Then you should visit south europe. Europe is divided by the alps in a lot of things, like potato or tomato as main ingredient in meals. But also in culture itself. Everything north of the alps is kinda cold and seems unhappy/angry and stressed all the time and south of it people seem chill, happy and friendly.

As others said Switzerland. It’s beautiful and all but really expensive. It really took away a big part of fun when I went there. But not only that, I thought the swiss people seemed sometimes kinda "rude"or maybe a better word for it “cold” and a little annoyed if it came to tourists. I get it, it’s a small county and a lot of people are visiting each year, but it still wasn’t fun for me to be there and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone to go there.

And North France near the German border like Strasbourg. The city and the region is beautiful as well, but the people are often like the cliché everybody knows and that sucks if you’re a tourist. But the south of France like Marseille and the Provence is always worth a visit. The people are chill, enjoying life in the typical mediterranean way and are often friendlier (and often speak English at least in the bigger cities/tourist areas).

As mentioned by other commentators, negative, emotional news sell the best and the news nearly perfected this method during the last couple of years. Yes, it isn’t as good as pre pandemic times, but it’s not the worst. For me it really helped to limit my news time to max. once a day (like in the past with the newspaper in the morning or a news show in the evening) and watching things called “good news”. In Germany some TV shows have this category so I never searched it on social media or YouTube, but I bet there are some channels/pages dedicated to good news (like there is a new treatment for disease XY or here is a good step in the fight against climate change, but sometimes just news like “the big panda isn’t as endangered as it was”.

If you don’t have much time to spare I would recommend to wait a little more. It would still be a big support if you buy it at full price in fall.

(couldn’t find it on any other side, so it’s a like to the bad r page, sorry!) A couple of years ago I laughed way to hard on this pic: https://images.app.goo.gl/Mxz1apkpmAsPTsiS7

Wasn’t it that COVID came as a surprise for most scientists cause they bet on avian flu viruses? So it isn’t any new info and a fear they’ve had for quite some time now.

I heard from a guy from the German COVID watch (RKI), that the probability for a new epidemic is around 2.x% each year and around 1.x% for a pandemic. That’s why there is a big epidemic around every 30-50 years and a pandemic every 80-100 years. What type of virus will be the next big thing is nothing but a guess and often wrong (like COVID out of nowhere), cause it’s difficult to predict the next mutation of a virus. That’s also why a lot of flu vaccines in the past didn’t have the effect they hoped for (mostly it’s still a very good vaccine!).

Schneesturm (snow storm) or Ameisenkrieg (ant war) in German.

Oh I feel you! I ate spaghetti Bolognese ice cream a couple of years ago and I couldn’t stand it. Ice cream is great and Bolognese is great but not mixed together.

I just wanted to buy safety pins. I couldn’t find any. Looked at the supermarket, dm even mall like stuff like Galaria Kaufhof, nothing. The only place at that time I could buy some was amazon or as you said, another soulless online retailer with the worst shipping companies.

Oh nice, duden itself isn’t consistent with it’s content. Searching “Schiffahrt” gets me the result that the triple f is the old way of writing it: https://www.duden.de/rechtschreibung/Schiffahrt

But I don’t understand your last sentence. If both are correct than both are the right way. It’s just like “größer wie xy” is correct for a couple of years. Maybe it doesn’t sound nice, but it’s correct.

Do you mean until 1996? Looked it up on Duden.de and there it’s only “Schiffahrt” with the mention you wrote it “Schifffahrt” in the past.

Interesting, cause I stopped giving things away for free or at least I don’t write it into the offer, cause in Germany it happend quite a lot that people didn’t show up, when I wanted to just give it away. I don’t know why, maybe if it’s free it’s not that important I guess? So I started to offer things for a few bucks but still I want some money (at least I write that I want money). When someone arrives and wants to pick something up I just tell them to just take it. That way I get rid of so much more stuff and the people collecting stuff are always so happy as well.

Oh please let someone refuse to marry a hetero couple.

As sad as it is I think you’re right. The same was said about facebook and even though they had a bumpy road it’s bigger than ever before. Nothing being sold at the stock market follows any logical rules, it’s so much emotion that sells stuff. And as long as it makes money, nobody cares about racism or pedophilia or any other bad thing. I thought that’s why we hate capitalism that much.
