1. Race from yesterday at Nuremburg 'ring'.....ended up with some Last Generation activists making a break on the track.
Cops and security eventually handled the problem. Humble opinion....you would be taking a huge amount of risk for your life.
2. Berlin public pool reached a stage Sunday late afternoon....cops had to be called over a brawl at the pool.
3. 'Heat-stunted' is a comment that comes to mind. Over the past two months....lot of hype by the German Health Ministry and the two public TV networks (ARD/ZDF).
Yes, summer has arrived and this massive threat of HEAT has been drilled down into....discussed each day. You get the impression over the past hundred years....it's never been 36, 37 or 38 degrees C in Germany.
It's generally always been this hot, and worse. If you ask any German over the age of sixty....they will give you ten different methods of cooling off, or handling the heat. The Ministry and networks seem to have forgotten past history.
My advice? Stay out of the sun as much as possible. Drink plenty of fluids (not beer or wine). Mix lemon and cucumber slices in the water. Close your windows/shutters around 10 AM on a really hot day, and reopen around 8 PM. Don't stand around and wait for the government or public TV to save you. Nothing new here.....same old crap for past 10,000 years.
4. Lot of commentary now existing over the Giessen festival for the Eritrean people. Some pointing out that the folks who organized the fest (running it)....are connected back to the dictatorship in Eritrea. German authorities are likely to investigate this angle.
5. Biden offering a 'deal' for Turkey to accept Sweden into NATO....involves selling at some reduced rate....fighter jets. People are skeptical of the deal working.
