- Comment on Why do I fart all the time when I'm trying to sleep?! 1 week ago:
Walking will help sort your guts out as well, so by going for a late walk, you can take the problem to the outside!
Otherwise it’s probably just a question of your gut biome having a lot of gas producing parts.

Und jetzt alle! “Ich hab ne Zwiebel aufm Kopp, ich bin ein Döner 🎺”
Oder vielleicht lieber doch nicht, wenn ich so drüber nachdenke.

That’s great news! Occasionally I browse the NA beers and last week I thought how great it would be to be able to drink a Guinness! Maybe it arrives here sometime.
- Comment on Even this post is propaganda. 7 months ago:
That’s exactly how they get you, by telling you everybody is influenced (and stupid) but you and them, the smart people.
- Comment on It's more interesting when self-directed 7 months ago:
Yeah, there is, not by chance, a “story” in “history”. It needs to be told, by somebody who knows how to do that. Learning facts from old books, the studying, is one part, weaving them into a whole, the telling, the other.
- Comment on A handy reference 8 months ago:
I would in principle agree with you, however not about English, mainly because it is now a language of international discourse of any kind, and it thus no longer belongs to the local speakers.
It now has a role Latin had until just a few centuries ago, and extrapolating a bit into the future from that example, will remain quite stable while your dialect, American, Australian, Indian, Jamaican, will change until it becomes another language entirely, no longer mutually intelligible with the other dialects.
If you want to participate in the international dialog however, you will have to learn International, which is now English including the differentiation of the theiy’res, even if your native language is English. Your grand-grandchildren may have to learn English like an Italian in 1800 had to learn Latin if he wanted to join the international discourse.
It’s super interesting to watch this process unfold right now!
- Comment on German train drivers' union votes for 'unlimited' strikes 11 months ago:
Not 100% sure if you’ve understood, they should indeed do that, and it’s part of the “system” here. They should however also do that in solidarity with their less-exposed, more vulnerable coworkers, and not have a multitude of unions.
- Comment on German train drivers' union votes for 'unlimited' strikes 11 months ago:
What annoys me is that there are two unions that would strike in turn and grind everything to a halt, the drivers and the service personnels union.
