Report from the Amsterdam protest: there are a few hundred people here and two uniformed Dutch cops at a respectful distance very casually chatting with each other while they wait for nothing to hurry up and happen.

A lot of people are tourists (American or otherwise) who happened to see the protest because the US consulate is between several museums. They’re all like “hell yeah I’m stopping for this.” Passing bikes ring their bells (some of them might even be in support and not because Americans are standing on the bike path). I don’t know where someone in Amsterdam found an enormous California bear flag on such short notice

And yes, everyone loves Odin, who randomly decided to put his paws up on my shoulders when we were very visible to the crowd

I probably posted this before, and I do not care. This needs to be said as often as possible.

And we are ruining the environment doing this crap.
