  • Magst du erläutern, warum? Ich kenne ihn aus GIGA-Zeiten als mittelprächtig gewitzten Gamer. Ich hab tatsächlich einen subtil fiesen Vibe gespĂźrt, kann aber gar nicht sagen, wieso. Deshalb wĂźrde mich das mal interessieren.

    Even Mehdi Hasan wonders if Democrats want to lose.
  • Whelp. This is the party that lost against Trump in 2016 by shafting Bernie. These Democrats deserve to lose the election but as usual, the consequences will be suffered by the common people. So one cannot even gloat over them losing a safe bet again.

  • No, America the Beautiful would never force citizens of foreign descent into camps! Certainly not on account of racism! And not in the hundreds of thousands!

  • And nowadays they are supplemented and partially superseded by European EN directives. This is the kind of stuff that hardly anyone realizes but is enormously helpful in everyday life. Your toilet seat breaks, you just go ahead and buy a new one. Its mount points, dimensions, and load bearing characteristics are standardized so no need to get a degree in toiletology or whatever. Just buy any one you like. Same idea with light bulbs, printer paper, piping connections, door jambs, etc. etc. Standardization makes life SO much easier.

    This has been Tea Time with Mr Worf
  • The Oxford English Dictionary and Merriam-Webster disagree with you. Yes, the primary meaning of the word fly is moving through the air on wings, but they explicitly say space travel can also be called flying. Also this was about the man flying through space, not the craft.

    AuDHD assessment suggestion
  • I find it real easy to detect ADHD in people but that doesn't automatically make me want to be friends with them. We're people like everyone else at the end of the day. Some nice, some not so much.

  • Ist das eine Vollzeitstelle bei der Dortmunder Polizei? Oder kann man auch in Teilzeit dort Raser werden?

    Ich hätte ja Foto des Rasers (Quelle: Polizei Dortmund) geschrieben.

    Zwiebelplootz time is here
  • But beware, every town and sometimes family has their own, slightly different recipe

    Also beware of the toxic farts brought on by this delicacy. I got thrown out of class as a kid once after having Zwiebelkuchen (same thing) the previous day. 😬💨

  • I like the idea of not yielding semantic authority to fascists. Like here in Germany, I've seen (minor) shitstorms over the phrase "to each their own" ("Jedem das Seine") because the Nazis put that on the gate of Buchenwald concentration camp. But the principle of "suum cuique" goes way back to ancient times and is a central tenet of our legal system. So why should we let Nazis dictate what the words we use mean?

    That said, they coined a whole bunch of expressions that are rightfully frowned upon to this day and I have no issue with that kind of criticism. I've never felt the need to label anyone's relationship as "racial shame," for instance.

    Just my two cents.
