I totally missed that #ESA (European Space Agency) had a pride shirt again this year! I haven't ordered it yet but you can bet I will when I get back from vacation. Too late for June, not too late to just wear it every day, as one should.
@steve fyi - you are posting these as individual posts not a thread, this makes them a bit hard to follow as a story. Please ignore if done on purpose, but wanted to let you know in case it is as not!
I hate it that mastodon does not allow you to turn off replies. I'd love to scream something into the world and I don't want anyone replying to it.
And before I get a lot of mansplaining how it's people's right to reply: this is not even something controversial, just something I have no power to deal with any word-like feedback, no matter how well meant. And screaming out would help.
Kontext: Ich habe, vor mehr als 15 Jahren, in München studiert. Kenne die Stadt also gut von früher, war aber ~7-8 Jahre nicht da. Komme die letzte Juli Woche für ein paar Tage und Suche nach Geheimtipps für tolle Läden für Keramik, Einrichtung, Kunsthandwerk oder Schmuck & Kleidung (gerne fair trade / lokales / handgemacht), gut kuratierte Buchläden, tolle Cafés/Restaurants, Ausstellungen (die großen Museen kenne ich!), Theater, die noch nicht in Sommerpause sind.
We crossed the borders from Netherlands to Belgium to Luxemburg to France today with only the road signs making us aware that there is the (imaginary, human-made) border at all.
I don't want to live, again, in a world where there are more borders.
Ich habe spätestens auf Seite 25 gewusst, dass es ein fünf Sterne Buch sein wird - und der Rest hat nicht nur nicht enttäuscht, sondern sogar mehr geliefert als erwartet.
@TeaKayB@TalesFromTheArmchair eeeeeh - most things out there in the Universe, even the very high energy ones, don't have enough energy to create black holes. You'd need to get pretty close to the Planck energy (assuming spacetime does not have extra dimensions which we so far seen no evidence of) and there are no known processes that can bring stuff there.
