is there anyone in my bubble of fedi who can put a friend of mine in touch with a New Zealand trucking company that's hiring immigrants?
she currently holds a US CDL with hazmat and doubles certification, so she should qualify for anything
Remember, France is already governed by fascists, and Canada is just an election away from this.
This all because people vote against their interests.

Ale jinak to docela šlo. Panel na rádio, nikde nešel sehnat, tak jsem ho vyřezal ze dřeva a natřel na černo 😀😀 Je pravda, že moc holek, jsem na to neulovil.

Jo to byly jízdy v zimě, kosa v autě a já mu celou cestu škrábal okno, aby viděl 😂😂

To ti řeknu, když jsem poprvé seděl v jedničkové Octavii s klimatizací, jsem byl jak v jiném světě 😀

Ale 100vka byla naše druhé auto, předtím 6V Trabant (prosím ne 6 válců ale voltů). Táta měl ještě za svobodná Octavii co prý měla ještě části ze dřeva, v té mě vezl z porodnice.
Toronto breaks 65-year-old temperature record on Tuesday

community spaces. solidarity networks. free clinics. mutual aid. community kitchens. community clothes closets. solidarity funds. give-away shops. filesharing. community servers. tenant unions. sit-ins. disobedience.
humans are a communal species. we thrive when we're together.
building a healthy community is more radical and more effective than anything else you can do. never forget that.
Mam takovou kacířskou myšlenku.
Ještě pořád si myslíte, že ti normální jsme my?
Jako já vím, že se snažíme prosazovat bezpečnost, lidské hodnoty, spravedlnost… Ale zatím to vypadá, že většina světa si přeje něco jiného a za normální považuje věci, které jsou pro nás přes čáru. A není to najednou JEN Maďarsko, jen Slovensko, jen Amerika.
Takže otázka zní, nejsme MY ta zmatená menšina bez vztahu k realitě?

Note to USA folks, ❗trans folks especially❗.
A passport is:
- Fundamentally useful
- A federal ID
- Recognized in most state/local level contexts
- *You can change your gender marker on it through pure self ID, with nothing medical required*. "X" is an option. travel.state.gov/content/trave…
- Normally 4-6 weeks to process (faster if u pay extra); that means if you apply for one this week, you easily get it before Jan 20.
- Lasts 10 years
Perhaps apply for one (or renew it, to reset yr 10 years) soon.

Categorically insulting all of America for what happened yesterday is toxic behavior, and any of those engaging in it now should be ashamed of themselves. Some of our votes don't count because of the electoral college. Some of us are disabled or otherwise struggling and can't afford to move to places where it might, or can't move for other reasons. Some of us don't just show up and virtue signal at the polls every 4 years--we're actively fighting for marginalized folks the rest of the time as well. Some of us actively have our votes and voices taken away. I could go on and on and on and on and on.
You want to grieve with us or insult leadership, or even criticize the ones who voted for that fascist asshat? Fine. But tell us all we chose this, paint us all with one brush, and shame on you, and I hope for your sake no one kicks you the next time you have occasion to feel grief and hopelessness despite your efforts to change course. And when you do grieve, I hope you remember this moment and these words, and that someone might have kicked you when you were down too but didn't.
And anyone who says "it's fine, we're just being hyperbolic" can go fuck their hyperbolicism, and themselves for that matter, with a rusty nail. That's all my social media contribution for the day, thanks for joining me on my journey of self-expression.

We are fucked as a democratic nation.
And now Ukraine is fucked and so is Gaza.
The whole planet is fucked. I wish this was hyperbole, but it's not.

2. Lots of people have already found and asked me about the Casio fx-180P calculator on the table behind me 😀 (no, I don't use it)
Semifun fact:
My seventeen years old son forgot his calculator with his mum, and is at this very moment using my fx-180P during his physics test today.

OK, my one and only political post as it honestly doesn't engage me.
Am I alone in thinking it's really messed up to allow a convicted criminal to even run for presidency, let alone be able to take office.
What kind of message does that send out?
There's probably some merit in the idea of the government we deserve.
We brexited. They've done a double donald.
I wonder what the world'll look like in a few years.
Don’t expect Chrome to support keyboard-operable scrolling regions until (maybe) version 132 (anchor link):

Only 14 versions past its target release!

It's very disheartening to see so many already panic and talk of leaving a country when there's zero reason to worry until and if we reach any of those moments.

Many years ago, around 1990, I was in a bus with a friend, discussing UNIX process management. After a while I realized the other passengers were looking at us in a very worried way.
Don't talk about parents outliving their children, or killing their children, without saying you're talking about processes.

Now that it's no longer possible to rank in web searches, unless you're a content farm or a major publisher, it's a good time to ditch SEO, drop keywords, use descriptive headlines instead of catchy or clickbait ones, and write for humans. SEO won't help anyway, so let's help the readers who care.
