Every time that I visit that bloody contraption of a website, I'm baffled at how utterly #annoying and #useless fucking #Facebook is. How could this garbage ever become so big? Get out of Zuck's cage, folks! #DeleteFacebook

The #Taiwan Strait is part of #internationalwaters and certainly NOT part of #China's territory - «Chinese waters» my ass. #Beijing should skip the bullshit - and Western states should intensify their #FONOP activity to drive the message home to Xi Jinping: Respect international treaties such as #UNCLOS. Oh, by the way: #TaiwanisNOTChina https://www.reuters.com/article/us-taiwan-france-warship-china/china-says-french-ship-entered-chinese-waters-illegally-idUSKCN1S10Q7?feedType=RSS&feedName=worldNews

Gestern Abend auf dem Weg in die Kneipe um ein Haar von einem Offroader, Modell Mercedes GLS mit FL-Nummernschildern, abgeräumt worden. Der Fahrer, Typus jungdynamisch im Anzug, war zu sehr von seinem Smartphone abgelenkt, um meinen Rechtsvortritt zu erkennen. Bin leider nur ausfällig und nicht handgreiflich geworden. Unfassbar, was für hirntote Deppen hinters Steuer dürfen. #Verkehr

Great to see that the Kremlin chose not to congratulate #Zelenskiy after the presidential election and that the newly elected president of #Ukraine has called for stricter sanctions against #Russia.

Statt die Regulationen für Generika zu lockern, verteuert das Bundesamt für #Gesundheit die Preise von #Medikamente|n um ein Vielfaches. Was sind das nur für Dilettanten? Die Gesundheitskosten müssen zwingend sinken, nicht weiter steigen! #Schweiz https://www.tagesanzeiger.ch/wirtschaft/standard486-statt-97-franken-bundesamt-verteuert-medikamente/story/22804419

Who is the bigger loonie: #Trump or #Duterte? Two buckets of the same shit if you ask me. Taken from the lowest lows of a sewer. And nope: #insanity is not an asset with world leaders. Never was, never will be.

It's mighty windy this afternoon in Switzerland - the end of a phase of stable and sunny weather, I'm afraid. That's all part of the month of April, however. #weather #Winterthur

Oh, so some workers who set up the scaffolding on the roof of #NotreDame smoked cigarettes up there despite strictest rules forbidding exactly this to prevent #fire? Great example of ignoring rules and the resulting damage indeed.

Ein #LKW "verliert" im #Gotthard|tunnel ein Rad, welches darauf ein Auto trifft und dessen Lenker tötet. Prompt fordern einige Schlaumeier nicht etwa strengere Kontrollen von Gammel-Lastern, sondern eine zweite Tunnelröhre. #Verkehr #Sicherheit https://www.srf.ch/news/schweiz/gesperrt-bis-14-uhr-geloestes-rad-verursacht-toedlichen-unfall-im-gotthard-tunnel

Soeben die erste #Zecke des Jahres entfernt - das Mistvieh hatte sich in der Kniekehle festgebohrt. Watte mit Sprit getränkt, Zecke beduselt und anschliessend mit flacher Pinzette sauber abgenommen. Nun die Bissstelle im Auge behalten - mit Borreliose ist nicht zu scherzen.

Next weekend, the #UCI #DHI worldcup 2019 will start with the race in #Maribor. As a warm-up, the first race of the #iXSEuropeanDHCup was held in Maribor last weekend, and Ralf Schupp packed all the action into this nice 5min video. #MTB #cycling https://youtu.be/VMdhJouiMt4

Es gibt keinen Plural von #Einzelfall - das verbietet schlicht die Logik. Im Fall der beelendenden #Faschisten-Bagage namens #FPOe lautet der Befund angesichts vieler *Einzelfälle*: strukturelles Problem, braune Scheisse als Teil der DNA dieser Deutschnationalen, Rassisten und Burschenschafter. Und sowas sitzt in der Regierung von #Oesterarm, es ist #zumKotzen. https://derstandard.at/2000101921138/Weiterer-Einzelfall-FPOe-Funktionaer-mit-Nazi-Postings

I thought it was up to the #UnitedNations to impose worldwide #sanctions on a state and regime and not up to the #UnitedStates. Utterly laughable to think that they could tell #China where to buy its #oil. By giving #Iran's remaining buyers more leverage, the orange imbecile hurts the US economy and its competitiveness. But that kind of thinking is way too complex for the simpleton in chief.

Yup, I need to get back to #Japan. Only ever been there for 8.5 days in 2015 - two days in Osaka, one day in Kyoto, five days in Tokyo. It's been too long ago, and the stay was way too short. #travel #FarEast

Sorry to state the obvious, but with his most recent attack on critical #media as #enemiesofthepeople and his phantasizing of the #NYTimes going to its knees to beg for pardon, the orange imbecile just confirms that #Krugman is painfully right: This #POTUS is as #unamerican as it gets, an overt attack on all values that America once stood for. https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/440168-trump-rips-krugman-new-york-times-after-columnist-writes-gop-no

Apart from his blatant attempts to escalate the tensions in the #MiddleEast, the orange imbecile in chief still finds plenty of time to #angertweet about TV shows that still refuse to brownnose him. The swamplord and his #executivetime.

Shame on #Myanmar. #freedom for #KyawSoeOo and #WaLone. Reporting on #warcrimes is not a crime itself. Attacks on #mediafreedom are not acceptable. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/23/world/asia/reuters-journalists-myanmar-supreme-court.html

Warum schaffen es Seeräuber nicht, genau im Kreis zu segeln?
Na, da sie Piraten (Pi raten)!

Welche Fische schwimmen am exaktesten im Kreis?
Natürlich die Piranhas!

#Humor für #Zahlennerds...

#Zelenskiy might have won the presidency in a landslide, but he has no party to back him in #Ukraine's parliament. Calling for #snapelections this summer does not seem like a smart move since regular elections are scheduled for fall anyway. Any additional time to build up a party that supports him should be welcome.

If the #SriLanka bombings were a #retaliation for the #Christchurch massacre that again was a retaliation for jihadist attacks on Christians, the lesson certainly has to be: #bigotry regarding #religion leads to #tragedy and an eye for an eye leaves the world blind.
