His american colleagues sometimes poke fun at my cousins branch for only working 35 hours a week, taking long vacations and having lots of state mandated holidays throughout the year. When they hire someone new they sometimes comment on how lazy the german colleagues are…

Then they point them towards the numbers and the fact that the german branch is constantly setting the productivity records. They’ve been outperforming the americans by more than 10% for years.

Thank you!

Dear writers, if you need stupid characters, don’t make them scientists acting stupid in their own field of expertise!

If you need your charachters to be scientists, don’t make them act stupid in their own field of expertise!

You can always have the geologist touch alien biology with bare hands or have the biologist get lost in the cave, but not the other way around!! (I mean you still shouldn’t, they are scientists after all, but it’s the easier pill to swallow)

This entire movie was a big pile of garbage and demystifying the xenomorphs did not help the franchise at all. The numbers for covenant weren’t bad (just) because covenant was bad, they were bad because prometheus completely killed any drive to sit through a sequel.

Hollywood needs to stop killing franchises with horrible writing, don’t buy and kill a franchise for quick profit, improve it, expand it. Invest in good writing and less people will notice the audacious lack of creativity in creating something new.

What’s more well known around the world, Wacken or Rammstein? Because Wacken is smaller than Ramstein and would be the better answer but my guess is that Rammstein are more known.

Ramstein, population ~5600

Famous for the Ramstein Air base, the bombing of the air base, the Ramstein air show disaster and the band named after all of that.

ZSK - Antifascista we always need more, proud, dangerous, commited antifascists.

For me, this song is an example of a bold, counter rightwing-populism narrative. We need more strong and proud narratives on the left, to tell people they can feel important, powerful, accepted and part of something important - on the morally correct side of history.

This mortifies europeans of every generation. In Scandinavia you can leave your pram unsupervised outside a café so your child can sleep well in the cool fresh air while you get a coffee and talk to the other parents doing the same. European schoolchildren walk or bike to school from first grade onwards and they can take public transportation all on their own. Our playgrounds would be deemed suicidal by modern american parents and they would freak out knowing children learn to whittle with sharp knives in a waldkindergarten.

I really don’t know how americans can still believe to be the freest nation when the only freedom index they are not completely outclassed by european nations is the economic freedom index.

To quote the greatest poet of our time:

The finger to the land of the chains What? The “land of the free”? Whoever told you that is your enemy.

His only regret is that he doesn’t know where to deport the natives to.

That has actually been tested!

Big cats notice the laserpointer but they don’t really chase it. Most likely because they don’t hunt insects and small rodents.

If you count the election as the biggest possible poll, that let’s you infer which way the non-voters would have gone.

And if you are a non-voter, that means you have declared the eventual outcome as your preferred outcome, since you did not vote otherwise.

couldn’t be bothered to give a shit

Which means they chose this too. The only people without any culpability are the ones who voted for Harris or who for many reasons were not able to vote.

Doesn’t mean that the people who did not vote are as much at fault as the ones voting for Trump, but they share part of the blame.

Americans HAVE their country, this is what they want, this is what they voted for. Stop treating Americans as if this is something pressed upon them. They chose this. Now they will live with the consequences.

20 million PLUS all the Trump voters.

You must not focus solely on non-voters.

• The people voting for Trump are much more directly responsible.
• You will need those non-voters in the future, completely alienating them now will not help the cause.

Still the same, electoral college are the ones voting for the president, not the people, the latter only elect the electors, not the president. GOP will likely produce a new candidate and electors will decide between them and Harris and most likely elect the republican nominee. Theoretically the electoral college could still vote for Harris, some states can have Faithless Electors.

Doesn’t mean anything if he dies of natural causes, the party that believes in jewish space lasers will cry wolf anyway.

President Vance 🤮 with a pretext to hunt down political enemies

My point is that you can’t lose against the worst human being twice and keep blaming the electorate.

If the electorate votes for the worst human being twice they definitely deserve a freaking hulking heap of blame.

Simiiformes is a clear and distinct clade.

There is no such thing for trees, because “tree” is a botanical classification, not a cladistical one.

If baboons and macaques are monkeys, and if howlermonkeys and spidermonkeys are monkeys, humans MUST be monkeys.

Because they can ONLY both be monkeys if their common ancestor was also a monkey and we share that very same common ancestor. In fact we are closer related to macaques and baboons than to spidermonkeys, which means we share a more recent common ancestor with old world monkeys than both us and the other old world monkeys share with the new world monkeys.

Cladistically, you can not outgrow your ancestry.

Humans are apes, apes are a subgroup of monkeys, monkeys are a subgroub of primates.
