Thinking about the dark chapter that lays before all of us as Trump begins his second term. I still cannot believe that he has condemned so many innocent people to a life of fear and potential violence. If you do not accept and recognise gender dysphoria, then you fail to recognise the humanity in yourself and others.
Who will fall under his gaze next? The rest of the LGBTQ community. On this side of the pond our government are clamping down on the elderly, impoverished families, disabled people, people out of work and true socialists who speak their mind or disagree with their leader. Add into this mix, the Trilateral Commission, Larry Fink, BlackRock and Musk; what could possibly go wrong?

"These findings highlight the innate potential of E171 to induce ROS and the need to consider GI digestion and food matrices in the hazard identification/characterization and risk assessment of E171."

People in Gaza are shocked by the scale of the destruction. They did not imagine that complete neighbourhoods have been wiped out.

But it is not only that. The houses that are still standing are either burnt or unlivable.

And there is another thing that needs to be pointed out. There are a lot of explosives left in some areas. That is why it is very dangerous for people to approach their houses at this stage.

One of those "difficult to get the colour right"-yarns (#LITLG in "Deep Coral") and bad light on a wintry morning in Northern Germany - but I'm quite happy with this sock so far.

Pattern is *Yttygran Socks* by Anna Zhuravleva from last year's Sock Madness. I really like the Strong heel, it's a simple and non-fiddly heel. The twisted-stitches pattern only extends to ~16 stitches on the front, astonishingly easy work for a great effect. Work smarter, not harder ;)

Love the 4th photo with reflections on the right side. I love capturing reflections myself.

Symboliquement, 26 participant·es traverseront 26 villes en France, avant un rassemblement à Strasbourg le 15 février, date marquant l'arrestation d'Öcalan en 1999 à la suite d'une conspiration internationale.
