Just a nomad from Twitter (long time ago) and Instagram looking for the best place, always trying to restore what I have lost and also be in the center of the stream of time like I could not before social media.

Looks like they chickened out and prefer to serve free tacos instead. (Sorry, chickens and lambs, I am aware you are just suppressed, like most)

I finally understand why people prefer smartphones to laptops these days-much easier to take along to(and even continue to use on)toilets. Restrooms,I mean. (Then again: now that I have to take a dehydrating heart/lung med on top of my caffeine-addiction, my poor old eyes REALLY do need big screens)

I assume, however, that when you write angry, you edit carefully before you publish. (Not to edit out the anger, but to monitor and control what, or whom, exactly you are slashing)

As I came across this issue and your account via reposts yesterday, and as yesterday was my birthday, too: I just want to wish you a belated happy birthday and hope you had a great day yesterday. And also hope very much the added publicity will help the cause and get these young women out of prison

Very good YT clips of Omar Rudberg's first open air summer concert this year: (had considered going, like last year, when I treated myself to a great one in Stockholm - but the view would not have been good from where I would have stood - so this is the better option) youtu.be/tZ0hJCKyUtk?...

My first stop for anyone/anything I feel I should know more about usually is Wikipedia. So much easier than finding information in the times before the internet (and, no, I absolutely do not need any bot's help). Just hope Wikipedia won't be cancelled.... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garrett...

Have you seen her YT posts of complete songs?

Good thing it's paintings, so you do not need language to understand. Anything specific in German you want to understand? Maybe I can help.

Missed that one when it came out, because I lived without a TV for decades and only discovered social media later - so thanks for diggin it out and showing me. This much more humble one made in a park in Stockholm in 2018 for me has a similar simply fun attitude: youtu.be/cGEC2JTkZcg?...

Found him ! (In case you or anybody who reads this should be interested)

...him and his family to pay the fee to be allowed to leave for Egypt, where he lives and blogs now, mostly nostalgic memories of when life was difficult but still possible in his beloved Gaza - and of his struggle to survive mentally. Am sad I have lost track of him.

Have never heard of the 'Baghdad blogger', but a short time ago, US standup-comedian Hasan Minhaj boosted a teenage blogger from Gaza on IG. I do not remember his name momentarily, and can't retrieve it from IG as I was suspended - but being globally known helped him to gain enough donations for...

I'm not in the science community, but interested in many things. When I was young, I traveled for real whenever I had the chance, but now added 'hybrid' traveling via the internet and social media is a good second choice for whenever I can't for many reasons; plus money & ecology aspects.

I only found/discovered Twitter in 2012, so thanks for the prehistory. (I had fallen in love with movies/series finally readily available in the original languages, plus extras, on DVDs, and wanted to get closer to where they came from).

Now I see houses licking computer screens. Hoping for princes. Or palaces ?

Have a great evening ! Was very happy when I found James Taylor was very much alive & posting on IG a few years ago. Loved 'You've got a Friend' when I was a teenager - but was disappointed and felt a bit duped when I found the song was not BY but FOR him. (Thus never for me by him)(illusions.....)

Sadly, that is a global trend aiming at a scapegoat instead of the real problems. I am German but became really interested in Sweden after stumbling into the Swedish Netflix series YOUNG ROYALS and falling in love. Exploring from there, I was astounded how immigrants have enhanced Swedish culture.

Before I was suspended from IG, I was following an account called Sweden se (if I remember correctly-with a dot, but I removed it as it creates a link to somewhere else) by the Swedish government which I really liked, posting all kinds of nice things about Sweden and interacting a lot with comments.

I'm landlocked here, but last year around this time I visited Stockholm (the Swedish one) which has hundreds of ferries and channels and felt similar - loved it. (Just very hot, as the sun was stinging down much more vertical that far north).

From what I've heard, there was a genocide of 'white' people in South Africa once, but it was English settlers killing off Dutch settlers. (Similar to French, English and Spanish settlers fighting each other in North America)

Weaselfree (as I have mentioned, yours would be welcome, though) weaseling around my kitchen done. Truly enjoyed it. In case your weasels, you, or anybody else should be searching for a playlist to dance to, here is one of my suggestions: open.spotify.com/playlist/0L4...
