In this special year, let's reflect: How can we incorporate cooperative values of democracy, equity, equality, and solidarity into our organizations and communities?
Cooperatives are not just businesses! They are social transformation movements that prove another economic model is possible.

From agricultural co-ops connecting local producers, to financial co-ops democratizing access to credit, to housing co-ops opening paths to homeownership, to worker cooperative associations (like us!) providing services and solutions to community and peers, cooperatives are building a better world.

Why do cooperatives matter more than ever?
They democratize the economy, redistributing power and creating shared prosperity.
They drive sustainability, prioritizing people, planet, and purpose over pure profit.
They strengthen communities through local investment and sustainable development.

does anyone have the feeling of: the more senior you get the more you’re sure you should never give a talk on anything you have done well because all doing the thing has revealed is that you know a lot less than you thought you did about the subject (as a consequence of learning about it)

The fact that these protest signs can be translated and used in a completely different hemisphere from where they were originally created speaks to the scale of the problem
The 1st one says: "Make being a fascist shameful again"
The 2nd one says: "Being a son of a bitch needs to stop being trendy"

This guy rejected the idea of being a King with unlimited powers, even when it was granted.
Read history books, protect their legacy, condemn what is wrong and encourage what is good.
Our continent has a nice tradition to kick out monarchs from our territory. Embrace tradition.

What a pain in the ass is to transfer data from RPG sourcebooks to VTT software.
It is 2025, publishers should be giving the datasets with the sourcebooks or at least collaborate with VTT developers.
I spent the last week running scripts to migrate a big sourcebook from an UK publisher.

After almost a year in Chicago I got my lib card last weekend. I almost cried. I came from Buenos Aires, a top 3 city with more bookstores in the world, but not so many public libraries
This is something to be proud of and should be something to stand for more. We need more libraries in the south
