Good news: Francesca Albanese's mandate as Special Rapporteur for the Palestinian Territories (on the United Nations Human Rights Council) was automatically renewed (tacitly as they say, for three years); there was no vote.

Had an interesting online exchange with an event organizer who asked me to repost their AI-generated car event flyer. I declined, and they asked why because AI is the latest and greatest thing. They were really polite and curious about it, so I linked my site https://whynoai.info and thanked them for being curious. A day later they came back to me and said that they now understood why I took my position and that they respected it. I like to think that I helped shine some light on this topic for one more person. #goodNews #ai

RE: https://mastodon.social/@rapporteur/117473441008696622 The protests helped!

Solarstromanlagen in Deutschland lohnen sich und haben in den letzten Jahren die Abhängigkeit von fossilen Energieträgern deutlich verringert. #GoodNews@BlumeEvolution@digitalcourage.social

GoodNews: Bislang hieß es immer: Erneuerbare Energien könnten fossile Kraftwerke nicht komplett ersetzen, da die Netzstabilität rotierende Massen braucht. Diese Aufgabe können nun nachweislich auch Batteriespeicher übernehmen. Wenn wir sie konsequent ausbauen, können wir schon bald längere Zeit fossile Kraftwerke vollständig abschalten. #GoodNews #Netzstabilität #Batteriespeicher

Another piece of good news to share. Regarding how consistently speaking up & asking for better preventative health measures can sometimes lead to medical clinics improving things, for increased safety for all. During the Summer, I had a polite but very stern talk with Mom's endocrinologist regarding my concerns over lack of masks required at her clinic (shared with another endocrinologist) & how lack of mandatory masking is putting already health compromised patients at more unnecessary risks of airborne infections. Since that phone talk, Mom's endocrinologist put in place mandatory masking for all staff working inside & patients who are having in person appointments at the clinic. I am pleased about this change 😷 #MasksSaveLives #WearAMask #PutYourMaskOn #MaskUp #PreventativeHealth #ProtectPatients #MasksPolicy #Medical #health #GoodNews #PositiveChanges #AirborneInfectionProtection #Covid #AirborneInfections #BCHealth #BCMedical #DoTheRightThing #StopEugenics #PeopleWithDisabilities #AntiAbleism #MasksAdvocate #AdvocateForSafety

A little cheery news for this wet Tuesday morning. Whether it be War and Peace or The Very Hungry Caterpillar, according to a study from the University of Cambridge, regardless of “what or how we read”, sitting down with a book is linked to improved health and problem solving. Benefits include lowering stress and reducing the risk of dementia, and span all types of reading, from comic books to classic novels or hefty non-fiction tomes. https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/psychological-medicine/article/reading-and-associations-with-brain-health-cognition-wellbeing-and-mental-health/1A3565FA61831A975813113DE1AB2B09 #Reading #Bookstodon #GoodNews

Friends, I've spent the last two days in a (terrible) 'AI in education' kinda online conference with some lovely colleagues but wow it's been discouraging. But I came home tonight to a message from a colleague at UManitoba who helped produce a large reference work on the Algonquian language family. I had contacted him b/c a grad student here is doing reconstruction on an E. Algonquian language... 1/x @linguistics@fedigroups.social #scholarship #linguistics #languageWork #goodNews 1/x

In 1989, Britain began reintroducing red kites after persecution left fewer than 10 breeding pairs; their population has since risen 2,613% and expanded across the country #GoodNews When i married we honeymooned in Wales, we had to drive to a certain area to see red kites. It was so exciting as they were so rare even then (1992) but now I see them here in Sussex! Often too. What a great success story.

A 74-year-old man who collapsed in the street after feeling unwell has praised the actions of two teenage rescuers who got him to hospital. Nick Peacey was waiting for a bus after attending Cardiff's Tafwyl festival when he collapsed outside Cardiff Castle last Sunday night. Josh and Taylor, both 15, were passing by and went to Peacey's aid as he drifted in and out of consciousness. They gave him water and called for an ambulance, only to be told it could be a while before paramedics arrived. Others also helped at the bus stop until the vehicle had to leave so the pair waited with him for an hour and a half before Taylor decided to call his mum to take Peacey to hospital. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cp36412eyx1o #GoodNews #Kindness
