Israel's huge L-33 Ro’em self-propelled howitzer. This machine was basically a large box placed on top of a Sherman lower hull, surrounding a 155 mm howitzer, with a Cummins V8 diesel engine providing the power.

Maarten Biesheuvel heeft een droom op oudejaarsdag

bron beeld: trouw.nl In het verhaal Oudejaar komt Maarten Biesheuvels voorkeur voor de 19-de eeuw, de Russische schrijvers uit die periode en zijn hang naar symboliek in zijn verhalen samen. De hoofdrolspeler lijkt iemand van adel (vorst, landgoed, knechten, koetsen enz.), is lui; heeft moeite met de zinloosheid van zijn bestaan en is op zoek naar de juiste vrouw, in dit geval een gravin. Hij…

Mira Lazine at LGBTQ Nation:

For the first time in over a decade, the Democratic National Convention (DNC) did not feature a single trans speaker. Additionally, the event has been called out for failing to feature discussions of trans people. This came to light when Harvard CyberLaw Clinic instructor and trans activist Alejandra Caraballo posted on X: “This was the first DNC since 2012 to not feature a trans person speaking. ‘We’re not going back’ doesn’t apply to the trans community.” The two prior DNC events were held in 2016 and 2020. In 2016, Sarah McBride, who at the time was national press secretary with the Human Rights Campaign and not yet a state lawmaker, spoke at the convention. In 2020, then-Virginia state Delegate Danica Roem (D) spoke.

McBride was the first out trans primary speaker at a DNC event, and both DNCs had talked in detail about trans issues. However, almost none of the speakers at the DNC this year discussed transgender rights issues. There were only two direct mentions of trans people at a main speaking event: Kelley Robinson, president of the Human Rights Campaign, and Sen. Corey Booker (D-NJ) both mentioned trans issues in passing. However, the DNC this year featured the largest number of LGBTQ+ delegates ever. Delegates are the individuals selected to represent their state or territory in order to officially nominate the presidential candidate. Over 800 delegates out of the total 4,700 were members of the LGBTQ+ community. Of that number, only around 50 were trans, according to the Harris-Walz National LGBTQ+ Engagement Director Sam Alleman. This was reportedly the largest number of trans delegates in history, in spite of making up just 1% of total delegates.

[...] Perella also had a brief speaking role during the New Jersey delegate roll call, however this was not a main speaking role and her speech lasted less than a minute. She spoke about making New Jersey and America as a whole a safe place for LGBTQ+ individuals. The Democratic platform this year states the party’s commitment to transgender rights and desire to oppose restrictions on transgender healthcare.

The DNC made a major mistake of not including a trans speaker at the convention in the wake of the GOP’s anti-trans hatred campaign, and only a couple of speakers made passing references to trans people directly.

Montana State Rep. Zooey Zephyr and/or her spouse Erin Reed should have had one, for example.

DANICA ROEM // POLITICIAN

“She is an American journalist and politician who has served in the Virginia Senate since 2024. A Democrat, she represents the 30th district covering part of Prince William County including the cities of Manassas and Manassas Park. She previously served in the Virginia House of Delegates representing the 13th district from 2018-2024. Elected to the Virginia House of Delegates in 2017, Roem is the first openly transgender person elected to either house of the Virginia General Assembly, and upon her January 2018 swearing-in became the first openly transgender person to be elected and serve in a state legislature in U.S. history.”
