The government doesn't want you to know that but actually the Queen didn't die, she just decided it's finally time to retire and moved where she figured no one would look for her. After the unpaid intern accidentally leaked the information - hence the rooms name on the map - that fact is still denied, which just makes it more suspicious.
That's not pasta though but pastry dough. Or am I missing something here?
It's totally a thing! I never believed in it until I started a huge blanket in celebration of our anniversary but never got to finish it.
Haven't heard of it outside of the internet tbh. Also, I feel like it's more a running gag than an actual belief. We can probably all agree that a breakup happening every 100 sweaters or so is not exactly a curse.
Chiming in for clarification: Literally it's "bell game" but the word's meaning is more like "bells that play" or "bells to play with".
If there was it's gotta be over by now, right?
The flight itself is 1.5 h as well, but I would need 2 additional hours by train to actually get to my destination. So idk maybe 6 hrs in total? I have no idea if that's realistic though, have never seen an airport from the inside.
As I'm living in the north of Germany I could probably easily go to Denmark and Sweden, haven't tried that yet though. Been to Prague by train once, which was okay, as there was a direct connection by EC.
Actually I'm planning to go to Austria this summer, so I've recently looked it up. Plane tickets are more then twice as expensive compared to train for my route. The train takes 11-12 hours (depending on connection) though, which is absolute max for me. So yeah, wouldn't go further than that. (Still looked up a connection to Croatia, that would've been an absolute pain in the a** by train...)
I can see things like "beneficial for sleep" or "reduce upset stomach", but that's about it. "Treating allergies", well good luck with that. Also black tea for anxiety?
Das letzte Mal, dass ich jemand (anderes als mich) "Brudi" sagen hörte, war sicherlich 2014. Würde mich aber freuen, wenn es wieder käme. Ich mag das Wort.
Here in Germany it was introduced last year (I think). Heard it still causes trouble on the organization side, but as a patient it works great.
Ignore the left side of the oval, then you get a lower case p with a looong stroke down and a teeny tiny )-shape.
I hear you, the biggest needles I can handle comfortably are probably 10 mm. But at least when using needles this large garments knit up in no time. So your struggles will be over soon!
Experience with Lammy Soft Sensation (or similar animalless mohair alternatives)?
So I want to knit up an all-over lace top, which is originally made with two strands of Lang Yarns Mohair Luxe. I've been searching for non-animal alternatives for quite a while now. My best bet might be Lammy Soft Sensation, but as it's rather cheap I'm afraid it might also look and feel cheap. Does anyone have experience with it? The reviews I can find online are rather scarce.
Also been looking into Alize Cotton Gold and Hobbii Amigo. They're not exactly mohair-y but might provide a little fluff and, more importantly, softness.
What do you think? Are there better options? TIA!
Kann mich anschließen. War letztes Jahr im Erzgebirge zum Wandern, war wirklich schön. Für ein paar Tage Landschaft gucken sehr zu empfehlen.
TIL I'm actually knitting Russian? Didn't know there was a distinction between regular continental and my tight way. But knowing that might help varying tension for different projects.
In meiner Altersgruppe habe ich letztens auch ein "Die Grünen haben sich echt unwählbar gemacht!", gehört. Eine Begründung gab es nicht, nur Rumgedruckse gefolgt von Gezeter. Hab das Gefühl, dass eine hohe Emotionalität im politischen Diskurs mehr und mehr zum Problem wird.
Proveg-Ranking der Markengastronomie
ProVeg vergleicht jährlich das vegane Angebot von großen Restaurantketten. Im vergangenen Jahr belegte Hans im Glück den Spitzenplatz. Doch nun gibt es eine neue Nummer eins.
Grade diesen Artikel gefunden, in dem das Proveg-Ranking zu veganen Angeboten in Restaurant-/Fastfoodketten behandelt wird. Bei L'Osteria und Cotidiano esse ich gerne, der Rest ist nicht so mein Fall oder schlichtweg nicht vorhanden. Wie schaut's bei euch aus?
Hat den schonmal jemand erfolgreich probiert?
Hab diesen Pudding letztens im Supermarkt gesehen und wollte ihn gestern Abend zum Nachtisch probieren. Mit der No Muuh Milch von Rewe wurde aber mehr eine etwas dickflüssige Karamellsuppe draus. Hat jemand andere Erfahrungen gemacht?
"Neues" Design oder hat der Praktikant das falsche Druckformat ausgewählt?
Grade beim Einkaufen entdeckt: Klassische Oatly Barista steht neben Oatly Barista, auf der das Etikett nur in halber Größe aufgedruckt ist.
Made these miniature socks two years ago as a Christmas present
They're really just socks for adults but in oh so tiny. The little man's favorite color was green at the time and he still always took off his socks off everwhere. But not these babies! They were his favorite as long as they fit. They're made from acrylic iirc.
The postdrome is real
After going through hell the last 7 days I finally feel better! Yay! No more excruciating pain for at least a couple of days!
But one of the worst parts has only just begun. Worse not because I feel any more shitty than during the pain, but because no one who hasn't experienced it first hand understands it.
Everyone's like "Oh you're not in pain anymore? Then you can go back to work, right?" And some part of me, the blissfully ignorant past-me probably, thinks the same. It blames me for being lazy and work-shy.
But I can't go back just yet. I'm physically not able to. I'm glad I even got out of bed today, not letting the depression and anxiety devour me. I may be not in pain anymore, but I don't feel any less shitty. Not yet.
I need some rest.
Which cgrp pen are you using and why did you settle for this specific one?
Hey guys, we're defederated! Woohoo! I don't know if posts made during this episode gate posted, so I post again:
Yesterday my neurologist and I agreed on trying cgrp injections to tackle my chronic migraine. Now I need to decide which one to try. But looking at the facts and numbers the differences are marginal. So I'm looking for some first hand experiences! TIA!

ich schätze, mein neues Stricktop wird nochmal neu gestartet
Mir fehlen noch 5 cm. 5 cm, dann wäre das Dekolleté ausreichend bedeckt und es wäre fertig. Aber nein, 5 cm vor Ende geht mir das Garn aus. Ich hab's noch versucht zu retten mit einem anderen Garn (das helle ganz oben), aber leider passt es doch nicht so, wie ich es mir erhofft hatte. Da bleibt nur: aufribbeln und neu starten 🤡
Just lost my latest round of yarn chicken
Wanted to knit a summer stop with some spare yarn. It's still missing some fabric at the decollete and I've just run out of yarn. Tried to substitute with a different yarn (the light one at the very top) but it's not quite working. Guess it's frogging time! 🐸
Vent: Unable to get a sick note because of migraine
Hey beautiful people, need to vent a bit. Figured you might understand + we need a bit activity. (Just hope it's not entirely dead.)
I'm currently at hour 28 of my most recent attack. As a chronic sufferer I'm in pain more or less all the time, so I'm calling the really severe ones "attacks". So it's been 28 hours and the triptanes aren't working anymore. I'm so exhausted and tired by now and my head's not working properly. Migraine makes me stupid. I didn't even manage to call in sick today. I'm just lying around doing literally nothing, focused on not dying.
Now the major problem is I need to go to a doc to get a sick note, otherwise my hours for yesterday and today are lost and I'd need to work overtime next week. But how am I supposed to physically get there? I'm inable to get myself a freaking glass of water, but driving through the whole city and then sitting in a crowded room for hours full of sick people coughing and talking while the light flickers, only to get "headache? Oh that sucks. You better stay home" by the doc is fine? Does that even follow any logic?
So yeah I guess I'm just taking the hours. Even though I lost my last job because of this specific reason. Migraine sucks.
Thanks for coming to my vent or something and have a great day for me!
Crunchwraps with tvp, veggies and a vegan cheese dip
Base recipe by Bianca Zapatka, I adapted it slightly: https://biancazapatka.com/en/vegan-crunchwrap-supreme/
Eizellenspende ist in Deutschland illegal
Inhaltswarnung: Es geht um Unfruchtbarkeit, Eizellenspende (offensichtlich) und Adoption. Ich weiß nicht, ob dieser Text Leuten zu nahe gehen kann, aber da ich persönlich (noch) nicht betroffen bin, bin ich da lieber vorsichtig.
Hallo Freunde, ich habe grade, paradoxer Weise durch den Tatort, gelernt, dass Eizellenspende in Deutschland illegal ist?
Das ganze wird dadurch begründet, dass Kinder dann "zwei" Mütter hätten, die Genetische und die Gebärende. Diese Einschätzung wurde schon lange widerlegt und zwischendurch hat der Europäische Gerichtshof für Menschenrechte geurteilt, dass das ganze eine Ungleichbehandlung der Geschlechter darstellt.
Denn Samenspende ist erlaubt. Hier gibt es scheinbar keinen Konflikt a la "wer ist mein Vater". Denn Vaterschaft ist ja scheinbar was ganz anderes. Leider hat der EGMR dieses Urteil revidiert, denn das Ganze stellt scheinbar keine Hürde in der Familienplanung dar. Dabei ist ja die ursprüngliche Begründung der zwei Mütter bei der Alternative Adoption viel offensichtlicher und für das Kind präsenter. Was die ganze Argumentation ja eigentlich hinfällig macht.
Ich kriege das Gefühl, dass männliche Unfruchtbarkeit hier die Normalität ist. Samenspende ist halt wirklich kein Problem in Deutschland. Damit kann der Vater dann "echte" Vaterschaft erfahren, ohne dafür tatsächlich in der Lage zu sein. Aber weibliche Unfruchtbarkeit wird heruntergespielt und zu einem Mysterium degradiert. Warum darf ich nicht "echte" Mutter sein, mit Schwangerschaft und allem drum und dran, wenn es sich herausstellen sollte, dass ich unfruchtbar bin? Warum messem wir hier mit zweierlei Maß? Klar kann mit Adoption eine richtige Mutter sein, aber warum so vielen Frauen diese so persönliche Entscheidung nehmen, wenn es doch möglich ist?
