A lot of them look like Oompa Loompas with their fake spray tan, just like the Orange Man across the big lake. Add fake eyelashes and fake nails, bam, that’s exactly what OP seems to be talking about. Oddly enough, this applies to Ireland as well.
That’s what I love about Irish summers. 3 weeks tops, then back to my beloved shite weather. I am not designed to deal with the 10-14 weeks of boiling hell in Germany each year.
Can confirm, used to live in D15 and D3 for ages.
Amen to that! (I’ve been a musician for 23 years now)
Hey us Irish folks are totally up your alley when it comes to accordions. <3

Thank you. Feel digitally hugged. :)
Mit dem Schwert nach Polen, warum René?
Ein Klassiker, der auch bis heute super aktuell ist. :)
As we Irish folks tend to say: “Won’t you be worrying, love” :)
You are in for such an epic 5 season ride. :)
I hope you recover soon. All the best!
Are you interested in Sci-Fi by any chance? If so, start binging Babylon 5.
Same in Ireland, not too sure about the UK legal situation since I don’t really spend much time there anymore, but I’m still carrying / smuggling my Kubotan over to IE. There’s some places you should really be prepared for the worst in Dublin. My favourite situation so far happened in a side alley of Temple Bar at night when a junkie tried to rob me, threatening me with a dirty syringe. I had my telescopic steel security baton with me and he quickly realised he’d end up in hospital or 6 feet under if he tried that shite with me. He fecked off somewhere else real quick like the devil himself was chasing him.
Flying. That’s my Cryptonite. It’s not necessarily a problem with heights since I do love hiking, but at least I’ve got solid ground under my feet and if I fall down, well, that’s my dumb mistake then for not being careful enough. The mountains and hills are my friends.
Then again I do struggle with sitting on a balcony 3rd floor or higher, I really don’t like staircases with gaps between each step and I can not climb up a ladder higher than two meters.
I never fly. Even if you offered me a million Euros, I would not accept the deal. Every time I travel between mainland Europe and the UK or Ireland, I take busses, trains and ferries. It takes fairly long (2 days), it’s expensive, but fuck no to flying.
Then again my superpower is to never get seasick. I grew up in a very maritime environment, I knew how to kayak before I learnt how to ride a bicycle at age 5. I love stormy seas, it makes me feel very alive.
Last time I took the ferry from France to England, the ship went into a massive storm. All the furniture was moving around, most passengers got seasick. The lad next to my table was just hugging his table trying not to throw up - while I was sitting next to him with a cold pint of beer, smiling, having the time of my life. :D
That’s exactly what my self-defence teacher repeated nonstop: The best self-defence is getting the fuck away from the danger. Unfortunately, that’s not always possible, so you need a plan B as well.
And yes, before carrying around weapons, you need to learn how and when to use them.

Lol, I recently watched Voyager again and Janeway is badass. The only bigger badass is her:

I never leave the house unarmed. I recommend self-defence classes and weapons training for each and every gal. There’s too many weirdos out there and having trained self-defence for quite many years became very useful a few times in the past for me.
Danke, unterwegs zum Bahnhof im Dorf direkt 3 Bekannte getroffen. Die Zugbegleiterin und einige Fahrgäste fanden den Fellball auch sehr toll. Die ist aber auch verdammt süß. ^^ Jetzt sind wir im Bus zur Fähre.
He went out with a bang.
I introduced a friend with the first episode of Strange New Worlds. Then they binged TNG & VOY. More to come soon. ^^
