Take the language, take the land, erase the culture, erase the people.
Colonialism turns all things to dust, and those who oppose it are called terrorists.
I used to think my own sight was bad enough. I get little tiny Starbursts around lights. And I mean tiny. This dot - • - would look like the same dot with a / plastered on top.
Finding out the OP picture is how my wife sees the world at night was a little mind blowing. I knew it could get bad, but damn.

We have differing opinions on "reasonable"
Well you're definitely not going to get there if you spend all day explaining infinity to people.
The journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step.
.... Well, better get to walking.
Fertility rituals.
Sorry Gerald, that "Smooth sided fertility statue" isn't a ritual object, it's a dildo.
we would probably still have the same ones. I’m pretty sure modern solar panels are much more efficient.
Hardly the point. Even if you blanketed the white house grounds with panels, it's not putting a dent in overall power usage for the area.
It is, however, a very visible signal, "we value renewables, science, and intelligence" that shows progress away from the old world, and that scares a lot of old white people.
I swear I read this exact comment about the UK after brexit...
Good call.
I have a few LGBT friends who come over for range time, away from the type of people who normally frequent the public ranges around here. We have a loose plan of action if they need somewhere to hide, and low profile tents and 3-day packs are on standby for a couple close friends. Funds are tight, otherwise I'd be making sure there's a tent, sleeping bag, and 3 day survival pack for all of them, their partners, and their friends.
I have been told my entire life that I am "overreacting" because "that will never happen/you'll never need that", and in nearly every instance, it's been simply a matter of time.
I can very easily present myself as someone very far down the "first they came for" list, but I'll be cold and buried before I disguise myself and let the people further up fend for themselves.
While I'm not expecting death squads to be roaming the street this year, I'm also not going to wait for it to happen before I begin preparing.
If I can't directly shelter people in need, I'm damn sure going to get them heading in the right direction, with the knowledge they need, and with more than just the clothes on their back.
Make friends with your neighbors and watch each others backs.
My neighbors fully support government sponsored death squads that get to go around indescriminate lynchings of LGBT and POC.
Lucky for me, the closest one is about 1/4mile away.
