Of course, Trump won't give up on his $1.8bn fund for Jan 6 rioters (ultimately, we suspect, for himself). He's never accepted a no, certainly no democratic decision (Jan 6 alone is evidence enough). He'll rename it & try again, with less publicity, more lying, better arm-twisting. Jon Karl for ABC:
A great video by Frankfurt police [๐ฌ๐ง subtitles mine]. Like public health, public safety is public service & precaution. This is money & mind well spent on prevention, & the ensuing absence of crime or infection doesn't mean there wasn't a threat, but that we were smarter. #GoodMorning, everyone
2 In the last 2 nights, the protests have escalated into violence against protesters & against media reporting from the site. Before all this happened, on May 17, I pulled a reel from Insta that shows one small example of the ways ICE bullies there, & how volunteers help. The cruelty is the point.
Today's random #German word of the day is... die Kichererbse. ๐ข [click on picture] And although 'kichern' does mean 'to chuckle', sadly the explanation is simpler: The name comes from the Latin word for 'pea': 'cicer'. So it's a 'pea pea'. Which obviously makes much more sense. ๐ #LearnALanguage
๐งต Albert Speer was Hitlerโs architect, then Minister of Armaments & War Production bc of his organisational skills (& loyalty, no doubt). He's the only leading Nazi who even came close to admitting responsibility, more so over time. His Nuremberg defence was tempered to avoid the death penalty.
"Just google it!" we say & wonder why people still won't see they're objectively wrong. It's unlikely whole movements like MAGA are stupid. The reason is their allegiance. They trust only their own sources/bias. They 'check' w/ Fox News or other MAGA & never come across truth. #GoodMorning, everyone
Of course, family rooms in public places cost money to install & maintenance. The question is: How do we live? We get to say. We are the societies we live in. Do we want dirty little toilet rooms with a counter or this? As humans, we need a liveable world. Let's create it. #GoodMorning, everyone
You know what's annoying about things like that? Not the installation. Mistakes happen. But that countless people will now walk past this for years if not decades and nobody will say or do anything about it because it's someone else's problem and their job/responsibility to do something about it.
Ability or fluke? Not all that's successful is an achievement. It might be a happy coincidence. Or cheating, fake, team effort. We look at successful people as though their success is all down to them & their abilities, but success often needs help from others or a bit of luck #GoodMorning, everyone
