Perhaps today is a good day to remind everyone...
This is our world, it is where our families live, it is where we make our communities, it is where we love our families, it is where we speak our truth, it is where we have our future... it is not someone's to take, bend and destroy.

So my #introduction to #Mastodon has been a good one. People actually welcoming each other. Makes a change from the #hatred that was filling my feed on the network owned by the emperor Zorg.
This is how bad london has become.
Teenage girls beat an old man to death.
This is what happens when manhating is glorified and bad parents don't discipline their kids with punishments properly.

In all of my life I have never seen anyone hate their own country the way that trump does.

Today’s meeting gave the lie to any claim that this administration’s policy is driven by any strategic effort to advance the interests of the #UnitedStates, however misguided. #Trump and #Vance displayed in the #OvalOffice a highly personal #hatred (towards #Zelenskyy). There was no effort here to make a case for American interests.
Commendations, cash awards, positive reviews. Then they were fired for poor #performance.

This is True - #ElonMusk ordered #email sent all 2.3 million #government workers over the weekend directing them to respond with five bullet points detailing what they accomplished last week, chaos and confusion reigned.

At least 200,000 protesters rally in Munich against #FarRight #AfD ahead of German election
February 8, 2025
MUNICH, Germany (AP) — "More than 200,000 protesters rallied in Munich, Germany, on Saturday against #FarRightExtremism ahead of the country’s #GeneralElection.
"The far-right, #AntiImmigrant #AlternativeForGermany, or AfD, is in second place in recent polls and has prompted widespread protests across the country before voters cast their ballots on #February23.
"The protest at Munich’s Theresienwiese — where Oktoberfest takes place each year — brought a significantly larger crowd than expected, according to the German dpa news agency. The event’s organizer estimated the crowd could be up to 320,000 people, many of whom carried signs against the AfD with slogans like, '#Racism and #hatred is not an alternative.'
"The protest was supported by #ActivistGroups as well as the #MunichFilmFestival, #churches and Munich soccer clubs FC Bayern and TSV 1860, among others. Police told dpa that the demonstration was peaceful.

"Similar #protests attracted large crowds on Saturday in #HanoverGermany, #RostockGermany, and elsewhere in Germany, mirroring other demonstrations that have occurred across the country in recent weeks."

What truly unsettles me is how eager people are to let me know what they think of me, even when our interaction is nothing more than a passing glance. It’s as if my existence alone is an invitation for their judgment.
