Today, the #Buergen🔥 burn in Luxembourg! This tradition is meant to chase away the winter. Plus, socialising around a bonfire while holding a Glühwäin (mulled wine) after a long and nasty season is the way to reconnect with everybody and meet new faces.

Starting today, 🇱🇺 police cracks down on mendicants, as ordered by Interior Minister Léon Gloden. A police union representative said that there were no instructions to differentiate between organised and non-organised begging and officers will be applying the law.

I am amazed every time how anti-regime, anti-mainstream, anti-media, anti-liberal haters announce the most outageous events about to happen to galvanise their following, then just dump more dung when nothing materialises like it doesn't matter. Which, in all fairness, it doesn't.

Haven't watched the show yet, but I finished the book a couple of weeks ago. Made me want to hug Terry's collected writings and have a soft cry 💔. And start reading more from @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com (where to start?). A brilliant piece of writing by two masters of their art.

You do stick together in Wales, don't you? 😃 Still, I have a soft spot for both, philosophy and the Welsh, so a follow it is 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Nicht jeder Visionär taugt zum Project Manager. Besorgniserregend wird es, wenn Visionäre ihre Kompetenzen und ihren Einfluss überschätzen. Dann muss das visionärste Projekt versanden.

Luxembourg's Health Ministry is raising the alarm: 9% of 🇱🇺 population is drinking alcohol every day. How else would you support local distillers, brewers and vintners? #buylocal 🍻✌️

This makes me smile: self-optimising slaves get conned by shady start-up out of desperation to be 110% productive. End of story: they lose money, sleep and, eventually, productivity while becoming mental wrecks.
