Die Kreativität, die deutsche Ausländerbehörden an den Tag legen, um Menschen das Leben zur Hölle machen, kennt wirklich keine Grenzen.

You move your queen,
I roll the dice,
Count four steps,
And free the mice,
You buy hotels,
And spin the wheel,
I shuffle cards,
And make the deal,
Snakes and ladders,
Cards the same,
You were in,
A different game.

Wir haben einen dermaßen großen Reformstau, dass die letzte Aufführung des letzten Programmes von Volker Pispers immer noch tagesaktuell ist.

A “Grandiloquent Word of the Day” meme featuring word “Autocephalous” with pronunciation [aw-toh-SEF-uh-lus] and the definition: “Independent of external and especially patriarchal authority.” Beneath it appears the example sentence: “Wearied by unsolicited advice and by being spoken over by the likes of men named Chad, the autocephalous Calphurnia adopted their own tactic in kind, until at last their bruised egos conceded defeat and lapsed into submissive quietude.” To the right is a Victorian-style black-and-white illustration of a woman in a long dress and hat standing on a hillside, holding binoculars and looking toward distant mountains.

Love is in the air at Edinburgh zoo. Pebbling marks the start of the breeding season for Gentoo penguins.

Kids at Edinburgh Children's Hospital Charity painted pebbles for the penguins to choose from and present to their mates.

A group of land dinos are in the water, some with their heads above water.

Here's a fun question: could LAND DINOSAURS SWIM?

Like, did they need floaties or a kick-board? Were they allowed in the deep end of the pool?

And the answer is: sort of, for some dinos. In fact, we may have EVIDENCE that land dinos swam across deep water.

A break in civility contaminates the OR just as much as a break in sterility.
In a multicentre RCT using a sim, anaesthesia residents exposed to rudeness performed worse across all domains. Passing rates dropped from 91% to 64%. (Katz 2019)

Maybe you know the story of Dr. Barry Marshall, who intentionally infected himself with Helicobacter pylori, developed gastritis, peptic ulcers & bad breath.

He proved that ulcers are caused by bacteria in 1984, received a Nobel Prize (with Warren) in 2005.

But there's a much deeper history!

"Cypress Blue" is an impressionist oil painting of the iconic Monterey cypress trees that grow near Carmel-by-the-Sea. Thick brushstrokes mimic the swirling, moving waters below, peeking out between the abstract branches of the cypress trees. This petite work arrives framed in a custom-made, wide gold frame.

Talking Down
 
After having listened to
Richard for twenty-five minutes,
Stifling her yawns as he
Enlightened
Her on the origins
Of the term ‘mansplaining’,
Lisa was finally able to get a word in
Edgeways.

Textverdunkelung. Eine mit gelbem und orangen Textmarker übermalte Buchseite. Die meisten Wörter sind durch ein Zackenmuster mit schwarzem Fineliner unleserlich. Die freigebliebenen Wörter ergeben die Sätze: „Der Morgen findet mich verwirrt. All meine Kraft hängt bis zur äußersten Schräglage in einem Rhythmus aus Plänen.“
