A reading list I made of Palestinian speculative fiction and non-fiction (incl. essays, poetry, short and long form fiction) available in English:

Planting is caring 🌳

Today we open our MapMyTree web app to all EU citizens to register their planted trees. Help us reach the goal of 3 billion additional trees in the EU by 2030.

This can make a difference not only for Europe, but for the world.

apparently my elderly neighbor has been maintaining a personal website about the history of UK photography and it is an incredible piece of work.

apparently he still uses some piece of adobe software from the 90s. there is so much care and effort here, and its such a pristine image of the early web being still updated 😭

I was thinking recently, if flights have a similar train or bus ride that takes the same flight time + 4-6 hours (time spent on average commute to and from airports and airport procedures)... The flights should be illegal, or at least double as expensive as the corresponding train/bus fare.

But, gods forbid we regulate the market! 🙄

@jacobheringman Well done! A couple of years ago I convinced my director to travel with me to Amsterdam by train – adding two full days of travel to her very busy schedule. She told me later that, with a bit of planning, she could probably have worked just as efficiently while traveling, so in reality no (work)time was lost. Trains are excellent for focused work. But it was much more expensive, which is insane considering the crisis we are in.

Dash falls! Here's a place I've been meaning to go to and explore for a long time.

Evening on an overcast day, scenes were still epic.

Hello toot friends, I bring #antiLawn memes.
I'm hoping to radicalise you all against the boring monoculture lawn and turn you into biodiversity defenders.
