London. In the first photo, firefighters extinguish the consequences of the Nazi air strike on London. In the second photo, London residents are hiding from bombs in the subway.

Kyiv. 2022-24..everything is almost identical.

Times go by, the methods of fascists do not change.

Our planet doesn't care about us, species come and go, and we might be no exception. We can only hope and should do everything in our power to keep it hospitable for us for as long as possible, and adapt where needed. Spending resources to go live on Mars is hybris and wasted energy now.

Very cool: Bsky is over 20 million users and growing fast

Regarding ATACMS, unless there is an agreement in place with war criminal Putin, the only lines are self-imposed. Russia is murdering Ukrainian civilians every day. Calling any weapon or action required to stop that “escalation” is absurd. It’s survival.

Anti-Russian protests continue in Tblisi following this morning's brutal arrests.

Protesters have broken through the police barricades.

Good.

Really.

And no, it's not a "liberal echo chamber."

Many people just got tired of Elmo's never-ending delirium pushed down their throats on a daily basis. Enough is enough.

There's no point engaging with or reacting to bots or users posting meaningless stuff. Yes, just ignore or block.

Thanks! I guess you have a point here. Maybe it will be possible at some point to subscribe only using a filter (in this case the hash #M3+), but for now I agree it's too many. I'll change it to 2.5 for now.

Bluesky Social media as it should be. Find your community among millions of users, unleash your creativity, and have some fun again.

It would be good to keep the original bsky handle while using a custom domain.

From a user / developer perspective, after a few days here, I can only say it feels so much better. Things work as they should, look better, the API is clear and straightforward. Compared with that, X (but also FB) are nightmares.

Robert Habeck: "Ich will es mal so sagen: Wer Probleme sucht, der findet Probleme. Und wer Lösung sucht, der findet Lösungen. Also muss der Wahlkampf über die Suche von Lösungen gehen und nicht das Zuweisen von Problemen."

Er trifft schon immer wieder den richtigen Punkt.

The Azores are in the middle of the ocean, get lots of rain, but yet, there's fire beneath.

Abgeschossene russische Stealth-Drohne war voller westlicher Elektronik Die KI-Wingman-Drohne S-70 Ochotnik wäre ohne Westbauteile nie abgehoben. Selbst die Waffe, mit der sie abgeschossen wurde, ist voller Elektronik aus den USA und der EU

Eine abgeschossene russische Super-Drohne war voller Elektronik aus den USA und Deutschland. Teile aus Österreich - etwa Motoren - werden in iranischen Drohnen verbaut, die gegen die Ukraine eingesetzt werden. Das ist Profit durch Leid und Menschenleben.

Trump’s return is terrible news for Ukraine. Europe should step into the breach – but will it? | Timothy Garton Ash With Germany’s government collapsing and Europeans so divided in their response to Trump, unity is essential yet elusive, says Guardian columnist Timothy Garton Ash

"The first victim of Donald Trump’s second term as US president is likely to be Ukraine. The only people who can avert that disaster are us Europeans... Unless Europe can somehow rise to the challenge, not just Ukraine but the whole continent will be left weak..."
