Eine 19-jährige hat einen 15-jährigen mit dem Messer erstochen.

Vor einer Woche, in Bayern.

Am selben See, in dem der Wels erschossen wurde, am selben Wochenende.

"möglicherweise mit fremdenfeindlichem Hintergrund"

Ob das Messer Nachrichtenwert hat, kommt sehr auf die Hautfarbe an.

So the UK Met Office is inviting people to suggest up to 5 names for storms. And apparently lots of people have been suggesting "Storm Bigoil", along with BP, Equinor, Exxon & Shell... This is obviously appalling & definitely not to be emulated via this link:

metoffice.gov.uk/forms/name-ou

Screenshot of form on the UK Met Office website. 

Text reads: "You can provide up to 5 storm names in the boxes below. 

Storm Name: [a user has filled this in with "BigOil"] 

Storm Name (optional): [filled in with BP] 

Storm Name (optional): [filled in with Equinor] 

Storm Name (optional): [filled in with Exxon] 

Storm Name (optional): [filled in with Shell]

I often crop my photos in an effort to make them more abstract/composed/whatever but that means I sometimes can't even remember what it was a photo of to begin with.

I started looking through uncropped versions of photos and thought it was interesting to see how they started and how they ended up, so I figured I'd share some examples.

These are all color to black and white because they show the biggest difference from start to finish.

Side-by-side photos of an original photo in color next to a cropped black and white version.

Both feature an upward shot of a  ladder going up the side of a building with a circular cage where it appears as if the cage has been bent into an irregular shape, but the original shows more of the side of the building a surrounding buildingSide-by-side photos of an original photo in color next to a cropped black and white version.

Both feature a view of the Bay Bridge in the fog, but the uncrossed version shows more of the bridge and road with cars and the interior of a bus from where the photo was taken.Side-by-side photos of an original photo in color next to a cropped black and white version.

Both feature a puddle with buildings reflected in it, but the original shows more of the street and surrounding buildings and the cropped version has been rotated by about 180 degrees to make the reflection of the buildings appear right side up..Side-by-side photos of an original photo in color next to a cropped black and white version.

Both feature the platform for BART which is the mass transit system in the Bay Area, but the cropped version focus on two specific scenes: (1) Man waiting with his bike and (2) A different man walking two dogs

If you're on mastodon.social, you might want to move your account to a different server:

➡️ fedi.tips/its-a-really-bad-ide

The Fediverse is protected from takeover as long as we are spread out on many servers. If one server dominates, takeovers become easier.

Mastodon.social is currently 25.5% of the active Fediverse. This proportion is way too large and seems to be increasing.

Larger servers also tend to have worse moderation and are harder to defederate, threatening safety.

Die Regierung plant gerade ein erstes Rettungspaket für Gasheizer.

Einen Heizrabatt. Nur heißt er nicht so.

Wie er finanziert wird, ist perfide 🧵

Apparently, protesters have started throwing glitter at ICE agents. You can picture the scene at home.

Agent's wife: Why do you have glitter all over you?

Agent (sweating anxiously): I … I went to a strip club with the guys. And … I got a lap dance from a stripper.

Wife: Huh. I guess that's OK then. For a moment I was worried that you'd started working for ICE.

Juneteenth is the perfect moment to remind everyone of these two facts:

1. Those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
2. Those who prevent history from being taught are plotting to repeat it.

Read this out loud. Read it again. Then teach it to your kids.

Listen up Mastodonians, because this is important:

Right now we have a unique chance to rise up and hit back against Zuckerberg and Musk. Because italian filmmaker @_elena and her friends have made an OUTSTANDING short film, which explains why people should quit the fascist social networks and come join us in the fediverse.

Hit the fascists where it hurts — make this go viral by watching it and liking it on YouTube, then hit the share button and share it everywhere!

Still from the short film showing @_elena in a sofa opening a laptop.

Ladies and Gentlemen, we have reached the stage where the cops are asking us to dial 911 if a cop shows up at our door:

“If somebody comes to the door and they knock on the door claiming to be a police officer, please do a couple things: One, call 911 and confirm that the officer belongs there. If they are a police officer, dispatch will be able to confirm that that person is police officer,” Brooklyn Park, #Minnesota, Police Chief Mark Bruley said.
