A few days ago, it was announced that the largest direct air capture plant in the world, situated in Texas , will be able to capture half a million metric tons of co2 per year. Human activity generates roughly 40 billion metric tons of co2 annually. That means that 80000 such facilities are needed

So it's been a minute . As expected, the world keeps getting warmer , stranger andmore cynical . Algorithms are relentlessly pushing for the disconnect from reality straight to any form of escapism as wildfires around the world are burning ruthlessly. What a great Sunday morning!

Last days of January. The tech bros are preaching their AI prosperity gospel 24/7.Arts becoming an escape to triviallity as artists make doomscrolling their culture.A sinking feeling that fascism being a career choice is here to stay. Spreading globally like cancer. Nothing personal,nothing private.

Anyone noticed this sort of a disease that rich people get. The mild symptoms become more intense the richer they get . The more money they have, the more offended they become when someone is getting a handout dollar they don't get. I think it's contagious.

Times flies! A new year has come. We're all witnessing the rise of artificial stupidity (following the steps of our natural one). As I take a few sips of my coffee this winter morning, let us all remember that their end goal is to take our money, our data , our privacy, and pay rent for everything.

Hello from northern Greece!

Sundays. Yet another day where everybody's feeding the plagiarism machines.

Autumn's faces

One's pain is the evening's doomscrolled gossip of another. Oh, and remember that everything is pretty much for sale.

Morning everyone. This is a reminder that right-wing and fossil fuel propaganda is alive and, in fact, thriving worldwide. Raise awareness!

The Grantham Institute for Climate Change and the Environment just published a study that shows how climate change affects excess mortality in Europe. The results are devastating. The study found climate change is responsible for 68% of the 24400 heat deaths this past summer across European cities

Random thought. We willingly let work take over everything that we do. And the deadliest poison for our lives are all the times we do it unwillingly.

The only artists I know who use AI in any capacity with absolutely no disclosure at all, are con artists

I wanna start the day with some positivity today . So here's a few shots from the Greek south , a couple of weeks ago.

Exercise caution when using AI as an absolute for information validation. It's like trusting a spokesperson outside a library who can tell you anything you want,as long as it's approved by their boss. The greater the distance between you and the information,the easier it's manipulated or distorted

Elon doesn't miss a chance. I'm reading that he took part in the far right rally in London. It seems the far right rallies in Germany half a year ago weren't enough for him . He called for the dissolution of the parliament. I guess he's gonna keep popping up in far right gatherings like a superhero

A beautiful sunny Sunday morning where Greece is producing over 80% of its power from renewable sources. Cleaner air to breathe and cheaper electricity prices for everyone! If Greece can do it , imagine what the rest of the world can. This is a reminder that fossil fuels are a dead end.

Not that Europe doesn't have its major issues, but im quite positive America has gone completely insane. I just read that Fox News advocated killing the homeless??!! Is this a videogame? what?

Saturdays

It's terryfing how many people in power are actually incredibly stupid. Remember, people in power amplify division to gain more money. It seems it has become a law of the universe.

I don't know who, but apparently, someone in the EU parliament asked for a minute's silence to remember Charlie Kirk . Of course, it was denied. Good . Why the hell would EU parliament members honor in any way a right-wing influencer ?

Videoart. The capacity to experience . In the dead silence. In complete darkness. The observer . You .

So , a young guy who built a career on bigotry, racism, division , anger,a man who publicly stated that certain groups of people should be stoned , that women are not owners of their bodily functions, and that collaterals are OK as long as people keep their guns , was killed by someone with a gun

Early morning thoughts. Big corporations like Google,Meta,X , Volkswagen, Apple, BMW, and Samsung often experiment with anti-consumer tactics and then claim its accidental when they weigh up the cost and negative PR.

You got this amazing ability to step outside your own thoughts and observe them. Most people identify in totality with their mental chatter, but when you manage to observe your thoughts and emotions with a bit of detachment, their grip on you is reduced, and you create space for conscious choice.

Influencers and content creators are the “laugh track of the 21st century. Like an old FRIENDS episode where you hear the audience laugh and you think ,oh, this is the funny part . It seems that people only know how to experience things by watching other people experience things .
