New at my Patreon... Last time I was in Switzerland, I took a train to the town of Meiringen - and visited a painstaking replica of Sherlock Holmes' sitting room:
The greatest adventure is what lies ahead.
Today and tomorrow are yet to be said.
The chances, the changes are all yours to make.
The mold of your life is in your hands to break.

Having enough electricity in winter is the big challenge for climate neutrality in 2050. This requires gigantic – electricity storage systems or new nuclear power plants, says author Andreas Züttel. It is an explosive result: If Switzerland wants to be climate neutral in 2050, building six to eight #nuclear power plants is the cheapest alternative. That’s how it stands in a study a team led by Andreas Züttel, who researches at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL).
"The First Peace Summit for Ukraine is in June — and Canada will be there," Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau wrote on X. "I look forward to joining other world leaders to advance our shared goal of just and lasting peace for Ukraine."
Swiss singer Nemo won the Eurovision Song Contest in Sweden with their song "The Code," a blend of opera and hip-hop. They scored 591 points, becoming the first non-binary artist to win Eurovision.
Staying up late hoping for the #auroraborealis to come back... (no luck so far and might have to give up soon) but glad to hear that #Switzerland :blobcat_flagEnby: has won #eurovision (and not, for example, a country currently engaged in genocide who should definitely have been banned if only the #ebu weren't cowardly hypocrites)
Honestly relieved that #Croatia didn't win, that was not a song fit to win #Eurovision.
Congrats to #Switzerland and to #Israel for securing the victory of the televote.
While some privileged idiots were booing the country another hostage was killed by #Hamas, if you want peace, ask it to whom can provide it. This war wouldn't exist if Hamas didn't chose to provoke it and continue it till today.
