Der Umbau ist saucool, bitter nötig und längst überfallig. aber warum bleiben (zumindest teilweise) diese bescheuerten seitenstraßen? da fährt so selten jemand und der platz wäre für fußgänger:innen so viel besser genutzt

Every Wikipedia editor starts somewhere. Luckily, the Help:Directory makes the first step easy: it’s a collection of how-to pages and tutorials to guide volunteers through everything from creating categories to adding references.

Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science! #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience
4-panel Comic "Women in Science" by War and Peas. 1. Man in ancient clothes and wig enters the room. He says, "I've returned from my trip to the future!" 2. "Women are doing science!" 3. Another man answers, "But there's still structural inequality and sexism making it difficult for them?" 4. "YES!" "Thank God!"

Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson, one of the greatest comic strips of all time, was born on this day, November 18, 1985 -- December 31, 1995. And Calvin's dad remains a beacon of inspiration to cyclists everywhere.
Calvin and Hobbes comic strip. In frame one Calvin opens a door and says, "Hey Dad, I'm doing a traffic safety poster. Do you have any ideas for a slogan?" Frame 2: Dad, who's prepping to ride his mountain bike, says, "Sure! 'Cyclists have a right to the road too, you noisy, polluting, inconsiderate maniacs! I hope gas goes up to eight bucks a gallon!'"
Frame 3: Calvin, walking away, says, "Thanks, Dad. I'll go ask Mom." Dad responds from out-of-frame, "Why? That's a great slogan!"

Subject: Auto-reply women's voices

Hello!
You've written in to voice your dislike of one of our female reporter's voices. You're not alone. We have a filter set up that automatically sends these types of emails into a folder labeled "zero priority." We'll review this folder and consider the complaints within, well, never.
Amazingly we don't even have a folder for complaints about the male voices on our show, because we've never gotten one! Isn't that strange? We think so.
Anyway, hope you can continue to enjoy our free podcast somehow, 2. and if you can't there are plenty of shows that don't feature women's voices at all.

My cartoon for this weekend’s @theguardian.com books.
A sunny day in the park. People jog, walk their dogs and sit in the shade of the trees. A woman sits on a bench and says:

“It's my perfect job, really! Their owners are busy people who love them but don't have time to give the attention they need.

Nobody likes to think of them just lying around the house all alone. 

So I pick them up bright and early and we spend the whole day in the park. 

I read a few chapters of each and drop them home with a short precis of what happened. Everyone's happy!”

She is reading a book and has a pile of six more beside her.

You won't believe what happened next!

PASSIVE VOICE
e.g.

HAIKU VOICE
e.g.
Quiet science lab.
Workers arrive with samples.
The testing begins.

PASSIVE-AGGRESSIVE VOICE
e.g. We did all the collecting and testing.
No need to thank us.
Just doing our job.

CONSPIRACY VOICE
e.g.
Mysterious "Samples" were harvested and covertly "tested" by so-called scientists.

Scullsly from The X-Files, stands in front of a filing cabinet labeled ‘WORLD HISTORY.’ She is holding a file folder and looking at the camera with a serious expression. The text above reads: ‘When I hear the phrase “men don’t start drama.”’ The meme humorously suggests that world history, often shaped by wars and conflicts initiated by men, contradicts the claim. Meme by Bored Panda.

Silly psy cartoon for the weekend!
This cartoon humorously but poignantly depicts the differing internal experiences of a human and their dog.

The human, depicted as a young person wearing a beanie and sweater, is tossing a ball for their dog and thinking:
“I love how he finds joy in the simple things.”

Meanwhile, the dog, eagerly chasing the ball, is internally thinking:
“The emotional burden of alleviating his depression is crushing me.”

The contrast between their thoughts highlights the unspoken emotional labor that pets often perform for their owners, especially those struggling with mental health challenges. The cartoon plays with the idea that while humans often admire their pets’ ability to live in the moment, the pet might, in turn, feel an overwhelming sense of responsibility for their owner’s well-being. This satirical inversion adds depth to the common perception of pets as sources of unconditional joy and support.

Another note on this: I think some clients are hesitant to bring up politics in session. Perhaps they wonder: Is it okay to discuss this? What if my therapist & I don’t agree? What if I find out something potentially upsetting about my therapist’s beliefs that leads me to feel unsafe w/ them?
