Twilight was sold in Germany under the dad-joke-level punny title Bis(s) zum Morgengrauen ("Until dawn / Bite at dawn"). They kept it up for the sequels Bis(s) zur Mittagsstunde (noon), Bis(s) zum Abendrot (sunset), Bis(s) zum Ende der Nacht (end of the night)

To be fair, I'm not blind and I'm not entirely sure I "see" things in my dreams. I don't remember my dreams very often and when I do, it's more knowing what happened and less images. Then again, I'm pretty sure I'm somewhere on the aphantasia spectrum. But my point is, it's really hard to tell and thus to study.

Chinese fast fashion items have many times been tested to exceed thresholds for chemicals forbidden in the EU. I won't risk my health buying them.

Unless they work for Microsoft. Teams has been showing � instead of ä for the caller's name in the popup when someone calls for several weeks now. It didn't use to do that before. I don't think they care anymore.

If you have never mixed yoghurt with garlic and tahini, you are severely missing out.

Great, now I want to eat falafel.

 

Part of a fairy ring in our garden. The difference in grass growth between where the mushrooms grew last year vs this year is especially visible this year.
