Ingmar, this is a very powerful text. I hope many will read it.
And it comes very timely, especially after an extremely hot summer with burning forests and water shortages in many countries.

I stayed up many nights this week writing this. Not because I had a deadline. I just couldn’t stop.
It’s the most personal thing I’ve written about climate, hope, my children and the lie that we still have more time.

How embarrassing for Bluesky and the AT protocol. It's not just Bluesky, mu.social is also down. I think this means it's an issue with the relay network — the one they said made the AT protocol resistant to failures as clients would simply switch to an […]

I'm ambivalent on the em dash — it makes sentences look more modern. Of course the semicolon does the same job; it gives a rather traditional but dated feel. Comma splices are fine too, ignore what the grammar checkers say.
The AI overlords can pry the em dash from my cold dead hands—I’m not giving it up!
More Typos, Fewer Em Dashes: Writers Are Creating an Anti-AI ‘Literary Counterculture’
Novelists, journalists, and power LinkedIn posters are embracing first-person narratives and idiosyncrasies to avoid being mistaken for chatbots.

I finally received my wsocial invitation. It doesn't work. At random it shows "Looks like the wrong QR code", though my invitation had no QR code or ID, just a link, or "An error has occurred". I emailed for help and no response.
