Honestly, I love how the Canadians and other countries stand up to this mess. Lord knows our government isn't giving anybody any hope. It gives me hope that there are more people out there who care about others.

Hopefully, things won't have to be this way for too long.

Yeah, owning Greenland and Canada would create a monopoly on arctic waterways as well as increase difficult to reach minerals once his "drill baby drill" campaign melts the ice.

I think Virginia turned up about 450 people... I'm the middle of a Tuesday none the less!

Demonstrators across 50 states look to unify a disparate opposition to Trump and his sweeping agenda As Donald Trump prepares to address a joint session of Congress, protest groups are gathering at parks, statehouses and other public grounds to assail his presidency as dangerous and un-American.

Our Movement is becoming impossible to ignore!!

50 Protests. 50 States. 1 Movement.

They call it DEI because saying you are against Diversity, Equity and Inclusion sounds unamerican.

Capital One, who's in your wallet?

Love this energy!

Looking forward to another great PyCon!

Don't give them the win.

"Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked. A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do."

Yep. But given the past week (really past decade) of American politics, I'm not really trusting the current administration.

Granted, I'm only playing with Deepseek locally in a Docker container. Not intending to log into their site either.

I'm honestly more worried about what American companies are doing with my data than I am regarding Chinese companies and government.

The great orangsicle has proven to be a bigger threat to my community than any foreign adversary

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

We’re building a new static type checker for Python, from scratch, in Rust.

From a technical perspective, it’s probably our most ambitious project yet. We’re about 800 PRs deep!

11AM: How bad could the new administration be?

4PM: And Elon did that how many times?

Nothing like slimming down the government by creating two new departments.

Whelp, looks like America is officially back with its Ex. This never goes poorly, right?

Mad at Meta? Don't Let Them Collect and Monetize Your Personal Data If you’re fed up with Meta right now, you’re not alone. Meta tracks you across millions of websites and apps and its business model relies on your data. If you want to limit Meta’s ability to collect ...

Fed up with Meta? Avoiding Instagram or Facebook isn’t enough to stop Meta from harvesting and profiting from your private information. Here’s how to limit Meta’s ability to monetize your personal data.

I'm far more concerned about what Meta/FB/IG would do with my data and what propaganda they'd push than I am about China

The TikTok ban feels like controlling or censoring our media for political gain, which, ironically, is something China does. Ah the strategy of beating an enemy by becoming them

Maybe we'll get a few more earthquakes too!

Israel and Hamas reach a Gaza ceasefire agreement Israel and Hamas have reached an agreement on a multiphase ceasefire that commits them to end the war in Gaza, Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman James Risch said.

Adorable gray and white cat looking up at the camera

Think my friend will mind if I bring this little guy home for a while?

All of Henrico County under a boil water advisory Henrico County is under a boil water advisory effective immediately Wednesday afternoon.

Whelp, seems like Henrico has joined Richmond in the water problems 🥳 yay RVA

Let's just hope history somehow doesn't repeat itself

New doctor paperwork: "Have you ever had a problem with alcohol in the past? Y/N, Explain."

Nope, it was pretty easy to figure out!

Then I realized I'd be shocked if I was there for 6 hours. And now I'm wondering if I'll be productive BETWEEN the two appointments. (2/2)
