🚨 URGENT REQUEST - PLEASE BOOST 🚨
I'm looking for names and/or connections of any academics, independent researchers, or prominent figures *anywhere*, but *especially* in #Canada who have at least *some* connection to *any* fields related to:
- #Genocide (in general)
- #Trans Genocide
- #Geopolitics as they relate to trans people
I've been asked to lead a significant and urgent project related to the present crisis, and I've dropped all other tasks to support this. I wish I could provide more details publicly, but these details will have to follow.
- Feel free to either post or DM me names/info or to connect

I found #BlackHistoryCanada empty in my corner of fedi, so let's address that! I'm going to share something from this 2020 playlist on black history in Canada.

In 2018, Viola Desmond was chosen for display on Canada's $10 bill to honour her legacy, particularly her refusal to participate in racial segregation (thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/…).
Less well known is Carrie Best who, 5 years ahead of Viola, began a legal challenge of racial segregation in Canada by sitting with her son in the Whites-only section of the same theatre (thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/…).

if nothing else, I suspect some level of activity resembling Alex garland's film “Civil War” or Charles Sheehan-Miles' unfinished "America's Future" trilogy.
America as we know it will fall.
Make sure you are practicing emotional self-regulation.
Notice what you are feeling, let yourself feel it when you can, and focus on the experience of the emotion moving through you. Most surges of emotion last about 30-90 seconds when we meet them fully and allow them to be felt.
If you're in an emotional spiral, there are many tools to interrupt the cycle. Look up grounding techniques and choose 2-3 to practice often.
Do not stay in an anxious, activated mode for long.
Apologies for the subtoot, but:
No, your nickname doesn't make them angry. They don't care.
No, they don't hate that photo that you're sharing. They don't care.
Use the nicknames and share the photos if it makes you feel better.
But please stop pretending it has any effect on these people or affects any change of hearts or minds.
I'm also surprised at how many people are using statements like "the next four years..." Even after the last two weeks.
I'm sorry but you are somehow still vastly underestimating the situation if you think this ends in four years.
If you're waiting for another election, you're already too late.
I'm not saying it's hopeless.
I'm saying this isn't going to end without a fight. A difficult and sustained fight.

VPNs Are Not a Solution to Age Verification Laws
VPNs are having a moment. On January 1st, Florida joined 18 other states in implementing an age verification law that burdens Floridians' access to sites that host adult content, including pornography websites like Pornhub.Electronic Frontier Foundation
Festnahmen bei Protesten gegen Regierung in Georgien
Bei erneuten Demonstrationen gegen die Regierung sind in Georgien mehrere Menschen festgenommen worden. Unter ihnen sind auch zwei bekannte Oppositionsführer.
With Trump and Musk dismantling load-bearing structures of the federal government, the liberal argument that we cannot live without those structures is no longer relevant. We have to, whether we like it or not. We may as well work for autonomous regions on the model of AANES or the Zapatistas, because how else will we survive?
I think it's classic shock and awe en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sh…
combined with a recognition that they only have two years tops to accomplish whatever they're after (the system will react in force by then and slow them down)
combined with misdirection: they create chaos over here, everyone (including us) stares at it, and they go do what they really want to do over there where no one's looking.
combined with Trump and Musk both being narcissists who need people talking about them 24/7.
To me it makes perfect sense.

Wart ihr schon mal im #Planetarium? Meine Mutter ist Astronomin/Astrophysikerin und hat die Sternkarten für die Zeiss-Planetarien gemacht.
Dazu musste berechnet werden, wie ein Sternbild am Standort eines neu gebauten Planetariums aussieht.
Das Planetarium in der Prenzlauer Allee steht jetzt unter Denkmalschutz.

Das Zeiss-Großplanetarium steht seit Januar unter Denkmalschutz. Die Kuppelhöhe folgte politischen Vorgaben im Kalten Krieg, unten drunter verbarg sich modernste TechnikAndreas Hergeth (taz)
We should not be watching the slow motion train wreck unfolding unchallenged in D.C. The fact people are confused and frightened is proof positive the Democratic party is non-functional as a political party. They should have had a coordinated response prepared long ago that they'd be deploying systenatcially now. We wouldn't be confused because they'd be making clear what they intend to do about this. That is the very least you could expect from a national party, and the fact that they've failed to do even this much means the party is defunct. I see a party that's phoning it in. They have no verve, no sense of urgency, no care for their constituents, and apparently no capacity to strategize.
Would love to be proven wrong.
