    "Das Schicksal von Nazis ist mir komplett gleichgültig; ob sie hungern, frieren, bettnässen, schlecht träumen usw. geht mich nichts an. Was mich an ihnen interessiert, ist nur eins: daß man sie hindert, das zu tun, was sie eben tun, wenn man sie nicht hindert." (Wiglaf Droste)

    A package of washing powder from our collection. You can still buy "Spee" in Germany. Their advertising character is a fox, in German we also call penny pinchers a "Sparfuchs" (saving fox). Don't ask us, why German foxes should be famous for saving money :)

    Die spinnen, die Sachsen.

    Ist künftig jeder, der in Sachsen "Nazis raus!“ ruft, automatisch ein Linksextremist, der mit sofortiger Beobachtung durch den Inlandsgeheimdienst rechnen muss?

    “The biggest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing people to call CSS custom properties ‘variables’.” — I’ve found the quote, but not the source, though.

    Alle Linien von Franz Kafkas Physiognomie finden sich in der Formensprache des frühen VW Käfer. Ein Aspekt, der in der Kafka-Forschung bisher unterging.

    I captured this scene on my way to this morning. This was a great reminder to always have my camera ready, even while rushing to catch a train. 😊 More conference photos tomorrow, stay tuned.

    “You can use `gap` only in Firefox”, says . Unfortunately, you can’t because Chromia have aliased `gap` to `grid-gap` & lie on `@⁠supports()` claiming yep despite not supporting `gap` for flexbox. They have fucked it up, making `gap` unusuble in any browser.
