They have described feeling #SociallyExcluded & say husbands & partners also need to take up caring duties.

Habiba, whose son is #autistic, said: "It's really #isolating & stressful as there is often #gaslighting & #UnsolicitedAdvice which can lead to feeling very lonely."

Such tell us of daily life of the bygone era

Well, i've tried to make a case for politically correct #inclusion and #wellbeing, but i got shut down rather rudely with an unsophisticated troll-ish post, on #GitHub.

See: #issue13082 https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/13082

Why does (some) #FLOSS - Free, as in #Libre, #OpenSource #Software, need a #Christian bias?

Why is it "too heated", to discuss including everyone else?

Perhaps not perfect, but i think i've made a pretty reasonable case.

The U.S. Justice Department has filed charges against a man allegedly working for the Indian government to orchestrate the assassination of a U.S. citizen earlier this year.

@theintercept reports on the case which echoes the murder of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a Canadian citizen who was a leader in the Sikh separatist movement.
