Anyone in #Brussels #Bruxelles want to host my partner and I next Wednesday (night of 17th) as we train it to my parents for Christmas?
heading to #offdem tomorrow. wouldn't mind if this was happening in a week from now instead of this week, but still pretty excited to be there and meet old and new friends.
Grateful to becha, who shared this on the #OFFDEM forum as a reply to a thread I wrote.

Billionaire money, although certainly long due for redistribution, should not be a way of passage downwards through the glass ceiling. They can look down upon us all they want, they’ll never be part of us, because what makes us, us, is not something that can be bought."
