Why am I telling you all this? Because I just got this photo from my sister.

Adam found a half-melted vodka shot glass in one of the last pockets of ash.

Somebody drank from this shot glass before the War. Somebody laughed and cried over it.

Then the War happened, and this shot glass half-melted in the embers of Warsaw, burning during the Uprisings.

And today, almost 80 years later, it was found in the floor of my bathroom.

@detiber @nova oh, trust is not an issue for me. This instance is surely the best equipped one out there in terms of qualified people to run it safely at scale.
I was wondering if you enjoy the local timeline and such.

@TheDonsieLass the bromptons are quite good. A but expensive but really worth it for the daily easy handling if you can afford it.

@mattstratton Marty everything is overwhelmed and overloaded.

Unsere Kleider, Autos, Waschmaschinen, Häuser, Straßen, Flugreisen, Schulen, Krankenhäuser, Kinos, Supermärkte und Hallenbäder haben wir mit dem Leid gegenwärtiger und künftiger Generationen vor allem im Globalen Süden bezahlt. Es wird allerhöchste Zeit, etwas zurückzugeben.

@TheDonsieLass buy I can also understand that people don’t want to be on the shorter end of a lever.

@detiber I’m asking because I’m also considering to switch to hachy. Do you like it there?

@detiber what informed your decision?

@TheDonsieLass It is a bit like the dynamic with guns in the U.S.
If everyone has a gun, everybody needs a bigger gun.
Individually it makes sense, but structurally it is complete nonsense.

@bbrundert no guilt here, I was just asking.

@TheDonsieLass but even a chunky cargo bike is better than a car 😊

@TheDonsieLass I’m not sure if it really works in terms of safety and it definitely is less pleasant to be surrounded by them.
SUV are actually less safe for the people in the car. They tend to roll over easily. And for everyone else they are a nightmare.

@TheDonsieLass a lot of women do that. It is the same dynamic as with the SUV.

@TheDonsieLass oh yes, it does lead to verbal abuse once in a while. But all the people who yell at you would have definitely squeezed you/cut you anyway. And many who would have don’t yell. So I count it as *less* abuse, not more.

@miekeroth I made a mistake. I should have double checked 😔
Chaos.Social is not only ran by women. I just remembered Leah, but apparently there is Rixx working on it too. It was my fault.

@sabrinakirschner Es interessiert mich aber auch gar nicht so sehr, was die einzelnen Leute machen. Viel interessanter finde ich, was die DG insgesamt so auf die Beine stellt.
