Das ist richtig gute linke Kommunikation. Die Wut ist berechtigt. Menschen sind nicht so, sie werden böse gemacht. Die Probleme sind systemisch. Kulturkämpfe sind Ablenkung und Sündenböcke. Labour ist Teil der Problems. Alles hängt zusammen. Es muss so nicht sein, es kann besser sein.

@ungated.life hey rob, you were looking for a word starting with P to displace "the underworld" How about these? - Perdition (means eternal damnation or hell — often used as a synonym for the underworld in a Christian context) - Pit (as in “bottomless pit”) - Phantom realm

This feminist anti-natalist piece is a chilling, eye-opening read - all the reasons in one place why pregnancy and child-rearing in the US is now so risky and damaging to life-chances And it doesn't even cover the risk for young cis women of hitching bodily autonomy to a red-pilled Gen Z misogynist

One reason generalists are so good at challenging norms, such as "this is how it is done," is that they often do not know them or "how it is usually done." They have to make sense of the bits around them and build a path to where it is done. #buildinginpublic #awesomegeneralist

Vor zwei Jahren begann die groß angelegte Invasion Russlands in die #Ukraine. Ich erlebte das als eine tiefe Erschütterung, als große Traurigkeit, als das Ende einer Hoffnung, dass wir irgendetwas aus dem 20. Jahrhundert gelernt hätten. Das Gefühl ist seitdem geblieben.

"Will Europe ever get serious about defense?" Are you asking after 2 years of playing "Breadcrumbs in Blood" with Ukraine? The strategy is clear: Drain Russia of resources with the blood and land of Ukraine and hope for the best, that R. is less resourceful than the hopes and prayers of estimation.

By 2030, there will be a shortage of over 750,000 skilled workers in key industries for the transition to a climate-positive country. Germany can only achieve its climate targets if more people work in climate jobs. For example, as installers of solar systems or conductors in public transport.
