People observe a minute of silence for Gaza in front of a banner reading 'General strike for Palestine'. Called by all trade unions united, thousands of people take to the streets in Toulouse, France, on September 10, against Macron's economic policies after a day called 'Bloquons tout' (Block everything). It launches at the beginning of the summer on social networks against Macron's policies: downsizing the welfare state to cut taxes for businesses, increasing the Defense budget and Interior Ministry, and his choice of conservative Sebastien Lecornu as the new Prime Minister. His pro-business stance angers French people who blockade everywhere in France on September 10. A gathering and a march are authorized by the Prefect of Occitanie. The Prefect decides to forbid the gathering called by the CGT union and the march one and a half hours before the beginning. Riot police charge and clash violently with peaceful protesters and CGT unionists using tear gas and pepper spray in Toulouse, France, on October 2, 2025.

The Metalmark Moth (Brenthia sp.) is a tiny moth that belongs to the Choreutidae family. It has a flashy appearance and adopts a bold stance atop a leaf. The Metalmark Moth is known for its dynamic movements, including pouncing and pirouetting around its leafy ''dance floors.'' It also mimics the jumping spider, a predator. These small moths often feature metallic scales and are mostly active during the day (though some are also attracted to lights), exhibiting jerky, pivoting behavior. They may fluff up their wings at extreme angles. Some tropical species, such as those in the genus Saptha, are quite spectacular, with bright green metallic bands. The members of the genus Brenthia, often placed in their subfamily Brenthiinae, have eyespots on their wings and have been shown to mimic jumping spider predators effectively. A Metalmark Moth was observed sitting and ''dancing'' on a leaf, mimicking a jumping spider in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on April 1, 2024.
