Why isn't anyone talking about the terrible conditions of the frozen Berlin streets as an accessibility issue? Right now people with mobility issues/pregnant people/blind people etc *cannot* move safely through the city. Routes for cars are meanwhile in perfect condition. It's discrimination.

There's a German audio ad for Bumble at the moment where the female protagonist is super jazzed that the guy she matches with says he wants to surprise her for their first date, then takes her out for A COFFEE. Even fictional ads for the actual dating app can't deny that the bar is on the floor

life hack: if you are annoyed by house plant flies and how they relentlessly want to be in your face, try interpreting their clinginess as the kind of tender unconditional affection that your inner child has been yearning for all this time
