Do you believe in #Doppelgänger⁣s? The idea that almost every person has one or more persons who look almost identical? I am sceptical. I think, some people are extremely similar, but also that most faces are pretty unique. I just read the excellent novel […] [Original post on berlin.social]

Hey Followers! How much would you be willing to pay for a Mina-Premium subscription?

Ich finde es ja immer so lustig, wenn Menschen in der Politik über "Bürokratieabbau" fabulieren. Wenn man sieht, wie viele Arbeitsgruppen die kommende Koalition einrichten will, kann man schon ahnen, was davon Wirklichkeit werden wird. Speziell für Konservative heißt Bürokratieabbau nicht […]

[image of meat] In Germany, a classical dish is bread with raw minced pork meat on top. 😋 I know, our Western and Southern neighbours find the idea of eating uncooked pork meat rather disgusting. But what about the North and East? #Poland #Czechia #Denmark #Sweden #Mett #Hackepeter #Food

As the final season of the #TV series The #Handmaid's Tale is being released, I just watched seasons 4 & 5 which I didn't know. TBH: They were pretty disappointing. Still visually appealing and well acted, and yet: You can't compensate poor #writing with great […] [Original post on berlin.social]

Siempre me resulta fascinante como algunas palabras, en sí conocidas pero poco usadas, de pronto se apoderan del discurso público. Actualmente es "turbio". No sé si en España, pero en YouTube latino está realmente omnipresente. En realidad, me gusta. Muy adecuada para muchas ocasiones, solo la […]
