Le plus vieux ministre nommé sous la Ve République précise avoir discuté avec le Premier ministre «deux jours avant», sans que rien ne soit arrêté. «Comment j’ai réagi ? Bah pfff voilà», résume-t-il.

I think strangers are overestimating how much interest I have in their estimated age and their pension pot.

If this link doesn’t ruin your day by guessing your age incorrectly, there’s always the chance your required pension pot will.

And I’m not sure successfully occupying France is quite the boast they think it is.

This is a good point. Aside from all the evil, it shouldn’t be underestimated how bad they were at waging war and quite how terrible they were at governing.

Not at all. I'm fascinated by people I've never interacted with telling me how healthy their pension pot is.

Tough paper round. I hope it had a pension pot.

the subreddits for luxury watches are some of the darkest places on earth

Rolex subreddit post:

My uncle has Alzheimer's and is often forgetful of his possessions. One of them is a Rolex Submariner. Would I be justified in taking and caring for it as my own instead of having it left neglected and forgotten in his jewelry box? Thanks.

Taking up running is great for your mental health.

Every Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday, instead of my mind being flooded with the very real worries of adult life and of existential dread, I spend all day dreading the fact that I have to go for another fucking run later.

Northern Ireland Vs Germany.

A nation previously run by right wing militaristic thugs who believed in their racial purity…vs a nation who have won four World Cups.
