As long as it doesn’t correlate, there’s a chance it’s right.😋

Flaffenfeit is a spoof unit that makes little sense as either length, weight, temperature or energy, like Imperial.
Unlike metric where 1cm3 of water is 1g and take 1 calorie to heat 1°C. And water freezes at 0°C and boils at 100. With metric I can convert easily in my head, for instance adding 2dl water to 200g of flour, can be easily done on the weight without needing a measurement cup. Likewise calculating between inch, yard, mile is not easy. Where cm, meter and km is as easy as pie.

To those not familiar with Flaffenfeit here on World News:
4 Flaffenfeit is about -3 ounces or 2 feet AFAIK.

OK it’s apparently been a while since I last bought Kebab or Shawarma which is more common here in Copenhagen, but AFAIK the same thing. I just checked the prices, and they are already €8-10 here!
20 years ago they were only €2 on Nørrebrogade which had super steep competition, and they were crazy good, I’ve only gotten good quality meat here too. Crazy that it’s so expensive now?!

Really? Is that normal Kebab size in pita bread, or the bigger variant in rolls? Because that sounds crazy expensive even here, and I’m from Denmark, the 2nd most expensive country in Europe after Norway AFAIK.

?? So you are saying a kebab is ALREADY €10 Euro, or are you saying that you too fear that it will soon be?
Nobody denies rising cost of living in general, but that’s not what the article is about.

warnings from some quarters that the dish will soon cost more than €10 a serving. Hanna Steinmüller, an MP for the Greens, raised the issue after she was approached by anxious members of a frisbee youth club

What the fuck am I reading here? That does not sound like very reliable sources. It sounds more like complete bullshit.

I wonder if you also have to say you’re non Muslim.

I am buying it for a guest, I promise!

Brexit could be playing a big part too.
Worker and material shortage have been problems caused by Brexit in other industries too. Inflation is also blamed for the increased price, and that has been worse in UK after Brexit than comparable EU countries.
But we are talking about a 12 year delay now, no way this latest delay is all due to Covid and Brexit. Now they complain about Piping complexity 7 years after it was due! Really?

It’s a joke, I’ve added a smiley to show as much. But the parts about the King being a nice guy and a Navy Seal or rather our equivalent to it are true. He passed the toughest military education we have.

This will completely shift the balance of power in Europe, King Frederik X is a genuine Navy Seal, by far the most bad ass royalty in Europe.
But he appear to be a generally nice guy, so the rest of Europe should be able to breathe easy. As long as you don’t piss him off! 😋

Yes, working class is being systematically undermined, I think that may have been part of why the likes of Boris Johnson wanted out. They are doing things now that wouldn’t be legal as an EU member. For instance limiting the democratic freedom to protest.

You are thinking about economy as a Zero sum game, but that’s not how economy works. Even if there are people that make money when the economy is down, that doesn’t mean they make as much as others have lost. If they did, the economy wouldn’t be down, it would merely have shifted.
The fact that economy is NOT a zero sum game, is kind of a corner stone in how EU works. We all benefit from being able to trade with each other on equal terms.

The fact that UK is doing as poorly as they are, kind of proves the idea is right. You can be against EU for ideological reasons, but being against it for economic reasons, make little sense. And the Brexit campaign constantly hammered the idea, that despite all reason, UK would somehow benefit economically from Brexit. Anyone who believed the Brexit propaganda were conned.

The ones that might gain from this, are the filthy rich, who are working on undermining UK welfare and general conditions for middle and lower class people, to exploit the population more for their own gains.

Or as it’s called in North Korea “Extreme old age”.

I don’t get it, Erdogan has used doctrine from Islam on interest rates to correct this, how come it isn’t working?

Yes it’s a security problem, but not remotely close to the security problem Russia poses to Europe.
The middle east is mostly a security problem for Europe in the form of refugees.

Israel were always as bad or worse than Hamas, and Israel are the ones with the power to change things for the better. The Palestinians live like in an occupied territory, where they are oppressed and discriminated against in their own territory.
We cannot say Palestinians are the bad guys, when thy never had a chance to build a normal life.

Still even when there was a clear majority for aid, the aid was held back on important tactical equipment.
But unfortunately the Republicans are traitors who support the obvious traitor Trump and his policies of supporting Russia, despite it’s so very clearly against American interests.
So called “moderate” republicans like Mitt Romney, still support the policies that prevent aid to Ukraine, and thereby help Russia. So basically all republicans are traitors against USA and very much traitors against democracy in general. Which has always been a key value for USA since their independence.
It’s vary hard seeing that here from Europe, that USA support for democracy is declining like it is.

True, there ought to be Western intervention, but instead we are helping Israel. But as bad as that is, it is not a security problem for Europe in nearly the same way Russia is.
I have no solution to the Israel/Gaza problem, and I am not sure we are supporting the right side.

Yes that’s outrageous too, but it’s not a European security problem the same way Russia is. That said, I am so sick of our politicians defending and even supporting Israel.
