Na een uur overleggen hebben de vakbonden genoeg van het kabinet: er komen acties aan

De vakbonden schorten het overleg met het nieuwe kabinet op en bereiden acties voor. Reden zijn de bezuinigingen op sociale zekerheid. De vervoerders en havenmedewerkers moeten nu al „in toom” worden gehouden, zegt de FNV. „Waarom haal je het geld niet bij vermogens.”

Angstige momenten in Dubai – ook voor Nederlandse influencers en hun volgers

Nederlanders massaal juichend de straat op na beelden van ‘doodzieke’ Karbonkel

​Karbonkel, de iconische tv-pop en tevens voor velen een nationaal trauma, is ziek. De pop heeft last van ‘eitjes en larven’ door z’n hele lijf en zal hierdoor vergaan. Het nieuws uit Hilversum wordt breeduit gevierd en door het hele land gaan mensen juichend de straat op.

“Eindelijk. Ik hoop dat ‘ie sterft, zieke kk pop!” roept een uitzinnige millennial terwijl ‘ie triomfantelijk in een fontein springt. Voor de hordes feestvierders voelt het als ‘karma’, na al het leed dat Karbonkel hen in hun jeugd heeft bezorgd. “Ik gun jou dit meer dan welke pop dan ook op aarde. En je kinderen ook.”

Toch was er voor veel mensen ook slecht nieuws: de artsen laten weten dat Karbonkel te behandelen is.

Dive into Wool Creature Lab’s World of Vibrant Felted Nudibranchs

Dive into Wool Creature Lab’s World of Vibrant Felted Nudibranchs

Among the myriad delights of the marine world, nudibranchs count among some of the most adorable. There are around 3,000 known species of these often very colorful, textured, soft-bodied animals. Technically part of the mollusc family, they shed their shells as they grow older, so we sometimes refer to them as “sea slugs,” but the name doesn’t exactly live up to their inherent style. For artist Arino Borevich of Wool Creature Lab, however, these unique minuscule beings truly shine in vibrant, felted fiber.

A decade ago, Borevich was working as a cook at a remote biology research station in northern Russia’s White Sea. “I was surrounded by 200 marine biologists and students living and working together on a small island,” she tells Colossal. “That summer changed everything. It was there that I first learned about nudibranchs—these impossibly colorful sea slugs with shapes and patterns that looked like they came from another planet.”

Wool Creature Lab was born when, as a way to pass time and explore her creativity, Borevich felted a few nudibranchs to gift to some of the scientists who were studying them. She started an Etsy shop and Instagram, going with a gut feeling that these little woolen specimens “wanted to exist in the world,” she says. Soon, marine biologists and divers from all over the world began to find her work, some of whom requested particular species, including scientists who had documented certain nudibranchs for the first time.

So far, Borevich has recreated more than 40 different kinds, carefully reimagining real, scientifically described creatures into meticulously crafted fiber versions. She has an ambitious dream to sculpt every one of the thousands of known nudibranchs. “Each sculpture takes six to 12 hours to make, so this might take a while,” she says.

More than two dozen of Borevich’s pieces were on view recently during the Xiamen International Art Festival in China as part of the Ark Farm eco-art exhibition. Support her work on Patreon, where she gives away a handmade nudibranch each month.

Iraq or UAE could take Iran’s World Cup finals spot due to Middle East crisis

  • Fifa regulations vague on issue of replacing any teams

  • Withdrawal would be first since France and India in 1950

Iraq and the United Arab Emirates are viewed as the most likely beneficiaries should Iran withdraw from the World Cup. Fifa’s general secretary, Mattias Grafström, said on Saturday that “our focus is to have a safe World Cup with everybody participating”, but the president of the Iranian Football Federation, Mehdi Taj, has raised doubts over his country’s participation by saying: “After this attack, we cannot be expected to look forward to the World Cup with hope.”

Fifa has not commented since Grafström spoke and remains determined to ensure the World Cup, which starts on 11 June, goes ahead as planned, but several sources have said that if its hand were forced by Iran’s withdrawal the replacement will probably come from the Asian Football Confederation.

A gas shock, not an oil shock, from the Iran war looks more threatening | Nils Pratley

Europe and Asia will take an economic hit if the supply of Qatari LNG is halted by the closure of the strait of Hormuz

The price of oil grabs most of the energy-related attention during conflicts in the Middle East for understandable reasons: oil is the commodity on which the world runs (still) and analysts have roughly reliable models for what every $10 per barrel increase in cost does to global growth and inflation.

So, on that front, one can say we’re still a long way from “oil shock” territory. Monday’s rise to $79 a barrel, up 9% since the end of last week, is sizeable, especially as the price was $62 at the start of this year, but remember that $125 was seen shortly after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022 and $100-plus was then sustained for three months.
