It is now increasingly clear that Western countries, led by the EU and the US, are using migrants as scapegoats to justify militarised border control. The EU’s collaboration with Israel in developing advanced surveillance and AI technology is central to this strategy. The very systems used to track and control migrants today – drones, biometric databases and predictive policing – were tested in occupied Palestine before being deployed at European borders. Asylum seekers, Palestinians, and those in solidarity with them are the first targets, but they will not be the last.
If we fail to challenge these policies, this machinery of control will continue expanding, ensnaring more and more people in its grip. The only way forward is to build transnational solidarity networks that resist these injustices and hold those in power accountable while exposing the flawed political and economic systems that allow for the global dehumanisation of disadvantaged communities. The alternative is to remain silent and allow a future where no one is safe.
🚨"We don’t have to immediately contract the flu when someone in America coughs."
"A brief reminder: When the Europeans conquered the American continent in the early 16th century, at a time when coyotes and grizzlies were still bidding each other good night where New York and Los Angeles would later appear – Raphael, Michelangelo and Leonardo were feverishly drawing, painting and building the Medici’s Florence, the spiritual center of the world. And this High Renaissance was itself just a "rebirth" of the venerated advanced civilizations of Greek and Roman antiquity a couple thousand years ago."
Andy Warhol, Big Mac, iPhone: It was a grand American epoch. But it’s over. Europe must finally emancipate itself – just not as awkwardly as Jürgen Habermas might like.
i don't know, but practically the whole old testament is about the israelites disobeying God and there are plenty of verses about not doing sorcery. so if you really believe God is telling you to roll dice to make a random decision, i guess you can do it, but that doesn't negate all the other instructions
@meowski are people who see visions of the future evil? are people with prophetic dreams evil? divination is just that with tools. God wouldnt bless certain people with the sight if it were evil. And whether its witchcraft or not depends on the practitioner. Its white magic regardless.
people can have divine visions if God and spirits speak to them. i don't consider that witchcraft. games of chance lead to compulsive irrational behavior. it's like staring into the abyss. not divinely inspired. God speaks when he wants not when you want
@meowski If God didnt want to speak to the querent through divination then fortunetelling would never work. think about it. no one can force God to share His/Her infinite knowledge of the past, present, and future. Also myself ive had both prophetic dreams and done entirely accurate tarot/oracle spreads.
yea fortune telling doesn't work. it works on the weak minded like all witchcraft. that's what witchcraft is- mind tricks. they just say a bunch of vague stuff and maybe something sounds true then next thing you know, you're burying money in a secret location
@meowski I used to be a skeptic like you. I still am skeptical of certain forms of divination like astrology and palmistry but cartomancy works. I could ask vriska to demonstrate with you but I bet you wouldnt even want to know your future if you could know it.
tarot doesn't interest me. i don't like to open myself up to such things. i don't gamble or play any games of chance either. (not to mention vriska isn't talking to me) thanks though

Attack on Hungarian Ambassador’s Vehicle (Athens, Greece)
Claim of responsibility for the attack on the Hungarian ambassador’s vehicle outside the Hungarian embassy
The trial of Maja T., a non-binary activist, begins in Budapest on March 6. It is a trial that takes place in the shadow of the fascism-antifascism conflict in Hungary going on for over a century.
The waves of the Russian Revolution of 1917, which swept through almost all of Europe, manifested themselves in Hungary with the creation of the socialist council democracy that overthrew the bourgeois regime in 1919.
It took the intervention of foreign powers to suppress the revolution and hand over power to the reactionary General Horthy, who established an authoritarian regime. World War II found Hungary siding with the fascist axis powers.
The looming defeat of fascism led the Horthy regime to secret negotiations with the Western Allies. Germany anticipated this development by occupying Hungary in 1944 and establishing a purely Nazi regime of the Crossed Arrows party.
The Red Army’s lightning advance in January 1945 encircled Budapest, trapping thousands of German SS and Hungarian Crossed Arrows men. When they attempted to escape in February, they were surrounded and annihilated, in a Hungarian Meligalas 2 like incident.
The fall of “established socialism” allowed the reconstituted Nazis to claim the “Day of Honor”, on the anniversary of the mass extermination of German and Hungarian Nazis, with their presence on the streets and fascist fanfare.
At the 2023 Nazi fiesta, in a coordinated action that appears to be the work of a multinational anti-fascist strike force, many Nazis were attacked in various parts of Budapest, with nine of them being seriously injured and the far-right Orban government launching repressive operations against anti-fascists. An operation that reflects the blatantly anti-immigrant, misogynistic and homophobic policies of the Hungarian state.
Hungary is just one of the examples of modern states in a world that is constantly changing. It is not an exception, but a prefiguration of the direction in which global domination is heading. After the end of the short fairy tale of globalization, of the “global village” that would constitute a capital “that has no borders”, the world seems to be entering, through a series of successive crises, a new phase of restoring closed up national borders – fortresses, of hyper-intensive armaments, militarism, intolerance, racism. This process presupposes and favors the shift of the political spectrum ever more “to the right”.
Almost all of the major powers today are either ruled by authoritarian regimes or by governments suffocating under the weight of the rising far right, implementing neoliberal, racist, anti-immigration policies. The image of one of the most economically and politically powerful people in the world greeting the crowds with a Hitler salute horribly encapsulates an aspect of the current era.
But like every era, this one has more than one face. The global anti-fascist, anti-state, anti-capitalist resistances are still present. Authority does not act alone and is shielding up by their fear of the internal enemy. Our own action, as a contribution to the international mosaic of resistances, is also an internationalist signal of struggle towards all the forces of radical anti-fascism. The huge mobilizations for the state crime of Tempi, where all sorts of fascists either did not dare to appear or were beaten where they made the mistake of showing their faces, are another hopeful message that nothing is fated to happen, that history can be written by the world of struggle.
To these pages of history belong the anti-fascists from Germany, Italy, Albania, and Syria who were targeted by Orban’s far-right government and remain hostages in Germany, Italy, and France.
Maja T. was extradited from Germany in a fast-track procedure. In a preliminary hearing in a Hungarian court in February, it defended its anti-fascist campaign and non-binary identity.
On the morning of March 4, anti-fascists awaited the arrival of the Hungarian ambassador’s black Mercedes outside the Hungarian embassy, at the intersection of Vas. Konstantinou and Amyntas street. Our hammers that shattered the windows of the embassy vehicle send a message of solidarity to Maja T. and all persecuted anti-fascists.

Fakir : Si tu devais conseiller, à partir de tes dix années sur le terrain, des pistes pour que la gauche essaie de se reconnecter avec les classes populaires, pour reparler à Séverine et Alex, des pistes pour que la gauche gagne, en somme ? Vincent Jarousseau : Déjà, il faudrait commencer tout simplement par aller parler aux gens. Non, attends : plus que parler, il faudrait commencer par écouter. Il y a un gouffre sociologique qui est en train de se creuser entre le vote à gauche et le vote RN. J’entends tous les jours « ce qui compte, c’est ce que j’ai dans mon porte-monnaie ». Je pense qu’il faut déconnecter la question de l’immigration du racisme. L’immigration est d’abord vue comme une concurrence sur le travail. Le facteur déterminant dans le vote RN, ça reste le niveau d’études, même s’il y a une généralisation du vote RN qui touche toutes les couches. Mais là où le diplôme est très faible, où le travail est le plus détruit, le moins protégé, le RN fait des scores très fort. La segmentation spatiale est doublée d’une segmentation sociale, avec l’atomisation de la classe ouvrière. On est beaucoup plus seuls. Donc ça passera par retisser les liens. La gauche serait bien inspirée de s’intéresser au monde du travail au sens large, s’intéresser à tout le monde, et arrêter de segmenter l’électorat en part de marché. On a arrêté de penser la question économique et sociale, le changement de nature du capitalisme, de plus en plus financier. Il faut qu’on refasse un peu d’économie. L’espoir pour la gauche, c’est que la fraternité populaire reste super forte.
Déjà lauréat de plusieurs prix, le photojournaliste Vincent Jarousseau vient de publier Dans les âmes et les urnes - dix ans à la rencontre de la France qui vote RN (Les Arènes).
ho en tant que rmiste, j'peux assurer qu'on est pas à égalité avec les migrants à qui vous offrez des vacances, quand je suis pas parti depuis 15 ans ... la gauche est tellement dans un délire antifrançais, que ca finira en nœud de boudin (créole probablement). Disons le clairement, pour nous vous êtes des traîtres, et y a rien à faire. Plus il y aura de francais dans la merde, plus ils observeront de délire totale, que ce soit chez leur assistante sociale, ou dans les assocs et autres aides, ou si t'es pas de la bonne couleur, c'est mort pour ta gueule. Peut etre une derniere chance pour eux, de s’apercevoir de la réalité , quand ils franchiront les portes d'un CCAS.
Et puis rever pas niveau antiracisme à defendre les arabo-musulmans... c'est 15 siecles d'esclavages et de haines. Ca ne marchera pas, votre société idéalisée va nous entrainer à la mort.
Un élève a été filmé en train de se faire frapper par d'autres adolescents à la sortie d'un collège de Vénissieux, lundi près de Lyon. Il serait victime de harcèlement scolaire.
Possible de donner des chiffres sérieux pour argumenter plutôt que dénigrer? En quoi la gauche est elle anti française? des exemples plutôt que des idées toute faites? sur les aides par exemple pourquoi les gens dans la merde persistent à cibler ceux qui sont encore plus dans la merde et qui représentent des sommes dérisoires comparées aux profits des actionnaires qui gagent sans travailler? j'ai du mal à comprendre qu'on vienne sur diaspora pour reproduire le même esprit que sur FB :des affirmation non fondée trop entendues et répétée comme des mantras plutôt que des échanges constructifs.

@ScruffyJunco This is an excellent question! Generally speaking, it is reported that the height for numerous trillium species is approximately 15-20 inches.
The origin, history, and use of common names is truly intriguing. From the research, it may appear that the giant trillium is perhaps not that giant after all. However, I can say that, at least anecdotally, where the western trillium often appears as a distinct, separate entity, even when found in close proximity to other western trilliums, the giant trillium seems to grow in a lush and sprawling manner, with leaves overlapping neighboring plants. The assemblage of flowering giant trilliums, along with the cascade of mottled giant trillium leaves is truly eye catching!
@ScruffyJunco Looks like the Jepson database needs to be accessed directly rather than via these links. This is an excellent resource and well worth a look. ucjeps.berkeley.edu/

Mercantilism is the capitalism of “finitudes”, a very nice term introduced (or perhaps coined?) by Orain which can refer to the realization that natural resources are finite or that the economic activity is perceived as a zero-sum game. (I will return to this at the end of the review.) Free trade would, by implication, correspond to the eras when our view of the world is more expansive, broader and more optimistic: we tend to believe that there will be (eventually) enough for all. Mercantilism is the world such that “there would not be enough for all”—the concluding sentence of the book.

Would you help a poor single-user Friendica server admin out and boost this post?
Boosting will increase the number of servers my server federates with.
Thanks!
EDIT: that is probably not exactly how it works, but it kinda depends on which of the myriad of ActivityPub servers is seeing the boost, and I haven't checked all of them on how they decide what to pull in. For sure, having someone follow an account on the friendica server will have that friendica server push updates to the server of the follower, but other than that? Who knows :)
Thanks for the overwhelming amount of boosts anyway, and thanks to those following :)
That works. Not going to get all semantic about it, but on a deep level "shame" implies personal responsibility and guilt, while "embarrassment" travels more easily on behalf of a larger participation, not a personal act. My take, FWIW.
"Original sin" if you want to layer that in (mythology/religion)
You're right, though many people sharing 'collective blame' &/or guilt truly worked towards a more desirable/sane/democratic outcome in the last election. And many sounded alarms. But but... the #cult is too big and too entrenched to have stopped his being elected, so not our personal fault, but our collective participation perhaps, in not calling out more crazy/illegal stuff early on. Many did.
alright this little rabbit trail is complete. i needed this additional ram support to press axially on wheels (to remove axial wobble). it should also work as a fulcrum for reaching inside spokes
Après s’être coordonné avec la Croix-Rouge internationale, 6 ambulances transportant 16 ambulanciers sont entrées dans la zone de Tel Al-Sultan à #Rafah, au sud de #Gaza. Ils ont disparu il y a deux jours. Aujourd'hui, il a été confirmé que les #FDI les ont tous exécutés, enterrés leurs corps et détruits leurs véhicules. Ce n'est pas de la légitime défense. Il ne s'agit pas du Hamas. Il s'agit d'un crime de guerre qui fait partie d'une campagne plus large de nettoyage ethnique et de génocide. L'ère de prétendre que les #États-Unis-Israël font partie du monde civilisé est bel et bien terminée.
This is so fucked. Imagine the reaction if Syria or Iran or North Korea were doing this shit. I looked around for the story in the NYT wondering whether this source had it wrong. Nothing. Looked around some more and found the AP and many reputable news sources reporting this.
Yeah, I know. This is just another story in the inhuman horror show that is Israel today as has been reported at length.
The western "democracies" look the other way because it's Israel and hey. There can be no criticism of Israel because of the holocaust. The WWII holocaust, that is, not what has happened in Gaza. People legally in the US get deported for criticizing Israel. Not sure but I don't remember hearing about anyone being arrested and deported for criticizing Palestinians.

On the Anniversary of Land Day, Palestinian Land is Not for Sale: PFLP
No to the slaughter of the land… No to the folding of banners. On the anniversary of Land Day… this land is Palestinian, not for sale, and we will never abandon it—no matter how long it takes.
To the masses of our proud Palestinian people… to the masses of our Arab nation… to the free people of the world,
On the 30th of March, we proudly and honorably remember the epic of the Eternal Land Day, when our people in the Naqab, the Triangle, the Galilee, and all parts of occupied Palestine since 1948 rose up on the land of their fathers and forefathers. With bare chests, they faced the zionist machinery of oppression in defense of their land, dignity, and existence. They etched with their blood the features of Palestinian identity and affirmed that the land remains Palestinian and the right remains firm—no matter how immense the challenges or how brutal and criminal this occupation becomes, even as it wages one of the most horrific genocidal wars in modern history.
On this great day, we salute our people in the homeland and the diaspora, especially our people in the occupied interior. We also salute our heroic prisoners steadfast in the enemy’s prisons and our martyrs who have paved the path of liberation and return with their blood. We affirm that our people, who have foiled all displacement schemes, will remain rooted in their land and will not leave—except to return to the cities and villages from which they were forcibly displaced.
O masses of our great people,
This criminal entity has intensified its massacres and policies of destruction and ethnic cleansing, in parallel with its attempts to steal the land and falsify history. Yet, it has always collided with the rock of steadfast Palestinian will, stretching from the Galilee to the Naqab, from the West Bank to Gaza, and from Al-Quds to the diaspora—where the resounding voice echoes: This land is not for sale, and we will never compromise it—no matter how long it takes.
And on this glorious occasion, we in the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine reaffirm the following truths:
First: The land is the source of our existence and the essence of our identity. For it, we offer the dearest sacrifices. It is the symbol of our identity and the heart of our struggle with the occupier. Resistance in all its forms is a sacred and legitimate right to defend this eternal and historical right to our land. We will not retreat in the face of zionist and Western schemes aiming to liquidate our cause, displace our people, erase our identity, and alter the features of our land. We will stand with unwavering will and determination to defend our historical rights, no matter the sacrifices.
Second: Palestine is not for sale. No conspiracy will succeed in displacing our people—whether through the scheme of turning Gaza into the “Eastern Riviera” after expelling its population, or by forcing West Bank residents into Jordan, or through other satanic, criminal plans. To the American-zionist enemy, we say: Palestine, from the river to the sea, is the past, present, and future. It will forever belong to the Palestinian people and remain the beating heart of the East, no matter how immense the plots and threats of the American and zionist administrations become.
Third: Through national unity, we can confront the crimes of genocide, displacement, and uprooting, and remain steadfast in the face of occupation. The struggle against this criminal enemy requires unifying ranks, setting aside differences, and moving forward toward genuine national unity that places the interest of Palestine above all else. In this context, we warn against the enemy’s attempts—and its agents’—to inflame internal contradictions and plunge the Palestinian arena into more division and fragmentation. We must recognize the gravity of this moment and work together to unify in confronting these plans.
Fourth: What is happening today in Gaza—the resumption of genocide, intensification of the blockade, and a war of starvation under American cover after a period of pause—is a continuation of the policy of war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu, who seeks to sustain the aggression to preserve the stability of his ruling coalition at the expense of innocent blood. In the face of this escalation and the horrific crimes being committed around the clock in Gaza, the resistance will continue using all available options to stop the aggression and compel the occupation to implement the understandings and agreements it has violated. This is primarily an Arab responsibility, which demands that they move beyond weakness and inaction, and work seriously to end the aggression and break the siege—using every pressure tool at their disposal to stop this criminal war. Fifth: Palestine will remain the compass of the nation and the free people of the world in the battle of truth against oppression and occupation. This requires intensifying the struggle against normalization and activating all forms of boycott against the occupation, as well as escalating pressure to stop the aggression and hold the occupation leaders and their supporters accountable as war criminals. Amid the decline in popular momentum, the time has come to revive it in the streets, universities, and unions, and to resume massive demonstrations around the world in support of our steadfast people facing genocide.
Sixth: We renew our call to our people in the occupied interior to boycott the occupation’s institutions that legitimize its crimes, genocidal wars, aggressive schemes, and racist laws. Boycott is a decisive national message in confronting displacement, uprooting, Judaization, normalization, and policies of oppression and racial discrimination. It is an affirmation of Palestinian identity in the face of attempts to portray the occupation as a democratic state, while in reality, it is a settler-colonial entity founded on killing, massacres, and destruction, driven by dark messianic Torah-based tendencies.
O our people everywhere,
Land Day is a pledge and loyalty—a message to the usurper that we remain here, like the olives of the Galilee, the rocks of Carmel, the oranges of Yaffa, and the sea of Gaza. We renew our commitment to our people, martyrs, female prisoners, and prisoners to continue the path of resistance and struggle until Palestine is free from the river to the sea.
Long live Palestine, free and Arab… Glory to the martyrs… Freedom to the prisoners… and return is a right that does not expire.

Plastic waste is a global crisis, with over 300 million tons produced annually and less than 10% recycled. Traditional disposal methods like incineration and landfilling contribute to pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, and microplastic proliferation. Pyrolysis—a thermochemical process that breaks down plastics into valuable byproducts—emerges as a sustainable solution aligned with three core principles: safety, environmental protection, and resource recovery. This blog explores these principles and how pyrolysis addresses them.
Safety: Mitigating Risks in Every Step Safety is paramount in plastic pyrolysis due to the process’s high temperatures, flammable gases, and potential for toxic emissions. A safe pyrolysis system minimizes risks to operators, communities, and ecosystems through:
Closed-Loop Systems Modern pyrolysis reactors operate in sealed environments to prevent leaks of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) or hazardous gases like hydrogen chloride (from PVC). Automated controls monitor temperature and pressure, reducing human error.
Emission Control Pyrolysis generates syngas (CO, H₂, CH₄) and liquid hydrocarbons, but incomplete combustion can produce pollutants like dioxins or soot. Advanced systems integrate scrubbers, filters, and catalytic converters to ensure emissions meet strict air quality standards (e.g., EPA’s MACT rules or EU’s BREF guidelines).
Waste Management Residual solids (char) and wastewater are treated to remove heavy metals or additives before disposal or reuse. For example, char can be stabilized via solidification to prevent leaching. By prioritizing safety, pyrolysis facilities avoid accidents and public health concerns, fostering community acceptance.
Environmental Protection: Reducing Carbon Footprint and Pollution Pyrolysis aligns with environmental goals by diverting plastics from landfills and reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Here’s how it contributes:
Lower Carbon Emissions Compared to incineration, plastic pyrolysis plant emits fewer greenhouse gases (CO₂, N₂O) because it avoids direct combustion. The process can even be carbon-negative if energy is derived from renewable sources (e.g., solar-powered reactors).
Minimizing Microplastics Pyrolysis breaks down plastics at the molecular level, eliminating microplastics from entering oceans or soil. This contrasts with mechanical recycling, which often fragments plastics into smaller particles.
Hazardous Chemicals Elimination High temperatures (300–800°C) in pyrolysis destroy persistent organic pollutants (POPs) like PCBs and PBDEs, reducing their environmental impact.
Resource Recovery: Closing the Plastic Loop Pyrolysis transforms waste plastics into valuable resources, supporting a circular economy:
Liquid Hydrocarbons Plastics decompose into pyrolysis oil, a crude-like substance that can be refined into gasoline, diesel, or jet fuel. For example, 1 ton of mixed plastics yields 600–800 liters of oil.
Syngas The gaseous byproduct can be used to power the pyrolysis process itself or generate electricity, offsetting fossil fuel use.
Carbon Black Residual char can replace fossil-derived carbon black in rubber or ink production, reducing deforestation for biomass sourcing.
This “waste-to-wealth” model not only cuts virgin resource extraction but also creates economic opportunities.
guys i think i figured out how to prevent youtube from showing (or waiting for adblocked) ads in firefox. this is a temporary workaround until they fix the freetube issue.
- open freetube like normal to get your list of videos - open a firefox window - on each vid in freetube, use the ... open in browser link. (this will show an ad once) - after each video, leave that tab open, and open the next video in a new tab - if you leave the previous tab open, the new tab won't show an ad at the start
A combination of the resource stages, ideally farm the highest levels for the best resources, there's character xp, weapon xp, leveling stuff, equipment, and Sardis gold, there's an event going on that gives you an extra 120 energy every day right now so yeah just use it asap and you'll eventually get there
