  RE: https://mastodon.social/@rapporteur/117473441008696622 The protests helped! "The European Parliament has decisively backed the suspension of a requirement for small businesses to appoint an agent in every EU country they ship to, to ensure compliance with waste-reduction laws." https://www.rapporteur.com/news/meps-back-small-business-exemption-from-costly-waste-reduction-compliance/ #GoodNews #PPWR #artists #crafters #microentreprise #smallBusiness #microenterprise #EU

  1/3 I discovered today the Stolen Neighbour #Quilt from #Minnesota. #CraftivistSolidarity at it's best but heartbreaking. A community art project of the Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action Committee. It gives you a feeling of dry statistics. Each square stands for one person detained by the ICE since January (only!): 11,000 squares! 11,000 stolen persons. video: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/kFmbaxZ_GOE WCCO/Msn article https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/minnesota-immigrant-rights-action-...

  I just got a shock. I want the old design back!!! 😭 It was a matter of seconds, and the Design of #Mastodon changed. Usually, I have nothing against design changes. But if it hits me so unprepared that I think my browser has a bug ... A real bug is that I have to make an extra click for writing a post now and get a much too small pop up field down at the right (not at eye's height)! I have to search for notifications ... it's less intuitive than before. @MastodonEngineering@mastodon....

  I don't count the #heatwaves in France anymore. I only look for the "coldest" nights to sleep (under 22°C) and how to survive appointments in the outer oven. At 30°-33°C, I make a happy dance because it feels cooler than up to 40°C. I have overwhelming memories when and how I planted the trees I lost to the #drought. I'm sad to have lost an outdoor season and my natural feeling of time. If you want to count: officially we are at No 5 and no end visible. #climateCrisis #Clima...

  I just wanted to cancel an important appointment because the extreme #heat makes me unable to go outside into that oven. Their answering machine was at the limit. They called me back: Yes, everybody wanted to cancel today but your appointment is tomorrow. It will be a little bit cooler then. If not, just call again tomorrow how you feel. This is what the heat does to brains, answering machines, and appointments. #heatwave #ClimateDiary #extremeHeat #ClimateAdaption

  RE: https://mastodon.online/@NatureMC/116998419699986476 Attention, new #scammers on Mastodon. It's important to report such accounts before blocking, so you help moderators suspend illegal accounts. This guy spams by comments and surely has a scam worse than a "Nigerian prince". I also blocked the instance, if you try to look at it you get some fishy code running. #fraudster #fediblock #scam #admins

  🧵 I can’t cry as easily as I used to in former times. Watching our news footage of the fires in the south-west, the tears just streamed down my face. The persistence of the #firefighters and #rescue workers, often followed by trauma that will last a lifetime. How they are left in the lurch by a government that has cut back on everything for years and failed to act. Just like during the pandemic. We haven’t learnt anything from the fact that, at some point, the rescuers themselves need to be

  I was wondering about the number of posts about building air filters at the moment. I looked at the world's time zones and understood: Pure air is becoming a luxury even in regions we connect with nature, forests, and ecology. https://thenarwhal.ca/ontario-wildfire-smoke-health-risks/ Human made #climateDisaster fueled (yes) by #FossilIndustry is more and more destroying the base of LIFE itself. #climateCrisis #ClimateDiary #wildfires #airquality #ecoGrief

  I only half-heard German news. Apparently, France has lent the British an old carpet. OMG, have Brexit and politics made things in the UK that much worse? That they have to borrow old carpets? It was about the Bayeux Tapestry. 🤣 In German, the word 'Teppich' can be used for tapestry as well as for a thinned out old carpet that you use for transporting a corpse. But the news speaker could have talked about a 'Wandteppich' if only he knew. 🤓 #languagelearning #German #BayeuxTapes...

  After the #extremeHeat in France, the danger of #wildfires is enormous. #Heatwave and #soil #dryness didn't change much for the plants this week - with "cool" 30°C and full sunshine. #Trees try to resist by getting "dried" #leaves. At a certain heat temp., the process starts at the exterieur like burnings. Then the green vanishes to the centre until #photosynthesis is stopped. If the plant can't get soon enough rain to regenerate, it can die. Food crops die before tr...

  It's the first time since I volunteer (10 yrs minimum) that our #museum has to close because of the #heat after some morning hours. The whole WE. I just got the news: no animations. The heat is too much risk for visitors and working colleagues. Heat is similar to a pandemic: it isolates people. Heat closes you up in your room. And for us, it means financial loss: the WE is our main visitor time. #ClimateDiary #heatwave #France

  Merke: Wenn sich in einem "journalistischen Artikel" dreimal "Pfade öffnen", dann seid ihr auf dem richtigen Pfad, einem sogenannten "Medienportal" auf den Leim zu gehen, das von vorn bis hinten nur aus LLM /GPT-Schleim besteht. Es entstehen immer mehr solcher Pseudomedienportale. Schaut euch Impressum und eine About-Seite genauestens an.

  @csgraves It's hard to read that ... because yes, these Maga heads haven't learnt anything but the most evil from the past ... but there are all these wonderful and good people, too! This is where my heart bleads, and I hope so much that people in the USA still can fight the pest and learn, and change. I wish you all the best, and even if that might sound a bit hollow, it comes from the heart.

  1/2 Quite a lot of people in my feed create #zines. May I ask what programme you use for the design of pages with more text? Especially for #minizines ? I only know Indesign for professional books, and my last mini #zine was drawn/written by hand, then scanned. Any simple software recommandation just for a hobby? (And I don't have the money to pay Adobe-Stuff). How do you make your zines? ed: thanks to all for the great help! I recommend to read the comments! #zinemaking #zinester #zinem...

  @ghoermann Das ist positiv für die Medienvielfalt an sich. Und es ehrt dich. Leider bist du nicht die Mehrheit der Kosument*innen und irgendwoher müssen die ganzen Jobs und die Bezahlung kommen. Letztere ist bei Freiberufler*innen schlicht oft lausig. Ich kann den Beruf nur empfehlen, wenn man absolute Leidenschaft dafür hat und finanziell den Biss zum Durchhalten. Aber niemand muss auf mich hören.😉 @benny @echopapa @seppini @nerdherz

  Don't visit the #USA. A French woman, aged 86, finally arrived back in France thanks to help from the embassy. "Marie-Thérèse Ross-Mahé was arrested in her nightgown at the home she shared with her late husband, a retired US army captain" by ICE and imprisoned in a #detention camp. Arriving, "she was still dressed in her detention uniform of orange shoes, sweatpants and a grey sweater covered in stains and holes. ... in a state of shock and exhausted after her...
