Just go for it, so long as you aren’t overtly rude you’ll have minimal issues (hard to do, in my experience Germans are quite polite). Few people will care at all and those that do probably won’t tell you to your face which is for the best for everyone anyway.

Assuming you’re going to visit as a tourist most places you will be at will be fine for both of you.

Also check out Atlas Obscura and Wikivoyage if you haven’t they are both cool resources for getting around and finding things to do

Most places will have more stuff in the air in the eveming. Pollution, dust etc.

Oh gotcha I’ve done that before just didn’t know the term. Thanks!

What is sideloading?

Santa Ana winds are a well known phenomenon out there but I imagine that strong is fairly rare and notable. Large fires will suck in tremendous amounts of air as the hot air rises up. Those fires are burning a massive area

The fire bombings of cities in WW2 created similar firestorms. I remember a history book describing the winds being strong enough to send bodies tumbling through the streets like leaves.

Backpack EDC like, changes you man

It generally means I’m more in the middle of the road.

I like that marijuana is becoming legalized. I also want more responsible gun ownership. I want people to enjoy gay rights and freedom of religion as they see fit. I want a smaller less bureaucratic federal govt while also keeping a capable military. I want a good economy and action to mitigate climate change. I want very poor and homeless people to be cared for without ecouraging them to do nothing about it.

Basically I have something to piss everyone off

Constructive and condecending are two different things. Some people simply love to flaunt their pros and trash our cons.

I am more centrist with mildly right leaning views, but I play dnd with people that are quite left leaning. We respect each other’s perspectives and differences but otherwise get along just fine. There are divides, mainly boiling down to city vs rural but reality often isn’t as polarized as the news and comments will have you believe.

I’m willing to answer any questions you might have here or in DMs

Can you BELIEVE rage bait gets likes?

I’m gonna stay in relatively decent shape, shave my head and take my future kids trick or treating as Agent 47.

Best part is it won’t matter what I wear I just need a barcode on my head.

Shorts and socks are the forbidden combo

Reminded me of this yt vid

Possibly including the start of world war 3.

Always has been. The nukes have been there pointing at each other for decades. Now more people are realising that the cold war never really ended and war isn’t just a thing that happens in far away places.

We used to watch the ball drop but it’s gotten old over time. So we decided to make it a big movie night. Make some food, have some drinks and enjoy the evening with family.

That way they can’t fuck up their legacy like so many public figures do. It’s better to have them die first before giving them sainthood, statues or other long term praise

He wanted a good plot arc leading up to robots not just starting with robots right off the rip

average re**itor

Museums?

Yes those people do

And then there’s a ton of people that have guns, train when they can and hope they never have to use their skills outside of the range or competitions. We never ever hear about them because they are normal people

If you like guns as a technology Open Source Defense is a good newsletter imo. They don’t delve into politics thankfully but look at how laws are implemented, improving safety at scale etc
