I am saying it and standing my ground. I’ll take 1000 Wham over it.

Der Winter Erkältung hat sich auf meinem Gesicht niedergelassen.

Wow, that’s terrible

When I have bought it here in Germany, it’s just like pie filling. Rote Grütze may be distinctly different than the one with the Kirsch label.

We have changed our traditions because of this, and now my family gives donations to causes that people in the US have indicated and vice versa. Honestly, we are all a bit burned on the capitalistic mess anyway.

Some guy hopped in on a thread in German with quotes around it and then switched to English and just said let’s talk about it, felt like a bot. Of course it was about police violence and they wanted to know if I had proof it was Berlin cops beating people in Gießen (it was visible on the videos)

Same 🙌🏻

Very weird spammy things happening on Bluesky today and I don’t like it

What is there to talk about? Berlin cops regularly beat protesters, and they did the same in Gießen

Auf den Rückenaufnähern steht „BE“, was meiner Meinung nach für Berlin steht, da Bremen „HB“ und Bayern beispielsweise „BY“ ist.

@petegreenberg.bsky.social is the hero of the day. I wasn’t sure I would get my Goodness record with the whole tariff debacle, but it came today, along with stickers and a 7” I didn’t expect. Such a warm balm from my former home on a cold winter day. ❤️‍🔥

Everybody has their thing, I say enjoy it ☺️

I mean, where is the fervour over Mariah Carey assaulting our eardrums each year? That's my least favorite

This year we're doing Whamutopia. Every time you hear Last Christmas you have to have a mulled wine at your earliest convenience and toast George Michael, because he was a lad

You too? I feel like there was something in the air. I kept trying to go to sleep, but nothing was working. Phew on the near miss!

My husband also read that the people doing the beating there were brought in from Berlin, checks out from the police violence we’ve seen here

A wise man once said:

This would be the perfect community based GoFundMe thing, I’d kick in a couple bucks out of spite

LAP showing how awful they are again (PS I carry legal insurance, bring it)

Grievance based responses to people who don’t like you just validates them, and makes you look foolish. The sooner their VC bucket has emptied, the better.

My employer’s chief legal counsel posted a rap this week on slack, this reminds me of it 😣

Time to eat ☺️

Thankful @hedgehogknight.bsky.social didn’t move to the US like we initially thought about, and angry people are going through this

You didn’t fool the bot 🤖

Chef progress: T-30 to feast

I’ve seen cranberries off and on, but this time we came up empty in our corner. Not a turkey fan so the roast chicken works perfect for the 3 of us. Plus, that schmaltzy cabbage is to die for.

Hope you had a great time!
