A neuroscientist claims that eternal love belongs only to geniuses. Provocation, or clinical truth? This piece explores why duration, routine, and wear test every couple — and how, despite ourselves, every argument becomes a melodrama.

In this 1934 tango, Discépolo paints the portrait of a century where moral distinctions collapse: the thief is worth the honest man, the scholar worth the fool, everything jumbled together like items in a pawnshop window. A piece both disillusioned and fiercely lucid.

Proust and gender: this piece rereads the famous encounter between Charlus and Jupien — and the orchid scene that frames it — through the lens of Deleuze, Guattari, and Preciado. Between botanical allegory and a theory of desire, a look at what Proust invents, without naming it, about gender itself.
