  • I agree with you that Terry Pratchett is so much better. But it’s not very comparable. Harry Potter lives from the comfy feeling of a magical boarding school and the classic “chosen one” thing. It’s easy reading and draws a very clear imagery in the minds of the readers. The disc world is a bit more… Abstract I guess?

    So I’d rather pirate Harry Potter if it’s something that interests you. And definitely also read Terry Pratchett, simply because it is better.













  • While Germany seems nice in comparison to poor countries, our neighboring countries do many things a lot better than we do. Denmark has a functioning social security system, Netherlands have actual liveable cities, Norway is rich and laid back, Sweden is great, Spain is currently the progressive inspiration for Europe, etc.

    Germany is fucking boring, full of Nazis, falling apart due to neglected maintenance of Infrastructure over the course of the past 30-40 years, suffers from garbage conservative politics, is smothered by shit tons of bureaucracy, etc. I fully understand why young people want to leave. There’s nothing here for them.
