;ces et une berline, pas une carte Navigo.)</p><p>Et puis j&#8217;ai d&#251; parler devant un juge sans r&#233;ussir &#224; reprendre ma respiration entre deux phrases.</p><p>Voil&#224;. Histoire ancienne. Je ne vais pas tagger mon avocat, ni le juge, &#231;a ne les regarde plus, et &#231;a ne regarde personne, en fait.</p><p>Mais je me demande comment un tel moment (ici les jambes qui l&#226;chent, l&#8217;air qui ne rentre plus) peut devenir &#171; une histoire &#224; raconter &#187;, rang&#233;e entre une recette de quiche ch&#232;vre-courgette et son temps de cuisson, dans le m&#234;me fil,

Et je crois que &#231;a vous d&#233;sole aussi, parfois, devant certains formats sur la fausse couche, sur l&#8217;IVG et ce moment o&#249; l&#8217;intime devient un carrousel, la douleur prend un format vertical avec une musique tendance dessous. Ps : merci &#224; ma sage femme @saralasagefemme de m&#8217;avoir aid&#233;.</p><p>&#199;a me ram&#232;ne &#224; ce foutu sujet de philo qu&#8217;on n&#8217;a jamais fini de traiter : la parole, est-ce qu&#8217;on la ma&#238;trise, ou est-ce qu&#8217;elle nous ma&#238;trise ? Et si oui, o&#249; est le curseur ?</p><p>Parce qu&#8217;on accepte tr&#232;s bien qu&#8217;une fille donne le petit pr&#233;nom de son chat &#224; toute sa communaut&#233;. Mais qu&#8217;elle dise (je dis bien si c&#8217;est vrai) qu&#8217;elle a frapp&#233; sa tortue trois fois en deux ans, &#231;a, on ne veut pas l&#8217;entendre. Pourquoi cette ligne, exactement ? Et qui l&#8217;a trac&#233;e ?</p><p>Et pourtant, je ne vais pas jouer la carte 100 % cynique. J&#8217;ai vu une story sur une fausse couche, faire pleurer une copine de soulagement parce qu&#8217;elle a compris qu&#8217;elle n&#8217;avait pas v&#233;cu &#231;a toute seule pendant des ann&#233;es. &#199;a, c&#8217;est pr&#233;cieux. &#199;a ne devrait pas l&#8217;&#234;tre moins parce que c&#8217;est pass&#233; par une appli.</p><p>Peut-&#234;tre que le format n&#8217;est pas le coupable. Peut-&#234;tre qu&#8217;on n&#8217;a juste pas encore trouv&#233; comment parler de la douleur sans, par r&#233;flexe, la mettre en vitrine.</p><p>Ce qui est s&#251;r, c&#8217;est qu&#8217;entre les deux, il y a juste nous. Avec nos jambes qui tremblent, et l&#8217;envie un peu maladroite de ne pas &#234;tre seuls dans la salle d&#8217;audience.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link

Quelqu&#8217;un souffre ou s&#8217;amuse, et quelqu&#8217;un d&#8217;autre (souvent la m&#234;me personne, vu d&#8217;un certain angle) calcule d&#233;j&#224; combien &#231;a va faire en vues.</p><p><strong>Ce qui nous &#233;chappe, ce n&#8217;est pas la justice ni le plaisir.

Avec une accroche soign&#233;e, un visuel qui va bien, et l&#8217;espoir pas si secret que &#231;a fasse du chiffre.</p><p>Donc oui. Escroc.

semaine derni&#232;re pour faire une vid&#233;o de quarante secondes sur Canva Pro, abonnement 14,99 euros par mois, dont j&#8217;utilise principalement la fonction &#8220;annuler&#8221;. La transition entre deux photos &#233;tait de travers. J&#8217;ai recommenc&#233; onze fois. &#192; la douzi&#232;me, j&#8217;ai ferm&#233; l&#8217;onglet et mang&#233; du fromage directement dans le frigo debout.</p><p>Pendant ce temps, elle (Jennifeur,l&#8217;influenceuse) a post&#233; trois reels. Transitions parfaites. Son cal&#233; au milli&#232;me de seconde. Typo qui appara&#238;t exactement quand il faut. Et en l&#233;gende : <em>juste une petite journ&#233;e tranquille &#224; la maison.</em></p><p>Je ne dis pas qu&#8217;elle ment. Je dis qu&#8217;il y a quelque chose dans cette &#233;quation que la physique newtonienne ne suffit pas &#224; expliquer.</p><p><strong>Ce que l&#8217;on appelle &#8220;authenticit&#233;&#8221; est souvent le produit d&#8217;une &#233;quipe enti&#232;re de gens qu&#8217;on ne verra jamais.</strong></p><p><strong>II. Le mail part. Le mail ne revient pas.</strong></p><p>J&#8217;ai une th&#233;orie sur les mails aux influenceuses. Ils vont dans un endroit sp&#233;cial, sur uranus peut-&#234;tre?. Un purgatoire num&#233;rique o&#249; les demandes de collaboration attendent, pour l&#8217;&#233;ternit&#233;, une r&#233;ponse qui ne viendra pas.</p><p>J&#8217;en ai envoy&#233; un un mardi matin &#224; 10h.

J&#8217;ai attendu trois semaines puis laiss&#233; tomber.</p><p>Le lendemain, elle postait une story : <em>je croule sous les demandes, j&#8217;essaie de r&#233;pondre &#224; tout le monde, merci pour votre patience.</em></p><p>J&#8217;ai failli r&#233;pondre &#224; la story. </p><p>La v&#233;rit&#233;, je crois, c&#8217;est que ne pas r&#233;pondre est devenu une forme de communication.

Et voil&#224;. La pr&#233;sence existe. Le contenu existe. L&#8217;&#233;v&#233;nement est tagu&#233;.</p><p>Elle &#233;tait s&#251;rement chez elle. Plaid polaire, troisi&#232;me cuill&#232;re de Ben &amp; Jerry&#8217;s, L&#8217;&#238;le de la tentation en fond. Ce qui est, franchement, un excellent programme. Mais ce n&#8217;&#233;tait pas la question.</p><p>La question, c&#8217;est : &#224; quel moment a-t-on d&#233;cid&#233; que l&#8217;image de la vie valait autant que la vie elle-m&#234;me ?</p><p><strong>On n&#8217;ach&#232;te plus une pr&#233;sence o,  ach&#232;te une image de pr&#233;sence, ce qui est techniquement plus &#233;conomique pour tout le monde.</strong></p><p><strong>IV. Le prix du poignet</strong></p><p>Apr&#232;s cette soir&#233;e, j&#8217;ai commenc&#233; &#224; regarder autrement.</p><p>J&#8217;ai pass&#233; du temps, un peu trop, en fait, &#224; reconstituer les tarifs. Ce que co&#251;te, pour une marque, le fait qu&#8217;une c&#233;l&#233;brit&#233; porte une parure pendant quatre secondes sur un tapis rouge. Qu&#8217;elle l&#232;ve la main dans la bonne direction. Que son poignet soit au bon endroit au bon moment.</p><p><strong>Le chiffre m&#8217;a arr&#234;t&#233;e net.</strong></p><p>Ce n&#8217;est pas le prix de mon rouge &#224; l&#232;vres Hema. Ce n&#8217;est pas non plus celui de mon mascara Monoprix que j&#8217;ach&#232;te en lot de deux quand il est en promo. C&#8217;est une somme &#224; plusieurs chiffres qui, divis&#233;e par quatre secondes, produit un tarif horaire que je ne calculerai pas ici parce que je veux continuer &#224; sortir du lit le matin.</p><p>L&#8217;influenceuse n&#8217;est pas une femme qui partage sa vie. C&#8217;est un canal de diffusion avec une audience captive, un taux d&#8217;engagement mesur&#233;, et un media kit en PDF douze pages. La diff&#233;rence avec un panneau Decaux, c&#8217;est qu&#8217;elle sourit et qu&#8217;on croit la conna&#238;tre.</p><p><strong>L&#8217;influence est une industrie qui s&#8217;est d&#233;guis&#233;e en amiti&#233;.</strong></p><p><strong>V. Clara et le syndrome de la semaine</strong></p><p>La sur-organisation document&#233;e story par story. Le suramour qu&#8217;on filme &#224; 7h du matin. La surpens&#233;e racont&#233;e en carrousel de dix slides avec des petites fl&#232;ches. Et surtout (surtout point d&#8217;exclamation) la parole lib&#233;r&#233;e sur la sant&#233; mentale. Le HPI. Le TDAH. Le HPE. Les acronymes se multiplient au point que je note plus lequel est lequel. Et qui en parle ? Clara. Celle qui vend des pots pourris &#224; la vanille de 34 euros et des cours de journaling en ligne.</p><p>Je sais que ce que je vais dire est d&#233;licat &#224; formuler. La libert&#233; d&#8217;expression ne devrait plus &#234;tre un sujet &#224; d&#233;battre en France en 2026. </p><p>Le probl&#232;me, c&#8217;est l&#8217;effet que &#231;a produit sur moi.</p><p>Parce qu&#8217;&#224; force d&#8217;entendre quelqu&#8217;un diagnostiquer sa propre neuro-atypicit&#233; entre deux placements de produit, je me retrouve &#224; me demander si moi aussi j&#8217;ai &#8220;quelque chose&#8221;. </p><p><strong>La surperformance &#233;motionnelle cr&#233;e exactement la m&#234;me sensation que la surperformance esth&#233;tique : l&#8217;impression tenace d&#8217;&#234;tre en retard sur sa propre existence.</strong></p><p><strong>Coda</strong></p><p>L&#8217;influenceuse n&#8217;existe pas. Il existe une marque, un contenu, une strat&#233;gie de pr&#233;sence, et quelque part derri&#232;re une femme dont je ne sais presque rien.</p><p>Ce qui existe, par contre, c&#8217;est moi, qui regarde, qui compare&#8230; Qui met un diffuseur &#224; 90 euros dans son panier et l&#8217;enl&#232;ve et le remet&#8230; Qui?</p><p>Bises du canap&#8217;,</p><p>Avec gentillesse et maladresse, </p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Clean, Green, Fauchée]]></title><description><![CDATA[Elle : Paris 6&#232;me, routine 12 &#233;tapes, eau micellaire bio.

Ou la plus.</p><p>Ma meilleure amie est une clean girl parfaite. Peau qui capte la lumi&#232;re exactement comme il faut, appartement qui ressemble &#224; un compte Pinterest sans effort apparent, comme une couture bien faite &#224; l'int&#233;rieur d'une veste. Moi, j'ai un pot d'huile de coco. On s'&#233;l&#232;ve mutuellement. On r&#234;ve grand. Et quelque chose me tracasse quand m&#234;me.</p></div><p><strong>I. Le livre qu&#8217;on ach&#232;te pour la couverture</strong></p><p>Le statut social a toujours &#233;t&#233; un th&#233;&#226;tre. Ce qui change aujourd&#8217;hui, c&#8217;est que la salle est partout et la pi&#232;ce ne s&#8217;arr&#234;te jamais. La <em>clean girl aesthetic</em> est l&#8217;exemple le plus sophistiqu&#233; de ce glissement : elle vend l&#8217;id&#233;e que le statut s&#8217;ach&#232;te, oui, mais avec go&#251;t. Pas de logo apparent. Juste du lin, du verre d&#233;poli, et un diffuseur &#224; 90 euros qui sent le c&#232;dre japonais.</p><p>Sauf que le luxe ne s&#8217;acquiert pas en deux heures sur S&#233;zane. C&#8217;est comme acheter un livre &#224; la mode sans l&#8217;ouvrir : &#231;a fait bonne figure sur l&#8217;&#233;tag&#232;re, mais int&#233;rieurement, il n&#8217;y a rien. </p><p><em><strong>On ne devient pas &#233;l&#233;gante en achetant les m&#234;mes objets que les gens &#233;l&#233;gants. C&#8217;est l&#8217;erreur logique au c&#339;ur de tout le syst&#232;me.</strong></em></p><p>L&#8217;aspiration est humaine, magnifique m&#234;me. Le probl&#232;me, c&#8217;est la confusion entre le signe et la chose. Entre le carnet Moleskine et l&#8217;&#233;crivaine. Entre le tapis de yoga en li&#232;ge et la femme apais&#233;e. Entre le s&#233;rum &#224; 120 euros et la peau r&#233;ellement nourrie, vivante.</p><p><strong>II. La beaut&#233; comme capital, mais pour qui ?</strong></p><p>Parlons du beauty privil&#232;ge, puisqu&#8217;on est entre nous. &#202;tre belle au sens normatif du terme ouvre des portes. Des &#233;tudes le documentent, les sociologues l&#8217;analysent, toutes les femmes le savent d&#8217;exp&#233;rience. Le <em>lookism</em> est l&#8217;un des biais les moins reconnus et les plus actifs de nos soci&#233;t&#233;s : vous avez plus de chances d&#8217;&#234;tre embauch&#233;e, mieux pay&#233;e, crue sur parole, si votre apparence correspond aux standards dominants. C&#8217;est in&#233;gal, injuste, et r&#233;el.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Ce que la clean girl aesthetic fait de ce privil&#232;ge, c&#8217;est le normaliser en le rendant accessible en apparence. &#8220;Tu peux avoir ce look toi aussi&#8221; &#224; condition d&#8217;acheter les bons produits, d&#8217;avoir le bon appartement, de le photographier avec la bonne lumi&#232;re du matin. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">Du beauty privil&#232;ge emball&#233; en kit, vendu comme d&#233;mocratisation, qui reconduit exactement les m&#234;mes hi&#233;rarchies. Parce que la lumi&#232;re naturelle est plus belle dans un grand appartement parisien que dans une chambre de bonne. Parce que le s&#233;rum Augustinus Bader 170 euros les 30ml ne rentre pas dans tous les budgets. Parce que les sourcils parfaits de certaines, elles les ont eus gratuitement &#224; la loterie g&#233;n&#233;tique, et personne ne le dit dans la caption.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>III.

naturel : elle g&#233;n&#232;re une quantit&#233; astronomique de d&#233;chets. La <em>clean beauty</em> est l&#8217;un des segments les plus dynamiques de l&#8217;industrie cosm&#233;tique et l&#8217;un des moins r&#233;gul&#233;s. &#8220;Clean&#8221;, &#8220;green&#8221;, &#8220;natural&#8221; : des mots sans d&#233;finition l&#233;gale, mais qui vendent tr&#232;s bien.</p><p><strong>IV. La sororit&#233; et l&#8217;exp&#233;rience brute</strong></p><p>Je crois &#224; la sororit&#233;. Vraiment. Mais je me demande si on peut en construire une autour d&#8217;une esth&#233;tique partag&#233;e. &#8220;On a les m&#234;mes r&#233;f&#233;rences visuelles&#8221; oui mais est-ce que &#231;a suffit &#224; faire communaut&#233; ma pov&#8217; lucette? </p><p>Je vois quelque chose se passer dans ma g&#233;n&#233;ration : un lien construit sur Instagram, sur des go&#251;ts communs, sur des humeurs partag&#233;es via des stories, qui ressemble &#224; la sororit&#233; mais qui en manque peut-&#234;tre l&#8217;essentiel. L&#8217;exp&#233;rience brute, d&#233;filtr&#233;e, un peu moche.</p><p>Je ne suis pas sur TikTok. Un choix que je maintiens avec l&#8217;&#233;nergie de quelqu&#8217;un qui a lu assez d&#8217;articles sur l&#8217;attention fragment&#233;e pour ne pas vouloir tester &#231;a sur elle-m&#234;me. Depuis ce bord-l&#224;, ce qu&#8217;on appelle &#8220;communaut&#233;&#8221; sur les plateformes me semble souvent &#234;tre autre chose : de l&#8217;agr&#233;gation d&#8217;audience d&#233;guis&#233;e en lien. De la performance de l&#8217;appartenance. On ne se conna&#238;t pas, on se reconna&#238;t.

C&#8217;est aussi l&#8217;&#226;ge o&#249; le maquillage devient un vrai terrain d&#8217;expression personnelle, parfois artistique, parfois politique.</p><p>Lui apprendre &#224; lire une &#233;tiquette, &#224; identifier les ingr&#233;dients &#224; &#233;viter, &#224; ne pas se laisser aveugler par le marketing ou par les recommandations d&#8217;influenceuses r&#233;mun&#233;r&#233;es : c&#8217;est lui rendre un service durable. Le sens critique face aux injonctions de la beaut&#233; se construit aussi dans ces conversations-l&#224;.</p><p>La question de la coh&#233;rence avec le lieu de vie se pose &#233;galement. Un maquillage l&#233;ger port&#233; au lyc&#233;e n&#8217;est pas le m&#234;me message qu&#8217;un contouring &#233;labor&#233; impos&#233; chaque matin &#224; 7h30. Les parents ont le droit, et m&#234;me le devoir, d&#8217;&#233;tablir un cadre. </p><p><em><strong>Apr&#232;s ? C&#8217;est plus mon probl&#232;me. MAIS&#8230;</strong></em></p><h2><strong>Les cils comme armure</strong></h2><p>Il faut avoir regard&#233; de pr&#232;s une pose de cils semi-permanents pour comprendre ce qu&#8217;on entend par rituel. Deux heures allong&#233;e les yeux ferm&#233;s, en silence, pendant qu&#8217;une esth&#233;ticienne applique un &#224; un des extensions sur chacun de vos cils naturels. Le r&#233;sultat dure trois &#224; cinq semaines. Il faut &#233;viter l&#8217;eau les 24 premi&#232;res heures, ne pas se frotter les yeux, dormir sur le dos de pr&#233;f&#233;rence. Et recommencer.</p><p>Margot, 26 ans, n&#8217;a pas manqu&#233; un rendez-vous en deux ans. &#8220;C&#8217;est mon seul truc fixe dans le mois&#8221;, dit-elle avec un calme qui ressemble un peu &#224; un aveu. Pas de fixe dans son contrat, pas de fixe dans son loyer (colocation changeante), mais les cils, chaque cinq semaines, c&#8217;est s&#251;r. On a connu des ancres plus loufoques.</p><h2><strong>Le sourcil, unit&#233; de mesure du s&#233;rieux</strong></h2><p>Il faut remonter aux ann&#233;es 2010 et &#224; Kim Kardashian pour comprendre d&#8217;o&#249; vient l&#8217;obsession du sourcil &#233;pais, structur&#233;, &#8220;lamin&#233;&#8221;. La technique du laminage sourcils, qui consiste &#224; coller les poils dans une direction pr&#233;cise pour un effet broussailleux-mais-rang&#233;, oxymore vivant, s&#8217;est d&#233;mocratis&#233;e &#224; une vitesse que m&#234;me les sp&#233;cialistes n&#8217;avaient pas anticip&#233;e. </p><h2><strong>La routine comme th&#233;rapie de pauvre</strong></h2><p>Ce serait trop simple et un peu condescendant de n&#8217;y voir que du narcissisme ou de la frivolit&#233;. Ce que ces rituels disent, en creux, c&#8217;est quelque chose de plus nu : dans un monde o&#249; les grandes d&#233;cisions semblent hors d&#8217;atteinte (logement, emploi stable, retraite qui ne sera peut-&#234;tre plus l&#224;), le visage reste un territoire administrable.</p><p>Les psys ont un mot pour &#231;a &#8220;locus de contr&#244;le interne&#8221;.</p><h2><strong>Mais quand m&#234;me</strong></h2><p>Il serait malhonn&#234;te de clore le sujet l&#224;, dans le doux coton de la bienveillance pure. Parce qu&#8217;il y a une autre face, moins r&#233;confortante. Celle des jeunes femmes qui passent plus de temps &#224; choisir leur fond de teint qu&#8217;&#224; manger du concombre (parce que du con &#231;a on en mange). Celle des corps retouch&#233;s sur les comptes &#8220;wellness&#8221; qui vendent en m&#234;me temps des compl&#233;ments alimentaires et une vision de ce que &#8220;prendre soin de soi&#8221; devrait produire comme r&#233;sultat visible.</p><p>La wellmania a aussi ses in&#233;galit&#233;s. Un rendez-vous de cils, c&#8217;est entre 60 et 100 euros. Un soin du visage professionnel, pareil. La routine dix &#233;tapes de L&#233;a, avec ses s&#233;rums cor&#233;ens import&#233;s, d&#233;passe all&#232;grement les 200 euros de produits.</p><p>L&#233;a a fini sa routine. Il est 7h42. Elle va &#234;tre en retard mais ses cils sont parfaits. Sa journ&#233;e, on verra.</p><p>Ce qui serait bien, collectivement, c&#8217;est qu&#8217;on lui fiche la paix dans les deux sens. Qu&#8217;on arr&#234;te de lui vendre du fond de teint &#8220;bonne mine naturelle&#8221; , et qu&#8217;on arr&#234;te aussi, quand elle sort sans rien, de lui dire qu&#8217;elle est &#8220;belle quand m&#234;me&#8221;. Le <em>quand m&#234;me</em> est le probl&#232;me. Il embarque avec lui toute une th&#233;ologie implicite dont personne n&#8217;a command&#233; la livraison.</p><p>Personne ne dit &#224; quelqu&#8217;un qui sort en Hoka &#8220;t&#8217;es bien habill&#233; sans Nike&#8221;. </p><p>Personne ne complimente le sac Tati comme un geste d&#8217;authenticit&#233; face au Vuitton. Mais le visage non maquill&#233;, lui, continue de recevoir des encouragements condescendants dans leur bienveillance, comme si sortir sans mascara &#233;tait un acte de r&#233;sistance civile qui m&#233;ritait une m&#233;daille et peut-&#234;tre une couverture de magazine?</p><p>La vraie libert&#233;, dans tout &#231;a, ce n&#8217;est ni le dix &#233;tapes ni le &#8220;no makeup&#8221;. C&#8217;est juste que les deux coexistent sans que chacun soit le commentaire moral de l&#8217;autre. Qu&#8217;on puisse mettre du gloss sans que &#231;a veuille dire quelque chose sur l&#8217;&#233;tat du capitalisme. Et ne pas en mettre sans que &#231;a veuille dire autre chose sur l&#8217;&#233;tat de son f&#233;minisme.</p><p>Les ongles en gel de Margot tiennent trois semaines. Elle refait. Ou pas. Ce n&#8217;est pas une d&#233;claration. C&#8217;est juste elle, ce qui, dans le fond, &#233;tait tout ce qu&#8217;on lui demandait.</p><p><em>Les pr&#233;noms ont &#233;t&#233; modifi&#233;s. Les injonctions, elles, circulent toujours en format libre.</em></p><p><em>Bises du canap avec mon kit manucurist, </em></p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Je veux me prendre un râteau pour avoir du sable entre les doigts ]]></title><description><![CDATA[L&#8217;IA peut tout faire.

Le truc &#224; la s&#233;rie criminelle Netflix avec un brin HPI pour faire un clin d&#8217;&#339;il &#224; notre patrimoine audiovisuel : une carte de maboule, avec du stylo rouge, des dessins, des fautes, des rayures, des taches, des traces de doigts, les mots de mes copines griffonn&#233;s dans les marges. Une b&#226;che g&#233;ante, vivante, un peu sale. Surtout pas un &#233;cran de 12&#215;14 pour y mettre mes id&#233;es de g&#233;nie et ma cr&#233;ativit&#233; infinie.</p><p><strong>Ensuite, j&#8217;aimerais crier en bord de mer.</strong></p><p>Crier pour les enfants malheureux, les malades, les gens seuls, la guerre et Toutikanti. Je pourrais crier sur TikTok et ses d&#233;rives, crier sur mes mails, sur mon compte bancaire qui ne reconna&#238;t jamais ma gueule en Face ID et me demande sept codes &#224; la suite (j&#8217;ai bien pens&#233; &#224; vous laisser le code, mais non). </p><p>Crier sur la voice de six minutes que je n&#8217;&#233;couterai jamais. Crier sur l&#8217;agenda qui n&#8217;a rien de mieux &#224; me proposer qu&#8217;un d&#233;j dans un caf&#233;, seule. Crier sur le self-checkout du Monoprix qui me demande si j&#8217;ai une carte de fid&#233;lit&#233; alors que je n&#8217;ai jamais &#233;t&#233; fid&#232;le. Sur le formulaire en ligne qui expire apr&#232;s vingt minutes et remet tout &#224; z&#233;ro. </p><p>Crier sur la playlist Spotify qui me met une pub pour la mutuelle Alan quand je suis en s&#233;ance de yoga. Et crier, face &#224; personne, sans mur, sans mes doigts qui tapotent sur un clavier au rythme d&#8217;une haine trop &#233;lev&#233;e ; crier, juste, dans un champ de bl&#233; immense. Avec un verre de blanc &#224; la fin et une vogue.</p><p>J&#8217;aimerais &#233;couter quelqu&#8217;un. Genre vraiment. Laisser mon cerveau se consacrer au rythme des mots de la personne en face de moi, la comprendre, peut-&#234;tre la rassurer mais mon cerveau n&#8217;est plus capable de faire des formats longs. </p><p><em>Talk small is possible, madame ?</em> J&#8217;aimerais une conversation qui commence sans ordre du jour. Juste quelqu&#8217;un qui parle et moi qui suis, jusqu&#8217;au bout de la phrase, sans avoir d&#233;j&#224; formul&#233; ma r&#233;ponse au deuxi&#232;me mot.</p><p>J&#8217;aimerais courir, aimer, serrer quelqu&#8217;un dans mes bras plut&#244;t qu&#8217;attendre une notification sur le 12&#215;14 avec son voyant vert et son bzzzz &#8212; <em>il est 23h, tu as droit &#224; ta premi&#232;re pens&#233;e du jour.</em> J&#8217;aimerais rentrer d&#8217;une balade sans avoir pris une seule photo. Manger quelque chose sans chercher si c&#8217;est inflammatoire. Acheter un truc sans lire les avis. Regarder le ciel sans me demander si c&#8217;est un bon fond d&#8217;&#233;cran.</p><p>Et mon plus grand r&#234;ve, le vrai, ce serait de ne rien faire. Sur un lit ou sur une serviette &#224; la plage, partir si loin dans mes pens&#233;es que j&#8217;aurais s&#251;rement d&#233;j&#224; r&#233;solu cette foutue affaire Epstein, moi. </p><p>Je pourrais danser dans ma t&#234;te, sur un th&#233;&#226;tre devant mes fans, mettre une jolie robe blanche et rentrer &#224; la maison le corps sal&#233;. Juste ne rien faire. Laisser traverser tout ce qui doit passer ; feu vert, rouge, orange, je m&#8217;en fous. L&#8217;id&#233;e c&#8217;est d&#8217;aller avec soi jusqu&#8217;au bout. Sans optimiser. Sans timer Pomodoro. Sans se f&#233;liciter d&#8217;avoir &#233;t&#233; productive.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

Elle a ses propres r&#232;gles, son propre plafond de verre, sa propre fa&#231;on d&#8217;&#234;tre totale et suffisante et absolument herm&#233;tique &#224; tout ce qui ressemblerait &#224; de la s&#233;duction. Elle est ce qu&#8217;elle dit &#234;tre : un c&#226;ble bien branch&#233; entre deux ports compatibles. On se voit, on se reconna&#238;t, on s&#8217;estime. Et on rentre chez soi, s&#233;par&#233;ment, tr&#232;s bien, sans drama, bonne nuit.</p><p>Le d&#233;sert, lui, est bien organis&#233;. Horizon d&#233;gag&#233;, temp&#233;rature stable, aucune surprise. On apprend &#224; s&#8217;y mouvoir avec une certaine &#233;l&#233;gance. On appelle &#231;a la maturit&#233;, para&#238;t-il. Moi j&#8217;appelle &#231;a manger du sable avec le sourire, mais bon.</p><p>Voici ce que ressemble une soir&#233;e ordinaire, reconstitu&#233;e fid&#232;lement, sans rien enjoliver.</p><p>Trois conversations ouvertes en m&#234;me temps. Trois onglets. Trois hommes intelligents, curieux, qui &#233;crivent bien ; ce qui est, je le conc&#232;de, un filtre d&#233;j&#224; tr&#232;s s&#233;lectif et probablement le c&#339;ur du probl&#232;me.</p><p><strong>Onglet 1.</strong> On parle de Debord depuis quarante minutes. Il cite, je contre-cite, on s&#8217;emballe, c&#8217;est presque physique comme &#233;change. Je sens que je pourrais &#233;crire &#8220;on se voit cette semaine ?&#8221; et que &#231;a ne serait pas d&#233;plac&#233;. Je ne l&#8217;&#233;cris pas. Lui non plus. On repart sur Baudrillard.</p><p><strong>Onglet 2.</strong> Lui, il est en d&#233;placement. Toujours. Berlin cette semaine, Lyon la semaine prochaine, un truc vague en Scandinavie le mois d&#8217;apr&#232;s. On parle depuis trois semaines avec une r&#233;gularit&#233; de m&#233;tronome et une intimit&#233; croissante qui commence &#224; ressembler &#224; quelque chose. Il m&#8217;envoie des photos de ce qu&#8217;il mange. Je commente. C&#8217;est notre niveau de relation physique.</p><p><strong>Onglet 3.</strong> Celui-l&#224; est le plus dangereux parce qu&#8217;il est dr&#244;le. Vraiment dr&#244;le. Le genre qui vous fait rire seule dans votre canap&#233; &#224; 23h et qui, si on se croisait dans une pi&#232;ce, rendrait probablement les choses compliqu&#233;es. &#8220;Ce weekend tu fais quoi ?&#8221; il demande. Ah, le week-end. Ce territoire mythologique. Il part &#224; la campagne. &#201;videmment. Comme tous les weekends. Il a une maison quelque part dans un rayon de deux heures, des amis qui l&#8217;attendent, un rythme de vie qui l&#8217;absorbe du vendredi soir au dimanche soir avec une r&#233;gularit&#233; suspecte. Lundi il sera l&#224;. Lundi on reprend.</p><p>Et moi je suis l&#224;, dans mon appartement, avec mes trois onglets ouverts, &#224; faire semblant que c&#8217;est une vie amoureuse.</p><p>La v&#233;rit&#233;, c&#8217;est que personne ne demande &#224; se voir&#8230; un risque infime mais r&#233;el de sortir du confortable flux de mots pour atterrir dans le concret l&#233;g&#232;rement embarrassant d&#8217;un vrai rendez-vous?

Il y a ceux qui couvrent les guerres. Ceux qui interviewent des chefs d&#8217;&#201;tat. Ceux qui passent des nuits blanches sur des dossiers d&#8217;investigation qui font tomber des ministres. Et puis il y a moi dans une salle obscure de Paris, accr&#233;dit&#233;e pour l&#8217;avant-premi&#232;re du Diable s&#8217;habille en Prada 2, carnet de notes sur les genoux, en train de me demander si Miranda Priestly aurait valid&#233; mon legging de sport l&#233;opard (surement pas.). </p><p><strong>Ce que personne ne vous dit sur les avant-premi&#232;res</strong></p><p>D&#8217;abord, pr&#233;cisons une chose : une avant-premi&#232;re, c&#8217;est du travail. Je tiens &#224; le dire clairement, notamment &#224; ma pote qui m&#8217;a demand&#233; si &#8220;c&#8217;&#233;tait vraiment n&#233;cessaire d&#8217;y aller un lundi matin &#8221;. Oui c&#8217;est ce qu&#8217;on appelle le terrain.</p><h3><strong>Runway, c&#8217;est nous, et &#231;a fait mal.</strong></h3><p style="text-align: justify;">Le premier Diable s&#8217;habille en Prada, sorti en 2006, avait cette superbe un peu arrogante de la presse &#224; son apog&#233;e. On y fabriquait du d&#233;sir &#224; la cha&#238;ne. On arbitrait les tendances. On d&#233;cidait ce qui existait. Le journalisme de mode et par extension, le journalisme tout court avait encore cette certitude tranquille d&#8217;&#234;tre indispensable.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Vingt ans plus tard, le deuxi&#232;me volet arrive avec une franchise qui d&#233;range : Runway est en crise. La presse papier d&#233;cline, les sponsors dictent l&#8217;&#233;ditorial, l&#8217;algorithme a plus de pouvoir que le r&#233;dacteur en chef, et Miranda Priestly AKA la femme la plus intimidante de l&#8217;histoire du cin&#233;ma doit d&#233;sormais n&#233;gocier avec des gens qui, il y a vingt ans, n&#8217;auraient m&#234;me pas eu son num&#233;ro de t&#233;l&#233;phone.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Ce que le film d&#233;crit, c&#8217;est exactement ce que vivent la plupart des r&#233;dactions en 2026 : la mon&#233;tisation qui grignote l&#8217;ind&#233;pendance, les &#233;v&#233;nements sponsoris&#233;s qui remplacent les enqu&#234;tes, les KPIs qui s&#8217;invitent en r&#233;union &#233;ditoriale. Le film le dit avec des r&#233;pliques dr&#244;les, tr&#232;s dr&#244;les, l&#224; o&#249; nous, on l&#8217;avale en silence avec un caf&#233; froid.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Note professionnelle : quand une com&#233;die hollywoodienne d&#233;crit l&#8217;&#233;tat de votre industrie avec plus d&#8217;acuit&#233; qu&#8217;un rapport Reuters Institute, c&#8217;est soit que le film est remarquablement bien &#233;crit, soit que la situation est remarquablement pr&#233;occupante. Probablement les deux.</p><p><strong>Emily Blunt dirige un groupe de luxe. Moi j&#8217;ai toujours pas ma carte de presse. On fait avec.</strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;">Dans le premier film, Emily Charlton (Emily Blunt, imp&#233;riale) &#233;tait la premi&#232;re assistante de Miranda : d&#233;vou&#233;e, acerbe, perp&#233;tuellement &#224; bout de souffle et de calories. Elle incarnait cette servitude volontaire que le milieu sait si bien entretenir &#8212;et que, soyons honn&#234;tes, beaucoup d&#8217;entre nous ont pratiqu&#233;e &#224; nos d&#233;buts sans jamais l&#8217;appeler par son nom.</p><p>Dans ce deuxi&#232;me opus, Emily est devenue une puissante dirigeante d&#8217;un groupe de luxe qui tient les cordons de la bourse de Runway. Le rapport de force s&#8217;est invers&#233;. Elle a le ch&#233;quier. Miranda a le titre. </p><p><em>Note professionnelle : j&#8217;ai v&#233;rifi&#233;. C&#8217;est aussi vrai dans les r&#233;dactions.</em></p><p style="text-align: justify;">Vingt ans plus tard, Andy Sachs monte les marches de chez Miranda pour n&#233;gocier. C&#8217;est un d&#233;tail, mais dans l&#8217;&#233;conomie symbolique de ce film, c&#8217;est &#233;norme. &#192; 31 ans, apr&#232;s quelques ann&#233;es de m&#233;tier, je peux confirmer : apprendre &#224; ne plus courir apr&#232;s la validation et commencer &#224; n&#233;gocier sa place, c&#8217;est effectivement un arc narratif qui prend du temps. Le film lui accorde vingt ans. C&#8217;est honn&#234;te.</p><p><strong>L&#8217;IA a fait son entr&#233;e dans la salle de r&#233;union. </strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;">C&#8217;est la diff&#233;rence la plus ancr&#233;e dans l&#8217;&#233;poque, et c&#8217;est celle que j&#8217;attendais avec le plus de m&#233;fiance. Les r&#233;f&#233;rences &#224; l&#8217;intelligence artificielle, &#224; la transformation des m&#233;tiers cr&#233;atifs, aux nouveaux codes de la communication traversent le r&#233;cit  sans conf&#233;rence TED, sans personnage qui explique ce qu&#8217;est un prompt, sans sc&#232;ne p&#233;dagogique qui daterait le film dans six mois.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Le sarcasme est parfait. Les r&#233;pliques sont dr&#244;les. Et le film parvient &#224; traiter des sujets qui plombent nos d&#233;jeuners de r&#233;daction depuis trois ans sans jamais tomber dans le documentaire anxiog&#232;ne.</p><p><strong>Miranda Priestly est vuln&#233;rable. J&#8217;ai failli l&#226;cher mon carnet (de toute fa&#231;on je voyais rien).</strong></p><p>C&#8217;est la diff&#233;rence la plus inattendue, et la plus r&#233;ussie. Le premier film &#233;tait corrosif, impitoyable, d&#233;licieusement cruel. Celui-ci garde l&#8217;acidit&#233;, rassurez-vous, Meryl Streep n&#8217;a pas ramolli, mais y ajoute quelque chose de surprenant : de la vuln&#233;rabilit&#233;. Miranda est fragilis&#233;e.  </p><p>Quant &#224; la romance, elle reste l&#233;g&#232;re, anecdotique, jamais envahissante. On avait craint le Bridget Jones en talons. </p><p><strong>En conclusion : Job down.</strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;">Le Diable s&#8217;habille en Prada 2 sort en salles ce mercredi 29 avril. C&#8217;est un film sur le pouvoir, sur le temps qui passe, sur les industries qui se transforment en faisant semblant que tout va bien. C&#8217;est aussi une com&#233;die tr&#232;s dr&#244;le avec des tenues extraordinaires.</p><p>Mon article complet cinq diff&#233;rences entre les deux films, analys&#233;es avec le s&#233;rieux que la situation impose est disponible sur le site <a href="https://www.oniriq.fr/">www.oniriq.fr</a>. </p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Du FOMO au… JOMO sous perfusion d’IA]]></title><description><![CDATA[Pendant longtemps, le FOMO &#8212; Fear Of Missing Out &#8212; a dict&#233; nos agendas.

n&#8217;est pas une faiblesse individuelle. C&#8217;est une construction collective. Le sociologue Hartmut Rosa, dans sa th&#233;orie de l&#8217;<em>acc&#233;l&#233;ration sociale</em>, d&#233;crit une soci&#233;t&#233; prise dans une spirale o&#249; chaque technologie cens&#233;e nous faire gagner du temps nous en consomme davantage. L&#8217;agenda se remplit parce qu&#8217;il faut &#234;tre l&#224;. Partout. Tout le temps. Le JOMO, lui, commence &#224; &#234;tre s&#233;rieusement &#233;tudi&#233; en psychologie : des recherches r&#233;centes le d&#233;finissent comme un &#233;tat de satisfaction li&#233; au d&#233;sengagement d&#233;lib&#233;r&#233; du flux num&#233;rique, corr&#233;l&#233; positivement &#224; la pleine conscience et au bien-&#234;tre mental.</p><p><em><strong>Le canap&#233; comme front row</strong></em></p><p>Jogging, tisane menthe 3 sucres et lunettes viss&#233;es sur le nez, et pourtant, mentalement, tout est l&#224; :</p><p>* D&#233;fil&#233; imaginaire pendant la Fashion Week</p><p>* D&#233;jeuner sc&#233;naris&#233; sur l&#8217;avenue Montaigne avec Cardi B </p><p>* Vie sociale reconstitu&#233;e &#224; coups d&#8217;images, de scrolls et de projections.</p><p>L&#8217;IA et les r&#233;seaux sociaux permettent d&#233;sormais une immersion mentale ultra-performante.

opportunit&#233;s, forcer le destin.</p><p>Aujourd&#8217;hui, j&#8217;ai toujours envie, mais un peu plus de flemme, beaucoup de flemme&#8230; </p><p>Pourquoi ?</p><p>Parce que le cerveau a trouv&#233; un raccourci : vivre symboliquement plut&#244;t que concr&#232;tement.</p><p>Le vrai risque : l&#8217;&#233;rosion du d&#233;sir, puisque ce ph&#233;nom&#232;ne ne cr&#233;e pas de frustration imm&#233;diate. C&#8217;est d&#8217;ailleurs ce qui le rend si dangereux.</p><p>Il agit lentement :</p><p>* Moins d&#8217;&#233;lan</p><p>* Moins de prise de risque</p><p>* Moins de confrontation au r&#233;el</p><p>&#192; terme, ce n&#8217;est pas le temps perdu qui compte, mais le d&#233;sir qui s&#8217;&#233;rode.</p><p>Il faudrait donc reprendre le contr&#244;le sans diaboliser ? Oui, mais.  Il ne s&#8217;agit pas de rejeter l&#8217;IA ou les r&#233;seaux, simplement de r&#233;tablir une hi&#233;rarchie claire o&#249; l&#8217;exp&#233;rience doit pr&#233;c&#233;der sa mise en sc&#232;ne.  Qql exemples : </p><p><em>* Limiter les temps de consommation passive</em></p><p><em>* Transformer une projection en action r&#233;elle (m&#234;me minimale)</em></p><p><em>* R&#233;introduire du hasard, de l&#8217;impr&#233;vu, du viva</em>nt</p><p><strong>Conclusion</strong> : le luxe de rater</p><p></p><p>C&#8217;est d&#8217;accepter de rater une soir&#233;e, une rencontre, une opportunit&#233;, le diable s&#8217;habille en Prada 2 ( non &#231;a non.). </p><p>Parce que c&#8217;est pr&#233;cis&#233;ment ce manque qui cr&#233;e :</p><p>* du d&#233;sir</p><p>* du mouvement</p><p>* et, au fond, une vie r&#233;elle proche canap, et quelques miaous assoiff&#233;s qui ne pourront jamais (?) demander &#224; Claude une eau bien fraiche qui sort directement du robinet. </p><p>En 2021, il fallait absolument acheter un NFT sinon, on passait &#224; c&#244;t&#233; d'une r&#233;volution. Le m&#233;taverse, port&#233; par un boom entre octobre 2021 et mars 2022, s'est effondr&#233; avec la bulle des cryptomonnaies et des NFT. En novembre 2022, la Commission europ&#233;enne d&#233;boursait 387 000 euros pour un gala dans le m&#233;taverse cens&#233; s&#233;duire les 18-25 ans : cinq participants s'y sont connect&#233;s. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">En conclusion, la question n'est pas de savoir si les jeunes s'adapteront. Ils s'adaptent toujours &#8212; mieux que nous, plus vite que nous. La question, c'est &#224; quoi. &#192; la beaut&#233; naturelle, avec ses asym&#233;tries et ses tempos impossibles &#224; anticiper ? Ou &#224; une version augment&#233;e, liss&#233;e, comment&#233;e du r&#233;el, o&#249; m&#234;me le JOMO devient un contenu &#224; partager ?</p><p>Bises depuis mon canap&#233;, </p>]]></content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
