It's a sunny voting day in Canada, which is good for a strong turnout.
I voted with the hope that the polls are right and good things can still happen for us in an increasingly gloomy world.

This is beautiful, and would be encouraging, but I see AfD going higher in the polls and it's alarming
Politico poll of popularity of German parties. AfD is at 22%, on a strong upward trend since December 2024 , when it was at about 18%

Your decision makes a lot of sense.
Have you considered replacing the Twitter icon on the list of platforms to share your content on with the Bluesky one? Or at least adding the Bluesky icon/link?

In a plane flying over a cotton blanket of clouds, I couldn't take my eyes off the neon bright sunrise, while thinking:
We have come so far in this stunningly beautiful world. But where are we headed?
