Global stock markets feeling the gloom,
Thanks to Trump's tariff tantrum, they swoon,
Investors are wary,
As markets turn scary,
Uncertainty spreading, like a monsoon.

On the Danish island of Bornholm, farmer Knud Andersen have cancelled his agreement to host American cruise ship tourists on his farm, which he has been doing 15 times every year.
In a post on Facebook Mr Andersen explains that American tourists are no longer welcome, because Donald Trump's statements about Denmark are "completely unacceptable" and "we will not open our doors to that kind of an attitude."

I don’t ordinarily boost a post from someone I don’t follow and have vetted. And not thrilled with boosting into a bsky account that’s bridged to Fediverse. But I do generally take Popehat @Popehat
seriously so his boost today of Nicholas Grossman post in bsky is worth a read.

Hi Frank, welcome 👋
Feel free to ask if you want help with using this place, and there is also lots of help for new people on the website at fedi.tips (especially the Quick Start section at the top).
I think c0c0bird was suggesting you could add an "alt text" description to your photo. A lot of people do that on here as it helps blind people know what is in a post. When you post a photo, there is an option for adding a description 🙂

De terugkomst van Trump als president van de VS brengt het leven en welzijn van miljoenen trans mensen, vooral jongeren, in gevaar. We zullen waarschijnlijk veel meer depressie en suïcide onder trans en genderdiverse jongeren zien. En niet alleen in de VS.

"The demand for more Innovation (and sometimes even the request for more research) has become a way to legitimize not doing anything. A way to say "the unpleasant solutions we have are not perfect but in the future there might be a magic solution that doesn't bother us and everyone gets a fucking unicorn"."

The headline is of course a bit of a provocation. Not all Innovation is a distraction, there are many areas in which meaningful work happens any day to generate some form of relevant new product or process or technology.tante (Smashing Frames)

You can extinguish tear gas canisters!
Wearing heat-proof gloves, submerge the canister in a wide-mouthed water jug containing baking soda, dish soap, and/or vegetable oil—3 tablespoons of each per liter of water.
Cover the top with one hand, just enough to keep the gas from getting out, and shake the jug.
Never seal a bottle containing an active tear gas canister—you don't want it to explode.
One role you could play at demonstrations is to show up prepared to protect your fellow human beings from toxic gas, in case the mercenaries deploy it.

#Invidious scheint mir nun leider endgültig tot zu sein. Sämtliche Instanzen, und das sind etliche, die ich gespeichert haben, werfen den gleichen Fehler.
Die Liste der als öffentlich genannten Instanzen wird (eher wurde) täglich kürzer.
#Piped funktioniert zwar noch, hat aber auch haufenweise Fehler.
Es sieht nicht gut aus mit freien #Youtube Frontends.
Offene alternativen wird es wohl eher nicht geben, weil man auf denen ja keine Kohle mit #Werbung verdienen könnte.
Also mal schnell ne Instanz in einem #Proxmox-Container installiert.
Scheint im Browser soweit zu funktionieren.
#freetube klappt leider nicht, aber damit kann ich erstmal leben (Meldung: Error invoking remote method 'generate-po-token': Error: Failed to fetch).
Scheint i'wie darauf hinzudeuten, dass die öffentlichen Instanzen nicht auf dem aktuellen Stand gehalten werden (oder so).
Freetube funktioniert hier auf Android-Smartphones stressloser als NewPipe. Letztere App zeigt zuerst eine Fehlermeldungen einmal oder mehrmals und rafft sich erst nach wiederholtem 'Push The Button' dann irgendwann doch zum Arbeiten auf.
Die Programmierer haben es aber auch nicht leicht mit den Google-Gegnern, die mit Zähnen und Klauen ihr nerviges Werbe- und Abo-Geschäft zu retten versuchen..

Als Antwort auf Randahl Fink • • •as an #american, i encourage #canada, #mexico, #panama, #denmark, etc to put the biggest middle finger up to any and all #americans and #usa interests as you can
we deserve it
my only hope is #america can try to begin to recover some good will in 4 years time
but that's a long way away
for now, the hell is just starting
and to minimize the hell you need to push back on #trump bullshit as loudly and as forcefully as you can
show the spirit and brains too many americans lack
