The most British German you'll ever meet 😎 🇪🇺🇬🇧🇺🇦 A decidedly non-eclectic mix of wargaming, politics, Ukraine and memes. BT once addressed me as "Dr Volts" so that is now my secret Cold-War Supervillain identity. Rhubarb is not food and you know it 🥬👊

What I love about Western democracy is you can bung a political party £ 36 million earned from criminal activity & most media will continue to point at asylum seekers & migrant care workers with families as the barbarians at the gate we need to defend ourselves from 🙄.

Seconding Garmin. Very good Samsung/android compatibility, good battery life, very precise recording, as simple or as customisable as your want. Using a 4 years old Vivoactive 4S and it's pretty perfect

Meanwhile in Ukraine @meanwhileua.bsky.social · 10/09/2026
Ukraine quietly rolled back a Russian salient Moscow spent about a year building. ㅤ In four months, the 3rd Army Corps retook 200+ km² north of Lyman and pushed Russian forces toward the Zherebets River. ㅤ A year of Russian gains, cut down in four months.

I wasn't aware that it was the job of the head of government to sit back and not have an opinion on actual Bills, but here we apparently are. As long as he is really committed to make it easier to get out of magazine subscriptions, I guess 🤷

Asking people who risk their lives every day travelling to work, shopping for food, or even when sleeping in their own homes, to stand in a long queue outside a polling station to make a cross on a piece of paper, is disconnected from their reality at the very least

Ohhh no no no no. Not at all, relatively speaking. I keep telling people how refreshing it is that this - comparatively - isn't the case at all here. Have you met... Germans?
