Good Sunday morning, everyone. This year we have only seen one monarch butterfly, but in the past, we saw many. Here is a mating pair on some old Queen Anne's lace. They obviously weren't disturbed by me and my camera.
Have a good day, friends.#SilentSunday #StevenKPosts #Monarch #MonarchButterfly #WildlifePhotography #Wildlife #InsectLife #Butterflies #WildlifeOfMastodon

It was a pleasure to have Chris at our AGM. I love how he frames the state of the games industry as an outrageous power imbalance and that he sees unionising as the best and only way to fix it.
Regardless of ideology, if you're an employee at the games industry, you're in a class struggle and the best way to defend and improve your livelihood is through collective action.
Must watch!

This is how trade unions do democracy: we share and learn about our collective power, discuss and vote motions, elect the Committee, and have a jolly good time together!
This year's AGM of the Game Workers is on June 8th, 1 to 3 pm in several locations.
Register here! :ablobfoxbongo:

So proud of this flyer we made at Game Workers for the Guildford Games Festival. Folks didn't know about the union, but were very happy to learn more :blobfoxhappy:
Also... the headlines on the left show how bad this industry can be, and on the right, how workers are taking collective action. That dynamic is so hard on us! We must unionise to prevent the abuse, not just react to it after the damage is done.

Making the most of what's left of the summer.
The bees are really busy in all our flowers at the moment. What we need now is a bit of sun, as I think we've had enough of the rain. Thank you.
Have a lovely #Tuesday friends.

Cooking question for #FediCooks :
Has anyone ever by accident or intentionally left out bay leaves when cooking baked beans? If so, did you notice the difference?
I have so far left out
1. Tomato paste (by accident, it was noticeably absent)
2. Apple cider vinegar (by accident, it was also noticeably absent)
3. Jalapeno pepper (obviously by accident and also obviously could tell the difference)
4. Onion (last time, also by accident and definitely was not as good).
5. Beans. (Just kidding)But the bay leaves? So far never forgot to add them.
Anyone?

Update: v1 van mijn lijst met inspiratie om samen de wereld mooier te maken staat hier: https://kedara.nl/samen-doen
Het zal niemand ontgaan zijn: vandaag mogen we stemmen. Gezien het publiek hier misschien een overbodige oproep: gaat stemmen, het liefst sociaal en groen!
Dat gezegd hebbende: ik verwacht dat het weer een lange en frustrerende formatie wordt. Daarom ben ik op zoek naar manieren waarop we zelf aan de slag kunnen om de democratie te versterken. Niet alleen stemmen met een potlood, maar ook met geld, aandacht, tijd en daden.
Ik denk dan aan coöperaties als #LandVanOns of energie collectieven, repareer en linux cafés, steward owned bedrijven zoals #Sprinklr maar ook aantoonbaar succesvolle goede doelen, vrijwilligerswerk etc. Initiatieven van onderop die onze wereld mooier maken.
Ik wil daar een lijst van gaan maken ter inspiratie voor mezelf en anderen. Als je nog tips hebt voor initiatieven die daar zeker op zouden moeten, dan zou ik het heel fijn vinden als je dat laat weten!

Uzun olan (70x30) Beyaz Fare Altlığının kenarları dikişsiz olduğu için sâdece klavyeye uzanan sol kolumun dayandığı kenarından yapışkanı birazcık açıldı!
Şimdilik biraz, ama artık oradan tamamen açılıp, üzerindeki elastik beyaz kumaş ayrılacak demektir!
Onu terziye götürüp kenarlarına beyaz dikiş attırmalıyım!
Yoksa yıkandıkça açılacak!
Dikişsiz mouse pad alınmayacağını bilmeme rağmen belki yapıştırma teknolojisi gelişmiştir diye aldım!
Gelişmemiş!
Dikişsiz mouse pad almayın!

La historia de la tabla Ouija no empieza con espíritus ni posesiones, sino con algo mucho más terrenal: el negocio.
A finales del siglo XIX, en plena fiebre del espiritismo, había una demanda enorme de cualquier cosa que prometiera contacto con “el más allá”.
Ahí es donde entra Elijah Jefferson Bond, un abogado estadounidense que en 1890 registró la patente de este curioso tablero junto a Charles Kennard.La idea no era nueva, ni mucho menos.
Ya existían las llamadas “tablas parlantes”, pero eran lentas y algo tediosas.
La Ouija fue, básicamente, una versión optimizada: más rápida, más vistosa y, sobre todo, más vendible.
El nombre, según contaban, salió del propio tablero cuando preguntaron cómo debía llamarse.
Respondió “Ouija”, que supuestamente significaba “buena suerte” en egipcio antiguo.
Bonita historia… pero completamente falsa.Durante sus primeros años, lejos de cualquier connotación siniestra, se vendía como lo que era: un entretenimiento.
Un juego de salón para animar reuniones, algo así como el trivial de la época pero con un toque “místico”.
En la era victoriana, hablar con los muertos no era raro, era casi una moda social.Su popularidad se disparó especialmente en momentos duros.
Durante la Primera Guerra Mundial y la Segunda Guerra Mundial, muchas familias destrozadas por las pérdidas buscaban consuelo donde fuera.
La Ouija ofrecía una ilusión: la posibilidad de decir una última palabra.El gran salto comercial llegó en los años 60, cuando Parker Brothers compró los derechos.
Durante un tiempo, la Ouija llegó a vender más que el Monopoly.
Sí, más que comprar calles y hoteles.Pero todo cambió en 1973.
El estreno de "El Exorcista" lo transformó todo.
La imagen de una niña poseída tras usar la tabla quedó grabada en la cultura popular.
Desde ese momento, la Ouija dejó de ser un juego curioso para convertirse en un objeto maldito.
El cine hizo el resto.Y aquí viene la parte menos mágica: la ciencia.
El movimiento del puntero (la famosa planchette) tiene una explicación bastante clara: el efecto ideomotor.
Es un fenómeno por el cual hacemos pequeños movimientos musculares sin darnos cuenta, influenciados por nuestras expectativas.
No hay espíritus moviendo nada; somos nosotros.
De hecho, en experimentos donde los participantes juegan con los ojos vendados, el tablero deja de tener sentido.
Las palabras se vuelven incoherentes.Eso no quita que la experiencia pueda ser inquietante.
La sugestión hace mucho.
Si varias personas creen que algo va a pasar, el cerebro rellena los huecos.Entre las anécdotas más surrealistas está el caso de Juicio de Stephen Young.
Un jurado utilizó una Ouija en un hotel para “consultar” el veredicto.
Cuando el juez se enteró, anuló todo el proceso.
No es difícil imaginar por qué.Otra historia famosa cuenta que, para aprobar la patente, un funcionario pidió una prueba: que el tablero deletreara su nombre.
Lo hizo correctamente… y la patente fue concedida.
Suena increíble, pero no hay pruebas sólidas de que ocurriera así.
Probablemente es parte del mito que se construyó después.Al final, la Ouija es un buen ejemplo de cómo algo puede cambiar completamente de significado con el tiempo.
Nació como producto comercial, pasó a ser fenómeno social, luego juguete familiar… y acabó convertida en símbolo del terror.No hay misterio sobrenatural en su funcionamiento, pero sí hay algo interesante en lo que revela: nuestra necesidad de creer, de buscar respuestas y de no aceptar del todo el silencio.

I enjoyed reading James' post on the Indiewebcamp in Düsseldorf: https://jamesg.blog/2026/04/30/indiewebcamp-dusseldorf-2026
I also highly recommend checking the linked meeting notes on the wiki for website ideas: lots of interesting notions about what to put on your homepage, private posts etc. Seems like it was a great meetup.

PSA about our hosting instances:
Just a quick reminder to folks, that the instances that host all of our content cost people actual money to maintain and run, quite apart from the owners', volunteers' and moderators' time and energy. If you can, don't forget to support them financially if and as you are able. Where would we be without them?
There will be information on how and where to do that on your own instance info, or a quick question to a moderator will give you the lowdown, I'm sure.
Please boost for visibility.

Book review: The Living Gita
https://kedara.eu/review-the-living-gita/
#BhagavadGita #Books #BlogPost -
Hallo allemaal, ik heb net mijn eigen #GoToSocial server opgezet, dus het is tijd voor een bijgewerkte #introductie
Ik doe aan #yoga en #meditatie en alles wat daarmee te maken heeft. Ik probeer #Sanskriet te leren, omdat het een prachtige taal is en ook om teksten zoals de #BhagavadGita #Upanishads #YogaSutras te kunnen lezen, die mij erg inspireren.
Ik kom uit #Nederland en werk in de #wetenschap op het gebied van (buiten) #luchtkwaliteit. Het kan zijn dat ik daar af en toe iets over deel, maar dit is geen werkaccount (en toots zijn op persoonlijke titel).
Ik hou van #fotografie, meestal gerelateerd aan #natuur #weer #wolken #bomen
En speciaal ook van het #bos, ik ben dankbaar dat ik aan de rand van het prachtige natuurgebied de #Veluwe woon.
Verder hou ik van het verbouwen van voedsel in mijn #tuin met behulp van op #biologisch #permacultuur en #RegeneratieveLandbouw geïnspireerde methoden, ik droom ervan om ooit mijn eigen #voedselbos te onderhouden.
Helaas werk ik op halve kracht dankzij #LongCovid sinds februari '22, dus de meeste van mijn hobby's staan in de "onderhoudsmodus".
Ik post in het Nederlands, mijn Engelse account is @kedara_eu
Ik heb ook een persoonlijke website @ https://kedara.nl waar ik #blog, een #DigitaleTuin / #wiki onderhoud en probeer bij te dragen aan de #Indieweb #smallweb kringen.
Ik ben redelijk vaak van server gewisseld en had gehoopt dat op te lossen door mijn eigen Akkoma instance te starten, maar vond GoToSocial uiteindelijk meer geschikt. Ik hoop hier nu voor onbepaalde tijd te blijven.
Laat het me weten als je dezelfde interesses hebt, dan houden we contact! -
Hi all, I've just setup my own #GoToSocial instance, so it's time for an updated #introduction
I'm very much into #yoga and #meditation and everything related to that. I'm trying to learn #Sanskrit because its a beautiful language and also in order to be able to read text like the #BhagavadGita #Upanishads #YogaSutras which greatly inspire me.
I'm from the #Netherlands and work in #science in the field of outdoor #AirQuality I may occasionally share something about that, but this is not a work account (and any opinions are my own).
I love #photography , mostly related to #nature #weather #clouds #trees
I love the #forest, I'm grateful to live at the edge of the beautiful #Veluwe nature area.
I love growing food in my #garden using #organic #permaculture and #RegenerativeAgriculture inspired methods, I'm dreaming of tending my own #FoodForest some day.
Unfortunately I'm operating at half power thanks to #LongCovid since Feb. '22, so most of my hobbies are in "maintenance mode".
I'll post in English, my Dutch account is @kedara_nl
I also have a personal website @ https://kedara.eu where I #blog, tend a #DigitalGarden / #wiki and try to contribute to the #Indieweb #smallweb communities.
I've done my fair share of instance hopping and had hoped to solve that by starting my own Akkoma instance, but found GoToSocial more suitable to my needs in the end. I hope to stay here now indefinitely.
Let me know if you have similar interests and I'll be happy to chat! -
