Heard a lot of consternation over some ECB paper or some bullshit.

As an American though it doesn’t register, I simply can’t take our vassal states seriously.

People be like how does it feel to go all in on bitcoin? It feels a lot like…

My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius.

Commander of the Armies of the North.

General of the Felix Legions

Loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius.

Father to a murdered son.

Husband to a murdered wife.

And I will have my vengeance…

In this life or the next.

If you could hand pick anyone to be President of the United States (following same rules, must be 35 or older, U.S. born) who would it be? 🤔

Just got stopped, searched, bag strewn on the airport floor on arrival to Germany.

I’m a bit shaken up that was horrid.

The Alsatian sniffer dog was adamant I had something on me.

I know I dont have any drugs so I was trying to be helpful to speed it up. But it’s pretty intimidating when they’re so abrupt and aggressive.

The policeman was a massive cunt though. Threw my stuff on the floor and was the “guilty until proven innocent” kind of guy.

“You have drugs. I am going to find them .”

He made me repack my bag in front of the queue leaving the plane.

I held up the queue though and they were all scowling, naturally.

They tested my hands with some swab thing and the lady policemen had to check with the other guy and said “it’s high.”

It can’t possibly be the case as I haven’t touched weed since maybe the summer?

Hate to judge but there weren’t a lot of brain cells between them.

But they still weren’t satisfied so i got paraded through past the gate to do a “underpants search” as they were adamant I had something.

At this point i was like what are my right here, you can’t just strip search someone.

Once we went through the gate though the sniffer dog changed its mind.

It stopped butting my right thigh. Thank fuck for that.

But man. All that coz they thought I had a bit of weed?

Gahhhhh. Jesus wept what a waste of resources. I missed my train and I’m probs gonna go full radicalised.

Fuck the fucking fuckers.

welcome to germany lol

A taboo perspective on WWII I learned since living in Germany:

If anyone but Churchill became PM in May 1940, there would have been peace by July.

The death toll from the whole war in Europe would be <200k. The only land contested would be what was lost in WWI.

There was no Holocaust yet, so that was no reason to continue. Maybe there never would have.

All we know is that continuing the war famously didn't stop it and probably made it worse.

In hindsight, we can worry about a future invasion of the USSR and whatnot.

But that still doesn't explain or excuse the decision to keep fighting in 1940.

Do the Germans have a point? 🤔
