@lysander07@sigmoid.socialAre you kidding me? 3.40 Euros for a single Espresso?? This was the last time ever at Costa Coffee (Karlsruhe main Station). … Feels like a tourist trap as e.g. Venice, Piazza San Marco…but without Venice ;-)

@cheryanne@aus.socialAbout bloody time! Should never have happened.
In a statement, Creative Australia CEO Adrian Collette apologised for the impact of the board's decision on Sabsabi, Dagostino and the wider arts community.

@kazys@mastodon.socialFinding it a little hard to believe that the Venice Biennale still exists. Why? What does it have to offer anybody anymore?
@cdarwin@c.imStar-studded nuptials between Amazon founder, billionaire Jeff Bezos, and Lauren Sšnchez, a former TV journalist.
The days-long shindig,
expected to begin from 24 June,
will be the biggest wedding held in Venice California since George Clooney married Amal Alamuddin in 2014.
While Venice residents mostly embraced the Clooneys’ fairytale big day,
the Bezos wedding has been met with much more antipathy.
As soon as Venice’s millionaire mayor, Luigi Brugnaro…
@grifferz@social.bitfolk.com"Activists from the UK action group Everyone hates Elon and Greenpeace Italy unfolded a giant 20x20m banner reading “If you can rent Venice for your wedding, you can pay more tax” on Piazza San Marco, as Jeff Bezos is due to celebrate his reportedly multi-million wedding in the lagoon city this week."

@LaChasseuse@mastodon.scotGenius. Thank you, Greenpeace!

@kazys@mastodon.socialWith the Venice Biennale coming up, I will remind you that for almost 15 years now I have been calling for a multi-year moratorium on new Biennales. There is no reason to have more of these.
@cdarwin@c.imLauren Sanchez, in preparation for her Venice wedding, is carrying an Eiffel Tower purse that likely costs more than your monthly salary.
Jeff Bezos’s yacht Koru’s purchase price could supply insulin for 856,666 diabetics or feed roughly 1,285,000 people for an entire year.
The Bezos/Sanchez $10 million wedding is just the tip of the selfish iceberg that is the Amazon empire, -- known for grinding warehouse workers into the ground with surveillance practices, extreme time manag…
@shriramk@mastodon.social1/ I know very little about the Balkans, and I discovered this excellent book, Modern Albania by Fred Abrahams, in an unusual way. I was at the Albania exhibit at the Venice Architecture Biennale 2025, and this happened to be placed with the exhibit. ↵

@Treppenwitz@sfba.social| When you're that rich or adjacent to it, the rules bend. Climate guilt is something for the rest of us. For them, "awareness" is enough — even if it means standing on a yacht with champagne while Venice floods below.
| This isn’t just hypocrisy — it’s obedience. Participation in these rituals of excess is a display of loyalty to the system that sustains them. The same energy as the Secretary General of NATO, Mark Rutte, calling Trump “daddy.”
