À atenção do Presidente Seguro, com saudações do voto progressista que também o levou a Belém.
"Seria importante que PR afirme que é uma obrigação do Estado português içar a bandeira da diversidade, da dignidade e da segurança das pessoas LGBT+."

This is your periodic, friendly reminder that, to avoid harmful environmental effects, total artificial light emissions should not exceed ecologically safe limits... Nature doesn't care whether the light emitted is "useful" or "necessary" for humans. arxiv.org/abs/2503.02724
