@grrlscientist Trump is insane

Another frustration I have with expat life : Despite the translation and prononciation of my name being easy in this new language, locals can't fathom the existence of a compound first name. So I end up being called by half of my actual name 100% of the time. Trying to explain results in much confusion and is successful 25% of the time.

A problem with expat life so far: wanting to use the local library to read some books but there are barely any books (and no recent ones at that) available in English. It wouldn't be such a problem if I didn't read like a 3rd grader in this country's language.

@lemillefeuilles J'adore cette série ! J'ai à peu près 13 tomes en anglais et j'attends patiemment les prochains

What is a REAL book? 📚

@dangillmor I wonder if we have to worry about other ring type cameras too or just Ring camera... a member of my household just bought an offbrand one...
Why did Google Play ask me to verify my age to download Bluesky ? I don't want Google to have that kind of information on me. Maybe I just won't use Bluesky.
@sturmsucht That is a very pretty picture!
I miss reading physical books, but my bank account does not.
