Wichtiger Doublecheck zum Nachhören!

Ich durfte ein paar Sätze zu Sprache und Bebilderung beisteuern und erinnern: Wer höchstpersönliche Details getöteter Frauen inszeniert, entzieht ihnen posthum jede Entscheidungsmacht.

This is a must-read analysis of Rubio's speech in Munich. It pulls no punches on calling out Trump's white nationalist agenda.

Brilliant analysis of an iconic scene from CASABLANCA with too much contemporary relevance. “The Germans are but one small enclave, finding themselves within a community that’s filled with less traditional power but greater numbers and far superior zeal.”

Wichtigster Thread der Woche:
stromberger.bsky.social Laurer Pizzeroni® Bezirksrätin Mariahilf Ost @stromberger.bsky.social · 4d
Ich war heute auf einem 40er-Geburtstag im ersten Bezirk.
Erster Bezirk heißt ja normalerweise: teuer, geschniegelt, geschniegelt teuer – aber vor allem teuer.

Gelandet bin ich bei einem Italiener, der sich Italiener nennt, was schon das erste Problem ist.

Free piece just released. Marco Rubio called on tolerant, democratic, liberal Europe to destroy itself and embrace a Trump-like future. He received a standing ovation and we are told some people are reassured. If so, Europe will deserve everything coming its way. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...
Rubio Calls For The End Of A Tolerant, Democratic Europe And The Crowd Goes Wild
Just over an hour ago, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio called for the end of a tolerant, democratic Europe and its break-up into a disparate group of smaller, Trumpist states, and the Europeans in t...

In Anbetracht der Nachrichtenlage wäre es angemessen, mehrere politische Talkshows zu sexualisierter und häuslicher Gewalt zu machen mit mind. 80% weiblichen Gästen.

Dass es sie nicht gibt und geben wird, erzählt viel über misogyne Strukturen in Bereichen, die sich für objektiv & aufgeklärt halten.

Living in Minnesota right now feels like being in the emergency room. Literally everyone is suffering in different ways, even if it's "just" a badly twisted ankle rather than a kidney stone or a full-on heart attack. The staff are working as hard as they can but energy and resources are dwindling.

Canada has stood with America when we were at our lowest, has fought and died in wars alongside us, has done everything a nation could to help and be amicable with another. And now America has gratuitously stabbed Canada in the back, and continues to do so. Things can never be the same again.
With Friends Like These
To defend itself from Trump's thuggery, Canada must seek new friends.

welp, this destroyed me first thing upon waking up
But Liam was scared and frequently asked what they had done wrong, where they were and what happened to the little blue knit hat he wore the day he was detained, Conejo said. There wasn’t much he could say to his son, “except hug him and tell him everything would be OK,” Conejo said. Worried about further upsetting his son, Conejo said, he was forced to bite back his own tears. Liam has since been reunited with his hat and continues to wear it, even inside the house, his dad said Thursday. Asked how he might one day explain to Liam everything that has happened, Conejo said he would tell his son that he had become the face of hope and change. "He was the global figure who did all this so that the voices of the people demanding freedom would be heard, especially those of the children who are still locked up," Conejo said. “I would tell him he was very brave and that I am very proud of him.”

Ich würde gerne in einer Welt leben, in der die, die an der Macht sind, ein tatsächliches weltweit agierendes Netzwerk von pädophilen Missbrauchstätern so ernst nehmen würden wie sie ein fiktives weltweit agierendes Netzwerk von pädophilen Missbrauchstätern ernst genommen haben.

Gripping, but haunting summary by @helenrumbelow.bsky.social of the contents of the Epstein files and what it says about how men treat women as objects instead of equal human beings
Via marina Hyde on Twitter)

I studied the latest Epstein files. As a woman, this is what I felt
They show a hidden world oiled by porn-saturated misogyny. I spent two days reading them
