  • 2 Dinge:

    • Tu das was du gut kannst und dir Spaß macht. Du bist musikalisch? Schreib Lieder. Du bist BWLer? Mach die Buchhaltung für nen Verein. Alle Talente werden im Kampf gegen den Faschismus gebraucht.

    • “Bildet Banden”. Wo du dir deine “Bande” suchst ist nicht mal so wichtig. Partei, Stadtteil-Gruppe, Fussball mit Flüchtlingen, Verein… Es gibt wahrscheinlich mehr demokratische & humanistische Menschenansammlungen in deiner Umgebung als man meint. Such dir eine in deren Gesellschaft du dich wohl fühlst und Selbstwirksamkeit entfalten kannst ohne nach 2 Wochen auszubrennen.









  • Things get really unintuitive when you go near the speed of light. Einstein’s “Special Relativity” is describing that. Watch a couple of videos on the topic. It’s mindbending but seriously cool.

    In short: The speed light is always constant FOR EVERY OBSERVER. That means, if you would hold a flashlight in a very fast moving train, the light would travel as the same speed for you as for a stationary person that is watching your flashlight from outside the train.

    But how could that be? Aren’t you “adding” the trains speed to your flashlight? So shouldn’t the light in your train travel faster in your train? Or maybe slower? No. Light speed is always constant - but what is NOT constant is space and time. It is relative to the observer. Time and space can stretch/dilate to make up for what seems to be a paradox. E.g. your trains would shrink in length the faster you go. But it would look different to you than it does to an outside observer.

    As I said, it’s mindbending, but there are a couple of cool and simple videos on the internet to get a better grasp on the matter.




  • The US is so intertwined with global politics and economy (e.g. financial markets, digital services, …) that it’s not just THEIR problem. If they drift further into fashism, oligarchy and right authoritarianism, sooner than later there will be a point where most of the world will be fucked in the short and possibly in the long term.

    We need to fight this fight from our side as well, otherwise we all will go down. Our countries need to start pushing back against it and WE need to push our countries to do so. Write letters, go on protests, vote! Otherwise we might miss our window of opportunity to bring this spiral of destruction to a halt.
