She has been evicted.

Paris has so many flowers that there are more bees inside Paris than outside Paris.

Although that’s also because of the pesticides used outside Paris.

They’re attracted to electric light, which kills them. They’re not attracted to gaslight, which is one of the reasons people are protesting the replacement of gas lighting in Berlin.

Definitely better than my experience last night, it was a rather larger spider.

An old convent in Venice. It had a single exit, which we found out when the fire alarm went off. It was a very large and high spiral staircase in the middle of the building.

It was 40C with 90 percent humidity. Of course, it did not have AC. Everyone had their window and door open at night and just hoped they wouldn’t get mugged.

Cheap, though.

Women are literally forced to carry babies. And that includes DEAD women.

Keep the windows and curtains/blinds closed during the day, open the windows at night.

My grandma was a millionaire (nobility, rich dad, rich husband). She didn’t have to worry about money whenever she wanted to do/buy something and she could have clothes made. She’s also had a lot of political influence purely because she knew the right people.

She always drove an Opel Kadett, had a 2 bedroom house with an artist’s mezzanine and then a 2 bedroom flat when she could no longer walk the stairs. Could afford a carer every day when she got ill. Didn’t spend a penny on anything ostentatious (that was “common”), spent plenty on travelling around the world.

Her occasional “do you know who I am” attitude made me cringe, but for the rest she was pretty normal, really 🤷.

PS am not rich, she had the audacity to have a ton of kids (and the title went to the eldest son).

Qatar: used slaves to do all the work, Muslim extremist to the core, no culture to speak of. Pakistan: diverse, not as Muslim extremist as people think, interesting culture.

Pasta. It takes pasta dishes from “eh, it’s food” to “this is really good”.
