Last Notes npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg The beauty of #decay ... the next #heatwave in France has started (I forgot to count them). It's a bad year for #roses (normally resistant plants for heat): They wilt shortly after opening and are then scorched by the sun. Trees shed their dead leaves as a survival mechanism. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…c00k Even if a fire starts by a human, the number and intensity of #wildfires is due to human-made #climateCrisis. More and more extreme #heatwaves combined with #draught ... wildfires become more like hell. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…gfcd It's a death cult. Unfortunately, they kill so many people - not only at home - who are no fascists. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg It took quite a long time due to heatwave exhaustion, but now my new #minizine is ready to get digitised. It's an #HowTo for my way of #doodling: for people who cant #draw but like to do it, for more #colour & #beauty in this wold, and perhaps a method to calm down in stressful times. Soon in my ko-fi shop! npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…0k65 Beziehe deinen Halbsatz in Klammern mal darauf, wer Diskurse setzt. Und wie anders die aussehen würden, wenn sie von Frauen kämen npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg I'm not interested in soccer. But I love the idea that exactly the European country most hated by Trump has won. Schadenfreude! 😈 You can't buy such a sweet revenge. 🤣 npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…pfuj thanks! npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…pfuj Just a curious question from Europe for better understanding: is the digital communication between scientists of Cuba and the US also blocked? npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…7ehw all went well, only a normal thunderstorm, the very bad weather was some dozens of kms far away. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…0k65 Gibt so viele spannende Accounts, von denen oft kaum jemand weiss (oft fehlen Mastodon Buttons auf Websites). npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg Gute Nachrichten: ein Wissenschaftsaccount bleibt erhalten! Ich finde, dass kann man mit einem Follow und weiterer Unterstützung belohnen! npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg The stifling heat following an ultra-brief thunderstorm and the national holiday should be excuse enough to put off any hard housework and stay in the coolest (27°C) room. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…v2v2 Oh yes. And if we included the enormous costs of energy and drinking water, the environmental costs of the huge datacenters (plus planned #spacedebris) in a time of #climateCrisis! These costs are mainly paid by people living in those regions, not by the users. And by the climate, by biodiversity. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…m2xn Do you please have an original source of the real interview? For I don't trust *anything* from the fascist platform. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg AI is good in killing in wars, total surveillance, abusing energy, and destroying drinking water ressources. It's fine for producing slop, bad boring texts, dependencies, and even psychosis. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg Près de chez moi. Fil🧵 avec de superbes photos de @nprofile…nj94 https://piaille.fr/@blablux/116862079554598675 npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…n744 Ist es. Ich liege hier mit einem nassen Handtuch auf dem Bauch im absolut kühlsten Zimmer bei nur 28°C (Luxus), draussen fast 40. Ich würde nicht mal bis zum Museum kommen, ohne umzukippen. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg It could have been a lovely sunny Juin Sunday with the last day of our art exhibition, with curious #museum visitors, and animations of embroidery. Families sitting outside, eating our hand-made cakes. Joy, community. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg It's the first time since I volunteer (10 yrs minimum) that our #museum has to close because of the #heat after some morning hours. The whole WE. I just got the news: no animations. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg I was shortly outside in the oven to refill the water for birds and insects (first time ever: dries out from the sun). After some minutes only sweat ... and lot's of small creatures trying to drink from my face. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…cg6v Spürst du den Unterschied noch, fragt es röchelnd aus Frankreich ... npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…0lv9 Sorry, aber dabei mit Fakes arbeiten ... das haben Gegner dieser Superreichen wirklich nicht nötig, auch wenn die Empörungsökonomie schnelle Boosts und Likes bringen mag. Wir sollten uns nicht die Methoden von billigen Propagandisten zu eigen machen, es gibt genügend Fakten. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…qvan your art is surely interesting for #writersofmastodon #fantasywriting #scifiwriting #writers ! ⬆️ npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg Working on a new zine. The idea is still taking shape, in a playful and explosive way, combining text and images. Something with nature ! The bad photos show you: these are #humanmade! npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…d2ua And they used these signs for mapping? npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg #askfedi I’ve gotten a box of very ripe #bananas, which I can’t eat fast enough before they go overripe. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…49as So many comments compare it to the Soviet Union. As a European, it reminds me of Hitler's "Gleichschaltung", the begin of the complete nazification of parts of the society like science and education. The last chance to resist. https://fight2win.standupforscience.net/campaign/163675/ npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg I was outside in the oven. The plants that had damaged leaves because of very late frosts, have now the rest of their leaves burnt by the extreme heat in France. Just for changing the perspective from #anthropocentrism to the #moreThanHuman world. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg Sweet Lady Violet is blooming again in France and I will never forget how this plant once helped me to get back one of my lost senses: https://www.cronenburg.net/sweet-lady-violet/ Yes, you can talk to plants and become friends. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…xgw2 Great to hear! And you are not alone! In Germany, a US company just gave up plans to build a data center because they got too many protests. And we have protests in other countries, too! npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg Pink beauty npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…49as Well, research is also part of writing. Sorry, your post made the connection 'while writing, I use'. I have to trust you how you use it. Double sorry that for me, curiosity is a weak reason for using an unethical, climate, and water ressources destroying instrument. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…49as For me, it is more scary that you use it for writing a book. 🙄😫😭 npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg "Nit uffwickle, mais bobiniere!" Die feinen wichtigen Unterschiede im Umgang mit Landmaschinen. So knapp nur auf Elsässisch sagbar. Ich liebe es, in einer Region zu leben, wo man Wörter und Grammatik unterschiedlicher Sprachen mixen kann. Mein neues Lieblingswort: ich du jetz mit derre bobine bobiniere. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…elsk Ich denke, wie du das alles beschreibst, bist du auf der guten und diversen Seite. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…49jh Trump also asked Germany to take an infected US (!) doctor with his family. The whole family is now in quarantine in the @nprofile…qlpe in Berlin. Trump didn't want to help them. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…cja7 Schön! (Aber warum soll ich swipen, fragt meine Maus. Und meine App auch. 😉 ) npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg I’ll never forget those eyes: At our #museum animation, a five-year-old girl watched me #embroidering - shyly from a distance. I encouraged her to come and have a closer look. As she came curiously, I let her feel my fabric: ‘Look, I’m embroidering #moss! It’s knobbly like real moss.’ npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…7ehw Great, you already have some green!

Our lime soils were like concrete, could't absorb the water. Then in three hours only, 70 mm rain. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg I'm happy to live on the top of a hill. Shopping downhill, the cashier showed me photos of last Sunday: the whole supermarket was flooded by a sudden thunderstorm. After the help of the 'pompiers', the whole team worked late into the night. The floods transported soil from the fields outside of the village: after the drought, they couldn't absorb any water. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…r769 Working for the environment? npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…2v9q A very good article, thank you!

Man verkürzt es auf "das", so wie man an einer Metzgertheke nur einmal mit dem Finger deutet für "das Fleisch" als Sammelbegriff. Die Antwort: Das sind meine Fotos. (Auch hier Einzahl 'das' für die ganze Sammlung) oder: Diese Fotos sind von mir. (Betonung auf einzelne Fotos). npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg A scent of honey, violets, and vanilla npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…pfuj Ah, that was exactly my question, too, thanks for explaining it! I couldn't imagine that an ant could/should live in such a small glass tube. Does the queen has to be isolated from other ants because she is new or do the queens isolate themselves always? @nprofile…08k0 npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg David Attenborough’s 100 most spectacular TV moments - a timeline of a fascinating life: https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/ng-interactive/2026/may/08/david-attenborough-100-most-spectacular-screen-moments npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…9v8p The artist is Bread Nugent from Lawrence, Kansas.

Insights into the markets in GB, France, and Germany. The article shows why humans are better than LLM but also that companies prefer the cheap way, degrading humans to badly paid proof readers.

For quite a while now, the forecasts have been predicting thunderstorms, or rain. Instead, the sun sets against an orange sky, and during the day, hides behind yellowish-grey clouds that just won’t let the rain fall. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…40t9 🧵 The young people indeed couldn't see all of this.

In the late 1980s, that same boss was outed to be far-right. He had to go but we had tabloids welcoming such people. We also lost one of our best friends and colleagues, one of the best investigative journalists, to a Witness Protection Program. Neonazis had tried to kill her several times for her research. These nazis built the soil for today, and we were naive enough to think democracy would heal automatically. Had not to be defended actively. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…40t9 🧵 I'm older than you and lived through several global crises but *never* felt such dangerous and broken times like now, when some old men try to destroy all values and human rights, people have fought for so long. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…vvuq 🎯 👍 npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg Account names ... someone has a question.

A French woman, aged 86, finally arrived back in France thanks to help from the embassy. "Marie-Thérèse Ross-Mahé was arrested in her nightgown at the home she shared with her late husband, a retired US army captain" by ICE and imprisoned in a #detention camp. Arriving, "she was still dressed in her detention uniform of orange shoes, sweatpants and a grey sweater covered in stains and holes. ... in a state of shock and exhausted after her ordeal." npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg The only warm day today.

It was the worst prison but people loved it. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…upuh What about alternatives to the Kindle? npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…fzx4 beautiful, but 🥶 @[email protected] npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…qjgw I remember well using it in it's beginnings. But I gave up because I could only find tech nerds at that time instead of Gene Roddenberry. 😉🤣😂🤣 When I came back years later, the audience fortunately had widened. We now have even Star Trek embroidery! https://mastodon.art/@inarticulatequilter/116352586519746418 npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…n744 Das erinnert mich grad dran, dass ich vor Jahren aufhörte, im Echtleben die Frage nach dem Beruf auf Parties zu beantworten. Entweder hattest du sofort das Glas Sekt im Gesicht, oder du warst der Partyschreck oder bekamst die gleichen miesen Kommentare wie in Social Media. 😎 Das war früher mal ganz anders. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…cja7 Gigantisch gut. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg I'll *never* forget how we watched the first #moonLanding live in 1969. It was a "wonder" how they arrived with these Star-Trek-like clickediclick buttons and primitive computers. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg If photos could tell the whole story: winter chill, night-time frost and frozen window panes. Snowfall higher up the mountain. The cherry blossoms needed pollinators; they’ve now been battered by hail. Chattering teeth and freezing at least until Easter Sunday. 🥶 npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…v6d7 ... but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwdbLu_x0gY npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…0hde The EU is preparing this. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…xnyu It should be perfectly normal for photographers’ work to be valued by respecting copyright. Many photographers are more than happy to help if you ask them in advance whether you can use a photo and how much it might cost! npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg The #US is facing a WE of #protests.

In other countries, bombs from wars long past have to be defused on a regular basis. The #environmental impact of #wars is rarely discussed. Wars are fuelled by #fossilFuels and now also consume rare earth elements. Wars damage the #climate and contaminate #soil and #water. It’s the ordinary people who end up foot the bill. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg 1/2 As a child, I dreamed of becoming an archaeologist whilst playing in the sandbox. And archaeological museums in #France make that dream come true: they often have sandpits for children where they hide replicas of artefacts. npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg Mastodon #mansplaing gold level: a guy explains me that articles can be read. 🤣😂🤣 npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…la7y ok, I just connected deaths with not-yet-dead persons ... this whole amount brings me in rage against the responsables ... npub1z0cefch89vdx6xltxm2e0mw7kxxsp278n4nuudzs4kf7kh2srgyqkwqmke Petra van Cronenburg @nprofile…la7y I don't know which news you are reading but ours show also hundreds of thousands of people fleeing in Lebanon ... if you add all these people who have lost everything (including security and in several countries) ... it makes me so angry ... All these losses, the trauma for generations, children without chances ... only because of far-right, power-lust-crazy old men. 🤮
