And don’t forget that the Dutch digital ID was outsourced to a Dutch company that was now bought by a US company. The Dutch way for the government to digitally identify Dutch citizens is about to be in US hands.

As a cis female I never considered going for a traditionally male name. I do however have a gender neutral name I go by in certain circles. I also used to have a gender neutral account for online gaming.
Fair. I’ll delete my comment
Where I’m located the main culprits are bird flu, virulent newcastle disease, fowlpox and decreasing water quality due to things like algae and botulism.
I volunteer in wildlife rescue. I can tell you ducks have had a rough 2 years.
The study results look really promising. I think it would be an amazing thing for society as a whole. I just also think it won’t happen because (some) humans get really bent out of shape when they think others are suffering less than they think they should be suffering.
Banks are nowhere close to doing this. It’s risky to switch out technology like that. It’s a lot of work. If you want them to make this step you’ll need to force them.
My volunteering group won’t switch away from WhatsApp :( doesn’t help that half of our volunteers are over the age of 55. It’s the only reason I still have the damn app installed.
For people in the same or a similar boat: reduction is better than nothing. I got all my other contacts to switch over to signal. It’s only that one volunteer group left.
While I do volunteer in the field of wildlife rescue I’m also pretty sure this is an AI generated image.
However from what I can make out I do have some possible explanations:
A knife: Useful for things like cutting netting or fishing line or anything else an animal may get tangled up in.
A syringe: we don’t really use those ourselves as we aren’t vets, but some of our animals require antibiotics fast (within 2 hours of injury). Also euthanasia is usually done using a syringe.
Trash: the rest looks like the kind of trash one may find stuck to an animal, lodged in its throat, etc. Or it could just be litter that one would pick up to keep the wildlife area clean.
Same as the logo on the plastic packaging. Pretty sure this image is AI generated. My only question is: why???
Ah, I wasn’t aware that it wasn’t 100% done yet. Shame that I have 0 trust that they’ll do anything about this.
