Are pan-fried potatoes a thing in Western Europe and the Americas? As an Eastern European, it’s a staple, and probably the favourite food for most children. In the UK, neither of my Western flatmates appreciated it and used the oven instead, which was a cultural blow to me.

@isicam08 @JuanMarcos46507 @rafetavlc La negociación con sindicatos no tiene nada que ver con esto. Si las cotizaciones cubren las enfermedades de los trabajadores, porqué no deberían también cubrir las de sus familiares? Todos ganamos dinero con nuestro sudor, si no nos parece suficiente, cambiamos de trabajo.

@calat_jf @JuanMarcos46507 @rafetavlc Que curioso comentario. Para eso se quiere eliminar la negociación colectiva, los sindicatos, para ver auien paga, si quien gana dinero con el sudor del de enfrente o quien suda para que otro gane dinero.

Han ingresado a mi madre, ¿por qué mi hermano tiene derecho a 5 días de permiso y yo como autónomo no tengo derecho a nada? Obligaciones tenenos muchas los autónomos, derechos muy pocos, mierda de leyes que nos tratan como ciudadanos de segunda. Tienen más derechos los inmigrantes irregulares que los autónomos.

@isicam08 @JuanMarcos46507 @rafetavlc Alguien tiene que cubrir las desgracias de las personas, muerte de familiares, enfermedades.... lo que no tiene sentido es que sean las empresas, debería ser el estado con el dinero de las cotizaciones, que para eso las pagamos cada mes, empleados y autónomos.

@calat_jf @JuanMarcos46507 @rafetavlc Como a el, lo,que pasa es que el es la empresa.

@tuittlu @rafetavlc Segun dices es más fácil montar un montar un bar que ser camarero. Vaya....

@calat_jf @rafetavlc No todos lo conseguirían...alguno que se hace autónomo lo hace porque no lo quieren en ningún lado o no sirve para eso, porque como ya he dicho, todo tiene sus pros pero también sus contras.

@tuittlu @rafetavlc Y si todos nos hacemos asalariados por cuenta ajena?

@rafetavlc Ser autónomo es una opción voluntaria, con sus pros y sus contras. Hazte asalariado por cuenta ajena y tendrás sus pros pero también sus contras, si alguien te quiere contratar claro. Vuestro problema no es la desigualdad, es que queréis sólo las ventajas de todo.

@isicam08 @JuanMarcos46507 @rafetavlc A su hermano le paga la empresa

@JuanMarcos46507 @rafetavlc Como a su hermano.

@Toledo_Olvidado ¿Acaso esperabas que empeorase? Acabas de descubrir el milagro económico español de los 60

Mira estas dos fotos de Toledo por GBFernie5 tomadas en 1956. Amplíalas, mira detenidamente sus detalles. Verás calles de tierra, casas en ruinas, monumentos destrozados, riberas con escombros, pobreza…Describirás cómo nuestra ciudad ha mejorado desde entonces.

A woman wearing a traditional Portuguese folk costume from Viana do Castelo... The attire shown is known as a traje de festa, specifically originating from the Minho region of Portugal. The costume includes ornate handmade gold jewelry, such as the coração de Viana (heart of Viana) often worn by women in this region. These traditional dresses are typically worn during cultural festivals and celebrations, such as the Festival de Folclore Internacional Alto Minho. © Reddit #drthehistories

@NoContextBrits The dog eating it

What’s missing from this breakfast?

@vndkshn @archer_rs Why do you drive BMWs and Porsches instead of Chevrolets if European cars don't have "Great quality!"

@calat_jf @archer_rs Who said it was my first time? I literally learned to drive on a manual trans car. I currently own 5 cars with manuals. I'm a racing instructor for BMWCCA and Porsche Club. BTW, how do you think I said it was likely a bad master cylinder? I've replaced them before.

Europeans are not "blocking" US supersized pick up trucks, they are for sale here. We do not buy them because of three reasons. 1 - They are poorly made 2 - They are unreliable 3 - They are stupid ft.com/content/3eb796…

@vndkshn @archer_rs It could also be that it was the first time you drove a manual car, you didn't know where the clutch was, and what was stuck was your shoe to a chewing gum.

@archer_rs True story: in 2024 my wife and I went to Portugal for vacation. Rented a car, turned out to be a brand new VW, we were first renters. Had to return it the next day because the clutch pedal would stick to the floor (bad clutch master cylinder is my guess). "Great quality!"

@LiquidPapier @front_ukrainian Turkey is not in Europe

@front_ukrainian Pretty sure turkey has a drone carrier

❗️In 🇹🇩Romania, the first European drone carrier ship named Dom João II was launched into the water for the 🇵🇹Portuguese Navy

@b_keating @MykhailoRohoza Are you saying it's better to live on your knees than to die on your feet? How low we've fallen...

@MykhailoRohoza A promising, intelligent leader? He chose to fight a Russia he could not defeat, as so many who should have defended their country fled. For 3 years he babbles on about fighting until victory, while his men fall by attrition. He put pride and ambition ahead of his people’s lives.

Kissinger said to President Zelensky during the full-scale invasion: “You have destroyed a myth that existed for 200 years.” That was then. But why is America silent now? In Prague, there are large-scale protests against pro-Russian leaders; even in Slovakia and Hungary, similar demonstrations take place from time to time. And yet the most powerful country — once a model of democracy — remains silent. What is this? Was there an artificial myth about the best and richest country in the world? It was you who elected him. It was because of you that a young, promising, intelligent, and pro-Ukrainian candidate, Nikki Haley, was forced to withdraw from the race. Why was a relatively small Ukraine able to elect a young, intelligent, and unbreakable president admired around the world, while you keep being drawn to aging politicians with dementia? What’s wrong with you, USA? Wake up. Otherwise, disaster will come not only for you, but for the entire world. Spanish shame…

@rankaplak @theepicmap Okay, I get it. The fact that Russian generals were useless and sent their soldiers to fight regardless of the lives lost, sometimes without weapons but fueled by vodka, gives them the right to conquer territory. Like now in Ukraine.

That territory is called Kaliningrad. It used to be the German city of Königsberg, but after World War II it became part of the Soviet Union — and today it belongs to Russia. Why? Because the Soviet Union defeated Nazi Germany together with the Allies. The Soviet Union paid the highest price in that victory: around 27 million people died, entire cities were destroyed, and the Red Army carried the main ground war against Nazi Germany on the Eastern Front. After the war, at the Potsdam Conference, the Allies (USA, UK, and USSR) agreed to transfer northern East Prussia, including Königsberg, to the Soviet Union. So Russia does not “own a part of Germany” randomly — that territory was reassigned after the defeat of Nazi Germany as part of the post-war settlement. History matters.

Can someone please explain to me why Russia owns this part of Germany?

@zascandil35 @MichaelAArouet Eso es mentira. Los españoles somos vagos, ladrones, mentirosos y sinvergüenzas. Nuestros políticos son el reflejo de lo que somos.

@MichaelAArouet Es muy sencillo. Alemania y Francia exigieron a España para entrar en la UE que se deshiciera de su industria naval, su industria pesada, y agrocampo. Además de una gran carga fiscal, es de los países con mayor esfuerzo fiscal

That's eye-opening, change in real wages from 1994 to 2024 (%). Just look at Italy and Spain, three lost decades. What were politicians thinking when they introduced the euro there? Why can’t they admit it was a mistake?

@torro0101 @MichaelAArouet This statistics are about medium, not minimum wages.

@MichaelAArouet I would be very suprised. Minimum wages in spain have doubled in just 2 or 3 years. I’m pretty sure these statistics are bullshit

@CurvaTheBill @MichaelAArouet Because this are more serious countries. Hard workers and better politics.

@Birraioestense @MichaelAArouet Because French, Germans and Austrian are generally more honest than Spanish.

@MichaelAArouet And why things has gone in a better way in France, Germany, Austria with Euro?
