Hallo auch,

ich hab mal ne Frage von wegen fehlendem #Wohnraum - #Mietexplosion ggb leerstehenden Häusern pipapo.

Wohne Nähe Treis-Karden: 4-5 km runter zum Bahnhof/Koblenz 25 Minuten per Auto oder Bahn/10 Minuten zur A48/knappe Stunde bis Bonn oder volle Stunde bis Mainz/Wiesbaden.

Berufe: Landwirtschaft, KFZ Werkstätten, Altenpflege, da die Dörfer aussterben.

Letzteres trifft mich jetzt auch, wo ich um Tipps frage: 65 Jahre und in Haus allein wohnend - das Dach allein hat wahrscheinlich knapp 200 qm für parties. Garten 350 qm für Bewirtschaftung.

Letztes Jahr ne Odyssee in KKH-Aufenthalten ... als ich zurück kam, war es ein Meer an Brennesseln.
Weder das Haus noch der Garten ist noch zu schaffen. Es gibt hier in der Region viele Häuser, die genauso aussehen.

Heute bekomme ich mal wieder nen Brief, dass die Regenrinne voller Unkraut ist - Blödsinn, wobei ich mit den Nachbarn ziemlich gut klar komme. Sie tolerieren mich - immerhin bin ich ruhig, mach keinen Ärger - aber eben die Regenrinne... LOL.

Würde die Leute hier im Dorf aber dennoch als ziemlich tolerant ansehen.

Jedenfalls muss ich hier weg. Auf Pepper-Papers (oder wie das heisst) werden einige Fallen aufgezeigt, wennste vermietest. Vielleicht #Niessbrauch - wo ich dann immer mal wieder mich in nem kleinen Raum einquartiere, wenn mir danach ist ? (Dann aber die Frage, ob ich die Kosten alle alleine stemme - eher nicht...irgendwas fifty-fifty....)

Ich war auf der Ukraine-Liste (natürlich auch eigennützig gedacht, dass sie mir was helfen - aber bestimmte Leute haben mich anscheinend gecancelt...)

Habt Ihr Ideen ?
Transition - alternative Bewirtschaftung wahrscheinlich zu klein ?
MigrantInnen ?
Gay-Farmers ?
Obdachlosen-Inis ?

Ich bin in RLP vor 20 Jahren berufsmässig gestrandet, sollte aber aus gesundheitlichen Gründen wieder in eine grössere Stadt ziehen (vorzugsweise NRW)... Wenn die Mieten nicht so hoch wären... Vielleicht auch in ne #altersgerechte-Wohnung (wegen der Beine....)

Z.Z. sieht das hier verboten aus - normalerweise mach ich als Gastgeber in Sachen backbacker/couchsurfing.... aber z.Z. geht's nicht.

Was irgendwie alternative Lebensformen betrifft ist es in #RLP skurril auch ziemlich für die Katze... Im Hunsrück sind mehr Leute, die so als #Seniorenkommune n Höfe gepachtet haben...
Alternativen muss mensch hier wirklich suchen. Dagegen ist Bayern sozialistisch - grins...

Irgendwelche links oder Ideen ? Ich hab den Kasten samt Garten am Hals und will ihn loswerden - am besten, wenn andere was davon haben.

Saludos
Andreas

noch so ein Aspekt, den Ihr als nächste Generation an „Alten“ noch erleben werdet:
ich bin ja Teil dieser „Boomer-Generation“: die sind jetzt alle am suchen....
Wartelisten überall bei 60 plus
wahrscheinlich realistischer, ne altengerechte Mietwohung zu suchen (erschwinglich.. wo ?? OMG !) statt auf MGH oder Wohnprojekte zu hoffen...

Soviet style mass apartment complexes to combat homelessness but you have to download an app to get in and out, and the app collects and sells all your data. There's a concierge who does spot checks but they accept bribes in fresh fruit, vegetables and old N64 games.

The internets. Multiple internets, like different streaming services and you need to pay a subscription to each one to access all the websites.

Rail guns. Everyone will have a rail gun. It will be awesome.

Listen guys, Epstein did nothing wrong. He was falsely accused and wrongfully hung, just like Leo Frank. And "Frank"ly, you should be ashamed of yourselved for perpetuating this sort of antisemitism. 112 years later and you are just as bad as your racist grandfathers were.

Now lets focus on the real issues, like black unemployment, hard working mexicans, and freeing the middle east from islam so we can import Persian girls to get blacked for the gooning reels. Stop trying to bring America down with this fake child rape blackmail scandal.

Ce que contient l’accord historique sur l’avenir de la Kanaky-Nouvelle-Calédonie

humanite.fr/monde/flnks/ce-que…

Au bout de dix jours de négociations serrées, un accord historique a été signé par l’État et les représentants des forces politiques de l’archipel pour l’avenir politique, institutionnel, social et économique du territoire. L’avancée majeure est la création d’un « État de Nouvelle-Calédonie » souverain.

Soooo, it looks like my old old old MOTU ultralite mk1 FireWire audio interface didn’t enjoy last nights’ thunderstorms. The headphone output doesn’t seem to be working any more. Guess after all these years (15? 20?) and a couple of expensive Apple dongles, I might have to finally buy a new interface. I’ll probably stick with MOTU and get an M4.

You invented a time machime to go to the future to find out what the homework assignments would be so you could go back to your present time and complete them before they were assigned. Butmyou made mistake and submitted the future homework one day and your tescher was confused. She looked in her syllabus and realized that homework wasnt goimg to be assigned for 6 more weeks.

I was smart, but also kind of a punk. It led to a few situations like the one above where I got the shaft merely due to immature adults trying to pound the nail that stuck out. I almost didn't graduate. I had all A's but had an English teacher that had a personal beef with me and was going to fail me. In that case, I actually had two allies. A football coach who had been there for decades and another English teacher. They cornered the faggot and told him if he didn't pass me they were going to take him to the superintendent and use their superior tenure and political clout to get him terminated, and then follow up by pulling strings with the union to see that he never gets reinstated or hired anywhere else. He passed me.

If I learned anything though, it's that high school doesn't really matter and some parents put way too much emphasis on it. I still went to a top law school nonetheless. It didn't real matter in the big scheme of things, though getting fucked hard for standard kid behavior was a motivator to become a lawyer. Now when I tell people to go fuck themselves, they usually do.
in reply to 🐘🐘 Humpleupagus 🐘🐘

I went to school in Massachusetts. Wasn't any smarter than I am now, but I was definitely a punk. I felt like most of my teachers were too try-hard-do-good to have a personal vendetta against a kid (which for a grown man is serious faggot behavior). Maybe it was just because of my ethnic gift for getting on peoples' good side 🍀 🇮🇪 . Did last 4 years in a tech school and those guys were way more chill.

🎵 L Y R I C S 🎵:
You're talking shit for the hell of it
Addicted to betrayal, but you're relevant
You're terrified to look down
'Cause if you dare, you'll see the glare
Of everyone you burned just to get there
It's coming back around

And I keep my side of the street clean
You wouldn't know what I mean

'Cause karma is my boyfriend
Karma is a god
Karma is the breeze in my hair on the weekend
Karma's a relaxing thought
Aren't you envious that for you it's not?
Sweet like honey, karma is a cat
Purring in my lap 'cause it loves me
Flexing like a goddamn acrobat
Me and karma vibe like that

Spider-boy, king of thieves
Weave your little webs of opacity
My pennies made your crown
Trick me once, trick me twice
Don't you know that cash ain't the only price?
It's coming back around

And I keep my side of the street clean
You wouldn't know what I mean

'Cause karma is my boyfriend
Karma is a god
Karma is the breeze in my hair on the weekend
Karma's a relaxing thought
Aren't you envious that for you it's not?
Sweet like honey, karma is a cat
Purring in my lap 'cause it loves me
Flexing like a goddamn acrobat
Me and karma vibe like that

Ask me what I learned from all those years
Ask me what I earned from all those tears
Ask me why so many fade, but I'm still here
(I'm still, I'm still here)

'Cause karma is the thunder
Rattling your ground
Karma's on your scent like a bounty hunter
Karma's gonna track you down
Step by step from town to town
Sweet like justice, karma is a queen
Karma takes all my friends to the summit
Karma is the guy on the screen
Coming straight home to me

'Cause karma is my boyfriend (karma is my boyfriend)
Karma is a god
Karma is the breeze in my hair on the weekend (weekend)
Karma's a relaxing thought
Aren't you envious that for you it's not?
Sweet like honey, karma is a cat
Purring in my lap 'cause it loves me
Flexing like a goddamn acrobat
Me and karma vibe like that

Karma is my boyfriend
Karma is a god
Mm-hm
Karma's a relaxing thought

"Mastermind" is a clever and introspective track from Taylor Swift's album "Midnights," co-written with Jack Antonoff. The song delves into themes of strategy and intention in relationships, showcasing Swift's sharp songwriting and unique perspective. Its engaging production and thoughtful lyrics make it a standout piece.

🎵 L Y R I C S 🎵:
Once upon a time
The planets and the fates and all the stars aligned
You and I ended up in the same room at the same time

And the touch of a hand lit the fuse
Of a chain reaction of countermoves
To assess the equation of you
Checkmate, I couldn't lose

What if I told you none of it was accidental?
And the first night that you saw me
Nothing was gonna stop me
I laid the groundwork, and then just like clockwork
The dominoes cascaded in a line
What if I told you I'm a mastermind?
And now you're mine
It was all by design
'Cause I'm a mastermind

You see, all the wisest women had to do it this way
'Cause we were born to be the pawn in every lover's game

If you fail to plan, you plan to fail
Strategy sets the scene for the tale
I'm the wind in our free-flowing sails
And the liquor in our cocktails

What if I told you none of it was accidental?
And the first night that you saw me, I knew I wanted your body
I laid the groundwork, and then just like clockwork
The dominoes cascaded in a line
What if I told you I'm a mastermind?
And now you're mine
It was all my design
'Cause I'm a mastermind

No one wanted to play with me as a little kid
So I've been scheming like a criminal ever since
To make them love me and make it seem effortless
This is the first time I've felt the need to confess
And I swear
I'm only cryptic and Machiavellian 'cause I care

So I told you none of it was accidental?
And the first night that you saw me
Nothing was gonna stop me
I laid the groundwork, and then saw a wide smirk
On your face, you knew the entire time
You knew that I'm a mastermind
And now you're mine
Yeah, all you did was smile
'Cause I'm a mastermind

The song metaphorically explores the struggles and resilience in relationships, showcasing Swift's lyrical depth and emotional storytelling. Its atmospheric soundscape enhances the powerful message.

🎵 L Y R I C S 🎵:
My knuckles were bruised like violets
Sucker punching walls, cursed you as I sleep talked
Spineless in my tomb of silence
Tore your banners down, took the battle underground
And maybe it was egos swinging
Maybe it was her
Flashes of the battle come back to me in a blur

All that bloodshed, crimson clover
Uh-huh, sweet dream was over
My hand was the one you reached for
All throughout the Great War
Always remember, uh-huh
Tears on the letter
I vowed not to cry anymore
If we survived the Great War

You drew up some good faith treaties
I drew curtains closed, drank my poison all alone
You said I have to trust more freely
But diesel is desire, you were playing with fire
And maybe it's the past that's talking
Screaming from the crypt
Telling me to punish you for things you never did
So I justified it

All that bloodshed, crimson clover
Uh-huh, the bombs were closer
My hand was the one you reached for
All throughout the Great War
Always remember, uh-huh
The burning embers
I vowed not to fight anymore
If we survived the Great War
Uh-huh, uh-huh

It turned into something bigger
Somewhere in the haze, got a sense I'd been betrayed
Your finger on my hairpin triggers
Soldier down on that icy ground
Looked up at me with honor and truth
Broken and blue, so I called off the troops
That was the night I nearly lost you
I really thought I'd lost you

We can plant a memory garden
Say a solemn prayer, place a poppy in my hair
There's no morning glory, it was war, it wasn't fair
And we will never go back to that

Bloodshed, crimson clover
Uh-huh, the worst was over
My hand was the one you reached for
All throughout the Great War
Always remember, uh-huh
We're burned for better
I vowed I would always be yours
'Cause we survived the Great War

Uh-huh, uh-huh
I will always be yours
'Cause we survived the Great War
Uh-huh
I vowed I will always be yours

The song offers introspective advice and reflections, showcasing Swift's lyrical wisdom and emotional depth. Its soothing melody and poignant lyrics create a touching listening experience.

🎵 L Y R I C S 🎵:
Dear reader
If it feels like a trap, you're already in one
Dear reader
Get out your map, pick somewhere and just run
Dear reader
Burn all the files, desert all your past lives
And if you don't recognize yourself
That means you did it right

Never take advice from someone who's falling apart
Never take advice from someone who's falling apart
(You should find another)

Dear reader
Bend when you can, snap when you have to
Dear reader
You don't have to answer, just 'cause they asked you
(You should find another)
Dear reader
The greatest of luxuries is your secrets
Dear reader
When you aim at the devil, make sure you don't miss

Never take advice from someone who's falling apart
Never take advice from someone who's falling apart

So I wander through these nights
I prefer hiding in plain sight
My fourth drink in my hand
These desperate prayers of a cursed man
Spilling out to you for free
But darling, darling, please
You wouldn't take my word for it
If you knew who was talking

If you knew where I was walking
To a house, not a home, all alone 'cause nobody's there
Where I pace in my pen and
My friends found friends who care
No one sees when you lose
When you're playing solitaire

You should find another guiding light
Guiding light
But I shine so bright
You should find another guiding light
Guiding light
But I shine so bright

You should find another
You should find another
Guiding light
But I shine so bright
You should find another

You should find another

Co-written with Jack Antonoff and Lana Del Rey, the song captures the enchanting feeling of unexpected love, blending the unique styles of both artists. Its dreamy sound and evocative lyrics create a captivating listening experience.

🎵 L Y R I C S 🎵:
One night a few moons ago I
Saw flecks of what could've been lights
But it might just have been you
Passing by unbeknownst to me
Life is emotionally abusive
And time can't stop me quite like you did
And my flight was awful, thanks for asking
I'm unglued, thanks to you

And it's like snow at the beach
Weird, but fuckin' beautiful
Flying in a dream
Stars by the pocketful
You wanting me
Tonight feels impossible
But it's comin' down, no sound, it's all around
Like snow on the beach
Like snow on the beach
Like snow on the beach
Like snow

This scene feels like what I once saw on a screen
I searched 'aurora borealis green'
I've never seen
Someone lit from within
Blurring out my periphery
My smile is like I won a contest
And to hide that would be so dishonest
And it's fine to fake it 'til you make it
'Til you do
'Til it's true

Now it's like snow at the beach
Weird, but fuckin' beautiful
Flying in a dream
Stars by the pocketful
You wanting me
Tonight feels impossible
But it's comin' down, no sound, it's all around
Like snow on the beach
Like snow on the beach
Like snow on the beach
Like snow

I can't speak, afraid to jinx it
I don't even dare to wish it
But your eyes are flying saucers from another planet
Now I'm all for you like Janet
Can this be a real thing? Can it?

Are we falling like
Snow at the beach
Weird, but fuckin' beautiful
Flying in a dream
Stars by the pocketful
You wanting me
Tonight feels impossible
But it's comin' down, no sound, it's all around
Like snow on the beach
Like snow on the beach
Like snow on the beach
Like snow
But it's comin' down, no sound, it's all around

Like snow on the beach (down, it's comin' down, it's comin' down, it's comin' down)
Like snow on the beach
(It's comin' down, it's comin' down, it's comin' down, it's comin' down)
(It's comin' down, it's comin' down, it's comin' down, it's comin' down)

I am impressed (and touched) by the how many are speaking out in defense of my work. Standing united against abuse is critical, and even more critical is to stop the genocide.
TOGETHER WE CAN.

18 brave people will depart today on a ship called "Handala" for Gaza. It is part of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition. Volunteer medics, lawyers, social justice activists, journalists, and community organizers will carry life-saving humanitarian aid and a message of solidarity from the people around the world refusing to stay silent as Gaza is starved, bombed, and buried under rubble.

It's kind of already known, I mean the flight logs and such are public, we've seen some lists before, and people who were not there will vehemently deny it and those denials won't fall apart under scrutiny.

The issue is not so much that the list is unreleased, but that the DoJ is unwilling to pursue prosecution of these people...

🎵 L Y R I C S 🎵:
Watchin' every motion in my foolish lover's game
On this endless ocean, finally lovers know no shame
Turning and returning to some secret place inside
Watchin' in slow motion as you turn around and say

"Take my breath away"

Take my breath away

Watchin', I keep waiting, still anticipating love
Never hesitating to become the fated ones
Turning and returning to some secret place to hide
Watchin' in slow motion as you turn to me and say

"My love, take my breath away"

Through the hourglass, I saw you
In time, you slipped away
When the mirror crashed, I called you
And turned to hear you say
"If only for today, I am unafraid"

Take my breath away

Take my breath away

Watchin' every motion in this foolish lover's game
Haunted by the notion, somewhere there's a love in flames
Turning and returning to some secret place inside
Watchin' in slow motion as you turn my way and say

"Take my breath away"
My love, take my breath away
My love, take my breath away, my love
You're mine, take my breath away, yeah, my love

Jeff Bezos se marie dans un déluge de luxe à Venise, Ivanka Trump et son mari achètent une île: les ultrariches exhibent leur richesse sans complexes, en se fichant du sort de la planète. Décryptage de leur mode de fonctionnement avec Dahlia Namian, auteure de "La société de provocation".

Publié le 13-07-2025 à 08h08

Quelque deux cents invités arrivés à Venise à bord de 95 jets privés et 9 yachts pour trois jours de fête : le récent mariage de Jeff Bezos, patron et fondateur d'Amazon, et de Lauren Sanchez, présentatrice télé, a été un étalage de richesse hors normes. Un an plus tôt, Ivanka Trump, la fille du président américain, et son mari s'offraient une île de la Méditerranée. Montant de la transaction : 1 milliard de dollars. Sociologue dont les travaux portent sur la pauvreté et l'exclusion, professeure à l'École de travail social de l'Université d'Ottawa, Dahlia Namian a publié en 2023 La société de provocation dans lequel elle pourfend la démesure et l'exhibitionnisme du 1 % de la population la plus riche de la planète. Elle y analyse aussi les diverses façons dont cette caste nuit à notre planète et à ses habitants.

Le récent mariage de Jeff Bezos a été jugé par certains d'autant plus indécent que son théâtre, Venise, est menacé par le dérèglement climatique. Qu'en avez-vous pensé ?

Ce mariage est effectivement un exemple de ce que j'ai appelé la société de provocation. Ce fut une démonstration, dans toute sa splendeur, de la démesure de la richesse, d'une porno-opulence qui est à son meilleur. On a vécu une démonstration de toute la domination symbolique, économique et culturelle de ce 1 % des plus riches de la planète. Jusqu'à récemment, ils cherchaient plutôt à cacher leur richesse, et leurs mariages se faisaient généralement dans la discrétion. Ce n'est plus du tout le cas : les puissants paradent, et c'est presque une parade militaire. Ce qui constitue un manifeste de l'impunité de la richesse. On est en train de célébrer une phase du capitalisme global qui outrepasse toutes les règles démocratiques. Et on voit là une élite qui a cessé de se justifier, d'essayer de convaincre, et qui dit "on se fout de ce que vous pensez". Peu importent les conséquences sur la planète.

Pendant ce temps, une partie des 99 autres % regarde, captivée. Qu'est-ce qui fascine chez ces ultra-riches ?

Je pense qu'aujourd'hui, on aime les regarder pour les critiquer. Au Québec, il y a une série d'émissions portant sur les hommes les plus riches, qui montrent tous les gadgets qu'ils aiment. On a ainsi vu la quarantaine de Ferrari que possède le magnat de l'immobilier Luc Poirier. Une autre série s'intéresse aux femmes de conjoints ultrariches. On sait que cela fascine, que cela booste l'audience et génère du clic sur le web. Mais je pense que cette fascination est nourrie par la colère. On entend tout de même un discours très critique envers cette oligarchie, surtout depuis la réélection de Donald Trump.

Votre livre emprunte son titre, "La société de provocation", à Romain Gary. Pourquoi ce choix ?

Je trouvais cette expression pertinente pour décrire cet ordre social qui permet, en toute impunité, au 1 % le mieux nanti de se livrer à toutes les formes de provocation, de décomplexer leur richesse, en érigeant leurs excès de consommation presque comme une vertu, en allant à l'encontre des règles élémentaires de la démocratie, au moment où la planète s'enflamme. La nouveauté, c'est qu'on a rarement rencontré aussi peu de résistance : toutes les tentatives concrètes pour freiner cette accumulation extrême de richesse n'aboutissent à rien. On l'a encore vu récemment au sommet du G7 : le seul dispositif de justice fiscale qui existait est tombé à l'eau. Le Canada s'est plié aux demandes de Trump concernant la taxe sur tous les services du style GAFAM. Dans l'Histoire, il y a toujours eu une caste de gens très riches qui concentraient beaucoup de pouvoir, mais la nouveauté c'est que, malgré leurs multiples provocations, il n'y a pas de volonté politique de les freiner. Un autre élément à relever est qu'ils sont plus résilients face aux crises. On l'a vu en 2008, lors de la crise économique mondiale, puis avec le Covid : ils ont perdu un peu d'argent au départ, mais ont très vite retrouvé leur niveau de richesse. Et depuis la pandémie, on constate qu'il progresse encore.

Dans un monde bouleversé par des catastrophes sociales et écologiques sans précédent, les ultrariches essaient de construire leurs propres paradis en empruntant les chemins de la mer.

Dans votre livre, vous évoquez notamment le business des yachts, qui n'a jamais été aussi florissant, avec des bateaux pouvant coûter jusqu'à 600 ou 700 millions de dollars. Selon vous, le superyacht est "le symbole d'une classe dominante et ouverte sur le monde". Une manière, aussi, de s'extraire de la société et de vivre dans sa bulle ?

Effectivement. L'exemple des yachts est parlant, mais on peut aussi parler de leur velléité de se retirer du monde en cherchant à créer des villes privées ou des espaces en mer, tout comme en colonisant l'espace et Mars. Les villes privées promettent aux élus du capitalisme l'éden dont ils rêvent : une espace qui échappe aux contraintes de l'État, avec ses infâmes lois fiscales, ses terribles lois du travail et ses ingrates règles environnementales et civiques. C'est une vision très libertaire où les riches pourraient vivre dans un entre-soi et échapper à toutes les lois et toutes les règles qui découlent des contraintes d'un vivre-ensemble démocratique. C'est assez clair chez Musk et ceux qui le suivent, dans la Silicon Valley ou ailleurs.

Il y a un an, Ivanka Trump a acheté une île albanaise d'exception, Sazan, en pleine Méditerranée. Son projet est d'y construire un complexe hôtelier de luxe, mais on peut aussi penser qu'elle s'offre un espace de repli, disponible en cas de besoin.

Dans un monde bouleversé par des catastrophes sociales et écologiques sans précédent, les ultrariches essaient de construire leurs propres paradis en empruntant les chemins de la mer. Ils cherchent à prendre la fuite et à se retirer du monde de diverses façons. J'écoutais il y a peu une journaliste de The Atlantic qui s'intéresse à eux. Elle expliquait que, pendant la pandémie, ce que les ultrariches avaient détesté plus que tout, c'est de ne plus pouvoir se déplacer. Rester chez eux était quelque chose de presque insupportable. Il existe un champ de la psychologie sociale qui s'intéresse au comportement des élites et qui a analysé le fait que, lorsque les mesures de restrictions liées au Covid sont tombées, le désir de n'en faire qu'à leur tête s'est encore amplifié. C'est un peu la preuve que l'argent achète tout, ce que l'on constate de plus en plus.

mishal reshared this.

d4a just talked about the Ogle 100mpg carburetor youtube.com/watch?v=icprC7G_q8…

His argument is INCREDIBLY lacking. He basically says "yeah you can do that but it's not practical".

Here's my comment on the video:

Okay, I have to bring this up. Ogle's story, and your story, both have a problem. What is the thermal efficiency of a Ford Galaxy 500 that can do 100mpg?! Lets say it's a 10% efficient engine, which is a low-ball even for the 1970s, and lets say it gets 10mpg out of the factory. Just dumb back-of-the-napkin math says taking that engine to 100mpg is taking it to 100% efficiency.

Okay, maybe you don't like my dumb math, lets try it another way: We know what it's like to put a 40% efficient engine into a car like that, because of the good ol' TDI swap. You get about 30mpg. So you're saying he got to something more efficient than a TDI? How much more efficient? Is more than 60% efficiency even physically realistic? Lets say you have a 90% efficient engine, where are you getting the heat to warm up the fuel? That thing's going to run stone cold!

The problem with Ogle's carburetor is not that it "works but is unrealistic", the problem is that either Ogle is a fraud, or he tapped into some source of energy which he completely did not understand. If for example he was able to somehow trigger a small amount of hydrogen fusion during the combustion then all of the math easily works. But if we're just talking about more efficiently using the chemical energy in a gallon of gasoline, that's just not possible...

From 2019: On #WillemVanSpronsen’s Action against the #NorthwestDetentionCenter in #TacomaWashington

Including the Full Text of His Final Statement

2019-07-14

Excerpt: "On July 13, Willem Van Spronsen was killed by police while apparently taking action to disable the fleet of buses that serve the Northwest Detention Center, a private immigration detainment facility. His final statement, reproduced below, conveys that he was acting in response to the continuous raids and deportations carried out by Immigration Customs and Enforcement (ICE). His action occurred on the one-year anniversary of a hunger strike inside the Northwest Detention Center and an encampment outside. You can read a list of other acts of resistance that have occurred inside the Northwest Detention Center here.

"We understand why Willem Van Spronsen decided to give his life to interrupt the violence that is perpetrated against undocumented people in the United States every day.

"It is not hyperbole to say that the #ICERaids are targeting our friends and neighbors, people who have lived and worked alongside us for years or even decades. The vulnerability of long-term undocumented people as a hyper-exploitable class has helped billionaires like #DonaldTrump to profit even more than they could have by legal means. To put the icing on the cake, #capitalists then turn to the other workers they are exploiting and tell them that the poverty and misfortunes they experience are the fault of those who are poorer and more oppressed than them. It’s hard to imagine a more cynical strategy.

"The disparity in rights between the documented and undocumented is a construct—just as the disparity in value that the #Nazis constructed between Jewish people and gentiles was a construct. Both are mere inventions; they have no intrinsic existence except as a means for a powerful group to justify violence against a less powerful group. Those who justify obedience to the law as a good in itself stand alongside the Nazis whose laws condemned millions to the death camps, not to mention the racists who passed the #FugitiveSlaveAct and the #JimCrowLaws in the American South.

"Laws are just constructs. They have no value in and of themselves. They often serve to legitimize injustice that people would otherwise take action to oppose.

"The further that the proponents of racist violence are permitted to legitimize invented concepts like slavery and citizenship, the more violence they will perpetrate—up to and including roundups, concentration camps, and mass extermination. We have seen this before, in Nazi Germany and elsewhere, and we are seeing it again today in the United States. The thousands of deaths that take place in the borderlands and the thousands murdered by police are just a foretaste of what is possible."

‘It’s too late’: David Suzuki says the fight against climate change is lost

ipolitics.ca/2025/07/02/its-to…

"We have failed to shift the narrative and we are still caught up in the same legal, economic and political systems," said David Suzuki in an exclusive interview with iPolitics. "For me, what we've got to do now is hunker down."
I’m not giving up on the immediate years, but the focus on politics, economics, and law are all destined to fail because they are based around humans. They’re designed to guide humans, but we’ve left out the foundation of our existence, which is nature, clean air, pure water, rich soil, food, and sunlight. That’s the foundation of the way we live and, when we construct legal, economic and political systems, they have to be built around protecting those very things, but they’re not.

Okay here is my very simple concept for a #FediCard - a "business card" that encourages people to join the #Fediverse and links to @_elena 's explanatory video.

My idea is that people can hand these out at #protests, political organizations, and so forth - where politically active people gather who already have had bad experiences with commercial social media.

The back side could be customized further to list an instance which is most relevant to the place where you want to share them - for example, I want to print a variant for the gruene.social #Mastodon instance.

I will certainly try to apply my meagre #design skills to make this more appealing, but first I wanted to hear what you all think of this concept, and what your suggestions for improvement are.

(Note: If you want to play around with the design, I have made it available in #SVG / #Inkscape format. The template has the 85 x 55 mm size for European business cards, so you will want to adjust it for other regions.)

@JoBlakely I definitely like this being a one-pager!

The biggest challenge here is that the site has been translated to over 20 languages, all manual work by volunteers, no machine or AI translation involved.

So as you can imagine the impact this has on content updates.

Still, let me give this a bit more thought and see how I can best implement some of this feedback.
