[1/2] theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Amazon claims its warehouse robots do not replace human workers, but the figures show they do. What should we do about that? In a more equitable society, with government dominated by workers rather than billionaires, we would tax companies like Amazon heavily so as to support the non-rich more, so that each of them could work fewer hours. That way, increased productivity would benefit everyone who could work.

in reply to Richard Stallman

[2/2] But today's American politicians, except for a few such as Bernie Sanders, don't want to do that because they serve the rich.

This week we published our report into the UK Online Safety Act.

We warn that the Act disproportionately impacts small sites, tipping the balance of power further towards Big Tech and threatening our freedom of expression online.

Really nice walk after the rain.. the leaves are still fresh and new, softly glowing.

I know the English word for " earthy smell after rain" is #petrichor, from Ancient Greek.

But what about the "vibrant colours, soft lighting, extra-loud birdsong"?

Maybe another language has one for this phenomenon? (Looking at you, German!)

The actual Harold Wilson government existed in an era when you could govern badly and still get 43 per cent of the vote. The homage won’t end like that this time.

Das Bild zeigt eine Straße in einer Stadt, die von farbenfrohen Gebäuden auf beiden Seiten gesäumt ist. Im Vordergrund sind drei Personen zu sehen, die an der Straße arbeiten. Eine Person malt eine weiße Linie auf die Straße, während eine andere ein Fahrrad mit einem Herzsymbol malt. Eine dritte Person steht in der Nähe und beobachtet die Arbeit. Auf der linken Seite des Bildes befindet sich ein großes, braunes Schild mit Text in deutscher Sprache. Der Text lautet: "WARUM HÖRT DER FAHRRADWEG EINFACH HIER AUF? FINDEST DU DOOF? WIR AUCH!

Kindergarten children dropped seeds in the crack of the sidewalk to see what would happen

In a world inundated with technology and digital distractions, it’s easy to lose sight of the simplicity and charm of nature.


A recent guerrilla gardening experiment by kindergarten children reminds us of nature’s resilience and its ability to flourish in the most improbable spaces.

The children did an experiment in guerrilla gardening by dropping seeds into sidewalk cracks and observing the results. At first glance, it might have appeared to be a fruitless endeavor – what could possibly grow in such a confined, unlikely environment? However, as time passed, a miraculous transformation unfolded.

More Guerrilla gardening: Photos of guerrilla gardening and other green street art


Nature prevailed


Against all odds, the seeds sprouted and grew, piercing the concrete and reaching skyward. The children were captivated and delighted by the spectacle, learning a valuable lesson about perseverance and the astounding tenacity of nature.

This unassuming experiment highlights the significance of nature in our lives. We often take it for granted, but nature envelops us, even in the most unexpected locations. It possesses the power to inspire, heal, and remind us of the astonishing beauty and wonder of the world we inhabit.

It demonstrates the potency of curiosity and experimentation. The children participating in this guerrilla gardening experiment were merely intrigued by the potential outcome of dropping seeds into sidewalk cracks. They didn’t know what to anticipate but were willing to explore and observe. Consequently, they acquired essential knowledge about the power of experimentation and the thrill of discovery.


Nature is everything


Amid our hectic lifestyles, it’s all too easy to overlook the marvels of nature and the influence of curiosity and experimentation. Yet, the simple act of sowing seeds in sidewalk cracks serves as a compelling reminder of the enchantment that permeates our everyday existence.

So, when you find yourself feeling swamped or stressed, take a moment to reconnect with nature. Be it a stroll in the park, a hike through the woods, or merely pausing to admire a flower or a tree, nature offers a gentle reminder of life’s true priorities.

Who knows? You might even be inspired to embark on your own guerrilla gardening experiment and uncover the wonders nature holds in store for you.

Un libro: Quattordici giorni

Con la maestria dei grandi narratori, Atwood e Preston tessono una trama composta dai contributi dei migliori autori contemporanei, a ognuno dei quali è affidata la scrittura della storia di un inquilino del palazzo.

Un romanzo collaborativo che, con uno stile feroce e comico allo stesso tempo, dà voce all’urgenza umana di raccontare e raccontarsi, celebrando così il potere delle storie e dei libri che le contengono.

The image depicts a classical statue of a woman, likely inspired by ancient Greek or Roman art. The statue is rendered in a sepia tone, giving it an aged appearance. The woman is wearing a helmet with a crest and a decorative element, possibly a winged figure, on the side. Her hair is styled in flowing curls, cascading down her shoulders. The statue shows significant cracking, with numerous fissures across the surface, indicating its age and the effects of time. The woman's face is partially visible, with one eye closed and the other open, gazing directly at the viewer. The expression is serene and contemplative. The background is a dark, neutral color, which contrasts with the lighter tones of the statue, drawing attention to its details.
