Made it half way through security in German. Beutel tripped me up. Next time for sure

The check bag lines for Lufthansa at Frankfurt Flughafen seem exceptionally long... I don't see any news about strikes or tech issues... Very grateful to have hand luggage only this time.

Alaska to Washington DC where we bumped into a school mate on the steps of the Lincoln memorial. Still doesn't seem like it was real

Being on a bus was pretty wild. Didn't know they had their own alarms.

Which work? Calling for gay people to be stoned to death? Blaming airplane crashes on black pilots? Anti-vax bullshit? Election denialism? Pushing Great Replacement Theory?

Kirk’s murder is awful and ominous for this country. But no, we don’t need to honor him or “continue his work.”

I never thought I would say this but renewing my residency permit at the HD Ausländerbehörde was down right easy! Online submission, response in one working day, and an appointment within the week.

I am shook.😶

The number of small businesses and artists I follow that are just not going to ship to the US after Aug 29th is staggering. Not only will people in the US lose access to so much art and excellent products, I'm deeply worried about the survival of these shops...

Farthest I've been:
N - Fairbanks, Alaska
S - somewhere in Colombia when I was about 5
E - Majuro, Marshall Islands
W - Oahu, Hawaii

Need to see the Southern hemisphere!

Do you have alternative search engine recommendations? I just switched from Google and may need to switch again apparently...

Honestly? Accurate.

I need a German word for when you very confidently tell a stranger that this bus does not go to the HBF and then the bus goes directly by the HBF. I sit in ignorance and regret.

Surprise luxury! Not a bad move honestly

I have a smoked trout Sandwich from Oahu that I'll never forget... Something about Hawaiian food man

I knew I would eventually be the old lady who looked down on tech, but this AI boom really accelerated that trajectory. Definitely gonna go down as a chat gpt hater.

Long as you don't mind paying a week's salary for a sandwich 😂

Hope your location is vegan friendly!

He is absolutely the worst thing to happen to public health in decades...

I have a friend who has planned us down to the minute. I'm just along for the ride 😅. I would love to do a tour if there's time!

Regensburg for sight seeing and a boat cruise!

Wishing you all the best, this is the worst part about being an immigrant.

A metal pole in front of a snowy mountain covered in stickers. One is a yellow oval saying in German "it's nice here, but have you been to Baden-Württemberg?"

A glorious view of a glacier with giant mountains on every side. The sky is bright blue and the day is super sunny. This is the "nice here" reference.

Shout out to the tourist from Baden-Württemberg who traveled to Switzerland, paid over 200€, found themselves on the highest point accessible in Europe, and stuck to the bit. Made me laugh! 😂

I, for one, welcome the “abundance” fight. It shows the left can fight Trumpism while wrestling with how we can be better than we’ve been.

I have no interest in “actually the government has been doing great” liberalism.

Hell is trying to file taxes as a US citizen in Germany with a spouse receiving income as a trainee under a EU non-taxation agreement with capital gains and disability payments. Honestly, I'm not even sure paying an expert would help here.
