They also destroyed the Pasteur Institute. They’re just bombing random shit.

Orang means human or person (not “guy”, honestly), (h)utan means forest.

Today’s Fascinating Horror “case” was pretty funny.

And the police in Bayern said they would be giving people money for driving less than 30 kph.

I support St Pauli and AFC Wimbledon and I live in Baden-Württemberg, nowhere near Hamburg or London.

I’m reading Flowers over the Inferno by, er, that Italian lady whose name I can’t remember.

My parents don’t talk about their own ailments, they talk about other people’s ailments. They’re pretending that they’re both perfectly healthy, thankyouverymuch.

You have to have one of those little baggies with repair stuff on the back of your saddle.

I bet a participant in the tour de, er, Mars would notice. It’s what’s called a “vals plat” in Dutch, a stretch that seems flat but is surprisingly hard to cycle on.

Should I ask the neighbours 🤔?

Not here in Germany. You won’t find a vet who will kill a healthy animal. Kill shelters are also not a thing. Ditto the UK.

Certain circumstances can be “being very, very depressed.” You don’t have to be ill or in physical pain.

Countries that have assisted dying do not make it “easy”. Especially when someone isn’t physically ill, they throw every type of therapy and help at them to persuade them not to kill themselves.

My cat suddenly became paralysed last year. What should I have done?

And Asians? Over here people are just as racist towards Asians.

“Oh I’m different. I had a good reason.”

The biggest piece of shit I know (MAGA, gun nut, religious nutcase, married his daughters off to desirable candidates) lives near the Mexican border and takes in immigrants who have illegally crossed the border, gives them food and drink and sends them on their way. No, he doesn’t call ICE.

Also: the tolerance paradox. Being anti-trans is not “an opinion people are allowed to have” (I’ve seen that one several times over the past few days). If it does harm, stfu.

I’m doing a cycle tour in Poland this year. I picked it because it was cheaper than any cycle tour anywhere else in Europe, even with half board.

Getting there may be expensive, but staying there isn’t.

Nah. That’s a “Help, I’m stuck” face.
