Ja dann fragen wir doch mal die Töchter:

Wenn Friedrich Merz sich auch nur ansatzweise interessieren würde dafür, was gut für meine Töchter ist, nähme er die Klimakrise ernst, würde den Verbrennungsmotor in Rente schicken, Überreiche fair besteuern und nie mehr AfD-Parolen nachbellen.

‘Go-to trope’: how the far right is exploiting violence against women and girls From Tommy Robinson to Reform UK, nationalist figures are weaponising women’s safety to push anti-migrant fears

Er kann sich jetzt neben Farage, Orban, Meloni, Le Pen & Co einreihen. Und wenn er das noch so sehr abstreitet.

Kurzer Eindruck von der »Wir sind das #Stadtbild« -Demo auf dem Pariser Platz in Berlin, die kurzfristig am heutigen Abend stattfand.

‘Go-to trope’: how the far right is exploiting violence against women and girls From Tommy Robinson to Reform UK, nationalist figures are weaponising women’s safety to push anti-migrant fears

Der Artikel ist älter, deshalb wurde #Bundeskanzler Friedrich #Merz noch nicht erwähnt: www.theguardian.com/politics/202... Sein brandgefährliches Narrativ über #Frauen und #Töchter stellt ihn aber in eine Reihe mit all diesen rassistischen und misogynen Gestalten. #Stadtbild #Rassismus #Misogynie

I like this article by @chasingbugs.com very much! As a journalist and nature lover, and as someone searching for less anthropocentrism in writing!

How Trump is Building a Violent, Shadowy Federal Police Force Trump’s DHS appointees have dismantled civil rights guardrails, protected agents’ anonymity and encouraged them to wear masks, threatened groups that stood in their way, and overwhelmed legal challeng...

"Current and former national security officials…describe the legions of masked immigration officers operating in near-total anonymity on the orders of the president as the crossing of a line that had long set the US apart from the world’s most repressive regimes." www.propublica.org/article/trum...

"No Kings" Organizers: Make Your Activism Last Beyond the Protests Teen Vogue speaks with a “No Kings” organizer on leveraging change even after the protest.

there are lessons from No Kings' scale that serve us all.

if this is the sum of your protest experience, what's next for you?

if you are someone plugged into movement and direct action outside electoral politics, can this be an opportunity for you to radicalize someone and bring new resources in?

Why Journalists Should Write About Insects • The Revelator It’s time to craft a new insect narrative, one that transforms our perspective from fear to fascination.

I originally invited conservation photographer @chasingbugs.com to write this for the @sejorg.bsky.social magazine, but I thought it deserved an even bigger audience, so I'm republishing in on @therevelator.org today: therevelator.org/write-about-...

THE IMPERIAL NEED FOR CONTROL IS SO DESPERATE BECAUSE IT IS SO UNNATURAL. TYRANNY REQUIRES CONSTANT EFFORT. IT BREAKS, IT LEAKS. AUTHORITY IS BRITTLE. OPPRESSION IS THE MASK OF FEAR. REMEMBER THAT. AND KNOW THIS, THE DAY WILL COME WHEN ALL THESE SKIRMISHES AND BATTLES, THESE MOMENTS OF DEFIANCE, WILL HAVE FLOODED THE BANKS OF THE EMPIRE'S AUTHORITY AND THEN THERE WILL BE ONE TOO MANY. NE SINGLE THING WILL BREAK THE SIEGE. REMEMBER THIS. TRY. Karis Nemik, 5 BBY

Monocultures destroy life, eradicate ecosystems, maintained by endless toxic pesticides.

"Diversity is strength" is the fundamental operating principle of life on earth.

It's everything fascists must destroy in order to maintain their monoculture of hate &supremacy.

But they are brittle AF.

This is what psychological warfare looks like.
More than anything, even more than being huge ass racists, ice agents want to look cool and feel like badasses.
Make. them. look. stupid.

Scientists develop first ‘accurate blood test’ to detect chronic fatigue syndrome Research could offer hope for ME patients – but some experts urge caution and say more studies needed

ME/CFS is a devastating condition that has long been denied, dismissed, psychologised and underdiagnosed. Research is at last starting to catch up with it, with glimmers of hope for those who have been left untreated for so long.
There's a huge BUT coming ...🧵

A brown pseudoscopion hanging on to the antenna of a wasp. The wasp is yellow with black stripes and transparent wings.

My first pseudoscorpion observation was pure luck. Happen to see this wasp and took a shot. It was only later did I see what was hanging on the antenna.
