The world economy never recovered from Covid. - “Britain sank into recession this week. So did Japan, with its decline so bad that it lost its spot as the world’s No. 3 economy.”

“It is increasingly apparent that the world economy is showing some of the chronic weakness we associate with long COVID. It appears the pandemic left some deep wounds in the economy – something few economists saw coming.” - https://www.theglobeandmail.com/business/commentary/article-global-economy-covid-19-pandemic/

@noyes @sidereal @_L1vY_ @Brad @VeeRat 🙄 Similar issues in the 'medical desert' that France has become. Emergency rooms close at dinner time! You must call a 'gatekeeper' number and obtain permission before you leave for the hospital because they are so short-staffed.

Crocuses are flowering in the garden lads 🌹 🥰
Also lots of "as yet unidentified bulbs I don't remember planting" have materialised 🤣

@fkamiah17 Similar here in northern France. Should have drawn a quick map of where I planted my bulbs last year. Should look very cheerful in the week ahead. 😎

Nothing quite as worrying as the rise of fascist thinking into mainstream.

@dmoser Approximately 50% of Europe is nodding in agreement with your comment about fascist thinking. Scary to see that the 50-ish number is becoming the norm in so many countries.
