@jon Aha, that was the possibility i thought might be doable. Well I hope your dad makes it OK despite all the excess water and that your partner can argue the movers into submission

@jon Random nerdy question - do you have to go into Paris and out again to get to Ravières or is there an alternative? The SNCF being a very different beast, I'm always surprised if I DON'T have to go via the capital.

Just when I thought the story couldn't get any better.

Crystal has offered to put Nicky Doll in touch with their lawyer, who shafted Fox last time.

@Methylzero Sorry, was using A level (an exam qualification) to describe the sort of things you'd learn at the 16-18 age.

Crosspost to Chemistry mastodon (cc@[email protected]): I used to be more tapped into the UK chemed than I am these days, so when a friend (40s) asked about sites to brush up on their A-level chem, I realised some of my ideas were a bit out of date. Can you help? Thanks in advance

Silke Schröder, Vorständin beim Verein Deutsche Sprache, fordert die "Remigration" von Journalist:innen. Dieser rechtsextreme Kampfbegriff bedeutet nichts anderes als Deportation. Schröder war auch bei einem konspirativen Treffen, das @correctiv_org aufgedeckt hat.

Klare Kante notwendig

Der Deutsche Journalisten-Verband fordert vom Verein Deutsche Sprache (VDS) deutliche Konsequenzen für das Vorstandsmitglied Silke Schröder und eine klare Distanzierung von deren Aussagen.

Dad's on a Flixbus from Munich to Innsbruck today due to the train strikes in Germany. I'm fascinated to think of my dad on a Flixbus TBH, can't really picture it
