Sind die Kinder eher so 3 Monate alt oder eher so 30 Jahre?

It just lined up perfectly for me…

And why are they promoting a Soviet car?

Kraftklub are from Chemnitz. The Lada Niva has a cult following even here in the western part of Germany, so it must be even more intense over there.

Maybe they already did just to screw with Sierra Leone?

They recently had a pretty good (IMHO) song with Kraftklub, so yeah, still active and way less commercial than you’d think.

Aye. Kommentar heute früh im dlf war, dass Wissing “der Architekt der Ampel” war. Kann mir gut vorstellen, dass er selbst extrem angepisst war davon wie sich die FDP verhalten hat. Siehe dazu auch seinen Kommentar in der FAZ von letzter Woche: https://www.faz.net/aktuell/wirtschaft/mehr-wirtschaft/fdp-minister-volker-wissing-rueckzug-aus-koalition-waere-respektlos-110083319.html (ja, ich weiß, Paywall, kriege ich gerade nicht weg).

Hindsight is always 20/20 but I still think it could have worked. Greens and liberals aren’t natural enemies, climate reforms can be done via methods from the free market. A proper carbon certificate trade is still something I think could work wonders if done right and redistributing the acquired money to all citizens would have been in line with the social considerations of the SPD. This should have been the project of the traffic light coalition. Now we all now the liberals are a bunch of lying, opportunistic fucks, okay, but it could have worked if only they had tried.

Apathy? This isn’t apathy. Apathy doesn’t vote. Hate votes.

That was my point, pretty much. The issue is that money that’s kept is useless for society, but if its value increases it gains potential usefulness for its owner. I’m not saying that ordinary people will stop buying food and I’m not saying that corporations are doing community work right now, but the world in which the rich get even richer without even spending their money on something will be problematic at best. The economy will crash while everybody will hold on to whatever moves they have.

Deflation is actually bad because it would be an incentive to keep rather than spend money as its value would just increase by itself.

And on top of that they are generally much more expensive than American houses to begin with.

That very much depends on the area and the house itself.

So… I guess the first question is if the books should be written in German or if a good translation is enough. I’ll assume the latter and just won’t look whether a book was written in German or just translated.

Books aimed at children are a whole industry, more or less. Kids that learn how to read are their own target group, so you’ll find any genre you want. However, as the children are supposed to easily identify with their protagonists, they are often about school children doing stuff. More often than not about kids that read a lot and are quiet outsiders. If you can’t bear with that trope it’ll be a bit harder, but still manageable.

For criminal stories, there are some franchises that have been going on since more or less forever… “???” (“die drei Fragezeichen” and their “kids” spinoff that is targeted at younger audiences) or “tkkg” come to mind. A very German classic is “Emil und die Detektive”, which plays in Berlin in the 1920s and holds up very well.

If you’re more into fantasy, maybe Michael Ende’s more famous works are more to your liking. “Die unendliche Geschichte”, “Momo” or “Jim Knopf und Lukas der Lokomotivführer” are classics as well and just excellent. Cornelia Funke also wrote neat books, “Tintenblut” or “Drachenreiter” work really well. Recently, “die Schule der magischen Tiere” was pretty successful and my daughter loved the series.

Astrid Lindgren has good translations. All her stories are terrific. Pick anything. Some “Michael aus Lönneberga” book maybe.

Have you read the article you linked? The memorandum contains several obligations, including respecting Ukraine’s borders.

You couldn’t. It was hidden underneath ie flag.

“The level of offence that a vagina or penis can generate is absolutely bizarre.”

This makes me wonder so hard why people don’t switch to Mastodon instead. Like… You have literally seen this before! Why are you doing it again?
