@virtualbri Like the whole world has already been doing for multiple decades? Like founding new economic blocks that doesn't depend on the USD? The EU needs a wake-up call though.

@inanimatecarbongod It wasn't just her policy that put people off, but her attitude towards people on this issue. Sadly she made this in a red line for many, and if she was a better politician she could've (and for goodness sake she should have) put a better spin on it when confronted on this issue.

I've seen some posts about laying low and blending in, and /s or not, FUCK that!

If I'm being ushered into a fascist dictatorship, I'm swinging at Nazis until I get put down. I have a queer kid, a lovely trans girlfriend, and a shitload of friends worth fighting for.

Be loud, be visible, be ungovernable.

@LALegault Maybe he's new here... oh wait.

Wow it's like 5 minutes and already want to puke at this "piece of work".

@juliank Not to nitpick but surely it's an orange clown.

@LALegault Well according to AP it's more like 214 v 248 now.

@LALegault You and everyone else. She handed the election to Trump. The margins between literally *anyone* else and Trump could easily have been *huge*. The democrats were willing to hand over the election to Trump because of Israel. It's insane.

@robdaemon I try not to, and yet they find a way to 1-up expectations.

@LALegault You mean the same less than a dozen or so billionaires who are basically ru(i)nning the world?

@LALegault Didn't he promise him a title like "Minister of efficiency" or something to that effect?

@dosnostalgic I didn't know the exact timings, but always new it was there

Ah yes the times we live in.

@LALegault I was there, I was 8 years old when Apartheid ended and 12 years old when Nelson Mandela was elected as president. That era and everything that happened since and before then had huge impacts on all South Africans, which is why it saddens so many of us to see history repeated in so many regions of the world.

Cynicism is easy. It asks nothing of you or the world. Cynicism delights in despair.

Hope is brave. Hope takes work. Hope makes you take responsibility for doing your part, however small, to steer the world toward where it should be.

Do something brave. Have hope. And then do your part.

@LALegault It's the US. Basically everyone is holding guns to each other heads in an act of mutual self-destruction and mutual shaming. None of them care about human rights its just about enriching themselves in the short term at the cost of literally everyone else.

I didn't mean to say that your former president should be hauling garbage, I meant to say that he should be hauled away AS garbage.

@ApaulD @oerum Alt text: THIS BLOWS MY MIND
EVERY SINGLE DAY:
THAT A HANDFUL OF OLD
WHITE MEN HOLD THE FATE
OF HUMANKIND IN THEIR
HANDS. AND THEY REFUSE
TO ACT BECAUSE THEY ARE
AFRAID OF LOSING
THEIR MONEY.
IT'S A LOUSY REASON
FOR A PLANET TO DIE.

As maintainer of OSS Python scientific libraries, I'm seeing more users sharing screenshots of their error messages instead of copying and pasting them as text. I'm not sure why that's happening. But here's an advice:

Please, share plain text!

Because:
* Text is lightweight to send and store.
* Text is accessible: not all of us can see images.
* Text is easily parseable: I can search through it, copy it, paste it, quote it, reuse it.
