Der männliche Nachfolger der Queen sollte auch "Queen" genannt werden. Der Begriff hat sich eingebürgert und Männer sind mitgemeint. #QueenElizabeth

Is the German public aware that while @elonmusk's Tesla factory in Germany needed an ambulance almost every day last year and workers lost limbs and suffered burns in work accidents, all he's doing is praising a far far right party and speaking out against humanitarian afforts?

"I find it hard to watch Hitchcock movies. I find them slow, tedious, and yet they’re great exercises. I enjoy watching them from an investigative point of view. But I never get involved with a Hitchcock character; they never bring a tear to my eye." ---George A. Romero

Just underscoring how WGA negotiators told the studios the union wouldn’t go back to work until SAG also has a deal, because if the last five months proved anything it’s in together, win together #WGAstrong

The Chief of the Armed Forces of Norway, General Eirik Kristoffersen, has announced that Russia has withdrawn 80% of its troops from the Norwegian border following a full-scale invasion, despite continually talking about the NATO threat. "And Putin knows very well that NATO is not a threat to Russia—neither Norway, nor Sweden, nor Finland, nor Poland pose any threat to Russia. If he thought otherwise, he couldn't have transferred all his forces to Ukraine," he explained. "There may be 20% or less (Russian) forces left on our border with Russia compared to what there was before February 24, 2022. He took this risk because he knows that NATO poses no threat to anyone, and he is busy in Ukraine," Kristoffersen added. The Norwegian general reminded that Norway, as a NATO member, is the only country that has not fought with Russia in the modern period of history.

Naja, keine tolle Aktion, aber bevor jetzt alle wieder durchdrehen: Gibt's eigentlich Infos was für eine Farbe bei der Aktion verwendet wurde? Wenns wieder welche ist, die ohne Probleme wieder zu entfernen ist, ist's nicht der Rede wert. #LetzteGeneration
