@AllonShevat The Old Celtic word ‘glana’ translates into German as ‘Glonn’. Initially name of a small river on which the community was founded later.

Why are there two 'n's in Glonn.

Greetings from Glonn, Upper Bavaria, our base for this week’s leadership retreat. ❤️

@mattcharney No problem. The world's largest cannabis fair takes place in Berlin in June. Photos ok — maryjane-berlin.com

The problem with hanging with stoners is no one ever remembers to take pictures (or is too afraid to)…

@AllonShevat Do it like Hells Angels! They don't tweet to solve a problem... 😉

@mattcharney People who have sunk to this low level are called politicians...

Jullie moeten toch geen oude Duitse drinkgewoonten overnemen! Die zijn bij ons ook niet meer van deze tijd.😉

@AllonShevat @lufthansa Better book standard eco + “legroom” seats (+8 cm) or “extra legroom” seats in exit rows for an additional charge. Works out cheaper in the end.

I was in the shower last night and I felt something on the back of my neck and it was this chip- looking thing.😭 Anyone have any idea what this is?

NEW: AOC says her ambition is “way bigger” than the presidency or a Senate seat.

@Purge99 @two_twenty_four @TimothyDooner @jmkettle You have to deal with reality as best you can. You also have to decide quickly when countermeasures are useless, too time-consuming, or too expensive.
English
@EikeGS @two_twenty_four @TimothyDooner @jmkettle It obviously is a problem, if they’re limiting your ability to say it.
English
Giving a restaurant a three star review is illegal in Germany.
English
@Purge99 @two_twenty_four @TimothyDooner @jmkettle That's not a problem. Most people interpret it as an average. Even negative reviews won't hurt your business if a) they're true and b) you fix the problem they refer to.
English
@two_twenty_four @EikeGS @TimothyDooner @jmkettle If a 3/5 star review and a “it’s fine” comment crashes your business than you deserve to be crashed.
English
@TimothyDooner @two_twenty_four @Purge99 @jmkettle As a business owner, you receive costly review offers. Either positive for you, or negative toward competitors.
Quality of fake reviews varies, you don't always notice it.
Mistakes are usually simple—e.g., you only have local customers, but the reviews all come from Asia, ec.
English
@two_twenty_four @Purge99 @TimothyDooner @jmkettle Fake reviews are orchestrated professionally, making it virtually impossible to identify the people behind them or their clients = often competitors. Business owners need to be able to defend themselves against this.
English
@TimothyDooner @jmkettle Of course, you can leave negative reviews. In the event of a dispute, you’ll need to be able to prove that you were a real customer. Nobody wants idiots w/o product or service experience who write negative reviews for money.

@thetimes When referring to politicians’ wives as ‘sluts’, should the term ‘slut’ be used as a determiner or a possessive?

@AndySpence Both Brits and Germans are fleeing abroad to escape the political caricatures they themselves have elected – this seems to be the new normal in 2026 😉

@AllonShevat It’s no problem at all. Children need to learn that life has rules anyway. It’s doable. And for children’s parties/birthdays, we book children’s farms, play restaurants and the like.

My kids acted superbly as do my grandkids. All 5

@AllonShevat Parents often act as advocates of ill-mannered children. Teach children to behave impeccably without resorting to violence or shouting. When my little grandnephews (aged 3–5) enter a restaurant, they greet older people at the tables without being asked. Works ...
