You can tell that LotR was written by an academic because Gandalf disappears for like 20 years doing research to answer a single question.

This place is almost as tacky inside as if Trump did the decorating himself. Almost, not quite.

Friendly Reminder: Ihr könnt wirklich fast alle Bücher auch einfach per Telefon bei der Buchhandlung Eures Vertrauens ohne Portokosten bestellen. Ich kann meinen Kram meist schon am Tag darauf abholen. Kein Paket-Falsch-Abgegeben-Stress, kein Geld an Bezos - Super Sache!

My advice: Like what you like and don't worry about anyone who tells you it's cringe. Life's short and the world's on fire, and as long as you're not hurting other people, you're fine. I mean, I still like U2, too! I don't care who knows it. If other people don't like that, that's a them problem.
I love U2. I feel like I could have glided along, enjoying them, if it wasn’t for that damned internet. Now I am on the defensive or lying low with my fandom. That’s happening somewhat now with Taylor Swift. She’s the biggest star in the world but the backlash has begun. “Mom pop”?

The most shameful language point about school kids in the U.K. is not the number who speak English as a second language, but the number who don’t speak any language other than English.

Even more, the number of adults who don’t.

Hello!
It doesn’t cost anything to repost but it helps me spread the word about my small business.

Germany’s sheer determination to box its already-struggling car industry into a dying technology will never cease to amaze me.
At today's🇪🇺#EUCO summit, national leaders are discussing ways to scrap EU climate legislation adopted in 2019-2024 term.

🇩🇪Chancellor Merz wants to kill the 2035 petrol car phase-out. And he's pushing to scrap corporate sustainability reporting, as promised to Trump.
Trump is unravelling the EU's climate plans
The EU was able to save global climate efforts during Trump's first term. But now European leaders are throwing in the towel, and even cancelling EU climate legislation at America's demand.

ALDI & co have long had a reputation in Germany for paying their staff well.

‘I could earn more on the tills at ALDI’ is a common refrain when someone is offered a low-paid job.
Genuinely fascinating that the only supermarkets paying all their staff above the London Living Wage are the German discounters.

Wie wichtig der Union die Sicherheit "unserer Töchter" (Friedrich Merz) im öffentlichen Raum ist, kann man im Übrigen gut daran ablesen, dass sie sich vehement gegen eine Unterstrafestellung des sogenannten Catcalling wehrt. #Stadtbild
