From what I read online and see in the news here, Canada seems to have a "ow yeah, bring it on, we'll kick your ass" mentality (might sound cooler than I intended but hey, maybe it really is like that!)
there is no force that could stop us
... yet! I have some hope in the EU becoming stronger together and try to do something against it. I don't know what, but something...
They just made my gender illegal to put on a passport
So TECHNICALLY they can't do you harm either... No passport no way of punishing you (I know they can, but I'm just trying to lighten the mood a little bit. Humor as coping mechanism and all that)
You get used to it when you live here, trust me. Only once a week, as is tradition!
My grandparents finally saw the house I bought with my gf and we had a wonderful afternoon with coffee, cake and lots of talking
Belgium strong! Can't wait to show this to all negative right-wing extremists (when I have the mental space to do so because they're really exhausting)
"Your local Luigi", I love this expression!
Online communications for an organisation that focuses on local youths. Everything they organise, do, etc... we offer them a platform and also acts as a link between them and the local politicians. Since we're an online platform, it's a very important job (or so it feels) but it's not always easy to explain. So most of the times I just describe it as: "I post a lot of things on social media and our website as well as writing a newsletter, plus I go to a lot of events"
Trying to ditch all meta/big tech apps, tho, but almost impossible with this job. We rely on Instagram and TikTok a lot (our target audience is 16-30)... That's definitely a downside. Looking to expand to fediverse as well, but it's a slow process
I quite like them tbh! very laidback feeling while in the drops as well. only used them brakeless tho, so will see what it does with the levers mounted
Imagine the bike snobs back in the day: "this corset saves 3 watts!" "fellas, do you wear your monocle chain over or under your bowtie?"
right! i was half asleep and not thinking that well anymore...
oh, valid... but stay strong! we'll all get through it one way or another
