Austerity for the win /s
Clarence Thomas: “Invoking the heavenly powers to win an election violates freedom of religion according to the first amendment and therefore renders Kamala Harris ineligible to run for president.”
I’m not sure if you could call Russian occupation ‘peace’ in Ukraine
If anything, it’s the other way around
The image description is quite offensive. This is not a ravioli, it’s a Maultasche. You wouldn’t call a burrito a dürüm, would you?

Is that referring to Jeff Bezos?
The cheapest kind of pride, on the other hand, is national pride. For it reveals in those who have it the lack of individual qualities of which they could be proud, for otherwise they would not have recourse to what they share with so many millions. On the contrary, he who possesses significant personal merits will recognize most clearly the faults of his own nation, since he has them constantly before his eyes. But every miserable wretch, who has nothing in the world to be proud of, resorts to the last resort of being proud of the nation to which he happens to belong. He rests on this and is now gratefully prepared to defend with tooth and nail all the faults and follies peculiar to it.
Arthur Schopenhauer, 1851

They can’t get kicked out but their voting rights in the councils could be suspended. That would require unanimous approval by all other member states.
In the past, Hungary under Orbán and Poland under Morawiecki had some kind of pact to protect each other from such a suspension. With Tusk now the Polish prime minister, that’s no longer the case, but there’s some fear that Slovakia’s Fico could shield Orbán instead.
I don’t understand these comics. Are they pro religion? Are they anti-religious satire?
The first comic seems to both warn against satan and attack religion. It might be talking about all religions but the right one.
The second comic is even more confusing. First it seems to associate education and the theory of evolution in particular with satan. But then it seems to associate rejection of education with punks who aren’t necessarily known for their religiosity.
The third comic, finally, is pretty clear, painting wealth and entertainment (sports) as detractions from religion. This could technically still be satire though.
Some people feel judged for eating meat if they learn that you’re a vegetarian or vegan. As veganism appears more extreme, it causes a stronger reaction.
These people don’t like being judged, so they seek to judge you instead. If they can judge you for not eating meat, you can’t judge them for eating it, or so they feel.
Some vegans being quite obnoxious in their attempts to convert others, doesn’t improve things. Rather, it helps those who dislike vegans to reaffirm their beliefs that all vegans are silently judging them all the time.
All of this is just my theory.

You might not know it, but catapults were originally invented to deliver ads across long distances. Only later was their usefulness for warfare discovered.
After the invention of the airship, catapults became obsolete for advertising. They continued to be used though in the trenches of World War I.
Hey, remember the days of pop-up windows where the X button was labelled “Open in background” if you hovered over it. At least there’s been some progress. \s
And yet you are ignoring the real threat

The court that issued the arrest warrant, called “Federal Supreme Court” in the article, isn’t actually the Bundesverfassungsgericht (federal constitutional court, highest court in Germany) but the Bundesgerichtshof (federal court of law) subordinate to it. The Bundesgerichtshof though is one of the Oberste Bundesgerichte (supreme federal courts).
how could we trust them selecting the people who has much more power than that
Who else is there to trust but us humans?
humans can’t decide for themselves over insignificant phone charger
Individual humans don’t have the ability to choose their phone based on their preferred charger. Each purchase is made between one buyer with fairly limited funds and few large corporations with extensive funds.
That’s my gut feeling as well
