Too old for business nonsense, not old enough for wisdom. My hobbies mostly have paws. Or involve needles or brushes.
Located Portugal North. No English native-speaker. Born German, convinced European.

The most ridiculous thing about cop procedural shows is when they ask where a person was, and what they were doing at a specific time the person always has perfect and immediate recall. I'd be desperately trying to remember what day of the week that was, and trying to open my phone calendar. If I was the cop, I'd immediately be suspicious of the person who remembered exactly where they were and what they were doing.

@RickiTarr This. I can't even remember what I had for dinner yesterday, and I am far from having an idea, when I met whom - maybe where, but not the year. 😎 People who remember days and times are highly suspicious to me.

Missed to follow the threads of @GottaLaff today, busy with plants and dogs, now I have to read for the whole evening...
Will boost the 2 starters for anybody interested, she's really great in summarizing the current NY Trial! Also @Nonilex I recommend, for the additional logical clues on it.
C U, honeybunnies 😘

is now trying to double down on voodoo economics. They are eliminating the corporate income tax rate in the belief that businesses will turn around and pay workers more wages and improve facilities and services. First of all, it doesn't help me; I don't make enough income to pay taxes. Secondly of all, it's not necessarily true that businesses use the savings to put money back in. They offshore the money or pay their execs and CEO's more. https://missouriindependent.com/briefs/missouri-house-again-votes-to-cut-corporate-income-taxes/?emci=7dc49c51-0aee-ee11-aaf0-002248223794&emdi=78f809d3-4def-ee11-aaf0-002248223794&ceid=136240

Wie kommt man auf die irrwitzige Idee, Jobcenter-Mitarbeiter zu fragen, was sie vom Bürgergeld halten?
Das sind die Leute, die sanktionieren, wenn jemand nicht zum Termin kommt, den sie per Post für den gleichen Tag ansetzen, noch bevor die Post ausliefern kann.
Die Anträge und Dokumente "verlieren".
Die falsch rechnen und Widersprüche nicht bearbeiten undundund.

Die frag ich doch nicht nach Bürgergeld - es sei denn, ich hab böse Absichten...

Nice late dogwalk. Middle of the path we met the huge shepherd guard, boss of the valley, blocking our narrow path. No way around. He just stood there, watching me and the 4 Chihuahuas plus Vinny, the 5 month big male puppy.
This dog has tought me a lot. I greeted him calmly, calmed down my pack, and we passed without trouble. I realized, his sheep were near, and the other dogs, which obey him. One of the others was awaiting us, barked, but let us pass, too. If Billy, the big one, would have given him a sign, we would have been in real trouble.
But they have learned to trust us, that we do no harm. I took a picture, after we passed Billy, Nala still behind him. I called her and she slipped through.
These are the situations I need to control myself first, before everybody else. Stay calm, no backwards, look aside, walk streight. Like the dogs do when they want to avoid trouble.

Vinny Update. The 80cm dog bed is square too small already.

Our little one Vinny has vet control today. I bet she won't recognize him. He has changed so much within the last two weeks. Hair is growing, new colours and tiger design, legs have doubled in length, face completely different.

Vinny has the perfect camouflage for this area. Sometimes, when he stands still, I have to look twice to see him.

Two days ago I could snap from far what I guess is Vinny's mom. And one guy of the village said Yesterday she is it.. has another puppy equal to Vinny. She is quite impressive... Try to get a sharp picture next time, but they are a lot on the move with sheep, I was lucky to meet her at all.

Still one of my favorites. Snap of Gizmo against the sun at the Portuguese coast somewhere.

There are hunters over the hills, and Vinny is going crazy.

Not a good picture, but just to keep record, he's growing so fast... We considered naming him Vinny Popcorn. 😁

Yay. Germany passed decriminalization of cannabis today. What a happy day for a lot of people who really need it for their health and often had to run to various doctors to find one who prescribes it. And also for all the others.
And: Alcohol is the real problematic drug in Germany. Never heard of Cannabis smokers who killed sb in traffic or beats up family members...

Take a break. Winny demonstrates, if you forgot how.

Sometimes you realize what a dirty gossip you are, I saw this pop up on YouTube, and thought, "Yeah baby, tell me that Filthy Yarn Scandal."

Y'all I don't knit, I'm not involved in this, but now I kind of want to be. Please everyone guess what the drama is!

@RickiTarr I knit, but imagining sharing a hobby with these people gives me headake now. Omg...

Somebody who announces a bloodbath for the country, if he doesn't get elected, still is on the ballots and not in jail?
US, are you completely insane?
