Does Europe Need Its Own Social Media Platforms?




Hello from Rogart. 5.21am. Another misty morning with a heavy dew. The air is refreshingly cool & full of birdsong. I'm out looking for the last ewe to lamb (found her after a small walk & confusion with a distant rock) still nothing doing. Time for tea.
in reply to JeniParsons

@JeniParsons Lucky is supposed to look after pet lambs & lead the others in when we need to catch them up (as she comes to a call), but she does as she pleases usually. Dorothy sounds like she has her hooves full with feisty natives (we have a few Shetland rebels in the flock).
in reply to Mairi Hedges

the bucket helps but now Dorothy is old and slow she’s usually last to arrive 🫣

Layla Moran has told the UK government to match its tougher tone on Israel with action as she warned that people in Gaza face “unbearably cruel levels of destitution”.

The Lib Dem MP called for further action, including recognition of a Palestinian state, in a renewed appeal for the family of Mohammad, an NHS doctor who operated on her last year, whose elderly parents remain stuck in northern Gaza.

#StainedGlass #window in St Ethelbert's Church, Herringswell, #Suffolk U.K. It's a depiction of St. Hubert, patron saint of hunters, archers, and #dogs . St. Hubert (aka Hubertos) is considered to be the originator of ethical hunting behavior for Catholics. His Feast Day is November 3rd.

St. Hubert's story holds that after the death of his wife, the nobleman went to live in the woods. There, he saw a stag with a cross glowing between its horns, and took it as a sign from God.

[Window in memory of Llewellyn Sidney Davies, designed by H.W.Luxford.]

North Gaza’s Indonesian Hospital has been under intense Israeli fire since the early hours of Sunday, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry, with at least two patients injured as Israeli drones continue to besiege the medical facility.

“A state of panic and confusion has prevailed among patients, the wounded, and medical staff, hindering the provision of emergency healthcare,” the Health Ministry said.

Non sono più teorie. Non sono più solo “avvistamenti”. Harvard e il Pentagono stanno studiando gli UFO con l’Intelligenza Artificiale, usando dati raccolti da sensori militari, satelliti e telescopi. Si chiama Progetto Galileo, ed è la prima collaborazione ufficiale tra scienza e difesa per analizzare fenomeni aerei non identificati in modo sistematico.

L’obiettivo non è credere. È capire. E dai primi risultati, qualcosa di interessante emerge.

I see how Google might use Google Sans for the Android Chrome UI, and I see why they might choose to include a custom ligature that turns googlelogoligature into the Google logo, but when you combine these you get a fascinating url spoofing security vulnerability.

World leaders are calling for an immediate stoppage to Israel’s ongoing offensive after it launched fresh predawn airstrikes on Sunday in Gaza, killing another 78 people, with the death toll expected to rise as scores of people have been injured, confirmed Gaza’s Health Ministry.

Experts suggest that defeating Hamas was never an objective of the Israeli government, as the larger objective is to seize the territory for the settlers.

no, world leaders don't call for stoppage. They call for the surrender of Palestinian Resistance. Even for the distribution of aid they support israeli claims that "Hamas steals the aid", so the distribution should be made by US...

a W. S. Franca accenna a voler toccare con due dita il pelo del berretto e Giovanna si inchina per assecondare l’intento. Maria si siede, scrolla le spalle come per dire che sono cose che non la riguardano e comincia a oscillare ritmicamente il busto avanti e indietro. Franca annuisce vigorosamente e Maria esplode in una risata isterica. Giovanna si avventa strillando su Franca.

The image depicts an urban scene with a street intersection. In the foreground, a tall streetlight pole stands prominently, with a yellow sign attached to it. The sky is overcast with dark clouds, suggesting a gloomy or rainy day. In the background, a large green park area is visible, with trees and a grassy area. A person is walking on the sidewalk, wearing a blue jacket and jeans. A distinctive tower with a red and white antenna is visible in the distance, suggesting a city setting. The road is marked with white lines, and there are traffic lights and a pedestrian crossing sign. The overall atmosphere is calm and quiet, with no visible vehicles or bustling activity.

Vandaag trekken we hopelijk met heel veel burgers in Nederland een rode lijn, omdat we moeten opstaan tegen het extreme geweld dat Israël tegen de mensen in Gaza gebruikt. Wat onder leiding van #Netanyahu nu in #Gaza gebeurt is onacceptabel en moet zo snel mogelijk stoppen. Basale humanitaire rechten worden geschonden.

If universities go bust then the people formerly employed by them are likely to vote in large numbers for the Greens or LibDems and to desert Labour MPs in those cities. You'd have imagined the master-strategists in No. 10 would have given this some thought....

The nazi plan for #Gaza is underway. But never forget Vietnam and Algeria and Yugoslavia...

North Gaza’s Indonesian Hospital has been under intense Israeli fire since the early hours of Sunday, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry, with at least two patients injured as Israeli drones continue to besiege the medical facility.
qudsnen.co/israel-targeting-be…

The Israeli occupation army is currently surrounding the Indonesian Hospital in Beit Lahiya, northern #Gaza Strip, according to local and medical sources.

According to Dr. Marwan Sultan, the Director of the Hospital, Israeli forces and quadcopters are firing live bullets at anyone moving near or within the facilities of the hospital, including the intensive care unit.

Several casualties were reported as a result of the ongoing Israeli attack on the hospital.

¿Cuál es la forma ética de salir del infierno?

Este artículo se escribió en octubre de 2023, pero sus palabras son absolutamente vigentes.

"Nos rebelamos simplemente porque ya no podemos respirar." — Frantz Fanon

Durante la semana pasada, la izquierda occidental se ha puesto a "denunciar el terrorismo". A pesar del apoyo de la corriente dominante liberal a Palestina cuando el mundo veía sobre todo vídeos de niños lanzando piedras a los tanques, en el momento en que los palestinos formaban un ataque estratégico en respuesta a 75 años de limpieza étnica y viviendo en una prisión al aire libre, los izquierdistas sin principios se han unido a la corriente dominante de las noticias para difundir propaganda de guerra. Hemos oído afirmaciones infundadas sobre la decapitación por Hamás de 40 bebés, la violación sexual de una mujer en un concierto, fotografías de niños en jaulas -que decían ser niños israelíes... sólo para que todas y cada una de esas afirmaciones fueran desmentidas, incluso por las principales cadenas de noticias como la CNN y la BBC.

A pesar de esta desacreditación, los izquierdistas occidentales siguen "condenando a Hamás", una posición política que apoya funcionalmente la narrativa de "ambas partes" que Israel ha elaborado para justificar lo que puede describirse nada menos que como crímenes de guerra: el uso ilegal de bombas de fósforo blanco, el bombardeo de corredores humanitarios, forzando un éxodo masivo, el uso de castigos colectivos, el bombardeo de hospitales y ambulancias; el corte de electricidad y agua, privando a Gaza de alimentos, combustible y ayuda médica; el asesinato de 1.000 niños, la decapitación de niños (como informó Noor Harazeen para CGTN);

When russia invaded #Crimea in 2014, Bohdan Ziza chose to resist.

An #artist and #activist, he used peaceful protest to speak out against russia's war and oppression. For this, russia sentenced him to 15 years in prison. But even behind bars, Bohdan's voice was not silenced.

Today, his sister Oleksandra shares his message as part of our Voices of a Just Peace campaign. Because a just peace means freedom for all political prisoners.

Canada needs more homes. Prefabricated houses could fill the void
Prefabricated homes are one of the options experts say could help improve Canada's housing inventory. During the election campaign, Mark Carney and the now-elected Liberal Party promised about $25 billion in loans to the prefabricated homes industry.

En #Allemagne, en #GB, en #Roumanie, la dégradation de la situation des plus modestes et l'absence de volonté politique d'y mettre fin poussent les électeurs vers l'abstention ou le vote d'#extrêmedroite.

Quand les partis politiques, même ceux censés être progressistes ou de #gauche, renoncent à agir contre l'explosion des inégalités, trahissant les aspirations d'une large partie de la population, le désespoir a des conséquences dramatiques dans les urnes.

Et ce n'est pas seulement à cause de #Tiktok et #Facebook.
