My kid just asked why we don't have a pool. I said because we don't need a pool. He said "Tommy's house has a pool." Tommy's house has a lot of things. Tommy's dad is a surgeon. I'm not getting into a "my dad versus Tommy's dad" economic comparison with a 10-year-old. I said pools are expensive to maintain and we wouldn't use it enough to justify the cost. He said "but we could use it every day in summer." We wouldn't. We'd use it for two weeks, get bored, and then it would sit there costing money. I've seen this play out with our neighbors. They put in a $60K pool. Used it constantly for one summer. Now it just exists. But I can't explain this to a kid who just wants to swim. So I said "maybe someday" which is parent code for "no but I don't want to argue about it." He seemed satisfied with that answer. I'm not getting a pool.

Die Bürger sollen erfahren, wo unser Steuergeld bleibt.☝️ 6.005.000 Euro gibt die Bundesregierung für das Programm "Stärkung der geschlechterresponsiven Bewirtschaftung von Waldökosystemen und Agroforstsystemen" in Indien aus. Indien ist übrigens ein Land, welches einen Flugzeugträger entwickelt und gebaut hat, kürzlich einen zweiten Flughafen und die U-Bahn in Mumbai eröffnet hat, Raumfahrt betreibt und eine Atommacht ist. Nur zur Einordnung.🤷‍♂️

Took my kids to the Christmas market in Hamburg today First thing I did was walk them around the perimeter I explained each concrete barrier, each bollard and armed guard My daughter asked why there are so many policemen at a Christmas market "Honey, Germany is a welcoming country, and welcoming countries need protection from people they welcome" She nodded and asked "but why the lights are so dark?" I explained Christmas lights are reduced by 80% this year to hit EU carbon neutrality targets "Daddy, but the tree is also very small, is there a bigger one somewhere?" What an annoying kid. I remained calm though "Baby, that's sustainable forestry. The tree is just the right size" My wife said quietly that maybe we could visit a market in Switzerland next year I clenched my fist and told her that Switzerland isn't in the EU, their lights are against the Paris Climate Agreement, and she should think before she speaks I love my family but it’s not easy to stay composed when they try to ignore core European values

German state spending is what needs to be addressed. Not the taxes.

Make coffee at home they said. You’ll save a bunch of money and retire early they said.

Und die Konsequenzen? Gibt‘s wenigstens irgendein Zeichen des Bedauerns von ⁦@andreasscheuer⁩ ? Und was sagt ⁦@Markus_Soeder⁩ ? Es erschüttert auch das Vertrauen in Politik, wenn keine Bereitschaft besteht, solche im Wortsinn kapitale Fehler zuzugeben.

There are no more borders in the European Union. However, you will always know where the Netherlands begins.

was zur Hölle kann man gegen FAHRRADWEGE haben, ich habe mich an die schrecklichsten Meinungen gewöhnt, aber was zur Hölle ist falsch an FAHRRADWEGEN, wie kann es jemanden stören, dass jemand a) Fahrrad fährt und b) dabei nicht überfahren werden will

A father told his daughter, "Congrats on your graduation. I bought you a car a while back. I want you to have it now." Before I give it to you, take it to a car dealer in the city and sell it. See how much they offer.” The girl came back to her father & said: "They offered me $10,000 dollars because it looks very old" Father said: "Ok, now take it to the pawn shop". The girl returns to her father & said: "The pawn shop offered $1,000 dollars because it's a very old car & a lot of work done". The father told her to join a passionate car club with experts & show them the car. The girl drove to the passionate car club. She returned to her father after a few hours & told him, “Some people in the club offered me $100k because its a rare car that's in good condition.” Then the father said, "I wanted to let you know that you are not worth anything if you are not in the right place. If you are not appreciated, do not be angry, that means you are in the wrong place. Don't stay in a place where no one sees your value ." The moral of the story : Know your worth and know where you are valued. A diamond doesn't shine on the bottom of a cave.
