To you this may be “just a magpie”, but to this magpie you may well mean the world.

Well, the person who posted this has a hobby, mainly posting quotes by famous people, who are not famous at all, so as a circular argument the quote works quite well 🤪

At least it is served attractively.

Although I’m still pissed off with the British for voting in favor of Brexit, I have in the meantime forgiven them to a certain extent. So if somebody with a British accent addresses me in the street, I am somewhat willing to give them an answer in English. Scots I will always help, naturally, them dressed in wee skirts and with their quaint musical instruments. As to how the British should react to visiting Yanks; just answer in your local dialect, nobody can understand that. Be warned, though, some yanks put Canadian flags on their backpacks and clothing. In case of uncertainty, ask them from which Canadian province they come (yankees will not know what a “province” is), or speak French with them.

For instance, when they come over as tourists to Europe, they will find out that fewer people will be willing to answer them in English.

The most exciting accidents happen when people get involved. Chernobyl comes to mind.

Reads like a crime story! Doesn’t bode well.

As an author and musician I find this post repulsive.

You can’t fix stupid.

Reading this thread I’m even more convinced to keep on using a physical key.

This mayor probably doesn’t mind if a private person lowers their flag for a country singer. He only seems to care for a flag in front of eg the city hall. That’s how I interpret the text.

In nomine patris et filii et spiritus sancti, amen.

Ah early starters.

Ah shit fell for that one 🤓

Hot rickety, sweet Jesus!

We have two of those in our home, I installed small rings in the water tube, so that much less water comes out. Now, even our guests do not completely spray the bathroom . Added advantage: better for the climate.

Because the subscribers are horrible people too.

Coffee prices will continue to go up; most people do not realize that already today climate collapse is responsible for part of the inflation. Coffee and chocolate plantations are suffering from erratic weather and droughts. In addition, demand for coffee is continuously increasing too; but overall all crops are suffering from lower productivity, so food will get more and more expensive… even if we manage to not pass the 2.5C global heating.

Whatever for? I don’t see how Obama influenced coffee pricing?
