"Merz kommuniziert nicht nur schlecht. Die Reformen sind schlecht. Die Regierung will [...] bei den Familien zuerst kürzen. Dabei ist die Summe von rund 2,5 Milliarden Euro, die man dabei einspart, vergleichsweise gering. Allein der Tankrabatt kostet für drei Monate ebenfalls 2,5 Milliarden Euro."

Katharina Dröge: »Die Mitte in Deutschland tickt eigentlich links«
Friedrich Merz regiere verheerend schlecht, sagt Katharina Dröge. Nur, was kommt danach? Warum die Fraktionschefin der Grünen Grün-Rot-Rot für eine gute Option hält.

Thank you.That's so nice of you to say. But what i viciously fight for is an end to ALL animal exploitation&moving society away from eating&wearing animal products.Our diet kills billions of animals/yr, kills millions of people/yr&is a leading cause of climate change.We MUST eat a plant based diet.

Think about how twisted that is. We have built an entire culture around teaching women how not to become victims instead of demanding that men stop creating the danger. Maybe we should finally put the burden where it belongs.

Why is the woman's decision to enter a room treated like the key event, while the man's decisions inside that room are treated like some secondary detail? Why did he assume access meant consent? Why did he keep going if

Some STEM guys don't like the idea that humanities people know more about culture, writing, art, history, etc.; they thought genAI would make them instant arts geniuses Instead, the total poverty of AI art and writing is drawing attention back to the value of the long-maligned humanities

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:
Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

Universities cannot expect researchers to take risks if they are repeatedly at risk of redundancy while losing professional services support, grappling with the gratuitous vagaries of home and international student number swings and both teaching and assessing in an age of unregulated AI.

Humans brought rabbits to Australia. Humans released them. Humans transformed the landscape. Now rabbits are poisoned, shot, fumigated and infected with viruses for a crisis they did not create.

Humans trafficked rabbits thousands of miles from where they belonged. Humans released them. Rabbits reproduced. And now rabbits are called the invaders.

I’ve been a media witness to two federal executions. One was Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh. The other, a week later, was a drug kingpin named Juan Raul Garza. My conclusion after watching both men die: The death penalty should not exist. Period. It fixes nothing, and it erodes our souls.
