Ich habe viel mehr Freude daran meine Dinge so lange wie möglich zu benutzen –viel länger als der Hersteller es wollte – als daran mir new shiny gadgets zu kaufen.

es ist quasi ein Ding von Stolz geworden, dass ich mein Auto weiter fahre auch wenn der ganze Motorraum squished ist nach einem Unfall, der Lack mit Sprühfarbe repariert ist, Getriebe ist gespendet von anderem Twingo, etc

Picking a power plant is always a pick of the "lesser evil" and we should never forget "use less electeicity" is very valid and we should be smart about our ressources. but there is NO power plant that is co2-neutral, takes up no space, produces no waste, costs nothing, etc. We gotta pick the "least worst". And solar/wind are dirt cheap, need no fuel, can be recycled 100 %z produce no waste and take up very little land. ... compared to many alternatives. e. g. hydro power needs huuge space

I live nearby the Asse where nuclear waste is (temporarily) stored. The word "temporarily" means a lot of political, social and technical things here. there is a lot of anti nuclear sentiment here. especially with the left crowd. I always meet them at 1 Mai and their stance just feels detached from reality. Many yellow crosses with "aufpASSEn". It's fine. I've been there. Lots of times. It's just a local hill. Once again: it's the coal lobby which ignites this regressive stance

Robinson's mother told investigators that her son had become more political over the last year and had started to "lean more to the left, becoming more pro-gay and trans rights–oriented"

aus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_of_Charlie_Kirk

die Behauptung das seien Rechte die andere Rechte erschießen war damals direkt nach dem Mord. Dennoch lächerlich diese Person als "left extremist ... transgenser ideologies" einzuordnen. Trans rechte sind normale Menschenrechte

@carolina@norden.social um fair zu sein es werden weder trans personen noch "pro trans views" als Terroristen bezeichnet. Der Kontext ist "As real threats were ignored or underplayed, Americans have witnessed the politically motivated killings of Christians and conservatives committed by violent left-wing extremists, including the assassination of Charlie Kirk by a radical who espoused extreme transgender ideologies." Es geht um Morde an Christen und Konservativen LGBT wird nur als Beispiel genannt
