Our dog sleeps in the bed. She’s tiny, though. Plus she’s fluffy and acts as hot water bottle during cold nights.

Aka Kraut country

You put weed in it and after activation it’s a mobile hotboxing device.

It’s not in the UK and I don’t want to share my location online.

There’s a great computer museum close to where I live. You can use every piece of tech and every month they host game nights with all PCs running old classics and they open another room full of original arcade machines you can play with. Oh, did I mention there’s also a bar with reasonable prices for all drinks? I love that place.

Look, behind you! A three-headed monkey!

Besonders lustig ist es, den Endboss einfach per Schriftrolle oder Rune zu schrumpfen. Seine Schritte sind aber immer noch so laut wie vorher. XD

Ein Schlag reicht dann aus, um ihn platt zu machen. ^^

Merz says a lot of rubbish.

I’d accept ‘your majesty’

House and CJ. While House and I knock back a few drinks, CJ would clip any possible plane highjacker.

Chekov: Excuse me, sir! Can you direct us to the naval base in Alameda? It’s where they keep the nuclear wessels.

pauses, looks at Uhura, and tries again

Chekov: Nuclear wessels.

It’s not that bad yet, but clearly getting worse with each year passing since Brexit. Btw: I added some more information in my first reply. For context: I’m a European citisen.

Short answer: Yes

Every time I’m in GB it freaks me out. I tend to wear hats and scarfs outdoors and I’m only using the Internet with a VPN connection.

I frequently travel to Ireland and since I don’t fly, my usual route includes a ferry from France to England and there I’m taking a bus to Wales for the final ferry to Dublin. Last time I went, I first went to the French border checkpoint. The lad takes one quick look at my passport, said “Welcome to France!” and sent me on my merry way to the British border checkpoint. The people there checked my passport for 20 minutes (it was a brand new one with new security features) and after finally deciding it was probably a real passport asked me what my business in England was. I swiftly replied “Getting on the first bus out of England to Ireland”.

Kudos! My Irish is limited to a few everyday phrases and random words. Having spent most of my time in Belfast and Dublin, I didn’t need it anyway. ^^

As if any Londoner knew how to pronounce even one word in Irish…

Please ban them.

This is very common in Belfast. More strangers struck up a convo with me there than in all my years in north Germany.

A decaffeinated Captain Janeway. I’m done for.

That information is outdated. Anyone can change name and gender at their local registry office. You need to apply for it there, wait three months and then you can complete the paperwork for the change you want (female / male / diverse). You can also just delete the gender option for all your documents altogether.

This change in law was introduced in late 2024 (Selbstbestimmungsgesetz).

Some people hate the names their parents gave them. So did I and I legally changed it as soon as I could.
