I didn’t bring peanuts today, much to the disappointment of a crow who recognized me at the park where I make a bus connection. It seemed to be cycling through calls to try to figure out which one would get me to feed it this time. I’m sorry, little crow! I can’t give you food I don’t have with me.
It seemed to try to imitate me - poorly, but in tone and cadence despite being “caw caw caw” - when I spoke to it. I tried to imitate it similarly poorly, which it seemed confused but interested by.

@dirk Peinlich für die kreative Zunft, diese selbstabsorbierten Ur-ur-urheber.
Did the European Parliament just outlaw the only Europe-made social network with #Article13?
Zeit, sich ein anderes Wort für "Urheber" zu überlegen.
Mit diesen unverantwortlichen, lamentierenden, weißen alten Filmkomponisten will ich ab heute nichts mehr zu tun haben!
The results of the final vote: 348 in favor, 274 against. No amendments were considered. #Article13 #SaveYourInternet
It's been a while, so I thought I'd share this again.
A quick and easy way to draw braids or plaits in hair. :)

Es bleiben 364 Tage im Jahr, an denen wir von euch die zusätzlichen 5 Minuten wollen, die Ihr darüber nachdenkt welche Frau Ihr stattdessen befördert, einstellt, einladet, nominiert.
Nicht weiß, nicht schön, über 50, queer, nicht deutsch, humpelnd: eins davon.
Join me on Friday when my friend and colleague Elke will finally release her new comic “Love Migration”.
Short, autobiographical episodes follow Elke falling in love with Russian queer activist Masha in St. Petersburg and their subsequent decision to live together in Berlin.
Elke will be presenting at this year’s International Womens’ Day celebrations of Quarteera, a Berlin-based Russian-speaking LGBTQ* organization. So also expect Russian queerfeminist standup comedy, open mike and much more!

Girl representation in superhero comics
So today in my kids workshop, this 14-year old superhero geek girl brought all her favourites:
No Spidey, no Batman, no Supes.
But Ms. Marvel, Spider Gwen, Batgirl, Black Canary, Lady Thor, even Squirrel Girl – all the good stuff, basically, and all of them girl heroes brimming with agency. And all of it available in German - the markets are a-changin‘, boys.
Thank you, geek girl. Made my day.
