For clarity, I'm in favour of changing the terminology to highlight the historical injustice.

I just thought it's important to admit that it's a recent change of linguistic preferences even in the most official Greek publications. Indeed, up to the last couple of years, the adjectival "Elgin" was used in Greek as an accusation of theft, not a recognition of ownership.

Yes, but in the absence of other factors, "cold tolerance" is something that can change by habituation.

There's a rather considerable current of leftism that is libertarian. Over-regulation of what a person can do, especially with something as, well, personal as appearance, is at odds with left-libertarian values.

Left-authoritarianism is of course compatible with such regulations.

It honestly feels like a very high price to pay for the sake of rapid expansion. It doesn't feel appropriate to remove the unanimity rule before the EU becomes a true union of federated states. The usual Polish existential populist rhetoric notwithstanding, it is the wrong approach to European integration (broken clocks occasionally being right, etc). At this point, for me it's enough to reject this report.

For fairness: It is positive that the report suggests giving the right of initiative to the Parliament. The plan for the Commission is also an improvement although it sounds a bit confused.

Given that the article is not about the UK, I don't see a good reason to reach for a UK-specific definition.

At the face of it, it seems plausible to me that cargo bikes do not offer the capacity needed to guarantee same-day delivery to all of those who currently use such services.

I can give it a shot, certainly. One of the main contributors behind it is in my RSS reader so there's some name recognition there. Future pricing is not final though, so I can't budget for it before committing.

It might not be a solution for everyone, but you can self host a git repository on your static site!

I like the concept and the aesthetics, but I guess you still need to run a git server?

Ich muss zugeben, dass in letzter Zeit habe ich als schwuler Mann in Berlin begonnen, mich nicht mehr wohl zu fühlen. Jetzt gibt es sogar einige Nazis, die an den Straßenecken schimpfen und schreien.

You don’t like a product? You don’t buy it for you or for your kids as long as you materially provide for them.

It's not as simple. As we see from the US (but also to a tamer extend in some EU regions including in the bible-belts of western member states), even if the "market freedom" argument is established and there's no doubt about the right to sell children's literature with queer characters, those "concerned parents" move the goalpost to the school system (assigned reading in language classes) and libraries.

The argument that must be had is not about free markets, but about a child's inalienable right to develop their personality outside the control of their parents. The statement "children do not belong to their parents" remains a controversial one. In one country I am familiar with, "our children belong to us, so the school does not have a right to talk to them about things we do not approve" is now being used against the introduction of (straight-only) sex education.

It's more crucial to have a discussion about whether all children should have the right to read children's literature with queer themes, not only the children of parents who do not oppose the idea.
