Guys like this don’t realize that they are the freak

I am installing a new Sat Nav app, as my new truck does not have one built in. I am not sure if I should trust it tho, last time I checked Monaco was not British Islands. And neither was San Marino on Iberian Peninsula.

As my regular Polish language podcast is on summer holidays, I am reuploading my old English language podcast You Are Not So Great, Britain. In this podcast my friend Elisa and I tackle popular myths about how great Britain is. Today's chapter discusses British housing market:

Home, sweet home. Tiny, mouldy home...

I am seeing more and more posts in places like Reddit from British people wanting to move to Poland and struggling to get a job. Oh, how the tables have turned. But I didn't want to talk about it but about why I don't predict many of them to be too succesfull. Why? Here is a thread for you:

I like Krzysztof Kieślowski big movies, they are masterpieces. But I also like this early documentary from him, it's a little 15 minute gem: youtu.be/ClUBYsA3vws?... #movie

...or you can decide NOT to feed the AI company with your family private data, and your kids interests, so it cannot sell it to the advertisers, and instead every morning when you drive them to school just, I dunno, TALK TO THEM?

I just saw some Polish Russian shill on Facebook, ranting that if Ukraine won't stop attacking Russian refineries and warehouses, Russia will react, so they better stop. I wonder what he thinks Russia is going to do? Invade Ukraine? Bomb residential areas of Kiyv or some maternity hospital again?

I have been away for few weeks. My cat seems to be surprised to see me home :D

I've been on the road all over Europe for more than 6 months now and I can honestly say Polish roadside services are in the top three, along with facilities on the paid French motorways and Finland I think.

British HGV drivers: look and weep. This is how motorway parking (a smaller one, with no garage or restaurants) should look like: The showers are clean, water is hotz and they are free to use. Greetings from Poland :)

Where is @countbinface.bsky.social when we need them? This towel dispenser is not in a sensible location at all, every time someone wants to wash their hands it dispenses a towel endlessly as they have to stand next to a sensor!

According to my friend who lives on the outskirts of Lublin, Poland, two objects hit the ground in Poland this morning: one near Turobin, second near Bychawa. They had an air raid alarm at 3:50 am

There was also an air raid alarm in Lublin in early hours.

I am prepared to say now that Russia DID fire a missile at Poland. This is near Targowisko village, in Zakrzew community, south of Lublin, in eastern Poland. Residents heard the explosion, houses and windows shook and a big crater is apparently being guarded. #RussiaIsATerroristState

Finally! France has issued a ministerial order to deport Xenia Fedorova, former head of EU-sanctioned RT France. She was allowed to spread Kremlin propaganda for far too long. While legal appeals mean this will take time, France is finally moving in the right direction

What's your bet? Will US be keen to deport a criminal who came to the US illegally (he allegedly got a fake diplomatic hungarian passport from Orban) and claims to be a refugee? Or it only applies to those brown ones? www.reuters.com/world/poland...

What never stops to amuse me is people - mostly Americans, of course, but not only - who say that limiting car access to city centres will stop people coming there.
