Whatever happens we all really enjoyed your Clacton promos and campaign videos. Even if the alternative was not corrupt and pure evil your campaign was uplifting and entertaining to watch. Good luck. 💙

Bro. People are cool as fuck.

I was gonna joke "Won't anybody think of the shareholders" but I just looked and per Wikipedia, Bluesky Social PBC is a public benefit corporation (PBC), not obligated to maximize shareholder profit.

Climate breakdown isn't just costing lives, it's scorching our economy. We need to redesign our economy for a hotter climate, and make oil and gas firms pay.

On this occasion I do in fact have to support this kind of silliness

Diese Individualisierung einer globalen Krise verdanken wir der Ölindustrie, einer der geschicktesten PR-Schachzüge, die jemals gemacht wurden. Die Person im Easy-Jet Flieger zum hart ersparten Urlaub ist in unserem Kampf gegen die Verhältnisse Partner und nicht Gegner.

Climate-conscious individual choices are good – but not nearly enough to save the planet. More than personal virtue, we need collective action

We also have the potential to help put things right, as many people are through nature conservation, rewilding, or other positive inputs. As a species, we have immense capacity for radical, rapid change. Let's never forget that.

Wenn in wissenschaftlicher Literatur das generische Femininum verwendet wird, absolute green flag.

If Europe ever finds itself with much lower emissions than the world average, let’s come back to this discussion, but in the meantime, Europe has a duty to itself and the rest of the world to cut its emissions as quickly as possible. 9/

Yet still people say “what’s the point in us acting if the rest of the world doesn’t”. The rest of the world is. It turns out Africans, Asians and South Americans also want a habitable planet. And green tech is often the cheapest option over the long term. 4/

It's probably time European journalists wrapped their heads around Heat Index (temp + relative humidity). In high humidity, sweating is less efficient, making heat worse, e.g.: Experiencing 35°C in London UK (70% RH) is more dangerous than 50°C in Phoenix Arizona (15% RH)

Lieber @peterklien.bsky.social , da geht eine Fake Variante von ihnen um und kontaktiert Leute. Es ist dann eh gleich mal offensichtlich, aber nur zur Info.

So erkennst du KI-Texte auf Social Media 🧵 
Es gibt kein einzelnes Merkmal, an dem sich KI-Texte auf Social Media zuverlässig erkennen lassen. Aber es gibt Marker, die in Kombination auffällig sind. Sieben davon, die mir auf Bluesky regelmäßig begegnen.

Wäre bei dieser Verteilung der Religionen in den Wiener Volksschulen nicht ev. ein (verpflichtender) überkonfessioneller Ethik/Religionsunterricht für alle Kinder sinnvoll? In dem man auch lernt, woran die anderen Kids glauben, was wir gemeinsam haben und v.a. welche Regeln für alle in Ö. gelten?

Denkt dran - diese Krawallpropaganda, die hier jetzt gewisse Akteure reinbringen: Nicht drauf einsteigen, blocken. Keine Reichweite geben, nicht mit edgy Drükos die eigene Reichweite steigern - einfach Sichtbarkeit abdrehen, zack.

Add resonance, and you get: If you sow happiness and friendliness, then you will get that back in heaps.

It really is the case that, if you approach life like a naive, eager, excited, happy person ... you'll feel better & do better! You will experience more positive feelings & life events. In other words, the absolute best thing you can do ... is to bullshit yourself! It's the f'ing key to happiness!

There's really nothing to recommend it. You should bullshit yourself! Tell yourself you're good, you're capable, that a setback is an opportunity, a rejection is a chance to learn & grow, you're well-rested, things are going to work out, the world will take care of you. You'll be happier!

Basically, you can make yourself happier & more successful by having a better attitude. Or you can make yourself miserable by having a worse attitude. In no way is the latter option admirable. It's not more "realistic." It's not "tougher" or "truer." It involves no less BS, no less fooling yourself.

How about a long, slightly depressing, completely non-political thread? My brain--my stupid, stupid brain--has always found it extremely important that I *not bullshit myself*. Am I thinking that someone likes me? That I did something good? That good things are coming in the future? Uh oh...

Turns out getting JD Vance to campaign for you is a powerful voter repellent.

Hungary has chosen Europe. Europe has always chosen Hungary. A country reclaims its European path. The Union grows stronger.

Happy to say that I have been entrusted with the coordination of our Transformative Innovation Lab at ZSI following @philste.bsky.social who has unfortunately left us. Looking forward to promote the wonderful work done in the lab and to explore future opportunities together with my great colleagues

What's something that experts/practitioners in your field universally agree upon, but that remains a "hot take" among the general public?

Things are going so badly for the US they'll have to release the Epstein files to distract from the war at this rate.

I love it when we can all set aside our differences and come together to make fun of Elon Musk. That's what community is all about
