Hi there! A Transkribus user requested me to post the following: this person is looking for a #student interested in using @transkribus.bsky.social with a background in #geology or #geotechnical-engineering. They are interested in donating you a nice amount of credits to use on Transkribus.

Now that summer is in full swing, you might need this Comprehensive Guide to Yellow Stripey Things, so you can tell harmless bumblebees (you can pet them!) from “asshole” yellow jackets. [kottke.org]

Keep it in mind!!! (Rights of the image to the respective owner, it was posted on fb without any reference).

Dat worden 4(?) jaren met nul beleid want elke klimaatslopende maatregel zal voor de rechter worden gesleept en worden tegengehouden. Kabinet over rechts is doodlopende weg, maar rouwverwerking in NL over ‘hoe het leven ooit was, maar de 🌍 is te klein’ duurt erg lang, te lang. Zo zonde.
