Poor microwave UX is my white whale and the Germans somehow do it EVEN WORSE than the Americans. 😭

Good on you, @techconnectify.bsky.social . There's room for you in #berlin when you can't take it anymore. In the mean time, keep up the fight.

Die Leute sagen, Schnee wird schnell alt, aber ich komme aus einem warmen Ort — für mich ist das alles noch neu.

#adamduritz didn't wrestle Mr. Jones somewhere in middle America just to get this kind of disrespect

I have too much self respect to use the bottom emoji, but admittedly snow gets me close. #berlin #snow #icomefromawarmplace

Kidnapping #maduro in #venezuela is a masterstroke and as usual we on the Left are missing the point--but there is an opportunity here. A thread. 1/22

The older I get, the more my politics mature from childish, naïve beliefs like "the world is complicated and leaders have to make hard decisions" to more serious, adult principles like "hurting people is bad and helping people is good."

I know Dawn is a controversial character, but rewatching #buffythevampireslayer, I'm struck by what an awesome choice #MichelleTrachtenberg was for the role and how well the groundwork is laid. The transition from annoying little sister to human confronting memetic horror is 🤌👨‍🍳💋

Telling that @tldrnews.bsky.social is getting overtly preachy about European strategic autonomy (and I have no objection.)

"Should be overwhelming clear that the US just isn't a reliable partner for Europe. Strategic autonomy is the only way to...guard against this sort of extortion."

Trump's 28 Peace Plan has been leaked and it hasn't gone down well with either Ukraine or Europe. So in this video, we'll explain what's in the deal, whether or not Ukraine should accept it and why it...

I know just enough German to be annoyed when advertisers duzen me.

I feel this graphic design should have been market-tested beyond Germany.

Free SciFi scene I think is funny and you can use:

1: I regret we don't have the instrumentation for the Earth Planetary Anthem. I'll be performing it alone--I hope to do it justice.
2: I've always thought it was quite easy.
1: [hurt]

I was sadly lacking a plug adapter, but then I found a magical place called #canadiantire that is open on Canadian Thanksgiving and seems to sell everything except tires

By far the funniest joke in #lowerdecks is that it casually and canonically tells us where we go when we die.

So we had no idea the major action for Gaza going on in #london this weekend. Happened to get a hotel along the march route and happened to wander out for lunch precisely as it was approaching, at which point we were accidentally but enthusiastically involved. #callitgenocide #ceasefirenow
