Repeat after me: Elektrifizierung und Erneuerbare gewinnen. Der Mark hat längst entschieden.

(das violette Streifchen ganz unten ist übrigens die angeblich „überall“ stattfindende „Renaissance der Atomkraft“).

Queer Books and Authors are at a Breaking Point

Authors, agents, publishers: every part of the industry is seeing the strain of five years of escalating anti-LGBTQ censorship.

BOOK RIOT
Superheros is the fantasy of a ruling class that cares about you. Which is why there are capitalist and even communist superheros but not anarchist ones. The anarchist superhero is just your community providing mutual aid.

Climate Action group "Ende Gelände" blocks weapons manufacturer.

Activists are currently blocking a weapons manufacturer in Germany as part of a larger action with thousands of people that will continue until Sunday.

Friedrich-Wilhelms-Hütte in Mühlheim an der Ruhr is factory of weapons dealer Krauss-Maffei Wegmann. They sold Leopard 2 tanks to Saudi-Arabia and bribed several politicians.

Workers coming to their shift are now returning home.

"Surface acting: Think of an employee forcing a smile during a bad shift. Deep acting, on the other hand, is about changing one's internal feelings [.] Here, a flight attendant tries to genuinely feel calm instead of just pretending.

Surface acting correlated with depression & anxiety, while deep acting had no significant correlation with overall negative mental health outcomes.

In other words, pretending to feel something you do not is measurably worse for workers than trying to feel it." 😩

Volkswagen do Brasil – Wikipedia

"schaut mal, ein Esel.

den hat ein Autokonzern gekauft, um auf einer großen Solarfarm, die der Autokonzern betreibt, Schafe zu hüten."

...sagt ein Pastor.

und diese Mischung aus: Tier-Kitsch, Konzern-Greenwashing, Patriarchat, Auto-PR und "Mann postet Feelgood-Content, Männer likens"

macht Mastodon für mich so ekelhaft, oft:

teilt doch bitte keinen VW(!)-Content von Pastoren (!) "für eine bessere Welt."
