The image shows a clear glass container with a lid, placed on a wooden surface. Inside the container, there are several pieces of food that appear to be cooked meat, possibly chicken or pork, arranged in a row. The meat has a brownish color, suggesting it has been cooked or marinated. The container has a rectangular shape with a transparent lid that has two latches on the sides, indicating it is designed for secure storage. The background is a plain, light-colored surface, likely a wall, providing a neutral backdrop that emphasizes the container and its contents.

Belgium has lifted its nuclear ban after more than twenty years! This marks a major victory for clean energy supporters. For years, WePlanet and our allies have taken to the streets and met with policymakers to champion the role of nuclear energy in a diverse and sustainable energy future.

@cait can't double-sign because signatures are certified with your local digital ID (though that happens through a different procedure depending on the country).

@gabrielesvelto @cait I'm Dutch and I didn't need to use digid, I just had to fill in first names, last name, and address
in reply to Gabriele Svelto [moved]

@gabrielesvelto @cait its not actually mandatory to have a digid in the Netherlands, and if you live abroad

1. it's not super useful
2. it expires
3. it used to be extremely uncool to get a new one cause it required an embassy trip, which in the US would've been a flight to washington DC and in cyprus is a 300 euro cab ride. they've made it less absurd since, though, i think

in reply to Eniko Fox

@cait I see... I've got both a Dutch DigID and the Italian SPID mostly because they save me from a lot of trips to offices in both countries. The Italian version used to be really annoying to obtain, but now it can be done entirely from home with video identification. I wonder how long that will last in the age of IA-faked videos.
in reply to Caitríona

@cait I'm rather shocked that my exceptionally backwards country would require a digital signature but neither the Netherlands nor Ireland do 😅
in reply to Gabriele Svelto [moved]

Well, that's because Ireland doesn't have any mandatory ID cards to begin with.

Hey Mastodon,

I need a big favor. My friend @Aseelsehwel lives in Gaza, & she & her brother are currently trying to raise money to feed their family, care for their father who is suffering from kidney complications, & eventually leave Gaza for Egypt. They are a family of 6 & it looks like their estimated costs to cover everything would be $50,000.00. So far they are at $28,404.00, can we try to get them over the finish line? Here is a link to their GoFundMe:

The image is a meme divided into two panels. The top panel shows a man in a suit holding three pizza boxes labeled "Hot Fresh Pizza." He is standing in front of a door labeled "303," with a surprised expression on his face. The text overlay reads, "the fbi trying to infiltrate and disrupt the left."

The bottom panel depicts a chaotic scene inside a room. A man in a blue shirt is holding a blue blanket like a weapon, standing in front of a table with a fire on the floor. The text overlay reads, "the left." The room is in disarray, with people on the floor, including a woman in a pink top and a man in a striped shirt. The background shows a kitchen area with bar stools and a counter.

Santos Cerdán, acosado en su domicilio por una periodista que se hizo pasar por repartidora


El secretario de Organización del PSOE, Santos Cerdán, habría sufrido un presunto episodio de acoso en su domicilio este viernes, según fuentes del propio Partido Socialista. Según han apuntado dichas fuentes a este medio, una mujer se habría colado en el edificio en el que reside el socialista haciéndose pasar por una repartidora, subiendo hasta la planta en la que viven Cerdán y su familia. Una vez allí, "ha llamado a la puerta de la casa diciendo que traía un paquete para él", pero Cerdán no se encontraba en casa y estaba solo su mujer. Ha sido entonces cuando su esposa se ha ofrecido a coger el supuesto paquete para guardárselo, pero la mujer se ha negado. Tras varias preguntas de la mujer del secretario de organización del PSOE, la falsa repartidora ha reconocido ser periodista. Siempre según las fuentes socialistas, la mujer se negaba a marcharse y se ha avisado a la Policía Nacional del episodio. Ante las autoridades, la mujer se ha identificado como "periodista de OkDiario". "El acoso al que se está sometiendo a políticos y periodistas progresistas está adquiriendo un tinte peligroso que supera todos las lineas rojas. En estos momentos se está tramitando la correspondiente denuncia, ante otro atropello más de pseudomedios de ultraderecha financiados con dinero público de administraciones del Partido Popular", han denunciado y afeado las citadas fuentes. Acoso a políticos y periodistas progresistas en el Congreso En la misma línea de este episodio, el pasado mes de febrero, la Asociación de Periodistas Parlamentarios (APP) se vio en la obligación de emitir un comunicado denunciando el "señalamiento, los insultos y las amenazas" a periodistas en el Congreso. El detonante de aquel mensaje fueron las amenazas del agitador ultraderechista Bertrand Ndongo a una periodista. Ante aquel acoso, la APP rogó al Congreso de los Diputados que adoptara "las medidas necesarias" para que hechos como este cesaran. "La APP lamenta y rechaza rotundamente que varias personas acreditadas para entrar al Congreso de los Diputados como periodistas hayan señalado, una vez más, a una periodista en las redes sociales difundiendo su fotografía con insultos y atribuyéndole un comportamiento que es falso", sostenía el comunicado. Por su parte, desde el PSOE reivindicaron que "siempre ha defendido y defiende el libre ejercicio del periodismo como un pilar de nuestra democracia, pero este no puede amparar bajo su apariencia conductas que no respetan ni las leyes ni el código deontológico de la profesión". "Los socialistas insistismos, como hemos venido defendiendo hasta la fecha, en que las acreditaciones de carácter oficial para medios siempre deben responder a criterios profesionales y de ética periodística, donde es fundamental la obligación de la difusión de información veraz, verificada y contrastada. No deben ser, pues, para aquellos pseudoperiodistas que no son más que matones de corrientes ultras y que solo están en las instituciones para derribarlas, por lo que deben ser expulsados del Congreso de los Diputados de forma inmediata", sentenciaron los socialistas.

Mastodon: Giving Journalists Options Away From Big Tech


Mastodon’s work to highlight their platform to journalists led to the opportunity to host an aperitivo, with special guests Save Social, at the International Journalism Festival (April 9th – 13th, 2025) in Perugia, Italy.

IJF brings together people from across the news industry to talk about the issues they face and celebrate the work they are doing. This year, Big Tech was one of the topics that dominated the panel discussions.

Mastodon, represented by Andy Piper, Head of Communications, Felix Hlatky, CFO, and Philip Schröpel, Head of Staff, brought together supporters of the open social web, Big Tech-disbelievers, and curious locals to a small bar nestled in the old walls of Perugia.

Understanding that many in the audience were unfamiliar with Mastodon, Piper introduced the social platform to the room, highlighting the benefits for journalists. This included the work to highlight article authors, using the byline feature that rolled out in July last year, and emphasis on the value of links to external publications.

Mastodon promised new tools to track referrals through links would be rolling out across the network soon but were already live on mastodon.social – the server run by the Mastodon team.

Looking Ahead


Hlatky spoke of Mastodon’s future as an organisation and their ongoing work to transition from a German gGmbH to a new European nonprofit. He acknowledged internal work to restructure and remove single ownership from Mastodon claiming, “No one gives you money if one owner can run away with it.”

There was a strong message that Mastodon wanted what is best for their users, rather than their pockets. A stark contrast to the Big Tech platforms that had been discussed across the Festival.

To echo the sentiment, Mastodon then invited Björn Staschen from Save Social to speak.

Save Social is a predominantly German-speaking effort to turn away from Big Tech social media platforms and strengthen alternatives. In less than three months, their petition has reached 200,000 signatures.

“We, as a society, have to be part of the solution,” said Staschen. “We want to strengthen alternative platforms. Ensure freedom of expression by creating diversity and transparency.”

Converting Attendees


When it came to joining Mastodon, Schröpel admitted there are “multiple ways”, but that the Mastodon team are able to support individuals and organisations in setting up their own instance or offer advice on the network.

However, joining the platform continues to be a barrier for many users. A group of Italian women who attended the event abandoned their short effort to join the platform half-way into the presentation, confused about where to go and which app to use.

Alongside presenting Mastodon as an alternative platform, the aperitivo offered one of the only opportunities to take tangible action against Big Tech at IJF – attracting doers, rather than the commentators that lined the panels of the main event.

Wrapping Up


“There’s a mix of people in this room right now with the same instincts we have to save democracy,” Piper said in his closing remark, encouraging collaboration and action.

Based on the panels at IJF 2025, journalists are more worried than ever about the role they play in democracy. Witnessing the actions of the White House, many journalists are now calling for an “EU alternative” to Big Tech platforms.

Mastodon now has the opportunity to present themselves as the EU alternative and help journalists protect democracy.

Grate article ❣️

The Mastodon's commitment focus on privacy and freedom of expression is exactly what journalists need. 📰 💙

The Save Social petition has reached over 250,000 signatures and is still open for signatures 🔗 weact.campact.de/petitions/sav… (so if you speak German) This is a testament to the growing demand for alternatives to Big Tech.

Right now, President Zelensky is in Albania holding talks with Macron, Starmer, Merz, and Tusk. The main topic is likely the ongoing negotiations in Istanbul, which look to have failed.


Kathleen Kingsbury took charge of the New York Times’ “Opinion” section in 2020, in the chaotic aftermath of a newsroom uprising triggered by Senator Tom Cotton’s notorious “Send in the Troops” column. Kingsbury (41 at the time and considered young for a top job at the ‘Times’) was initially an interim figure. Five years later, she has transformed the size and scope of the department, making it feel like its own separate publication.
