Dear Hungarians, Your problems are DEFINITELY NOT caused by your corrupt political leaders, diverting funds so miserable hospitals stay miserable, and siding with a dictator in his atrocity-ridden invasion next door.
No, all your problems are because of LGBT folks. 🙄

Hungary deepened its repression of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people on March 18 as the parliament passed a draconian law that will outlaw Pride and similar events, thereby penalizing public support for LGBT people in the country.Human Rights Watch

My first Megaman Battle Network prop was a scaled-up Battle Chip for a friend's 30th birthday.
The body is made from layers of EVA foam and can hold any 4x6-inch photo. The nameplate is a plexiglass insert so you can write any names for any photos you want.
The "Recover 30 HP" photo was perfect for his birthday. Though it's been several years and he still hasn't swapped it out with any of the other photos... 😅

I just had a thought:
If the #USA actually _does_ invade #Canada , then #Tesla cars become valid military targets.
After all, ultimately they are controlled by #ElonMusk , who has already stated that "Canada is not a real country" and largely seems to support whatever inane thing #Trump wants to do.
And Tesla cars are already massive surveillance devices, and could probably be turned into autonomous #drones very easily with a few simple software updates by Tesla.
So... Canada (and #Greenland, etc.) should probably start banning these cars.
This is actually something I've been discussing with people from a risk and possibility perspective.
The current state of art allows Tesla's to target specific individuals for a kill. No new or more advanced technology needed. Just a single firmware update.
Second, the US administration has a tendency for making personal attacks and not caring much for the law.
So this is both technically feasible and it's a possible escalation of the direction they are heading in.
Can’t help but think of this scene… where all the Teslas block highway access.

This is how you do it:
Step 1: More than 100,000 protesters flood the streets of Serbia’s capital Belgrade.
Step 2: Unpopular Serbian leader Vucevic resigns.
Next stop Washington D. C.
Update: As pointed out by others, it is the president who is very unpopular in Serbia, but it is only the prime minister who is resigning, so the Serbs have not completed their mission yet.

Just finished @pluralistic's "Picks & Shovels." It is the fourth Marty Hench book, but it is also the first Marty Hench book, where we learn his origin story.
Every time I've finished one of the other books in the series, I've thought it was the best one. This one continues the run -- once again, the best Marty Hench book I've read.
I love this series. Highly recommended.

in reply to Frederic Jacobs • • •Given the increase in cases of people being detained in inhumane conditions by US customs and border protection, the advice of passing the US border, if you really **have to**, at a preclearance site sounds like a good idea.
At least at that point you’re in Ireland or Canada and not sent to an ICE facility for being held in chains or forced to take cold shower like recent reports have described.
