Sunday question: What do you say about Berlin abolishing the 30 km/h speed limit because the air has improved thanks to the 30 km/h speed limit?
EDIT: changed article link and title to comply with rules (that I didn't read 😛). The article that is linked now, links to the previous one (this one rbb24.de/politik/beitrag/2025/…), and the title is the google translated of the new article, as close as original German as I can
The absurdity of the proposal is already in the title, and shows how motonormativity is spread all over the world.
Berlin has a very good public transit system, and a few 30 km/h zones cannot be that bad.
I would love to hear opinions from someone who lives there!

DEAN: Isn't it true that on April 2, the same day Trump announced his chaotic tariff regime that plummeted the stock market, you sold more than $1 million worth of your shares in Trump Media? It fell 13% in the following days. It seems you avoided that loss. Well done.
BONDI: I would take in financial literacy if you think I profited from that, because I lost a tremendous amount of money.

The beautiful Toolache Wallaby ( macropus greyi) , as illustrated by Henry Constantine Richter in John Gould's "Mammals of Australia", published between 1845 and 1863.
This wallaby was to be found in South Australia and Victoria. The last sighting inn the wild took place in 1924, and the last Toolache Wallaby in captivity died in 1939.

The image depicts two kangaroos in a natural setting. The kangaroo in the foreground is standing upright, with its powerful hind legs and long tail visible, while the other kangaroo is sitting on the ground, facing the viewer. Both kangaroos have a light gray coat with a slightly darker face and a lighter underbelly. The standing kangaroo has its head turned to the side, and its ears are perked up, suggesting alertness. The sitting kangaroo has its head lowered, possibly grazing or resting. The background features a landscape with a body of water, distant hills, and sparse vegetation, including tall grasses and reeds. The colors are soft and naturalistic, with a muted palette of greens, grays, and blues. The text at the bottom of the image reads "Halmaturus Gregii Gray," indicating the scientific name of the species.

Das Bild zeigt einen klassischen Dampflokomotivzug mit der Nummer 693, der durch eine malerische Berglandschaft fährt. Die Lokomotive ist schwarz mit einem großen, orangefarbenen Scheinwerfer und einem dicken Rauchschwanz, der in einem kräftigen Blau aus dem Schornstein aufsteigt. Die Lokomotive zieht mehrere rote Waggons hinter sich her. Im Hintergrund erheben sich majestätische, schneebedeckte Berge vor einem Himmel, der in warmen Pink- und Blautönen leuchtet, was auf Sonnenuntergang oder Sonnenaufgang hinweist. Die Landschaft ist von dunklen, grünen Tannen umgeben, und ein Weg führt parallel zur Bahnlinie. Ein Schild am rechten Rand zeigt ein Verbotssymbol, das auf die Gefahr hinweist, dass der Zug vorbeifährt.

The image features a man with a long, exaggerated nose, reminiscent of a Pinocchio-like appearance, set against a solid red background. He is wearing a black suit and has a cigarette in his mouth. A white-gloved hand is positioned above his head, seemingly manipulating his nose. The man's expression is serious, and he has a beard and mustache. The image is overlaid with text that reads, "Ultra Masculine Whitegirl Playlist while you're on your way to testicular torsion surgery." The image is displayed on a social media platform, with a "Subscribe" button and a channel name "DurumGuy" visible, along with subscriber count and interaction metrics.

I don't think I've ever shared a Don Cherry episode, earnestly, on any social media platform before... but I'll share this clip of him announcing his retirement on his podcast today. He's had it since getting booted from CBC/Sportsnet in 2019.
“This is our last show".
The man is 91.
I don't know why anyone would 'work' until they're 91. But there you go….
Bye Don. No hard feelings, I guess.

Save What Remains of Us
We are exhausted and weary of a life where safety feels like a distant dream.
We want to live a normal life, free from the sounds of bombing shaking our souls,
Without losing more loved ones,
And without hunger gnawing away at our bodies.
All we ask for is peace and security,
A dignified life that every human being deserves.
Is there anyone who will listen?

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 $32,084.00, can we try to get them over the finish line? Here is a link to their GoFundMe:

The video begins with a minimalist design featuring a grayscale illustration of butterflies arranged symmetrically on a white background. The text "DOUGLAS E. WELCH DESIGN AND PHOTOGRAPHY" is displayed at the top, with a small portrait of a person in the top left corner. The butterflies are faintly visible, creating a subtle and elegant visual effect.
As the video progresses, the grayscale butterflies are replaced with vibrant, colored illustrations of butterflies, maintaining the same symmetrical arrangement. The text "DOUGLAS E. WELCH DESIGN AND PHOTOGRAPHY" remains at the top, and the portrait stays in the top left corner. The new text "VINTAGE BUTTERFLY ILLUSTRATION STICKERS 3" appears at the bottom, along with the website "DOUGLASEWELCH.COM/SHOP/803" for further information.
The video maintains a clean and professional aesthetic throughout, focusing on the detailed and colorful butterfly illustrations, which are the central visual elements.

Again, they can't as Israel controls the air space and given orders to shoot down anyone.
Again, it would require force to break the blockade, which is a military action against another country, which requires declaration of war. Unless you US of course, and then laws are meaningless.
As were said many times by UN who distribute the aid, there are no evidence of Hamas stealing it. So far they weren't proved wrong.
