@georgetakei And don't forget to take all of those Tile/Life360/AirTag things off of your person before you go. I have little doubt the fascists will be asking for your location data sooner or later, looking for people who attended.
@georgetakei Today I taught French to third-graders. We talked about #democracy in France and why it is not a kingdom any more nor a #dictatorship They understood the concept of #king very well, why it is bad. But struggled understanding the difference to #dictators. I insisted "yes kids, you're right it is like a king… but in modern days." I explained nuances, but kids are smart, they totally saw through it. #Caesar in Ancient Rome could not say the bad word king, he was a princeps … same shit
@georgetakei follow that thought! how about no presidents either?
@breadwizard @georgetakei Switzerland has no president nor any head of state. They are fine with it (✿^‿^)
@georgetakei You better fight back! Otherwise, the king you'll have will be a French king and not a British king! 😂
@georgetakei
I probably would go but I feel like the organizers in my city have botched this one by having it in a poor location. Usually we are downtown in front of city hall. This time it will be in a park away from traffic. They do say that they will march to downtown but I don't think I am up for that. But I will be supporting them anyway.
@georgetakei French people invented a device for this ...
