So proud of my city today: Over 60,000 people in #Brussels came out on the streets today to protest the Belgian government's climate inaction.

“Results show that approximately 414 million metric tons of carbon emission could be reduced if everyone in the world cycled 1.6km every day like the Danes…This climate benefit could be increased to 686 million metric tons if the Dutch cycling pattern was followed with daily cycling of 2.6km.”

This is one of the dumbest fediverse server rules I have seen. Equating politics and religion and discouraging people to speak up about injustice because it might make others feel uncomfortable ("plaster it in other people's faces") is such a stupidly […]
Ich habe gerade in der Bekanntschaft einen Notfall.
Hat hier jemand eine Ahnung, wer in #Düsseldorf und Umgebung unentgeltlich zum Thema #Visum beraten kann?
Bitte boosten!
EDIT: Danke für das Feedback.

My neighbour mentioned that they needed a new front for one of the cabinets in their kitchen but was not sure how to pick it up as it would not fit in their (small) car.
So I offered to pick it up for him. He then said, "How? You don't even have a car?" […]
And I just love the unofficial French reaction quoted by The Guardian:
"A diplomatic source at #France’s foreign ministry said “there’s absolutely no reason for us to change our commitments” when it came to supporting the conference."
“We stick to supporting #CivilSociety. It’s not just […]
After #RightsCon26 it's the second time this year that authoritarian governments attack and (here: attempt to) shut down a #CivilSociety conference and it's another massive warning shot for Europe.
Excellent reporting about the #Disinfo2026 scandal from The Guardian […]
I have been somewhat critical of the (what I perceived to be) overly strong #Russia-only focus of last year's edition but it seems I was wrong given @DisinfoEU's brave programme of the #Disinfo2026 conference (Unfortunately I am unable to attend this year.)
I can feel with a small and […]
Fun times as a #FediModerator when people start reporting each other for "hate speech" in a debate over who is the biggest #Nazi: the Ukrainian, the US, or the Russian government. 😂
A software always runs on a computer. A software always do what its creator wants it to do. If the software doesn’t do what its creator wanted, it is a mistake from the coder, a bug. If the software runs without the consent of the computer’s owner, it is a malware/virus. Stopping a software […]
With all due respect, I really don't think the "next #ViktorOrban" will come from new #EU member states but hey what do I know.
Offensichtlich haben auch relevante Teile der CDU-Fraktion in Sachsen-Anhalt zum 1. Mal seit der Shoa einen Rechtsextremen an die Spitze eines deutschen Parlaments gewählt. Die CDU kann das „Nie wieder“ nie wieder glaubwürdig vertreten, wenn sie das jetzt schulterzuckend hinnimmt.
BREAKING: Gleich wählen Russlandfreunde, Ex-Pornodarsteller, Abiturfälscher, völkische Ideologen, Vetternwirtschafter, Sellner-Fangirls, Ex-Stasioffiziere, rechte Kampfsportler die Demokratie in Sachsen-Anhalt ab und sich den ersten faschistischen Landtagspräsidenten seit 1945. Draußen geht nix.
I'm pretty certain #SteveJobs did not leave this planet @heiseonline.
