“Fast jeder dritte Werbespot ist klimaschädlich”?

Wirklich?

Ich würde eher sagen, jeder Werbespot ist per definitionem klimaschädlich.

Kann jemand mal bitte die zurück auf den Boden der Realität holen? Drehen die jetzt ganz durch?

Arme . Ich möchte nicht wissen, was die Zukunft bringt, wenn die so weiter machen.

@Simone21 @mina Na ja, das Schengen Abkommen und die EU sind schon zwei Paar Schuhe. Aber grundsätzlich hast Du Recht. Über die EU kann man geteilter Meinung sein, aber das Schengen Abkommen halte ich für eine sehr gute Errungenschaft.

“kurz für CD oder DVD” – “DISC”

Was bitte ist an “Disc” kürzer als an “CD” oder “DVD”? Es ist sicherlich eine Kurzbezeichnung für “Compact Disc”, aber sicher nicht für dessen Abkürzungen. 🤦

I’ve been #Hiking a few days ago. Here are some impressions, not all from the same tour, but anyway. 🤣

🧵 1/3

Another hiking trail in the woods.
Leaving the woods, the hiking trail now leads alongside the hill.

paulfoerster,
@paulfoerster@swiss.social avatar

There's a beautiful small waterfall, only about 4 m (13 ft.) high, but still beautiful.

🧵 2/3
#Photography #LandscapePhotography #ShotOniPhone #Nature #Hiking #Trails

Same waterfall, a little farther away and different perspective.
Looking back uphill where I came down from. This is rocky terrain in the woods.

paulfoerster,
@paulfoerster@swiss.social avatar

The path leads me to a chapel and then through a tunnel of bushes and trees back inside the woods.

🧵 3/3

The narrow path leads through bushes and trees.
A leaf on the ground having drops of water all over it.
Part of the hiking path through the woods.

Das ist eine erstaunliche Technologie. Früher legte man noch Wert auf Qualität. Leider ist das verloren gegangen.

Whichever makes the will be late because there’s already one feasting on the buffet. 🤣

Two images which are already a month old when it was still somewhat cold. But I thought they're worth posting anyway. 🤔

A mountain. There are trees on the lower part while the upper part shows much naked rocks. The sky is cloudy.

This engraving on a stone in the Swiss woods reminds me of the Eye of Horus.

It’s beautiful to see how a few days of rain can turn a dried out creek into a small river with ​s.

The water searches its way down small waterfallls.
The biggest waterfall in the area. It dries out more and more often.

RIP Mars, 2010 - 2024
This morning I found Mars run over by a car. I miss him very much. We got him from the shelter and he showed his gratitude every day. He was cuddly, playful, a rascal and very curious. Wherever I was, Mars wasn't far away and he spent many cuddly hours on my lap. I am stunned and incredibly sad. My heart is broken and I am crushed 🖤
Goodbye Mars, miss you, Thank you for love 😭 😿

@evelynefoerster I miss him too. 😢 I never forget when he jumped onto my shoulders when he lived here just for a few days. He's been a true friend ever since. 💔

♱ Rest in peace, my old friend. 🐈‍⬛

@evelynefoerster It turned out yesterday, that there was a to be given away. She is very friendly and calm. We instantly decided to take her.

Her name was something like Nanya or some gibberish. Since we name or cats either after candy bars or ancient gods, we decided to call her Hera (the wife of Zeus). Mars was both a candy bar and the god of war. 🤣

Below is the first shot I could take of her.

@SurrealSeal @evelynefoerster Only two years, well, at least she had a happy two years then, I hope.

That was perfect. 🤣 But it's all gone now. 😔@evelynefoerster and I had a perfect afternoon sunny chicken meal. 🤣

The chicken is ready to be served. It’s standing on its stand inside the now open Big Green Egg and waiting to be taken out.
The chicken was cut in halves and we both each had one half. The picture shows one half of the chicken on a plate, along with three roasted champignons.
All gone. This is the stand on which the chicken is positioned to be roasted equally from all sides. It’s more or less a cone formed by thick wires to hold the chicken upright.

@amiserabilist @SNerd @evelynefoerster I like the first comment on that one: “Been doing this for years. Drink the beer, put in 100ml white wine,1/2 an onion diced, 2 or 3 smashed cloves of garlic and any herbs you fancy.”
