i just call it "amsterdam's country" because is it "Nederland", "Pays Bas", "Holland", "(The) Netherlands", "Kingdom of the Netherlands"? I have never heard anyone use ""Koninkrijk der Nederlanden" but I did find www.geonames.org/NL/other-nam...
Does anyone want to share a hotel room for CSSDay in AMS? I just booked a youth hostel, but I would rather share with one person I know than 11 whom I don't?
if you have an extra bed... I am getting in on the 10th at 16:00 and leaving on the 13th at 7:00. Thanks
Without years of DEI, we'd likely be witnessing only Beiberesque "me and a laptop" headliners.
We should be pushing for more DEI, not less, so traditional "shoe-ins" may be required to actually put some effort in, for which we will all benefit.
Thank God, or, rather, thank Black women, for DEI.
2018 saw the first Black woman headliner with the memorable Beychella.
Coachella took til 2026 to headline a Latina. And Karol G set the place on fire. Her set is the only set that can compare to Beyoncé's performance.
This week's best reminder that all DEI does is put a small dent in centuries of affirmative action for white men is Coachella: Over the years, white dudes have been the majority of Coachella's headliners.

a screenshot of the "New Bestsellers" list from Substack, with Andrew Tate in the #1 position
Hey, look at Substack promoting Andrew Tate as the #1 new bestseller. The company's amoral leadership & backers will platform anyone, even ludicrously toxic rapists & human traffickers.
It would be so funny if it weren't so sad. (Like just too many things these days).

They'd seen his race before
White was better, the crowd was sure
He was their king and the son of the Lord
I saw a film today, oh boy
The Fascists had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away
But I just had to look
Having read the book
I read the news today, oh boy
About a stupid man who destroyed the place
And though the news was rather sad
Well I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph
He threw out peace with a war
He didn't notice that his mind was depraved
A crowd of people clapped and cheered
People that provide capital shouldn't be allowed to say "I give money based on vibes only!" and then not give any money at all to Black women, and then say, "Black women have bad vibes! LOL!🤡"
No other part of our financial system could get away with the racist allocation that VC does every day.
instead of watching the new harry potter trailer, why not pick up some horror books by trans and nb writers for the trans rights readathon?? there are so many good options.
For example, check out some of these writers:
Trump knows Japan lost that war, right?
eventbrite invite featuring a photo of Beyonce flipping a double bird (Formation video screenshot). The event is a wake for the republic, which occurred on inauguration day.
It was a good memorial party, if a bit naive and early.
Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.
It's time to make some ball warmers, y'all.
Pull out the remnants of your pink pussy hat yarn and get knitting.
The blizzard of '78 was amazing.
The snow was taller than we were, and we got a week off from school, which we spent building snow tunnels and igloos.
White people thought they could stop this by just standing in the way while being white. Nah. You with us now. You’re expendable. They will have someone kneel on your neck until you perish. Then say it was your fault. Welcome.
Alright people -
We're wearing black all week.
If you have mandated work attire, such a color coded scrubs, put a black band on your badge or on your arm.
We owe it to Alex. 🖤
"ICE will leave Minnesota if you hand over your voter rolls" tells you everything you need to know.
This was never about immigration or fraud. It was always about rigging elections.
Lyon. I spoke the fewest languages (just 3). The guy from Mauritius I think spoke the most (7).
Yesterday evening, I hung out in a pub and spoke Spanish with two French women of Moroccan descent, then we switched to English when a man of Syrian descent and a man from Mauritius joined us. Then we switched to French when a woman from Jordan and a Spanish/Italian man joined us. I love it here!

Epstein and Trump's friendship ended after a bidding war on a Florida property. Trump won the bidding war, but Trump was infuriated.
The friendship ended.
Two weeks later, came the anonymous "tip" implicating Epstein.
Who do you think made that call?
Why has this never been investigated?
And I'll be honest:
It makes me happy,
To know that it makes racists unhappy,
To see Black people happy!
So make time for joy!
Someday corporations and technology companies will pretend they were always against this
