For two years, the Biden administration led an international coalition to provide military aid to Ukraine. Majorities in the U.S. and in Congress continue to support Ukraine. Now, a minority of Republicans are preparing to cut it all off.

If they do, the US is at risk of seeming not just like an unreliable ally, but an unserious ally https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2024/01/us-congress-support-ukraine-war/677256/

Droht durch die H5N1-Vogelgrippe die nächste Pandemie? Ein Thread.
Die aktuelle Situation in den USA mit den Infektionen bei Milchkühen sieht ziemlich bedrohlich aus. Zumal aktuelle Daten aus Milch in Supermärkten auf sogar noch stärkere Verbreitung hindeuten als bisher bekannt.

And everyone internationally has given Macron too much credit for too long

Ok, he’s more charismatic than Hollande, appears more reputable than Sarkozy, and has more vigour than Chirac

But at heart he’s just as much of a top down thinks he knows best elitist as his predecessors

The #BBC really gets the #fediverse, and doesn't approach #mastodon as a 'Twitter alternative' etc.

Give them a follow! https://www.bbc.co.uk/rd/blog/2023-07-mastodon-distributed-decentralised-fediverse-activitypub

If you're into quirky #cartoons, #horror, #surrealism, #monsters, #witchcraft, and/or genuine #diversity in storytelling, do check out #TheOwlHouse on #Disney.

Can't believe I had never heard of it before because it's gorgeously weird and fun, and rightwingers in the US tried to cancel it, so you know it's doing good

"Warum berührt uns das Schicksal von fünf reichen Geschäftsleuten, die sich freiwillig auf ein waghalsiges Abenteuer eingelassen haben, so viel mehr als das von Tausenden Verzweifelten, die vor Krieg und Armut fliehen und sich nichts davon ausgesucht haben? Beim verschollenen #Tauchboot schauen wir hin, beim gekenterten #Rettungsboot lieber weg."

Two points that all the articles about #Threads, #Bluesky and #Twitter comparisons with the #Fediverse keep missing:

1. The Fediverse has no ads. It doesn't steal your data. How is this not a massive, central point? Instagram is almost unusable these days because of advertocalypse

2. Don't like Mastodon's features like its decision not to have quote boosts and free text search? You can still use Mastodon through Calckey, which has these features

Der großartige @alexmatzkeit ist jetzt auch hier im Fediverse. Dicke Folge-Empfehlung!!

Insbesondere für alle, die sich interessieren für #Medien, #Digital, #Kultur, #Grimmepreis, #Journalismus, #Podcasts und #blogging, beides macht er seit Jahren meisterhaft. Außerdem ist er ein wunderbarer Gesprächspartner zu #fantasy, #scifi und #MagicTheGathering

Gerwig's #Barbie successfully baits the masses with pink Mattel iconography and then beats them over the head with rather abstract theses. It's remarkable that she managed to somehow pull off both, lure the bling bling crowd into making the #film into a real, huge blockbuster and also proselytise to these huge masses on #feminism

Go Greta! (I hope you'll return to your own personal stories sooner rather than later, because Lady Bird was something else than these big and well-made adaptations)

#BookRecommendation of the day: #Regenesis by the brilliant #GeorgeMonbiot

https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/317018/regenesis-by-monbiot-george/9780141992990

A well researched deep dive into how to feed humanity without destroying the climate, the environment, and ultimately ourselves. What most surprised me about it was how beautifully it's written. The way he writes about different sorts of apples is almost poetry

Let's hope some of that enthusiasm for #Eurovision translates to making #EU politics more democratic and federal. You like to vote for the best songs from all across the EU? Imagine directly voting for the best politicians from anywhere in the EU!

Beim Einkaufen heute bin ich auf dieses Produkt gestoßen:

#Konjak Reis Alternative...
Hat jemand Erfahrung damit?
Es ist #vegan, #glutunfrei und hat fast keine Kalorien, dafür aber wohl viele Ballaststoffe. Bin mal gespannt, ob man das genießen kann...
