L'investiture de Donald Trump n'est pas qu'une perspective terrifiante pour les Etats-Unis.
Ça l'est aussi pour :
- l'Europe
- la lutte contre le changement climatique
- la paix dans le monde
- les migrants
- les femmes
- les minorités de genre et les personnes LGBTQIA+

Merry Christmas, goats!
Every year, an acquaintance texts us sometime in January and asks if we want their Christmas tree for the goats. The goats love the little change in diet so much that they even came out (briefly) in the -40 windchill to sample, before going back to snuggle in the straw in the barn.

At this year's #FOSDEM my team at #wolfSSL got no booth space so my large volume #curl sticker distribution (LVCSD) has to be done using other means.
The LVCSD will most likely happen in the cafeteria area, but feel free to ping me if you can't get your fix as planned.
I will bring thousands of curl stickers and hundreds of coasters. There will be a few mugs and maybe some tshirts.

Tomorrow will be a dark day for many.
For disabled, marginalized, LGBTQ+ folks & women. For anyone who still cares about others
The disability community saw this coming. It’s important we listen & understand that labelling people as expendable for 5 years leads nowhere good
Since November we’ve watched hate win over and over again.
We’ve witnessed the emboldening of those who think they’re superior to others.
We’ve seen an increase in misogyny, bigotry, ableism, racism & discrimination.
Disabled people begged the Left to pay attention. We begged you to keep masking, to push for clean air, to demand accountability from government.
We implored you to realize that our lives are not less important than your ability to go out for brunch.
Unfortunately, the vast majority of people on both sides of the aisle decided that mitigating COVID was “too hard.”
They accepted repeat infections as inevitable so they wouldn’t have to adapt their lives in any way.
They threw away people like me.
We let hate win. And now we’re going to see the consequences of that decision.
Disabled people weren’t surprised in November, we’ve been living in what feels like an alternate reality for years.
But I suspect others are about to feel our pain.
If you’re feeling scared or angry right now, know that you’re not alone. There’s a community standing with you.
I don’t know exactly what comes next, but I do know we have to keep up the fight.
