Ich hätte mir ein Auto als #Falschparker aus Beton in der Kreuzung vor einiger Grundschule gewünscht, aber diese Auseinandersetzung mit den eScootern finde ich doch gelungen.

Schade finde ich, dass dem kulturfeindlichen Populismus so viel Raum in der KN gegeben wird. Nur weil Unterstützer*innen von Kultur nicht drauf reagieren, heißt es doch nicht, dass die Kunst keine Unterstützung hätte. Sie wird halt da bemerkbar, wo die KN nicht hinzuhören scheint.

Report: "A tour overlooking Gaza": Israeli politicians & settlers visited a lookout over northern Gaza "to discuss future illegal settlements", despite such settlements violating international law.

Roughly 700,000 Israeli settlers live in ~250 illegal settlements & outposts on Palestinian land.

Happy Winter solstice! 🎉

I've been trying to reach out to PeerTube to work together, though I think they are pretty swamped with their awesome new app, not to mention the holidays.

PeerTube and Loops do compliment each other, as the former is more long form and Loops is super short form.

That being said, I'm eager to find ways we can leverage our strengths to make each others platforms even better, and I'm super thankful for the pioneering work they've done so far.

I'm standing on the shoulders of giants ✨

At the risk of drawing a line from a single point ...

I got an Amazon delivery tonight that was properly addressed, properly described, but utterly the wrong thing (a wooden knife block was expected, a women's faux leather jacket arrived instead.)

So I'm wondering if workers in Amazon shipping centers are expressing support for the strikers by mixing up orders?

Yup, I admit that I am stretching a single datum beyond the breaking point, but what else can one do on the longest night of the year? (Oh boy, I know that that question opens a very wide door and sends out invitations.)

ntv:
"+++ 08:56 AfD fordert Sitzung des Innenausschusses +++
Nach der tödlichen Attacke fordert die AfD-Landtagsfraktion eine Sondersitzung des Innenausschusses - auch zur Aufklärung möglicher Verfehlungen oder Versäumnisse. Es müsse deutlich werden, was man wisse, wer gehandelt habe und wer nicht,..."

Die Partei, die unter anderem nach aktuellem Wissensstand zur Radikalisierung des Täters geführt hat, fordert Aufklärung.

Soviel Chuzpe muss man haben.

@benroyce has posted a quite interesting recap of what's happened regarding #Russia over the past 3 years. Starting with the invasion of #Ukraine, the uprising in #Georgia, the fall of Russian control of #Syria, #Armenia's turn to Europe, and Donald Trump's recent and apparent decision to continue US support for Ukraine.

It appears… Putin is going to find himself in history's poo-tin.

Ich habe drei Filme meines Fünfteilers #UmsLand Saar auf tube.tchncs geladen, aber noch privat. Der Uploadprozess dauerte so lange, dass ich es vor den Weihnachtsferien nicht mehr schaffte und so gibts das alles wohl erst nächstes Jahr. Das Projekt Saarlandumradelung als Film war jedenfalls sehr inspirierend für kommende Umradelungen.

Does the 'Stormont Brake', that allows Northern Ireland to opt out of EU laws that would damage its relations with the rest of the UK, actually work?

The Northern Ireland Assembly managed to assemble a majority to vote to halt a change in chemicals' labelling rules, but now its up Keir Starmer whether to confirm the veto on an update of an EU law...

The veto would see NI start to deviate from EU rules, a refusal to enact it may be seen as anti-democratic?

Musings of Toby Young, the latest tin-eared bigoted parasite and self-confessed English nationalist to enter the House of Lords:

"... devolved nations [behaved] like “irresponsible students” during the coronavirus pandemic, [he called] them "ungrateful"."

"Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland were “running up massive debts on their credit cards because they can count on the bank of mum and dad to bail them out”."

#Spotted on a Rainy Pre-Christmas Market Day in a Small City in Aotearoa #NewZealand

A small human (3?) in a green hat is told by his mum not to run ahead as they navigate a busy crowd. He turns and huffs a long suffering sigh: "But I'm showing you the way so you don't get lost!"

A woman (60s?) openly staring at another woman (70s?) with purple hair. A man (70s) intervenes in a booming cheerful voice: "You've been caught rudely staring. I'm afraid your only option is to offer my beautiful wife a compliment!" Profuse apologies and a sincere compliment to follow.

A small human (4?) is clutching a sparkly purse to her chest as she is comforted by her dad. Looking at the crowd before her with a quivering lip, she wails: "But I don't WANT to buy anyone Christmas presents!"

A man (80s) who is the spitting image of Saruman in a plaid shirt and blue jeans is navigating a bright red mobility scooter along a busy street. An overflowing sack of vegetables fills the basket in front of him. Who knows what dark culinary magic will follow?

A big man with sleeve tatts and a shaved head is sitting on a bench near the markets with his big staffy keeping him company. Big Man and Big dog are resting their heads against each other. Both human and dog are smiling in happiness. This is real love.

Any typos spotted in this post are of an extraordinarily slow moving breed which is prone to lummox in busy thoroughfares. If spotted, please encourage to move on by poking with a very long stick.

Seeing all these brilliant scientist colleagues, media people and climate/biodiversity activists arrive here in #fediverse makes me wonder:

What if we just all left that bird place for those virile car fetishists and hate speech lovers ... and came here for information and truly serious conversations about the way towards a better world for our children?

Three observations about Facebook trends:
1) The use of anonymous posts makes it even harder to distinguish propaganda from idiocy. This accelerates the ‘race to the bottom’ that I did not think was possible.
2) The proliferation of machine-generated content is apparent an perhaps unnerving, but too new to form an opinion as to long term impact.
3) I feel less satisfaction using Facebook than in the past and far less than Mastodon. The only reason I keep using it is that almost everyone I know uses it and nobody I know uses Mastodon.
