The Mallorca rule applies here too: if you can't function outside of Bödefeld-Schmallenberg, just stay in fucking Bödefeld-Schmallenberg. Not like the rest of the world is jonesing for a visit from some of the least fun people on the planet.

Bundeskanzler Merz fliegt zwar zur Klimakonferenz und suggeriert, er kümmere sich. Aber kaum ist er zurück, düpiert er die Gastgeber und macht das Fliegen billiger. Das ist pure

Friedrich Merz: Die So-als-ob-Politik
Der Kanzler verspricht Klimaschutz und will gleichzeitig Fliegen billiger machen. Und er ist damit nicht allein. Das zeigt, wie sehr Trump inzwischen abfärbt.

💔 Alice Wong’s last words: “Don’t let the bastards grind you down.”

We can never thank Alice enough for fighting all the good fights and especially all the hard fights. We all learned so much from your brilliance, your courage, and your indefatigable leadership. We will never forget you.

I mean, if Trump gets to run a third time, so does Obama, no? www.politico.com/news/2025/11...
Democrats are searching for their next leader. But they still have Obama.
Obama’s reemergence is a reminder of the rudderlessness of the Democratic Party, which is still reeling from stinging losses in 2024.
