If “ish bin ein Berliner” translates as “I am a jelly donut” (favorite anecdote of mein lehrer)
Then does “ich bin ein amerikaner” translate as “I am a loaf of sliced bread”?
Edit: thanks fam 🤙
Amerikaner is a cookie but not a chocolate chip cookie, never ever would have guessed 🤣

However the third book, Sword of the Lictor, is the best in the series. So many of the best moments are in this book, as well as some of the most famous quotes.
For me, the masquerade ball at the Archon’s palace is the “buckle up” moment for the rest of the story.
For a real trip, restart book 1 immediately after finishing book 4: there is so much you will see know that you know what to look for.
Also matey, the audible audiobooks are amazing 😎

Kampfradler. I read War-Roader -> Roadwarrior but Google translate says Combat Cyclists… So… Battlerider? Sweet👌
Is it that battleriders are taking the streets away from drivers? and that since only drivers carry the taxburden then battleriders don’t deserve their own rideways?
They are a boomer because their “cure” (give them no roads!) just feeds the “disease” (they took muh roads!)?
This looked way way easier to decode when I first scrolled past it 😂
the traffic light coalition
a road in dustbowl conditions, the whole east has that problem
lots of German flags and judging by the colour an AfD one
Damn, thanks for bringing the context! Never heard of a traffic light coalition before, TIL
Thanks for clarifying! I went and looked up umweltshutz and I tell you hwat “worlds protection” is a fuck of a lot cooler than “environmentalism”
How did I do?

Is it a joke about immigration critics? That they fucked around and now they’re finding out?

Can’t wait for code review lol.
Thanks! I always enjoy trying to decode German memes with what I recall from school and some guessing.
This is the first one I thought I actually understood haha.

MalikMuaddibSoong@startrek.websiteto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Bad film with amazing premise and mediocre execution that you can't stop thinking about?English5·5 months agoYeah really fun premise slathered in boring characters.
If I recall it devolved into some CW-flavor bullshit revolving around the girl, who is her real father, why is she special. Blah blah blah.

Today we wield both kind of uncleftish doings in weapons, and kernelish splitting gives us heat and bernstoneness. We hope to do likewise with togethermelting, which would yield an unhemmed wellspring of work for mankindish goodgain.
Truer now than when Henry Ford said it like a hundred years go.
The SEC exists to shelter Self Regulating Organizations from any threats of democratic governance or law enforcement. Oh ya and to keep up the legalese charade that there literally is no such thing as counterfeit stock (because the Secret Service has purview over counterfeiting for some strange reason)
Fuck the stock market 🖕
