For me, one of the most special places on the walking tour along the wall.

"No AI" fast becoming the "pesticides and additives-free" of our digital universe.

R.I.P. Ike Willis Isaac (Ike) Willis (b. 1955) was one of the most enduring members of Frank Zappa’s later bands, bringing voice, guitar, humor, and personality to a highly demanding catalogue. ⠀ Remembered for Joe’s Garage, voice of Joe, and for work on Tinseltown Rebellion & You Are What You Is.

Pope Leo “may not be Trump’s greatest opponent, as some of the president’s critics had hoped,” Francis X. Rocca argues. “But neither is he the quiet bystander that the president’s supporters might have wished him to be.” theatln.tc/ARoFjFUY 📸: Manon Cruz / Reuters

Rare image of a stork delivering a baby!

Thank God!

Today, 49 years ago, the deadliest incident in aviation history. A KLM 747 collides with a PanAm 747 at a foggy Tenerife airport.

We are proud to announce the new book from prominent writer and historian, Ian Buruma. Stay Alive is an astonishing account of life amid a great city’s descent into utter annihilation. “Beautifully written and deeply researched.” —Gary Bass www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/723960...

They say "hang it in the Louvre". So we did #princeandrew

March 27, 1936: Portraits of the Führer are raised on official buildings across Berlin. This one at the Potsdamer Railway Station reads "Freedom - Peace"

Bill Bramhall cartoon.

A rare, beautiful, and touching documentary about a teacher in Putin's Russia who resists all sorts of absurdities imposed on education. A true hero! Moreover, it offers a glimpse into how the war in Ukraine affects the youth of a small provincial town. A must-see! youtu.be/9150MCMSrgc?...

Laten we als Europa dit heel hard zingen. En net als de Canadezen … hebben aan die oranje clown. Ook als het wat het kost. m.youtube.com/watch?v=4BpF...

An English rising star: clown, actress, and theater maker Frankie Thompson as 9-year-old Jacob Rees-Mogg in the Soho Theatre. Hilarious! 🚀

Iran…🙏

A swimming pool as a work of art that you can enter. You stand at the bottom, underwater, where you can breathe normally. And without getting wet (and drowning). Swinming Pool (2016), Leandro Erlich. Voorlinden museum & gardens, Wassenaar, The Netherlands.

Thankfully, this was the very last time you were allowed to set off your own fireworks in the Netherlands. The beautiful and characteristic Vondelkerk in Amsterdam was one of the last victims of this ridiculous "tradition." Sad!

German humor, satire, and nihilism... The Party (Die Partei) with party leader Thomas Hintner. A curious phenomenon.

The funniest movie of 2025: Paul Thomas Anderson's "One Battle After Another." Starring the brilliant Sean Penn as Colonel Steven J. Lockjaw. "Semen demon." Go see it!

Frank Zappa would have turned 85 today. That ‘learned musical genious’, here at work in Ulm, West Germany, in 1978. One of the best band formations he had.

A lovely tribute to Rob Reiner in AI. (©️deborahrobinson636).

RIP Tonny Eyk (1940-2025). Oa. componist van de legendarische Studio Sport-leader (1974).

Berlin by night.

RIP Rob Reiner. “These go to 11”. Epic!

Rob Reiner, who starred in “All in the Family,” and directed films including “When Harry Met Sally …” died at 78. His death, along with that of his wife, was announced by Mayor Karen Bass of Los Angeles. Officials said they were investigating the deaths as homicides. trib.al/KsglMTL

"Calibri" is apparently woke, according to the Trump administration. Madness reigns supreme.

Radiohead in Berlin. A cosmic show with “the bards of the apocalypse who returned for a brutal bacchanal”.

RIP Martin Parr, a great photographer.

I'm not a fan of religious candles, but I'm happy to make an exception for composer, bandleader, guitarist, and satirist Frank Zappa (1940-1993). This musical genius would have turned 85 today. RIP Frank!

Saw an amazing little exhibition at the new Petri archaeology museum in Berlin - "degenerate" art confiscated by the Nazis and excavated in 2010 during construction of a metro station.

www.bbc.com/news/article... #Snipertourism. The world is an absurd place to live. And if you think you know all the absurdities... it can always get even more absurd!

Aangezien vrouwen gemiddeld 12% minder verdienen dan mannen voor hetzelfde werk, wil ik graag even alle vrouwen bedanken dat zij de rest van 2025 al hun werk in principe gratis doen! Lekker bezig vrouwen!

“Wat kan je dus beter niet doen? “ Vroeg ik de kinders. “Achter iemand aan lopen in een groepje” Aldus de jongste. 😇 #groepje #politiek #Jesus #apostel

Today is November 9th, a German date. Horrific things and beautiful events happened on this day. Books were written about it. It was also the birthday of my partly German father, who died two years ago. I miss you, Dad!
