Ohhhh, great. Since Trump's popularity keeps plummeting due to own aggressive incompetence and now after a plethora of abortive tactics not even the old popularity-trick of starting a war to raise cohesion and justify repression worked, now Trump resumes Red Scare III by reportedly planning to host an international summit to vilify and persecute antifascists and very likely all leftists by wantonly misapplying "antifa" against anyone politically to the left of Ronald Reagan.

This is a part of the same distraction strategy attempts as the UFO-files and similar nonsense, to try to get the people to forget that they can't afford food on their table and their best friend was deported to be tortured somewhere neither had been, etc all directly solely due to Trump's personal proudly announced devastating decisions. Things that are actual threats. Then now trying to redefine the cure against those threats and more as if the cure is the bogyman.

Oh, at last a open 2D printer! I've been waiting for this. If it's successful, It'll be the last printer I buy.

Woke up to no coffee in the house. Will pick up more from a shop that sells coffee grown nearby, but first cup of morning needed a fix. Luckily my home grown coffee is ripe and beans from one of the plants are already drying. Roasted some, crushed using mortar and pestel (oh the fragrance while pounding the roasted seeds!) and finally now sitting with a cup that is making me very happy :)

There's a lot of people who had abhorrent opinions they have had to walk back in the years since October 7th. And I'm quite sure most of them would prefer I forgot those opinions now that the concensus in the popular discourse is "actually supporting a genocide is really fucking gross."

I don't tho.

Vancouver Island marmots will soon come out of hibernation. Some colonies are located on ski hills so they close the ski resort for a few weeks in April.
This marmot is endemic to Vancouver Island. It's an endangered species that is making a remarquable recovery thanks to marmots.org

The vast majority of people who will be impacted by trans bans in sports will be little girls with short hair or arms that are "too muscular."

It will also mean that when a woman is good at her sport the disgusting grumbling and whispering about "may she is he" gets taken more seriously.

This happened with Paula Radcliffe for running marathons too fast. If it helps you to think of a white cis woman being the victim of this.

Of course little black girls will take the brunt of this. As ever.
