Just put him on the floor every time he does it, rather than kicking him out of the room. He'll get the message eventually. Mine did.

Me too, and I really regret it.

No, the US will not be on the side of Europe.

The US will be bankrolling Russia. Russia is weak and poor. The only reason they're still in Ukraine is China. And once they've conquered that, the US will happily help them invade the rest of Europe.

European motorways are a nightmare. It might not look that far on the map, but I'd rather drive from Boston to Brooklin ME on the i95 than from Karlsruhe to Freiburg on the A5.

Not in Baden-Württemberg. You'd have to go to France.

The top right picture needs "HH" added to it. It's what people use on license plates. Used to be banned in Germany, but I saw one yesterday so I think My Little Nazi has unbanned it.

Fun fact: Shell patented tons of alternatives to fossil fuel and then shelved them.

Germany. Even the "big" supermarkets are tiny and they're all German owned.

We had a blackbird that lost both its parents. It started begging from the sparrows instead and they happily fed her. She's an adult now, she was with the flock of sparrows until she found a husband.

I've been on YouTube from pretty much the start and have never seen a Rewind. Do only Americans get them?

She thinks my neighbour's pond may have fish or frogs in it. It does not. Returning every day does not change the situation, Janice.

Disclaimer: Janice may be a dude. We'll have to wait until she's changed into her adult feathers.A juvenile blue heron on a messy lawn with a garden hose behind it.

Kudos to the parentals for chasing the kites away every single day.

That's what the post-menopausal chief inspector in the Italian TV series I'm watching calls her upper arms 😆.

They've stopped sponsoring SF Pride, even though their "we're so inclusive" bits on their website are still up.

They own a LOT of brands, so check out the Wiki and avoid them like the plague.
