The parliament has 14 days to try and get a different (or the same) person elected with the total majority (>50% of votes). If they can not get a person elected with more than 50% of the votes during those 2 weeks they then can elect a person with a relative majority. Since Merz was only short a couple votes they will probably still elect him and this was just a demonstration of power from the SPD since they barely have the 50% in the parliament if both parties combine their votes.

I can’t get over the fact the the lines are not lined up in the middle.

Thank you

I don’t know what you mean by that.

I think Robin always thought of Demetrius as that quirky guy who was a little different and therefore kind of interesting. What she didn’t realise is that he was on the spectrum all along and would not be ‘fixed’ by just being with her and ‘acting normal’.

The liquid ones are giving me tiny lava lamp vibes. I would love to see then lit by an led or something. But I think they would look awesome as necklaces as well.

I think they are referring to Nazi Germany in and before WW2.

I got a jump for my 18th birthday and was really looking forward to it. It was a jump from a crane over a lake and you would dip your head in the water at the lowest point. The jump itself was ok but nothing I’d want to repeat in itself but once I reached the lowest point and the rebound hit me, my head felt like it was about to explode. I felt horrible for the next few hours plus my hair was wet from the dip. Thanks, just no thanks.

I agree with you and don’t feel that I’d support one of the big parties enough to cast my vote for them in a situation where it’s pest vs cholera. But with the right being so clearly against humanity and democratic values I think the time has come to choose either pest or cholera over evil itself. Usually I voted for a small party that falls under the 5% but this time I won’t, just because I’d rather cast my vote for a party that clearly positions themselves against the right and I can agree with in some ways than to not give it at all or cast it without any impact in the actual government.

In germany and all of europe i have been to there are no cart wranglers because everyone just put their cart back in it’s place. Before covid all carts had a little lock and chain that connects to the back of the next cart and you can unlock it with a coin. During covid many stores got rid of them and everybody is still putting their carts away. When I worked at a grocery store and there was no line I used my time to talk to my coworkers, stock the shelves or enjoy the quiet for a few minutes…

I’m unsure if they count as bugs but I got stung in the head by a wasp yesterday while it was 5°C and -2°C the night before. They can not be bothered.
