There's nothing you can do - you do what you can. Got it, just do nothing?

I got my first extra hour the day after I was born.

Edit: I was wrong, it turns out there was no DST in my country when I was born. So I definitely banked it.

I was thinking, I was in Berlin last week and didn't see much trams, I'm not even sure I saw any tram. It turns out I only visited places bordering on the tram network.

I know, since I replied to this:

I think they’re saying that children who are born in the new country should be counted as foreigners. Which is kinda fucked up but yea

Looking up the article the baseline is French and English I'd say. So it might be biased, but I didn't read the article and even if I did, I'm a chemical engineer so what do I know of this field.

It would actually depend on where in Germany you are going, but since the first Turkish "Gastarbeiter" (among others, quite some nationalities) came to West Germany over 60 years ago, it is not uncommon to meet people of Turkish descent there. (East Germany not so much, they had Vietnamese workers but mostly deported them back to Vietnam after the re-unification.) Combine these Gastarbeiter (and the three generations after them) with a declining native birth rate and an influx of asylum seekers, and it could well be 40-50% all together.

The big question is what the problem is here, and the answer is that the far right wants it to be a problem so they can come to power. So they'll bloody make it a problem and try and sabotage any solutions. These last lines are my personal opnion obviously.

To be honest, as a Dutchman I think our current right-wing government parties will decide that their dislikes for "the environment" outweigh any economical advantages.

"The environment" is in qoutes because they've separated the word from the meaning, to them the inveronment is an abstract thing that "left" people talk about. Also, not actual left, just all the people who don't agree with them.

LOL. Also, it wouldn't be my ass since I'm the donut stacker.

Calorie restriction is not the same as not eating.

Depends on the thickness of the donut and the butt cheeks. So probably less than one.

I'd rather not stop eating...
