It stands for unity, freedom, peace, democracy, equality, civilization, diversity, rule of law, science, beauty, and strength.
There is nothing more important to fight for.

my great-grandparents arrived in the UK in the 1890s with nothing.
they sold pickles from the front room window, took in laundry, worked as tailors.
their children were nurses, teachers, salesmen.
their grandchildren were professors, designers, opticians, doctors, magistrates, entrepreneurs.

Since this post, nearly 300 of you donated about $11k and I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart. The union shared photos with me today of food being distributed. Remaining money will be evenly distributed among the 160 union members in the form of gift cards. Thank you. ❤️

Ich träum' ja immer noch vom Winterschlaf bei vollem Lohnausgleich. Heute würde ich mich mit einem Mittagschlaf begnügen. Die Nacht war arg kurz, erzähl' mir nochmal ein Experte, der Vollmond habe keinen Einfluss auf meinen Schlaf.

Data centres are energy hungry but what if we could use their waste heat to heat our homes?
That's exactly what happens in places like Finland: Cities are tapping the vast amounts of waste heat generated by data centres, and feeding it into district-heating networks.

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"
