In Italia sono spariti i carpentieri, in 6 casi su 10 non si trovano: «I giovani scappano dai lavori pesanti, sarà sempre peggio»

Secondo l'ultimo report della Cgia nel Nord Italia è molto più difficile reperire operai specializzati: «Chiedono più flessibilità e tempo libero»

You know what would be good?

To be able to boost someone's post but replace the link with an archived or front-ended link instead.

I'd boost more youtube, legacy newspaper, and BBC links if that was an option.

I wonder when the so-called Dead Internet Theory (more of Dead Internet Eldritch Curse) first embraced the #fediverse. Because, now, #mastodon (and, by extension, all the other #microblogging platforms) offers this awesome feature of bots talking to other bots, so you won't miss this lovely aspect from the mainstream social media...

Didn't see it yet for #threadiverse but I bet it happens there, too... After all, there are entire instances and communities dedicated for bots to post, so I can imagine a scenario of a bot posting a thread that happens to include a YouTube video just for the thread to be replied by that Invidious bot that goes by "I found a YouTube link in your post" and/or another automod bot.

#geminispace, #gopherspace, #tildeverse and others better get ready for Dead Internet Theory, too. Soon available in a capsule/hole/tilde next to you. (Insert the smoking doomer guy emoji here: ​:doomer:​ )

La strage sileziona

Sapevi che oltre 52000 Cristiani (cinquantaduemila sono stati sterminati dai mussulmani in Nigeria negli ultimi 15 anni? Niente ebrei, niente notizie. Sappiamo già che la comunità internazionale è un branco di ipocriti. Anche i cristiani del Medio Oriente sono stati sottoposti a pulizia etnica per decenni, eppure a nessuno importa. Iraq: da 1,3 milioni a 250k negli ultimi 20 anni.

There is ample and growing evidence of the harm #bottomTrawling causes in the ocean. Primarily to biodiversity but also to the oceans capacity to regulate climate. It is absolutely indefensible to continue this destructive, reckless practice in the middle of an ecological crisis. 🌊

"Bottom trawling is a fishing practice that is notoriously destructive to seafloor ecosystems. Now there’s growing evidence that it might unleash planet-warming carbon"

Back from the #Melbourne pro-Palestine anti-fash protest. Furious. The police just gave the city to the fascists and literally drove the protestors over to the other side of the river with horses, riot squads, and tear gas.

This was all _after_ our protest was over. The police created a second protest by cordoning off an east-west slice of the city between Lt. Collins and Lonsdale as a racist reserve, and piffing off tear gas cannisters at the "protestors" just trying to get home.

Reading about stormwater runoff, i got curious about the frequent flooding of the NYC subway. And now I have learned this: "The MTA already pumps an astounding 13 million gallons of water out of the subway system a day as part of a constant war against groundwater and the Atlantic." 🤯

From: gizmodo.com/why-the-new-york-s…

Also, this might be the creepiest video I've seen of flooding in the NYC subway, because like.... what's behind the wall?? Is it a wall of water?? 😱 : youtube.com/shorts/Dhw0B5ecbpM

Why the New York Subway Keeps Flooding—and What to Do About It

Rains once again inundated the New York subway system, showing how vulnerable it remains to water nearly a decade after Sandy.
