Just like everybody else does.

They moan about it being too hot, too cold, too wet or too dry for the season and blame it on the “Climate Crisis.”

How Germany manages extreme heat and climate change – The next heat wave has been forecast in Germany. How is a country known for its lack of air conditioning preparing?

This summer has seen some hot days in Germany. Very hot. In early July, temperatures in Hamburg and Cologne soared to 37 degrees Celsius (98.6 F). Some areas recorded temperatures close to 40 C.

In earlier years, such temperatures were not typically recorded until early August — a development that experts attribute to climate change. On radio, television and social media, people were urged to stay at home, especially during the middle of the day.

And in two months it will be a rained out summer

It’s the never-ending cycle of “climate crisis” hysteria.

Not enough rain: How can Germany cope with drought?

This spring was one of the driest on record in Germany. Agriculture, groundwater, and even retail prices are suffering. Plants and ecosystems are already in drought stress. What can be done?

Looks like the death cults win.

Douglas Murray has been blacklisted in Berlin – as a British writer living in Berlin, I recently attempted something that now passes for quietly provocative: I tried to buy a book. Not just any book, but On Democracies and Death Cults, the latest from Douglas Murray.

“Extreme weather”

There’s lots of snow and ice in Germany right now. In the winter OMG (this is where you say “but weather isn’t climate”)!

Why wasn’t the government prepared for this?

Germany braces for extreme weather and disruptions – Forecasters warned of treacherous conditions that could cause flight and other delays. Meanwhile the UK and US are also dealing with severe wintry conditions.

Come on, GÜNTHER!

I mean, GUNTHER.

You can do this.

WWE Bash in Berlin match card & rumors – Everything WWE has planned, so far, for its next major premium live event.

World Heavyweight Championship: GUNTHER (c) vs. Randy Orton – They’re using the controversial finish from the King of the Ring tournament final — the same victory that set up GUNTHER winning the championship at SummerSlam — to justify doing this rematch. It works.

German of the day: “Eine große Sache”

That means a big thing, a big development.

The brown methane eaters – “A big deal”: Spectacular discovery on tree bark raises new climate hope.

Microbes living in tree bark can “eat up” methane, a gas that is particularly harmful to the climate – that much was already known in research. But a new study now shows: The microbes’ hunger for methane is far greater than assumed…

While it has long been known that trees remove carbon dioxide (CO 2) from the atmosphere through photosynthesis, thereby buffering man-made climate change, this new research reveals a surprising additional benefit of forests. Until now, it was assumed that the soil was the only terrestrial sink for methane.

No, he didn’t

He didn’t “intentionally use a banned Nazi slogan.”

If you watched the clip, and were fair in your judgement, you would agree. If you want to say the words “everything for Germany” is a Nazi slogan you can, of course (they used it), but something tells me uttering these words didn’t originate with them, nor are they the exclusive property of Adolf Hitler & Co.

You don’t have to like this guy or his politics or his political party to see that “the system” is out to get him (and them). The court system has been weaponized here, in other words. Boy oh boy it sure is good to know that that type of thing could never happen in US-Amerika, right?

German far-right leader intentionally used banned Nazi slogan, court rules – Alternative for Germany politician Björn Höcke was fined for uttering a phrase employed by Hitler’s storm troopers.

A leading politician for the far-right Alternative for Germany party (AfD) has been convicted by a German court of using a banned Nazi slogan — a decision that is unlikely to dissuade the party’s core supporters in its eastern strongholds.

Björn Höcke, who heads the AfD in the eastern German state of Thuringia, was fined €13,000 for closing a 2021 campaign speech with the phrase: “Everything for Germany!”

Those were the days…

When we could smirk our smirk with impunity.

But then the real world happened. Again.

Germany Should Have Listened to Trump – He was right about Berlin’s self-defense and risky energy dependence on Russia.

The lower house of Germany’s Parliament voted to legalize the recreational use of cannabis last week. It was a timely move. Germany’s leadership class is going to need all the mellow it can find in a world that isn’t going Germany’s way.
