An alle, die aktuell für eine Revision der jetzigen Energiepolitik sind und für die Wiederaufnahme der Beziehungen mit Russland eintreten bzw. auf der Straße demonstrieren gehen:
Soweit wie die Dinge inzwischen fortgeschritten sind, muss euch leider auch klar sein, dass es inzwischen nicht mehr nur mit einer Bitte um Verzeihung und einen Bußgang nach Canossa getan ist, um die alten Rohstofflieferungen und die dazugehörigen günstigen Konditionen wieder zurückzubekommen.
Mittlerweile muss man Russland schon etwas (an)bieten, damit von Seiten Gazproms überhaupt die Initiative erfolgt, das Angebot für solche Verträge wieder zu unterbreiten.
Solch große Schäden hat das Verhalten der Ampel-Koalition inzwischen verursacht.

When you're getting old
12 September 2022 05:29 pmYou know when is the point in time that you are mentally turning into a grandfather/grandmother? If you more and more often babble contextual nonsense if someone wants to discuss a topic with you and you don't want to hear the hint about your behavior, and you expose your lack of knowledge about a subject over and over again like a record on replay, without ever learning anything, expanding your knowledge from what the other person tells you.

Thank you, people! Thank you for traveling to Majorca every summer, for traveling to Turkey, Egypt and all the other Mediterranian areas, thank you for every cruise trip you ever joined in the last 20 years, thank you for producing and buying all the short-lived stuff and throwing things away before their expiration, thank you for outsourcing and globalized economy, thank you for all the wars in the Middle East, thank you for all the babies you had to get in the last 20 years, thank you for all the crap you've thoughtlessly thrown into nature, than you for all the stuff you have thoughtlessly taken from nature, thank you for valuing everything in money and rating it higher than matter - thank you for coming up and never getting enough!
That's what everyone gets from it!
And there's still way, way, WAY more to get!

You know what’s going to be the biggest factor getting in the way of soothing the extent that climate change will have on this blue sphere here?
The international community outside of the Western countries gives a fuck about so-called “green technologies”. They care more about their own development, which had been kept down for centuries by the plundering of the dominant European and North American countries. And that means, cheap energy accessible to the biggest mass of people and local industries carries more importance than making it as exclusive as it can get through applying complex and expensive technologies in the chain, which the bigger parts of the population in the first world countries are able to afford (in whatever way possible to individuals).
The mindset of the Western world and what they think of as “problems” is so far away from those of the rest of the world - literally elevated thousands of kilometers above the ground, figuratively.
So are many other issues such as that of a cultural nature, for example.
The rest of the world literally doesn’t care about the gender-fantasies of twenty-somethings in the US or Europe and their dreams of deconstructing the biological base of the two sexes. Or about rainbow flags, pride months and loudly celebrating LGBT minority rights like they would be a cure against HIV and cancer altogether (rights which quite a chunk of areas in the world don’t have anyway).
There are way more urgent problems to them than such boredom- and living-in-security-driven ergotherapy of emphasizing things that revolve around the aspect of the anthropocentric worldview to overestimate the social ongoings between humans in a society.
To the rest of the world, the classic aspects of the mindset of the anthropocentric worldview are important: Where do humans get a space to live, a roof over their head, food and water for humans, jobs to earn money and chances to procreate - as well as chances to feed that offspring and raise it into an adult.
If you want to get the rest of the world into the same boat as the culturally loony Western part of the planet, then you first rather need to get them to abandon their part of the anthropocentric worldview, in which all natural resources of the planet exist just to serve and be consumed primarily by humans. - Including your own focus where human business and social interaction still also overshadows everything, beside you talking about “wanting to save the world” and “protecting the environment” (inconsequently).

That feeling when watching anything on TV and having to see the tons of advertising in commercial breaks and finding that they’re an accumulation of trash for the mind, designed with lots of distracting bright colors that call for your attention and empty suggestive messages, even direct unrealistic bullshit content (take the whole cosmetics and “body care” sector as an example for that) - will this ever end?
Here, with the war in Ukraine active soon-to-be for half a year, the world is still waiting for Russia to collapse under the consequences of that decision.
Instead consumer prices exploded around the world, certain goods have become even rarer than before after the slight relief of the global economy from Covid-19, and food supplies and heating have become not safe (the latter - let alone how much it will cost in the end and if you can afford it, if your wallet’s budget is tight).
May it not be that the community of the so-called “Western states” miscalculated in a very high degree in this issue?

Geschäftsidee: Gemüseeintopf
12 June 2022 09:42 pmVorschlag für eine Geschäftsidee: Da derzeit die Preise für Fleisch jeglicher Art so explodieren, wäre es doch gerade der richtige Zeitpunkt, sich bei den fertigen Gerichten, die man in der Konservendose kaufen kann, ein paar Kompositionen einfallen zu lassen, die allein nur mit Gemüse auskommen. (Meinetwegen soll man es auch offiziell als "vegetarisch" bewerben...)
Jegliches fertige Eintopfgericht, das Fleisch enthält, insbesondere die etwas großzügigeren Fleischbällchen, hat im Preis wahnsinnig zugelegt, sodass selbst die Gerichte, die unter dem Namen der Handelsmarken der jeweiligen Ladenketten verkauft werden, allmählich mit den Preisen der großen Marken mithalten können - es wäre in der Tat anzunehmen, dass, wenn diese rein rein nur mit Gemüse auskommen würden (bzw. aus ihnen bestehen), der Preis für sie durchaus niedriger wäre, da bei Gemüse, Reis und Kartoffeln der Anstieg bisher noch nicht ganz so groß ausfiel.
Und aufmerksam hingeschaut, muss man auch feststellen: Es gibt recht wenige unter den Dosengerichten, die von vorn herein als vegetarisches Gericht konzipiert sind...
Maximal versucht man, bei Varianten der klassichen Eintöpfe (Kartoffel-, Erbsen-, Linseneintopf) die Würstchen oder das Fleisch darin wegzulassen - was irgendwie etwas fehlplatziert wirkt.
Oder man übt sich im hochpreisigen Bereich, generell Zusammenstellungen vegan anzulegen und mit umstrittenen Fleischersatzprodukten zu arbeiten.
...Das dürfte doch nicht so schwer in die Tat umzusetzen sein, oder?
(Und es wäre nicht anzunehmen, dass sich solche vegetarischen Dosengerichte nicht auch verkaufen würden. - Die Kochfaulen, -unbegabten und Leute, die in diesen Tagen so um ihr Weiterleben besorgt sind, sodass sie haltbare Lebensmittel horten, nehmen inzwischen fast schon alles, was schmeckt und nicht so teuer ist, das ins schmalere Budget passt.)
