Ich habe in letzter Zeit eine gute Handvoll Freund:innen aus toxischen Beziehungen mit begleiten dürfen. Eines der ersten Dinge, die ich mache – gleich am Anfang und unterwegs immer wieder – ist nach Stalkerware zu suchen. Und in den meisten Fällen auch zu finden.

— Gay Berlin: Birthplace of a modern identity, by Robert Beachy (quoting the folksong Berlin dollboys, which was first published in ’Lieder aus dem Rinnstein‘ in 1905)
Rules of the game:
- Grab the nearest book.
- Turn to page 42
- Find the 2nd sentence

We are sooooo tired of sweeping generalisations about young people. It's time for young people to tell their own stories, in their own words, through their own lens.
Here are four examples of Time Magazine cover pages over the years about "young people" to illustrate what we mean:
Helsinki Flughafen, zwei Deutsche schimpfen wie die Rohrspatzen: der Flughafen sei unübersichtlich, und „die Laufwege, also ehrlich 😡“ — Und fliegen nach Berlin 😂🤦🏼

Tim Berners-Lee sees a new paradigm emerging, “one that places individuals’ intention rather than attention at the heart of business models”, driven by a new generation of pioneering entrepreneurs and communities that serve and empower us all – Mastodon among them:
