You might know me from NASA/GSFC, synagogue, science fiction conventions, or playing ukulele. I am an avid collector of craft supplies, and occasionally get around to using them.

Pins on a backpack saying "Celebrate Diversity", "I will do my best to stop any bigot who messes with you", "Straight but not narrow", and the electrical symbol for resistor.

Pins on a backpack saying "Celebrate Diversity", "I will do my best to stop any bigot who messes with you", "Straight but not narrow", and the electrical symbol for resistor.

A friend suggested that I remove the "Celebrate Diversity" pin from my backpack, so I wouldn't become a target.

I replied "Absolutely not!"

Because:
- I will not comply in advance.
- We still have freedom of speech.
- Evil triumphs when good people do nothing.

Even nerdier: not having to look it up. Okay, I know only that folklore is in the 100s, but still.
