Homer has two words to describe #Trump's behavior:

υπέρβιος ύβρις (pronounced hyperbios hybris)

translated to English: lawless hubris

These are words Homer used repeatedly to describe Penelope's suitors, probably the most contemptible men in Odyssey, whom Odysseus and his son Telemachus trapped inside the palace and then killed one by one along with their collaborators.

Κάθαρσις (catharsis, closure) was a necessary condition for life to return to normality. For the Greeks.

@vandenberglegs i am sure carbon frames can last almost as long as steel frames ; you just have to take much better care of them than steel frames! and most people can't do that. i certainly can't :-) #Ymmv

@Anibyl Carbon is what carbon does :-). If you ride your carbon bicycle a lot, it will have these sorts of "cracking" issues far sooner than a steel frame ridden the same distance. It seems pointless unless you are part of a racing team with a mechanic and you get new bicycles every 5 years or less OR you have lots of $ #Ymmv

#BookReview for "Cultish: The Language of Fanaticism" by Amanda Montell Recommended I wish it was more engaging, gave practical tips for recognizing and avoiding cult-like experiences, and dove more into cult tactics. I'm rating it highly because of how important the topic is, naming specific groups. This book helps people learn the dangers of multi-level marketing, CrossFit, Teal Swan, and more.

Ich kenne es noch aus den Zeiten des Protokolls nntp://, aus den Zeiten des UseNet.

YMMV – Your Mileage May Vary (Deine Erfahrungen können/mögen andere sein).

Ich weiß nicht wann, aber genau dieses Wissen ging irgendwann kurz vor 2000 verloren …

I've seen these 5L #drybags in multiple Dollarama stores, so if you're headed south for a beach vacation, these could come in handy.
Also for the cottage if you're a boater or camper.
