Ende September: Das #Matterhorn ist schneefrei. 😢 Der #Klimawandel setzt den #Alpen immer mehr zu. Laut MeteoSchweiz war es von April bis September in der #Schweiz so warm und so trocken wie noch nie in den vergangenen 160 Jahren.
Vergleichsbild des Matterhorns vom 29. September 2026 und 29. September 2025. Oben ist die Landschaft rund um das Matterhorn weitgehend schneefrei und von grauem Geröll und Fels geprägt. Unten sind das Matterhorn und die umliegenden Hänge ein Jahr zuvor grossflächig mit Schnee bedeckt.

He is not burning cash. He is investing money to shape political discourse and public opinion in line with his ideology and interests. And it's a successful strategy. Also, for a billionaire losing 10 million is like losing 1000 pounds for a middle class person.

Today's the day! Jump on Trains 503, 508, 516 and 519 to enjoy the new Amtrak Cascades trains. Super comfy seats. Tray tables in Triplicate - not even kidding! Adjustable cupholders. There is nothing like that new train smell.💚🤎🤍

I could also talk about the undue burden sexual misconduct puts on female faculty when students come to ask for help. Hours & hours work time lost because no one else will believe & help victims. It is an honor to be trusted. And a ton of administrative & emotional labor results when it happens.

I had a student whose mother warned her about the serial sexual harassers in my former department...because they sexually harassed students when the mom was a student thirty years before. Not the same as SA, but very indicative of the pattern. Men are protected while women suffer.

With alt text. I know someone who actually did this
kbarton1001
On my first big overseas client conference, I was at a dinner seated next to a drunk client who kept trying to fondle me under the table. I was young, distressed, and had no idea what to do. I moved my legs as far away from him as I could, moving into the space of the man next to me, who then started patting my legs! The Regional Manager was a French woman who caught my eye, gestured for me to go to the bathroom and when I came back had switched chairs with me. What happed next was epic. A few minutes after I sat back down, she raised her hand with his hand captured in hers and announced loudly "Does anyone know whose hand this is? I found it in my lap." There was dead silence at the table. She threw his hand back at him and said calmly "next time I pick it up with my fork." Then she started a new conversational thread and things moved on. After the meeting she found me, gave me a hug, and said seriously "Never be afraid to make some noise. It is their shame, not yours."
