Ein Video jagt das nächste, unrealistische #Schönheitsideale, gefährliche #Challenges, #Gewaltdarstellungen & stundenlange #Chats: Besonders Kinder und Jugendliche werden auf #TikTok, #Instagram & Co. in den Bann gezogen. Eine Lehrerin fordert nun, Social Media erst ab 16 Jahren zuzulassen:

Ich denke, dass gerade bei jungen Menschen ohne Lebenserfahrung und Kritikfähigkeit der Zugang zu verirrten Unterhaltungsmedien eingeschränkt gehört. Eltern, die ihre Kinder ohne Erklärung auf einer Autobahn aussetzen gibt es ja auch noch nicht, gelle.

openPetitionKein Zugang zu sozialen Medien für Kinder und Jugendliche unter 16 Jahren - Online petitionGenauso wie es Gesetze und Altersbeschränkungen für den Verkauf von Alkohol, die Unterzeichnung von Verträgen oder das Steuern von Fahrzeugen gibt, sollte es ein Gesetz geben, das die Internet-Volljährigkeit für soziale Medien regelt. 16 ist ein Alter, das zahlreiche Psychologen für angemessen halten. Australien plant gerade, ein solches Gesetz auf den Weg zu bringen - das zeigt, es ist möglich!

More than 20 civil service employees resigned Tuesday
from billionaire Trump adviser Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency,
saying they were refusing to use their technical expertise to “dismantle critical public services.”

“We swore to serve the American people and uphold our oath to the Constitution across presidential administrations,”
the 21 staffers wrote in a joint resignation letter, a copy of which was obtained by The Associated Press.
“However, it has become clear that we can no longer honor those commitments.”
The employees also warned that many of those enlisted by Musk to help him slash the size of the federal government under President Donald Trump’s administration were #political #ideologues who did not have the necessary skills or experience for the task ahead of them.

The mass resignation of engineers, data scientists, designers and product managers is a temporary setback for Musk and the Republican president’s tech-driven purge of the federal workforce.
It comes amid a flurry of #court #challenges that have sought to stall, stop or unwind their efforts to fire or coerce thousands of government workers out of jobs.

📚 In addition to my annual goal of #reading 40 #books, I'm attempting to complete 3 #StoryGraph #challenges in 2025:

1) Onboarding Challenge [1 of 6]

2) Genre Challenge [3 of 10]

3) Reads the World [0 of 10]

I think it will be fun to see how many prompts I can check off with one book. For added difficulty, I don't have a car and my book budget is $0. I do have two #library cards that I use to borrow #ebooks.

📌 I'll update with replies as I go.
