@Chris Fin høst!

@PhoenixSerenity @SecularJeffrey @Elleaster Yes. Shockingly normalised.

@SecularJeffrey @PhoenixSerenity @Elleaster Horrifying. That poor woman. That poor country. That photo does make you want to just cry. Horrendous. All those normalised Nazi men.

@alf149 I am wary of finding a problem for every potential solution.The situation feels too critical, as does the current level of collective non-action.

@malte

@svedigtype Tillykke med det nye job, og god fornøjelse med det! Det kan være så udmattende at starte på et nyt arbejde, uanset hvor erfaren man er - jeg håber, du får en afslappet weekend lige her efter de første dage.

I am taking the liberty of using your toot thread to note that there's still time for citizens in Denmark to sign the citizen petition telling the government to 'Get Rid of Palantir'.

'Afskaf Palantir i Danmark' - closing date for signatures is 16th August.

@SorenMRiis Ah, that sounds likely. I missed 50 Sheds of Grey too. Humans are a weird and inventive species.

@SorenMRiis

@SorenMRiis Haha, oh that's wonderful. If Mr. Shoulder and Mr. Small are their real names, I'm going to assume that the authors were destined to write this book.

@jonassmith @mjj

@folfdk Det lyder som om, at klimajournalisterne er i gang med vigtigt og godt arbejde - tak for 'Det vi burde tale om' tippet også.

"With "sometimes", you have to be very specific for it to not become a false story you tell yourself."

Yes, absolutely.

@SorenMRiis Hahaha - now I want to visit it even more. And to work the phrase 'good bummage' into general conversations - such an excellent phrase

@mjj @jonassmith

@malte

"Planetary Health Diet. And it is very much a "sometimes" diet!"

That's really encouraging! I've been conscious of the fact that (except for never driving), I've done nothing fully and all-out. Like, I'm not vegan. I've only 'almost' changed different behaviours. It's good to know even the experts see value in 'sometimes' and 'almost' in a climate-change context.

@alf149

"who defines planetary boundaries? ... a little concerned about who defines the rules."

The situation feels as if we urgently need to have big conversations at small levels. To make it socially expected that we pool individual actions for mass actions and boycotts that tell politicians & companies 'act now!' Most of us with the privilege to have something to boycott don't want to give up our comforts. I fear 'who defines what?' may get used by some as an excuse to do nothing.

@malte

@alf149 Jeg havde slet ikke hørt om Domino-effekten. Efter et første kvik-kig, har jeg straks abonneret på den. Det lyder som en interessant pendant til Lost Terminal. Tak fordi du delte tippet og navnet.

@malte

@formingworlds Velkommen til nabolaget!

@jonassmith Great photos.

@mjj @jonassmith I probably shouldn't say this out loud, but I didn't know about the Royal Cast Collection until I saw photos shared here in the Fediverse. It has gone straight on to my Must See list next time I'm on Djævleøen. It being very cold sounds perfect - like it would add to the strange atmosphere.

@SallyStrange That is a great feature. I also love the fact that 'old' is a relative concept in the Fediverse. I like the way it's Slow Social Media, that it's natural to just pick up a conversation when you come across it long after it was first posted. Or when you wander back into the Fediverse after a few days or weeks away. Like wandering into a café and meeting someone you haven't seen for a while, you just chat on naturally.

@clew

"fossil fuel users are mostly in the position of Boycott’s _employers_, the _landlords_ — our lives are easier when the extraction is harsher."

This is such a clear-sighted observation. I've been thinking about the way we individual people don't use the collective power of our individual actions to mass effect - the big fossil fuel profiteers wold make less money if we mass boycotted. I hadn't thought of it like this. That we're the 'landlords', the ones paying for their services.
