What a speech. Read and share.
“For too long, we did not act.
Georgia in 2008.
Crimea in 2014.
And many did not want to believe he would launch all-out war on Ukraine in February 2022.
How many more wake-up calls do we need?”

Every European citizen should read this speech by NATO SecGen Rutte.

Others have noted it but I will too: The big reason Bluesky is so hot right now is that the people who add value to social media - the frequent posters in specific fields - are here now, talking to each other and creating the "spectator value" that draws users and attention.
Twitter’s heir apparent isn’t X or Threads — it’s Bluesky
The blue bird is dead. Long live the blue sky.

Today is “Orange Day,” a day to raise awareness and take action to end violence against women and girls!
We need an orange year, not just a day!

2/2 The client had just called. She was harassed, the guy was there, she was scared. Now she won't answer the phone. None of us knows her address by heart.
Damn it!
We need an Orange Year, not just one day!
This violence against women must stop!
My colleague has now called the police.

Siete días ha tardado Mazón en hacer cinco nombramientos para el gobierno de la reconstrucción. Ni siquiera ha reunido al Consell. Estos son algunos de los hitos de aquel día que hacían presagiar una desgracia 👇 Mazón no vio ninguna de esas señales:
Las señales que Carlos Mazón no vio el día de la dana
Los puertos cerraron, se suspendieron las clases, se cortaron carreteras y se interrumpió la alta velocidad horas antes del que el presidente de la Generalitat decidiera mandar la alerta

Even if it doesn't affect you.
Even if you think it doesn't concern you.
And even if you don't fully understand its cause:

Speak up.
Stand up for people's rights.
Fight injustice whenever you see it!

Wenn ich das Programm der #CDU richtig verstehe, wollen die alles wieder zurücknehmen, was die #Ampel in den letzten drei Jahren beschlossen hat.

Also das Land in einen Zustand zurückzuführen, wegen dem die #CDU nach 16 Jahren abgewählt wurde.
