In July 2024, firefighters had to pull apart one such toilet in Indigo Valley in the state of Victoria after a man got stranded in it."

Grüne: Urabstimmung zur Parteireform!
Ich habe mir angesehen, was konkret vorgeschlagen wird: https://blog.till-westermayer.de/2026/03/parteireform/

Parteireform?!
Bündnis 90/Die Grünen sind in den letzten Jahren enorm gewachsen - nicht ganz so stark wie englischen Grünen, die gefühlt gerade explodieren, aber immerhin: Zum 31.12.2024 waren es in Deutschland rd. 155.000 Grüne (+23% im Vergleich zum Vorjahr), zum 31.12.2025 waren es dann über 180.000 (erneut +18

Here is wisdom. I learned this too late in life, and am still not sure I’ve learned it well:
❝Don’t feel like you need to fix everything. A common response to bearing witness to another’s trauma is to try and fix it. We don’t want others to suffer. That said, you may not be offering what the other person or group is clearly stating they need. If they need you to listen, and you choose to act but not listen, then you have both not supported them in their trauma and violated a boundary.❞

Parteireform?! Einerseits ein bisschen seltsamer Zeitpunkt dafür, gibt ja gerade durchaus inhaltlich relevante Fragen der Politik, andererseits beim starken Wachstum von Bündnis 90/Die Grünen nachvollziehbar, dass an einigen Stellen nachgesteuert werden soll.
Ich habe mir die Vorschläge des Bundesvorstands, die jetzt zur Urabstimmung gestellt werden sollen, mal angeschaut und erste Eindrücke aufgeschrieben.

Just as they did across the country, Latino voters in the agricultural heart of California shifted toward Republicans in 2024.
GOP leaders celebrated the multiracial coalition they called the beginning of a political revolution.
Now, there are signs that support could be swinging away from the Republicans once again.
This year’s midterm election — in California and beyond — may show that the Latino rebuke of political parties can cut both ways.
