Europe needs its own social media as you cannot trust that Trump will not use US social media against Europe’s democracies….
So, true. It has been obvious for a long long time but now may be more politicians will walk the talk? Mastodon is so European as it can be, decentralized, open source and no manipulative algorithms. The Danish gov does not even have a server which Danes could use for sign up, so just chose one here; joinmastodon.org

I bet EU politicians will decide that Europe needs ‘social media’ that is exactly like the US big tech version: an advertising / psychological manipulation platform with central control that has some social features on the side to drive the data harvesting.

The 'magic' of walking with grief


Walking with other people who are grieving a loss is one way to ease some of the pain and feel less alone.

ADHD Time
This image humorously illustrates the non-linear perception of time for individuals with ADHD. Bold black text across the top declares "TRANSLATING ADHD TIME," with the handle "@adhdactually" below. The description is broken down into colored sections: a yellow bar highlighting "THE OTHER DAY," followed by text defining it as any timeframe between yesterday and a few months ago. A pink bar features "IN A MINUTE" and its AKA "JUST GIVE ME A SECOND / ONE MOMENT," then describes it as a timeframe between 10 minutes and an hour. Finally, a turquoise bar presents "LATER AKA - 'NOT NOW'," which is defined as the "black hole of time where all things that are not done in the moment, disappear to." The overall atmosphere is lighthearted and relatable, using a clean, graphic design with bright, contrasting colors to convey its message effectively.

Any Irish folk around? In the Christmas style mince pies, there isn't actually minced meat in the mincedmeat-filling? Mostly apples and raisins, right (apart from suet, which might be considered meat I suppose).

Just a reminder that defending the Jury system by quoting Magna Carta is misguided. There are much better examples in more modern England.

Garnier does however somewhat overplay his hand glossing over who has been mainly responsible in breaking the justice system, but then he would say that wouldn’t he?

#Jury #Legal #Justice #England #UkPol

From the linked article, text reads EDWARD GARNIER Juries are a bedrock of Britain, but not because of Magna Carta David Lammy has undoubtedly got it wrong, the former solicitor-general writes, but let’s not strain the history Edward Garnier Sunday December 14 2025, 12.01am GMT, The Sunday Times The justice secretary says access to jury trial is to be restricted because that will break the backlog and enable justice to be done more quickly. Unfortunately, David Lammy is not the first justice secretary to answer the wrong question, nor to answer the wrong question wrongly. He is not a noted student of the law, nor is his reputation for consistency and concentration well known. Recently he was a champion of the jury system as one of the bedrocks of our democracy. But that was then; now he plays a different, if discordant, tune. Meanwhile, the legal and constitutional historians are dusting off Magna Carta to add fuel to their fury about the justice secretary’s attack on the centuries-old right to trial by jury. Lammy has unquestionably come up with the wrong, or a partial, answer to the wrong question, but we are straining history if we base our criticism on Magna Carta.

Wenn man für eine pflanzenliebende Kollegin doch noch spontan über ein kleines Muster stolpert ❤️ Ohhh, das wird sehr süß ☺️ #stitching #blackworkembroidery #wip #wipwednesday
Ein Foto von einem weißen Stück Stoff in einem runden Stickrahmen. Man sieht in diesem Rahmen eine noch nicht fertige Stickerei von drei kleinen Blumentöpfen auf einem Brett. In zwei der Töpfen sind bereits Pflanzen zu erkennen, es sind kleine Kakteen. Die Stickerei ist im Blackwork-Stil gehalten, die Motive haben schmal gestickte Umrisse, die Flächen darin werden mit kleinen simplen Mustern gefüllt.

Ein kreisförmiger Stickrahmen enthält ein Kreuzstich-Design auf weißem Stoff. Das Design besteht aus sechs kleinen Kakteen in Töpfen, die in zwei Reihen angeordnet sind. Die Kakteen sind in verschiedenen Grüntönen gestickt, und die Töpfe sind mit Lila- und Rosatönen akzentuiert. Zwischen den Töpfen und unterhalb der unteren Reihe befindet sich eine schwarze Zickzacklinie. Der Stickrahmen ist auf einem weißen Stoff untergebracht, und ein Metallwerkzeug ist teilweise im linken Bildrand zu sehen.
