And on tonight’s episode of “you’re up too late drinking” is another favorite. #DireStraits - gotta get this toot out before Money for Nothing hits…

Daylight is at its shortest this week. What a blessing to hike in the mountains high up above the #ValVigezzo 🇮🇹 in #Piemonte in bright sunshine … and to take a ride on the “trenino” of the #Vigezzina railway to #Domodossola - in an old class ABe8/8 trainset of the late 1950s with #FensterAuf opening windows. 😉

Favorisierte Tools 2023 - einige hier haben bereits ihre Inputs eingebracht. Nun also, etwas systematisierter in diesem Pad... Wer Lust hat mitzumachen, ist willkommen:

There are two signs
in my veterinarian’s window
the first says
“masks are optional”
the second says
“we apologize for any delays
multiple employees
are currently out sick”
and I can’t help but think
that the first sign
explains the second sign.

Republicans: The Senate cannot convict and ban Trump because that's for the courts to decide!

Colorado Supreme Court: Okay, done.

Republicans: wait not like that

Good morning from the #Centovallina🇨🇭#Vigezzina 🇮🇹 railway. Leaving #Locarno, I’m the only passenger on the 08:51 “Diretto” to #Domodossola. From the rear of the train one gets a “faux cab-view” impression of the line.
At “Olgia2” crossover we meet another #SSIF ABe8/8 unit. These lovely trainsets were built in the late 1950s. Their refurbished interior design comes with a 1980s feel. 😉

How is it that #trumpoffballot or #Colorado or #ColoradoTrump or #fourteenthamendment or *something* isn't trending?

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I’m telling you why:

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”

It’s about control.

Digitale Souveränität: Milliarden für Oracle, Microsoft und Co. statt für Open Source – netzpolitik.org

> Die Ampel schließt großzügige Rahmenverträge mit Oracle und Microsoft und festigt damit die Abhängigkeit von Software-Giganten. Dabei hatte sie im Koalitionsvertrag angekündigt, sich für Digitale Souveränität und Open-Source-Software einzusetzen.

Eine Person, die nach DE geflüchtet ist fängt eine Ausbildung demnächst an und sucht dafür einen Laptop. Der braucht nicht besonders viel Power oder so.

Hat wer noch einen übrig und könnte den zur Verfügung stellen? Gebraucht wird er in der Nähe von Wolfsburg oder Berlin. (Aber den kriegt man da schon hin.)

Please boost! :) #plsboost

Admin freaks out every time I submit a #bike share receipt for $5, but they have no issues with $50 for taxis and $100 for rental cars because they see biking as recreation. We need to normalize #micromobility as #transportation.

My children when I tell them to stop watching TV: «We will, in a just, orderly and equitable manner. By, before, or around dinnertime.»
