  • And? These allegations were also known since 2016. But that didn’t stop anyone from voting for him, twice.

    • His Conspiracy Theorist supporters will call it an AI fake, created by the deep state.
    • For his Christian voters he’ll be redeemed if he pays 50 shekels to the girls father and marries her.
    • His nazi supporters might say: “Whell that’s not nice. But at least he’s getting rid of the immigrants.”
    • His sexist supporters will say “Well 13 might be a bit young, but after all it’s her fault for wearing such a short skirt. And with these kids nowadays you never know their real age”.
    • His MAGA supporters will say “I don’t care, he’s our saviour. If he deems such things necessary, who am I to question him.”
    • The Idiots say “Well he might be an asshole, but Kamala Harris also did some bad things.”
    • And his courts say that it’s already barred or he’s got immunity or he just enacts a new law that makes rape legal if the perpetrator is a politician. He’ll have the Congress’s support, as soon as the files are released.

    Did I forget anyone?






  • Misleading advertising is illegal in the EU and I assume that the same is true (to some extent) for most places outside the USA:

    Prohibition of unfair commercial practices

    1. Unfair commercial practices shall be prohibited.
    2. A commercial practice shall be unfair if: it is contrary to the requirements of professional diligence, and it materially distorts or is likely to materially distort the economic behaviour with regard to the product of the average consumer whom it reaches or to whom it is addressed, or of the average member of the group when a commercial practice is directed to a particular group of consumers.

    Whether the advertising above is illegal, would be for courts to decide. It depends if an average customer would fall for it. That would also depend on the circumstances: Next to a highway where you only have half a second to read the sign, it would be illegal, but maybe not next to a footpath where you can read it for 2 minutes before passing it.








  • About ten years ago I had a pizza with “friarielli” in a pizzaria in Milano without knowing what that is. The friarielli tasted so good that I really wanted to eat it again, but it doesn’t seem to exist where I live, and even in northern Italy it wasn’t in season whenever I returned there, or at least I couldn’t find it.

    But last year I finally got my own little garden and this spring I got my hands on some seeds of (hopefully) the right plant. I’ve just sowed them yesterday, so hold your thumbs for me. Maybe I’ll finally eat my favourite pizza again in a few weeks.

    The pizzaria was probably this one, according to my Google maps history: https://maps.app.goo.gl/yo9Tk8Mqr7YViYVM8
