I need everyone to know that the german word for mullet (the hairstyle) isn't a word at all.
It's the equivalent of calling the mullet "Froshbalo" in english.
Why? Because Vokuhila (the German 'word') is simply "Vorne kurz hinten lang" (Front short back long)
I need everyone to know that.
And I will now start calling a mullet a Froshbalo because honestly that word is banging.

Are audio/radio dramas for children not a common thing in other countries??????
I spent 90% of my childhood listening to audio dramas of Die fünf Freunde(Famous five), Hanni & Nanni (St. Clare's), TKKG and many more while playing with Legos or drawing or whatever.
What did all of you do if radio dramas aren't as widespread???? Sit in silence?????
A N D apparently you're allowed to just....make stories up for radio dramas???
Hanni & Nanni originally only consists of 6 books by Enid Blyton and 2 by Pamela Cox.
Do you know how many audio dramas there are in Germany????
76 episodes.
There are 22 Famous five books.
There are 157 audio dramas.
Are you telling me the rest of the world did not grow up listening to these adventures???? Y'all were robbed.

A new CDU ad just found its way on my dash:
Tumblr media
Ich hab keine Ahnung was 'Ehegatten splitten' ist, aber ich entscheide mich einfach für:
DIE CDU WILL DASS SICH ALLE LEUTE SCHEIDEN LASSEN.
CDU for divorce 👏
No idea wer uns laut der der CDU davon abhält aber go off I guess...
Vote Boris for divorce 💪
(do in fact not vote CDU, not even for funsies.)

Me: -drinks 5 espresso to get more alert-
My anxiety: you fool, you absolute buffoon. Have you forgotten the ancient teachings? Have you already forgotten what you painstakingly learned during college?
Me: ....fuck

I'm just so tired of it all.

Ngl in this age of 'Sephora Kids' here and 'child influencers' there, watching a couple of kids play a made up version of hot potato while waiting for the train is really healing to me.
Like the kids are gonna be okay. They can still play make believe and have little inside jokes and they're going to be fine.

Work
At first the job seemed great.
It was fun to do, there was nothing to hate.
But then, to my horror, I had one thing to do:
Interacting with the customer, I had to see it through.
And during that meeting I only had one thing to say:
After all...murder might be okay

My coworkers are amused by my habit of always listening to music (and sitting weirdly) while working.
But the thing is: If I don't listen to music, I start making random noises and shit.
So really, I do it for their sake (not really)
My self control knows no bounds.

I have rotten object permanence, meaning I often do not remember things that I don't interact with regularly. But as soon as I smell something my mind just goes '!!!!!' and remembers the most bizarre things sometimes. I once smelled the strawberry milkshake I often had on vacation when I was young and was hit with the strongest sense of Fernweh + nostalgia.
Anyways lemme know if you can relate or if this is completely foreign to you 👀

My team tried out the teams transcript feature...
I am german. My team is german. We are talking in german. Teams does not know this.
Somehow this fucked up transcript encapsulated what Tumblr conversations sometimes feel like:
A: Was the capital zoo OK?
B: Yeah, zoo daddy foods plant. Got it.
Done.
Ohhh that's one this is.
A: You know, as I mentioned say, they pumped him, doesn't have entered its own in 100 and mission.
C: I just shut off.

It's fucking MAY and I am out here dying of the heat. It's not supposed to be this hot up until August.
It's probably not very hot to a lot of you, but I am NOT build to withstand more than 30°C (86°F for you "Amis") on a regular basis. When I was in elementary school we would get Hitzefrei (heat free) when it got to 35°C because it was considered too hot to be able to concentrate.
I hate heat. A good summer to me is max 25°C (do the maths yourself USA) up to maybe 30° on the hot days in August.
Not 28°C in fucking May.

Still thinking of the time my sleep deprived partner was finishing up their research paper and asked me:
What was the thing you write to cite multiple authors?
To which I answered:
Name and then Et al
A couple of hours later I hear them realise something.
ET AL????? I FUCKING WROTE @ all
To this day @ all lives in my head rent free.
