Gentle reminder that most disabled people can NOT leave the United States. Countries donโt want to take in disabled, chronically ill and โhigh cost health usersโ. There are serious financial barriers to moving - leaving most people behind.
Spare a thought for all of us tonight - people are scared. Then regroup and find a way forward โฆ we are stronger together.

turns we should even if they'd never pay for it.

There are no parts of the world that do not in some way rely on the US. ๐
Not that the world would collapse if we were gone, but hooooo boy would you notice.
Still paying for Spotify? Still driving a Tesla?
Still funding fascism.
BTW Tesla are gonna be useful to find all these enemies the fascists want to eliminate.
My alarm ringtone is "I got you babe". I started using it as a joke over groundhog day last year.
I think it's over.
Remember that DNA you gave to figure out your ancestry?
The fascists thank you for that.
Today is probably the right day to rewatch the best video essay ever made (IMO). Nothing stuck with me that much: Carlos Maza's "How to be Hopeless"

How To Be Hopeless
To everyone who fights the plague -- on the streets and in our minds. If this video meant something to you, I'd love to hear about it.PATREON: https://www.pa...YouTube
I'll summarize the story for you so you don't have to waste any precious moments of your life reading it: Privileged American couple move to France and find out that France has its own culture **AND LANGUAGE** that they refuse and/or are incapable of learning so they hate it.
This was on the landing page of CNN, just under the election dross. This story of intolerance and incompetence was deemed important enough to be on the landing page. Marked as "featured".
Oh my, this reads so incredibly absurd: in France they have bureaucracy, we do too but it's different because we know it, also no frozen yoghurt.
What the hell.
Imagine, when you move into a different country they speak a different language and do things in different ways.
I'm sure moving is not for everyone and people will miss things, but it sounds like they just wanted to have the same experience, at which point why bother moving.
Yesterday's news leads me to forecast the next big thing in SF/F genre fiction: the Cosy Dystopiaโa future or fantasy setting in which the backdrop is ghastly but the sympathetic protagonists are running a tea shop in the borderlands.
Think Warhammer 40,000 space marines, with added knitting. (Narrative focus STRONGLY on the knitting.)
Cinco apuntes sueltos:
1- Trump esta vez ganรณ el voto popular. Cortรณ fuertemente ventaja en lugares fuertemente demรณcratas. Eso se explica en parte por la insatisfacciรณn con Biden pero tambiรฉn porque la persona estadounidense promedio (igual que la persona promedio en todo el mundo) se parece mรกs a Trump que a Harris.
Esto que significa?
la persona estadounidense promedio (igual que la persona promedio en todo el mundo) se parece mรกs a Trump que a Harris.
La reelecciรณn de Trump es una mala noticia para los pueblos del mundo.
Representa el autoritarismo, el pisoteo institucional, el matonismo tabernario internacional y el desprecio a la clase trabajadora.
Y por otro lado, es garantรญa de privilegios a los ultrarricos y a los genocidas.
En Europa, el trumpismo traerรก aranceles y tensiones.
El debate que tenemos delante es si Europa asumirรก el rol de sumisiรณn para continuar con la agresiรณn genocida e imperialista en Ucrania, Oriente Prรณximo y Asia, o si replantearรก sus relaciones con EEUU para no pagar los platos rotos de su polรญtica exterior.
Por la parte que nos toca, es urgente deshacernos de la influencia estadounidense para que sus guerras no nos arrastren a la miseria y la barbarie.
Tenemos que explorar el nuevo horizonte de relaciones multilaterales que se abre en torno al BRICS para fortalecer unas relaciones internacionales de cooperaciรณn de y paz.

They don't have a big enough margin in the Senate to pass just anything. I don't know about the House, yet. They may stay as disorganized as they have been the last two years.
None of that is good... But hopefully it will be useful.
No matter what happens tonight,
or this year,
or in the next four yearsโฆ
the mountains stand
the moon and sun smile
the wind dances
the stars sing
the seasons change
the ocean murmurs

without the aid or consideration of men.
Yesterday, today, and tomorrow there are only three things you need to do. They have not changed and will never change.
1. Enjoy life.
2. Be someone you would love.
3. Make things better.
Every act, every word, every breath that is not one or more of these things is wasted. And there is not a single day in which you are not capable of all three.
btw, did YOU know that cookie names are case sensitive?
github.com/httpwg/http-extensiโฆ
RFC 6265bis: clarify that cookie names are case sensitive ยท Issue #2938 ยท httpwg/http-extensions
I think the spec would benefit from getting this fact explicitly specified. FooBar and foobar are two different cookies.GitHub
I actually assume that everything is case sensitive โฆ with the exception of mail addresses and domain names.
Filenames are often also not, but its safer to assume they are.
(I once formated a mac in HFS+ extended journaled case sensitve ... for FUN. Yeah, โฆ "fun" I had)

ยซ But, Nick, youโre not a US Citizen, this election doesnโt affect you ยป.
Do you know how shit the internet has become since Trump was elected the first time? Do you know how fast and far the quality of online interactions has dropped since that orange fascist opened the gates to let all the trolls from under the bridge?
Anyone who makes content that has even 2% of political notions (and FOSS is definitely political) will be confronted to more brainwashed maniacs and bigots.
Thatโs not even talking about how the US tends to reflect what happens in the rest of the world. All the crazy conspiracies and imbecilic notions that Trumpists have?
They also arrive in Europe about 3 to 5 years later. We have people fighting against ยซ woke ยป in France now, even though it was never a real thing in the US, and even less so in France.
We are already going down, fast. This will harm the entire world by ricochet. This election is a blow for humanity as a whole.
And if someone says ยซ but he won the popular vote ยป, I will scream.
Yes, thatโs the problem. The problem isnโt that this fringe dictator spewing conspiracies and lies every single time he speaks has SOME supporters.
The problem is that regular, normal people also were convinced by his crazy shit. Thatโs the problem. Normal people are now falling for this scam, again. More people now think this shit is fine. Preferable, even. Thatโs what difficult to swallow. Humanity is moronic.
Turkeys voting for Christmas.
The fallout will hit all of us. Probably literally.
