@QasimRashid And, on top of that, manipulated us into believing that the economy and prices would explode if we pay workers a living wage.

I find the play of colours on the snow - pink and blue and grey and yellow in contrast to the dark blue sky - absolutely mesmerizing. Also, I love wolves.

Alfred Wierusz-Kowalski
Wilki (Wolves)
ca. 1900
National Museum in Poznań

A pack of wolves in a snowy landscape. The landscape is mostly nondescript. A lone wolf is in the front of the painting. In the background are some trees, a small forest maybe. The sky is dark blue. The white snow shows a mesmerizing play of colours, of pink, light blue, a bit of yellow.

@ianbetteridge German economy is running itself into a brick wall if they continue to support yesteryear's technology. But what will you expect from people deep in the pockets of the fossil industry?

The Plaza after the Rain

A gray, rainy winter day. A city view, a boulevard with trees that opens up to a plaza, people are walking on the streets. The trees have lost their leaves.

Willem Koekkoek, Winter Streetscene, circa 1880
Private Collection, Australia

A romantic, old fashioned genre winter scene: A street in the Netherlands with old dutch houses. People are hustling and bustling on the snowy street. The painter wanted it to look like the style of paintings in Vermeer's time and age.

@Tattooed_Mummy Three years ago when we went to Sicily for a trip. I hate flying and avoid it whenever I can. But that time it was a gift for my son and he wanted me to come with him.

@DrALJONES Without knowing the author (thanks for the book recomendatio btw) I can remember that I watched a docu about Zuckerberg? Or the Silicon valley? Can't remember but I remember that there was an interview with Zuckerberg. It was years and years ago, must be 15 years at least because I saw it while we still lived in Australia. And I can remember that I said to my husband that I sure hope that those uber-rich guys never ever feel the need to meddle with politics because that would be bad.

Lesestoff today (na gut, ab Morgen, ist schon spät heute). Mir fiel das Buch in die Hände als ich auf der Suche nach neuem Lesestoff durch meine Regale gegangen bin.

Buchcover: Arno Gruen, Der Wahnsinn der Normalität. Realismus als Krankheit: Eine Theorie der menschlichen Destruktivität. Auf dem Bild unter der Überschrift ist ein Fenster zu sehen. Eine Person geht an diesem Fenster vorbei, der Hintergrund ist nicht klar erkennbar.

See, fun facts are fun. I didn't know that "Olf" is a unit.

@jascha No, I am olf-fashioned and still call them fun facts. And the opportunity to talk about the gathered knowledge will come eventually.

Last week I was able to talk about the tulipmania in the 17th century. Yesterday the fact that babies have no kneecaps and more bones than adults. Next week... who knows...?
