Do you approve sex work? Why or why not?

selling your body

i hate that phrasing to describe sex work. no one is "selling their body", as they are still in control of it. sex workers provide a service, same as a masseuse or hair stylist (except their service involves genitals) and it should be treated as such.

Otherwise one could argue that all (physical) labour is "selling your body"

AfD is the most popular party in Germany for the first time, with a record 26%

We don't know how good AFD would be at doing, what they claim. But none of the parties who have been in power over the last 20-30 years have done anything significant to improve the average workers economic status (e.g. make housing affordable, guarantee a reasonable pension, lessen the fear of unemployment, etc.). AFD claims, "if we get rid of the immigrants, everything will be better again" and people are believing it.

SKG has repeatedly stated, that they don't want eternal support from publishers/developers, but the means to run the games, once the official support and infrastructure is gone. that could mean tools to run private servers locally or online or some sort of offline singleplayer mode.

Bundestagswahl 2025: Viele hatten die Linke schon abgeschrieben. Doch kurz vor dem Parteitag steigen die Umfragewerte und damit die Chancen, für eine Überraschung zu sorgen.

Aber Diplomatie kategorisch abzulehnen, ist nicht nur Kriegstreiberei, es ist ein Denken, das Staaten über Menschen stellt, und ich verstehe nicht wie sich diese sture Einstellung in linken Kriesen so verbreitet hat.

Für eine diplomatische Lösung braucht die Ukraine Verhandlungsmasse, also genug Waffen (und Personal) um Russland ordentlich in den Hintern zu treten, anstatt wie jetzt ungefähr ebenbürtig zu kämpfen. Wenn man gegen Waffenlieferungen ist, dann heißt "diplomatische Lösung" nur "Putin gewinnen lassen".
