@Centristocrat @simongerman600 The "51st poorest state" would be the wealthiest one of course. So that attempt at an insult seems to have fallen a little flat.
But at least you tried. Just like your president, and your secretary of health, when they were trying their hand at calculating percentages.

@bopanc @CIA You and your research are mentioned here: https://t.co/sNkOWsMV4P
They say you were fed your lines from Scholz' grey eminence, Wolfgang Schmidt, who wanted to kneecap Selensky.
I'd really be interested in the truth about this affair. But I have little hope.

@J_O_Holliday Sorry, quite an obscure quotation. May your thesis be finished as quickly as the GDR was after Erich H.'s quote, but with the opposite success. https://t.co/ncWE4iVot9

In case anyone forgot: Russia went to war in 2014 to prevent Ukraine from signing a Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreement with the EU.

@DrJEBall @DavidManstra Maybe another factor was the chance of being set free, especially for slaves close to the owner or his family and in a position to harm them? Romans did set some slaves free after all ("libertino patre natus"). So, a hope to reinforce the fear of punishment.

@BirgitSusemihl Und wer mag, kann dann noch diese schöne Studie weiterlesen, die einem sagt, wie genau man an der Überhitzung krepieren wird. Man hat Auswahl, es gibt 27 verschiedene Formen, Kombinationen sind zulässig.

I will end with an unrelated note:
One is the impact of desertification. Damascus seemed to me much more arid than when I lived there before 2012. I realised that when I saw the difference after travelling to my home village near the coastal area and when I returned to Beirut. The Syrian capital, besides being extremely crowded and polluted, is also very dusty, its trees look grey, not green. Actually, you barely see the green colour in the city, and we are still in the month of March. I can’t imagine how things will look like in September. This is clearly the impact of many things but amidst the terrible impact of the war, it is concerning that we may not be realising enough the terrible consequences of climate change on the Middle East region.

@APHClarkson Seeing how "patriotic" authoritarians wreck social stability, welfare and the rule of law once they're in power does a lot for what you call Sozialstaatspatriotismus, I suppose.

Cynically put: Trump cutting Medicaid might help keeping BSW and AfD in check over here.

The pelicans have been extra bold lately, trying their hardest to snatch a free meal from the ospreys. They are rarely successful, but this time the pelican managed a very clever sneak attack from behind. The osprey, thinking it was free and clear, tried to shake off the water weight from the dive, and that little pause was all it took for the hungry pelican to close the gap and its gaping maw around the osprey’s catch. It’s crazy out there sometimes.

Die Verhaftung eines AfD-Funktionärs in Sachsen wegen Terrorverdachts zeigt: In der Partei setzen viele, nicht nur Randfiguren, auf Gewalt. Abermals: Es ist Zeit für ein Verbotsverfahren. https://t.co/B9e6p0Z56F

@LiebeKlaus @niusde_ Ob die Krisen-PR-Taktik der Gesinnungsgenossen aufgeht ("relativ harmlose Wandergruppe"), wenn der Parteifreund selbst bei der Festnahme noch ballern wollte? Bissel balla balla. https://t.co/XgcpG7v9qs

[Simon @simoncito17]

@LiebeKlaus @niusde_ Ihre Gesinnungsgenossen neigen halt von jeher zu einem gewissen Größenwahn, Herr Liebe. Das bringt diese Art Ideologie so mit sich.

AfD-Mann Hättasch wurde auf dem Landgut von Herrn Kubitschek geschult, entnimmt man der taz. Interessant, nicht wahr?

@40PercentGerman Another one of those is "ach", also in the form of "ach was", or "ach ja?".
