Of course I think that Whitley Strieber is a complete fraud and grifter, but I can't help but think he has a really great #radio voice, the only person in that sphere who even approaches Art Bell's own. It has been the most enjoyable part of listening to Communion via #audiobook
Warday was such a good book imo, i still read it at least once a year all like 300000 years after it came out lol communion and the following grift made me 🙁

Das wird echt spannend, der #Kipppunkt zur Abschwächung der #AMOC soll schon in den nächsten Jahren erreicht werden, ab da geht es dann los mit dem #Klimawandel. Ich bin Anfang 40 und könnte doch noch #Dürre in Europa, sinkende Temperatur und stärkere Stürme erleben.
Es scheint wir haben uns als Gesellschaften nun darauf geeinigt, dass wir diesen Klimawandel jetzt nicht mehr abwenden wollen, auch weil Mobilität mit #Strom nicht geht, genau wie heizen oder auch die Stromerzeugung aus regenerativen Quellen einfach nicht möglich ist oder wenn dann können wir damit einfach nicht genügend #Energje erzeugen.
Le sfuriate quotidiane di Trump contro le istituzioni statunitensi e gli avversari politici interni - ai quali assegna premi e castighi in maniera del tutto arbitraria - viaggiano in parallelo con la quotidiana individuazione di un nemico estero vers…
The stats on crime show it's down and decreasing, but the media is effectively telling us it's bad and maybe getting worse. Because Fox News is popular and wants to push that message, getting people scared is good for the algos and coverage of crime gives local news something to report. Dems arguing for the facts thus comes off as lying or being out of touch.
Good civics and honest politics can't win if the media has bad incentives. That must be fixed also, if not first.
The video captures a scene at a water park where a person in a bright neon green shirt and red shorts is assisting two individuals seated in a yellow inflatable tube at the entrance of a large, purple water slide with a green interior. The slide is designed with a circular tunnel at the end, and the surrounding area is wet, indicating the presence of water. The person in the neon shirt is seen pushing the tube towards the tunnel entrance, ensuring the individuals are properly positioned. As the tube enters the tunnel, the person in the neon shirt follows closely behind, guiding the tube through the tunnel. The video concludes with the tube and its occupants disappearing into the tunnel, with water splashing around the entrance. The background includes a rocky structure and lush greenery, suggesting an outdoor setting. The video captures the excitement and fun of the water slide experience, with the bright colors and dynamic movement adding to the lively atmosphere.

This is not a defense of some of the worst things about Dubai, Singapore (exploitation of migrant workers etc), but Momtaza Mehri articulates something I agree with:
Many in the ‘west’ do not believe that other places have more than ‘one story’, but allow or demand nuance for themselves. I was especially annoyed when someone here was like ‘Dubai chocolate sucks, Dubai sucks’. All of those things can suck (like when you get a bad Dubai chocolate and say all of it is bad; and Dubai does suck) but then that person doubled down and say they couldn’t support anything with that name, everyone who lives there sucks.
Many of my friends who live there fled from wars that you started, denied visas by your countries.
Usciva esattamente 2 anni fa e da 3 giorni è disponibile in streaming. Un'occasione per vedere #ValentinaLodovini in un ruolo che finalmente la valorizza, grazie alla trasposizione del testo teatrale che l'esordiente regista ha reso un orologio. La vidi dal vivo in "Tutta casa, letto e chiesa" e un po' mi vergognai di ciò che le offre il #cinema italiano. Conversazioni con altre donne - RaiPlay raiplay.it/programmi/conversaz…

These same masked men no doubt want to ban the burqa and blame asylum seekers for crime in Britain. There is no other phrase for it. They are racist thugs. news.sky.com/story/police-offi…

I was convinced this had to be fake but he really posted this. I was wondering why he would post this then realized it continues his grand tradition of stiffing contractors.
Los buitres leonados entran en celo en los meses de diciembre a abril. En ese momento forman parejas estables y pasan unos 58 días incubando su único huevo, en turnos de entre un día o dos cada uno.
USA: un’estate di detenzione di immigrati e di resistenza pressenza.com/it/2025/08/usa-u… Quest’estate è stata caratterizzata tanto dalla detenzione e dalla deportazione di immigrati quanto dalla resistenza. Mentre l’amministrazione Trump incoraggia gli immigrati in tutto il Paese ad “auto-deportarsi”, gli arresti dell’ICE* (United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement) sono aumentati vertiginosamente in… Pressenza New York
I have mixed feelings about this article. The writer, a longtime New Yorker employee, eventually comes to the right conclusion: that human minds are original and “never say quite what you expect”, whereas AI is unoriginal & often cliched. But I found myself annoyed that this comes from a position of enormous media privilege. Kind of the worst of both worlds. Most bloggers these days have little hope of being part of the cultural conversation, thanks to algorithms and AI. newyorker.com/magazine/2025/09…
@AbandonedAmerica Yea I wasn't too happy either, ended up losing 20% of my followers and follows over night. Oh well, onwards and rebuilding and I am glad I just left. Server was photog.social
I'm so sorry to hear that. I have been kind of worried about that sort of thing with the fediverse, as it really does affect people who create artwork. The collateral damage between inter-instance spats can be a huge setback - and after setbacks on other platforms because of algorithm changes, that's really disheartening.
