Hello my friends!

All the news say that we might be ordered to evacuate to the South during this month.

We want to stay but we are thinking what if we are forced to leave under fire.

The cost of evacution to the south is unbearable. The tent price is 800-1000$. The transportation price is 600$. The land rent for a tent is around 200$. Setting up a bathroom costs more than 200$.

Please don't leave us alone. Please donate via the link in the bio and share with friends.

Keir Starmer, on X, has said, about our national flag (unsure which one he specifically means), that "like lots of people, I proudly have one up at home"

I'd be asking the wrong crowd here whether they have a Union Flag, St George's Cross or any of the other national flags up at home, but I do wonder just how out of touch he is... I really hope YouGov (or similar) include this question in their next polling...

Farage and his grifting politics wouldn't exist if not for the BBC.

All three top stories on the BBC News app are about migration. The top story on #R4Today just now was also about migration.

Is this (as the #R4Today presenter has just claimed) the media reflecting the public’s interest, or is it in fact the public parroting back a media obsession?

Personally, I’m sick to death of this one issue crowding out everything else going on in the world. Repost if you agree.

I love SvelteKit! It's kinda like Next.js except not an absolute steaming pile of React

@ptesarik oh I agree, of course. But the claim that those pushing back against Trump with the tools of law are stupidly wasting our time - which dozens of people have smugly told me today - is simply wrong, and wildly counterproductive.

@PeterLudemann congress can pass laws that govern (federal) elections. But congress doesn’t run any actual elections. The states do that.

Just as congress can pass laws that govern restaurants, without actually running any restaurants itself. Restaurant owners do that.

Clear?

#men DO NOT STARE AT YOUNG GIRLS.

Had my 15 year old daughter in tears for last hour because she had a man on bus staring at her for a solid 10 minutes and she felt scared, humiliated, frozen, PHYSICALLY SICK.

'first time man stared at me so creepily I felt physically sick' is NOT a milestone ANY girl shoudl have to go through.

FUCKING STOP IT.

Just saw Solderpunk's announcement for this year's #ROOPHLOCH , the Remote Outdoor Off-grid Phlogging Challenge, which runs through September.

Finding it on a random read of kelbot's gemlog aggregator gave me yet another great example of why I love #GeminiProtocol and the #smolweb. The event is simultaneously whimsical, creative, and technical while being as simple or complicated as the participant wants to make it.

Find out more at...
