No ingredient does more heavy lifting than the jam in a Jammy Dodger. The non-jammy biscuit bits are really poor quality.

You can do languages if you're curious about how other people see the world, if you want to live experiences to the fullest, if you long to share songs and stories, if you aim to influence and persuade, if you're looking to connect across borders. Languages expand horizons and options for everyone.

"This morning, Germany is one nation again." This is how BBC Breakfast News reported on German reunification on 3 October 1990.

I'm half-British and half-Thai. A random right-winger verbally racially abused me in the street for no reason at all. That same man was in my A&E ward a couple of days later due to a cardiac arrest. I was the doctor who saved him. There's a moral in that story somewhere.

A shrinking population, retiring baby boomers and falling immigration are combining to deepen Germany's labour crisis. Eastern states in particular face big gaps, just as far-right politics push potential workers away.

Can Germany still attract foreign workers as skilled labour shortages spike?

Totally relate. My mum is 80. Lost my dad last Christmas but even before that they would never ring. When they did, panic stations. Now it’s just my mum, an unsolicited phone call had me halfway to the airport. 😂😳

Local libraries shouldn't just be for novels and children's storytime. Local libraries should offers access to academic journals. Maybe not every journal as there are so many. But they should offer access to a few of the top journals in every field.

Given the main source of joy for me in Germany is cute old-town areas, I probably should get around to moving out of Munich.
A scenic, low-angle view of the colorful waterfront buildings along the Neckar River in Tübingen, Germany.A row of traditional multi-story houses with steeply pitched roofs and vibrant facades in shades of yellow, pink, and white stands beneath a vast, bright blue sky filled with a dense pattern of white, fluffy altocumulus clouds. The spire of a historic church rises behind the buildings. In the foreground, vibrant hanging flower baskets filled with red, pink, and yellow blossoms frame the left and center of the shot. A crowd of people gathers along the riverside promenade at the bottom of the frame, enjoying the sunny day.

A recent survey found that 92% of U.S. adults have delayed or avoided medical care due to high costs. Meanwhile, a new study from Yale estimates that Medicare for All would save over 114,000 lives and $1 trillion a year. If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have universal healthcare.

You really want to know why kids are depressed and isolated? It's not social media. Or phones. Adults have created a world with fuck all future. No job security. No owning your own home. No real action on climate. Adults need to take responsibility for what they have done.

Beautiful hasn’t always been ‘beautiful’. In Old English, one of the words for it was ‘sċēne’. This word became ‘sheen’, but as an adjective, it’s all but dead. Its Germanic cognates include German ‘schön’, Dutch ‘schoon’, and Swedish ‘skön’. They were derived from a verb related to ‘show’: 1/

A phishing attempt was just made on me that was really quite convincing. Someone reached out earlier this week to schedule a call about doing a basic income talk at their college. Got a StreamYard link via email but it showed a bad connection error when I signed in to chat. Tried Firefox and Chrome.

This is so sad. My kids are 22 and 24 and I recently said they missed out on the wild teen party years due to COVID. Saying that, they are pretty content and maybe you don’t have to have experienced friends puking their guts up after drinking 4 cider and blackcurrants …

AirBnBs are universally crap now. They used to be cheaper than hotels and often nicer. But now by the time you add on the cleaning and service fees it's more expensive, and you have to clean before you leave. There is no reason to stay in an AirBnb over a hotel.

So. Finally watched the Odyssee. And what can I say.. in spite of lots of brilliant thoughts and pieces I read over those last days.. Main take away for me: The world would be a better place without men. The safest spot in life is when you’re on your ship. Bring ear plugs.

I coach kids football. My team hasn't won a game all season. That's because I have an inclusive team and take all kids who want to play. I'm oversubscribed. I look down on coaches whose teams win because they kicked out all the weaker children.
