Some serious #cargobike going on in #Bordeaux. With so much pedestrianised space, it’s a great way to deliver. Amazing how the e-bike is transforming city deliveries. After three days, we rented e-bikes ourselves to explore the countryside 🍷🍷🍷

I just...

I never thought I'd live to see a day where trans people would be among the chosen honor guard for a pope's burial.

I was raised catholic. I despaired at the injustice of the church, and left it when I was still a child.

It hits in a way I never expected. 😭

A Trump goon wrote the Wikimedia Foundation demanding that they answer a bunch of questions by May 15th. The same guy sent thinly justified legal threats to a bunch of medical journals.

The entire medical community must reject this and call for the resignation of Robert F. Kennedy, just as universities came together and condemned Trump's attack on Harvard.

The good news: they're starting to do this! One of the top medical journals in the world, The Lancet, writes:

"Calls for Kennedy's resignation are growing. The Executive Director of the American Public Health Association, Georges Benjamin, called for Kennedy's resignation or removal on April 9. The Treatment Action Group and Doctors for America have also called for him to go. Given Kennedy's support for the gutting of the NIH, CDC, and FDA, alongside his espousal of unscientific treatments and theories, The Lancet joins Benjamin's call for Kennedy's resignation."

"Medical journals should not expect to be spared by the Trump administration's attack on science, nor should health institutions such as the NIH, the CDC, or academic medical centres.
Science and medicine in the USA are being violently dismembered while the world watches. While the risks to civil servants and academics’ livelihoods are real and understandably frightening, bullies are only emboldened by acquiescence or indifference."

The last sentence is key.

All the different communities under attack - universities, lawyers, doctors, scientists, businesses being crushed by tariffs, Wikipedia users, in fact all of us - should organize in solidarity and stand up to the authoritarian regime. Trump *does* back down when enough pressure is applied.
