  2. An abandoned nine-pin bowling alley, somewhere in Germany 🇩🇪

    The was built for nearby factory workers in the 1950s.

    By the 1980s it was abandoned and left to decay. The wooden floorboards are now rotting and splintered, with sapling trees beginning to grow through the lanes.

  3. Süßigkeiten und Steuern für #Russland, noch mehr Bomben und Raketen auf 🇺🇦 #Ukraine.

    Wenn Ihre Wohltätigkeitsorganisation Transporte nach Ukraine organisiert, sollte sie vielleicht keine Produkte aus dem #Mars-Konzern einpacken.

    Und wenn Sie Freunde in Ukraine haben oder einfach hinter dem Land stehen, kaufen Sie keine Produkte von einem Konzern, der jedes Jahr noch mehr Ihrer Freunde töten hilft.

    »Das US-amerikanische Unternehmen Mars (Eigentümer von Marken wie #Snickers, #Twix, Mars, M&M's, #Skittles, #Orbit, #Pedigree, Royal Canin und #Whiskas) hat über 40.000 Quadratmeter in einem im Bau befindlichen Logistikkomplex in #Moskau gemietet, berichtet Forbes.ru.

    Nach Ansicht von Beratern handelt es sich dabei um eines der größten Lagerimmobiliengeschäfte der letzten Zeit in Russland. Ihnen zufolge mietet Mars aufgrund des Geschäftswachstums neue Lagerflächen in #Russland.

    Das amerikanische Unternehmen kündigte im März 2022 an, keine neuen Investitionen mehr zu tätigen, die Werbung in Russland einzustellen und Importe und Exporte in und aus dem Land auszusetzen.«

  4. Sweets and taxes for #Russia ➡️ more bombs and rockets on 🇺🇦 #Ukraine.

    If your charity organizes transports to Ukraine, tell them not to send #Mars products.

    And if you have friends in Ukraine, or simply stand with it, don't buy products from a company that helps kill even more of your friends than in the years before.

    »#US company #Mars (owner of brands such as #Snickers, #Twix, Mars, M&M’s, #Skittles, #Orbit, #Pedigree, Royal Canin, and #Whiskas) has leased over 40,000 sq m in a logistics complex under construction in #Moscow, Forbes.ru reports.

    Consultants say this is one of the largest recent warehouse real estate deals in Russia. According to them, Mars is leasing new warehouse space in #Russia due to business growth.

    The American company announced in March 2022 that it would cease new investments, halt advertising in Russia, and suspend imports and exports to and from the country.«

  5. Oh noes!

    It’s like the sci-fi scene where one of your friends has a malfunction in their hibernation pod…

    My #MRE #skittles didn’t make it! 😭

    They still taste good though… 🤗

  6. I... should go to the store. My supplies of energy shots, Skittles water, honeycrisp apples, and soup are strong. A few cat treats, but zero Jason treats.

  10. It's almost the end of this year's gathering. Our final session of talks featured Adam Townsend, who showed us how we can use differential equations to make beautiful moving patterns - you can explore them yourselves at visualpde.com. We also heard from Hannah Gray, who was inspired by playing heardledecades.com to talk about whether men sing more songs (spoiler alert: yes, but it's better now than it was in the 1950s!) Last but absolutely not least, Colin Wright talked about the twist of a Moebius Rollercoaster: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Na #mathsjam #maths #differentialequations #movingpatterns #skittles #uniqueness #moebius #rollercoasters #music #domensingmore
