Hello sweet Friendos 💜

I've recently started using this account more, as my first Friendica account was rather unstable.

I want to use this account to boost my own toots from my several Fedi accounts. But... I also want to boost toots that I find interesting. Not "just" the toots that everyone seems to boost. But also the toots that usually would "just" get a like from me.

I have tried to find the people I interact most with on my other accounts. But, I'd like to find more interesting people to follow and, when I like their posts/toots, boost them. 😊

Looking for people that I share interests in. I'll list, in no apparent order, just how my brain comes up with them, some hashtag of things that interest me...

#Labrador / #DogsOfMastodon / #BurgersZoo
#ActuallyADHD / #ActuallyAutistic / #ActuallyAuDHD
#Gaming / #Playstation / #ShareYourGames
#Fitness / #MentalHealth / #Fibromyalgia / #Spoonie
#Music / #Roxette / #Vinyl
#TV / #DowntonAbbey / #SciFi / #Crime
#Photography / #SilentSunday / #Nature / #AmateurPhotography
#Reading / #Discworld / #HungerGames

These aren't all my interests, but they are a few to give an idea... Looking for people to follow, connect with, to like & boost.

I have limited spoons. I am Dutch and know some decent English, and a wee bit of German. I don't interact with toots that require translating all the time, as that takes more spoons, unfortunately. And I don't boost posts/toots that lack alt texts! So just a heads up about that. 😊

Fankoos 🫶🏻 for getting to the end of this post. Looking forward to connect with new folks.

🧚🏼‍♀️ 🍀 💜 🐾

Oh great! #HungerGames for migrants. Will starving American citizens be the next round of contestants?

#DHS Is Considering A Reality Show Where #Immigrants Compete For #Citizenship

The news comes after Rep. Bennie Thompson called out DHS Secretary #KristiNoem for her apparent costumes and staged photos during #ICERaids and DHS assignments.

Ohhh … die amerikanische TV-Landschaft bekommt wohl demnächst einen neuen Reality-TV-Pitch:
„America’s Next Top Citizen“
Jeden Montagabend: wer wird deportiert, wer kommt in die nächste Runde, und wer kriegt eine Green Card mit Glitzer?

Es reicht wohl nicht, wie das US-Einwanderungssystem psychisch, finanziell und juristisch Menschen zermürbt.
Aber warum in die Ferne schauen, wenn es hier bald ähnlich zugeht.

"Songbirds and Snakes feels like Collins asking her readership to reflect on why we latched on to the “fun” elements of the #HungerGames in the first place. She wants us to realize we’re no better than the Capitol citizens if we coo over the gorgeous dresses and thrill to the horrors waiting for the tributes in the arena.

"Those displays were specifically designed to be incredibly entertaining in order to distract from the sheer cruelty of the Games themselves. It’s telling that those showy trappings were so distracting to fans of the books as well.

"Naturally, people missed the point. There were some reviews that said Collins included too much death in her books, or that she should stick to “plucky heroes,” as if surly, recalcitrant, and deeply traumatized Katniss Everdeen in the original trilogy could be described as “plucky.”"

#India - Farmers devastated as crops are suddenly wiped out: 'Two-and-a-half months of hard work were destroyed in just two days'

Story by Robert Crow, April 12, 2025

"Whether it's warm, dry conditions, or heavy storms, farming has become more challenging and unpredictable, largely thanks to rising global temperatures. In fact, catastrophic events such as deadly heat waves, hurricanes, and floods, now happen so much more frequently that climate tech investor Molly Wood refers to warmer conditions as 'basically steroids for weather.'

Court rules federal government cannot freeze #Maine's funding from #USDA

by WGME StaffFri, April 11th 2025 at 8:46 PM

"A court says the federal government cannot freeze Maine’s funding from the Department of Agriculture.

"This comes after the USDA announced it was freezing Maine’s funding when the state would not comply with federal #TitleIX interpretations.

"Under this new ruling, the court is granting Maine a temporary restraining order, saying the federal government must unfreeze and release federal Department of Agriculture funding back to Maine.

"That includes money for things like #SchoolNutrition and #FoodBank programs.

"The Trump administration cannot freeze or withhold funding while this restraining order is in place, and the two sides will have to meet in court, though a date has not been set.

"Maine Attorney General #AaronFrey says this temporary restraining order confirms the Trump administration did not follow the rule of law when it cut program funds that go to feed school children and vulnerable adults.

" 'This order preserves Maine’s access to certain congressionally appropriated funds by prohibiting an unlawful freeze by the administration,' Frey said. “No one in our constitutional republic is above the law, and we will continue to fight to hold this administration to account.' "
