Watching Placid Lake on Netflix, because we're both sick.

My wife looking at the date: That film is so old it would have voted for Trump.

Wenn die 96j Patientin mit den Worten:

"Ich werde mein Kreuz in zwei Wochen so setzen, dass Ihre Kinder nicht meine Kindheit erleben müssen"

den Raum verlässt, dann brauche ich um 9h morgens die erste Pause, weil ich in Tränen ausbreche.

In der Schule hat man uns jahrelang eingetrichtert, was wir tun müssen, um zu verhindern, dass der Faschismus zurück kehrt. Dass Medien und Politik uns ignorieren, wenn wir zu Millionen auf die Straßen gehen, haben sie nicht gesagt.

Jup. Und die Berichterstattung fühlt sich an als ob du nichts tun kannst, um den Kellerbesitzer dazu zu bringen, den Schimmel zu beseitigen...

“Are you sure you’re all right?” This was the fourth time he had asked her that and I was beginning to understand why she was so annoyed with authority figures all the time.
