I saw the footage of ICEstapo agents firing pepper shot at the footpath in front of the unmoving protesters across the street. Those violent, violent Portlanders had the audacity to stay put. One frog even jittered about in some kind of war dance! 😉

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

Diese Angewohnheit von deutschen Unternehmen, auf Support Emails nicht mal eine Ticketnummer zu liefern. Ich kann mir dann vorstellen, wie die Bearbeitung intern aussieht 🙈

Chatkontrolle stoppen! Die EU-Kommission will Messenger-Dienste wie WhatsApp und Signal zwingen, alle privaten Nachrichten und Fotos in Echtzeit zu scannen. Angeblich zum Kinderschutz. In Wahrheit bedeutet die Chatkontrolle...

Bald könnten ALLE Chat-Nachrichten von den Behörden durchsucht werden – selbst ohne Verdacht! Das entscheiden *heute* die Minister*innen. Sag Nein zur Chatkontrolle! Jetzt unterzeichnen ✍️ weact.campact.de/petitions/ch...

It was back then at Twitter. The original one. So mich has changed since then.
But poor Watson. Cannot imagine how you feel right now.

:-/. I still remember the time, when you got him.

Frustrated little dude gripping a pencil saying “how do I pack this down into something I can actually share?” While swirling rainbows labeled “INFINITE POTENTIAL” float around them. Little dude frowns at a tiny grey box, exclaiming “all that work for THIS?!” Little dude shoves the grey box into another little guy’s hands; Frowning, stomping off, and saying “Here you go, I made this, it sucks.” Second little dude cracks open the box, swirling rainbows project out onto their face. Second little dude stares in awe at all the swirling rainbows now floating around them.

Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑

Und nach der Wiedereinführung der Subventionen für „Agrardiesel“ werden spätestens im Herbst Entschädigungen für klimabedingte Ernteschäden gefordert. Eine Art Perpetuum Mobile - mehr Subventionen für das Ausstossen klimaschädlicher Gase und dann Entschädigung für die eingetretenen Schäden!

I totally can understand this. Nature is still the best artist

Wow… that does look fantastic!

Screenshot aus dem Interview. Dort steht: „Sind das Norweger? Nein, Ukrainer und Russen, unter zypriotischer Flagge. In den Nachrichten werden ja jetzt dauernd Szenarios durchge-spielt, wie und wo uns die Russen angrei-fen. Aber dass Russen und Ukrainer gemeinsam in meinem Garten einfallen, auf diese Art, ist doch überraschend. Wobei, weit sind sie ja nicht gekommen.“

Großartig! 😂🙈

Die SZ hat den Norweger interviewt, in dessen Vorgarten das riesige Frachtschiff reingerauscht ist.

Dabei wird er gefragt, woher die Crew komme.

Der Mann hat Humor.
Eigenwilligen Humor.
Aber ich mag ihn.

Denn die Message dahinter ist - auf so vielen Ebenen - eine Punktlandung.

BREAKING.

From a reliable source. MITRE support for the CVE program is due to expire tomorrow. The attached letter was sent out to CVE Board Members.

Oh.

Donald Trump is exempting smartphones from tariffs now?

Guess Apple CEO Tim Cook personally donating $1 million to Trump's inaugural committee paid off.

Exemptions also include semiconductors, solar cells, and memory cards.

Solar cells?

Elon Musk is getting his money's worth for Tesla too.

I received a heartbreaking email today: A paper in a special issue I’m editing is being retracted because one of its authors is afraid of losing their job and their legal status in the U.S. if they publish a scientific study on evolution. Yes, on evolution, nature's engine of diversity.

Joa… kann ich nachvollziehen. Aber gut, dass alles okay ist :-)

Happy International Day of Education, everyone!

Wie kann das denn sein?! Das darf ja wohl nicht wahr sein!
