Did you just name your cat the German word for cat?

I know someone with a cat named Kitty, I think this is a thing.

I think that dog may be suffering from what the professionals call "being a silly goober".

A huge amount of Finnish "expert" opinions about trans people are likely going to be bullshit. Generally this country is way more conservative than people seem to realize, so eg. the standard of care when it comes to gender affirming stuff is just atrociously bad. At least you don't need to get sterilized anymore when you change your legal gender, we managed to change that last year…

Cops can't be trusted to investigate hate crimes, because they more than likely support the criminal

Are you having a stroke or am I?

The idea that Europe isn't militarily self-sufficient is, frankly, horseshit. The US just has such an incredibly outsized military that anything will look "insufficient"

So, I fell in to a wiki-hole (help) – so far I only know that they were cranky about how the English Reformation didn't go far enough, and coincidentally that Oliver Cromwell was a Puritan, but no specifics yet

He has to say that, though. Saying "if Trump wins, Nato is hosed" wouldn't sound as, well… resolute

This isn't what not giving a fuck looks like. He clearly gives enough of a fuck to lie about this stuff publicly

Thanks for the explanation! I knew about the Puritans in the sense that I knew they were influential in the early days of the US and were known for being… err, pretty uptight, but that's honestly all I could remember from high school history classes I took about 3000 years ago.
