It’s 10C, there’s a hail/thunderstorm out there and I’m keeping the windows closed.

Everything is politics and anyone who thinks it isn’t needs to check their privilege.

I’m willing to bet it tastes soapy to everyone, it’s just that not everyone likes it. It’s another one of those weird “look at me, I’m unique” things (no, aphantasia doesn’t exist either, Kevin, nobody has a TV in their head).

Most people use adaptive brightness.

Welcome to being royalty in ye good old days. You were sold off to the most useful ally. They didn’t expect you to start having sex/babies straight away, it was a business transaction.

I find it very weird he (and Crash Course too) isn’t top of the list in this thread.

We had fog here down in southern Germany. Just fog. All winter. So bloody miserable. And not enough rain by a long shot to keep the forest from dying.

The Bylines network is good and free (apart from the necessary ads, of course).

Bild is a shitty tabloid. Love, Germany.

That’s what my grandma said. The family fought for weeks.

Weekend at Bernie’s style around It’s a Small World?

There’s a burial forest near here, I’ll be quite happy there. No markers, no embalment, no coffin, just a shroud and trees.

Guards. It’s a… controversial… school.

Move your bed into the living room.

I still have mine at my parents’ place. I’ve told them not to throw it away, so they probably will and then look surprised when I’m upset about it.

My son aged in a very similar way. I’m sure he hasn’t had any surgery.

Box breathing makes me feel out of breath, which is not an improvement.

Suffering soggy confetti overload (the southern Germans take their carnaval/Fastnacht very seriously).

Depends on where you live. There’s a school behind a row of terraced houses near me that uses bright floodlights all night. People have had to move their bedrooms to the front of their houses. The police refuses to do anything.

For news: the Bylines network in the UK. They have a source checker for every article.
