Guten Morgen - Tässle Kaffee ☕️?

Die #Geburtenraten sacken weltweit & auch in #Deutschland auf 1,35 Geburten pro Frau weiter ab. Während viele Rechte die #Klimakrise verleugnen, wollen auch viele Progressive nicht sehen, was die säkulare Geburtenimplosion für Wirtschaft, Altersversorgung & Demokratie bedeutet. Der Kinderreichtum vieler religiöser Gruppen wird abgetan. Immerhin tauchte ich 2019 für meine Arbeiten zu #Religionsdemografie mal in 1 #Rapsong auf! 🤭🎶🤩 scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-…

@kami_kadse wahrscheinlich hast du Recht. Das Ökosystem stottert aber auch schon. Es wird bestimmt kein Spaß...
in reply to Matthias Büchse

@drmabuese ja das Ökosystem ist das, was uns am brutalsten auf die Füsse fallen wird, und ich befürchte wir sind schon über ein paar Kipppunkte drüber.

It's probably a good thing I'm not "in charge". *sigh* It'd be horrible.

Les Druzes syriens pris dans un étau

Les affrontements continuent dans la région druze de Syrie, vers laquelle convergent à présent des djihadistes venus se battre aux côtés des milices bédouines. Des récits sur place font état de nombreuses exécutions de civils et de kidnappings de femmes druzes.

“This is how media freedom dies. Not with dramatic raids on newsrooms or journalists thrown in jail (though who knows what the rest of Trump’s second term will bring). It dies with mergers and acquisitions, with regulatory pressure and financial settlements, with billionaires who see news organizations as just another business asset to be leveraged.” newrepublic.com/article/198120…

I like how somebody suggested that Canada should offer him radio free something something as a platform.

My impression from his announcement about the shows cancellation, was that he was still in shock about it.

At the same time, I can imagine this will inspire the show to even more blunt criticism.

And like Mehdi Hassan, may he rise to come even more powerful than before



Will Israel ever get blowback for bombing its neighbours?

In the last two years, as well as its war on Gaza and increasingly violent occupation of the West Bank, Israel has launched attacks on Iran, Lebanon, Syria and Yemen.

The most recent attacks on Syria were launched this week, going so far as to hit the country’s Ministry of Defence.

Israel has achieved plenty of short-term military gains, but will that outweigh regional, and international, isolation?

If one theme has emerged in Trump’s 2nd term, it’s this: He’s leveraged the power of his office for personal gain unlike anyone before in history.

From crypto coins to bibles, overseas development deals to an upcoming line of cellphones, #Trump family businesses have raked in hundreds of millions of dollars since his election, an unprecedented flood of often shadowy money from billionaires, foreign govts & cryptocurrency tycoons w/interests before the federal government.

Can't unsee in that picture: Trump apparently wearing a furry codpiece.

Cuevas Del Aguila - a wonderland :)


This cave looks so out of this world. The white of the calcium combined with the "rust" of the rock make up for a unique landscape. Very memorable! We paid 11 Euros each for the tour and it was well worth it.

Good morning to readers; Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.

Russia’s attacks are not just endangering people’s lives, they are worsening health problems in Ukraine.

16-year-old Yurii was diagnosed with diabetes in 2023, a condition which can be triggered by extreme stress.

DOG OF WAR:

Meet Tina Karol – Yurii’s dog. Tina was named after Ukrainian pop singer Tina Karol. Probably because of her long and lush coat. Tina loves long walks and tasty bones.

in reply to Tim Mak

We report from Ukraine not because it’s safe — but because it matters.

Help us stay protected, fight apathy, and keep foreign attention on the war.
