I’d somehow like to put this in an extra “German Peculiarities” article, but the award-winning chef Sarah Wiener plays a role in this topic and she’s Austrian. She discovered a problem, which is more serious than whether all families are able to pay tuition for their children’s schools or at least the teaching materials. She […]

The Magi Astrology Society has for a long time not made any “new discovery”. But the Magi Astrologers meanwhile resurfaced and finally discovered…, no, not another “astrobody”. They this time “discovered” an aspect. Or rather the aspect’s effect, while expecting that readers are already familiar with the names of the aspects. At least the Magi […]

In reality exist only kata (形), which are as arbitrary as the tàolù (套路) of tài-jí-quán (太极拳). So I only mistakenly believed in their value for the transmission of a tradition. But also in their value for teaching how to fight? Some Chinese martial artists would immediately abolish the tàolù (套路) if they could. When […]

The Production Code was inevitable because it reflected the homophobia of the 1950s. Thus has already been proved that the stories told during past decades reflected the conditions, which the society of those historical eras provided. This was true for all other conditions, too. The silver age of comic books was after the Second World […]

Most people go to parties and festivals in order to drink alcohol there. I don’t drink alcohol and even don’t understand this habit. So I usually don’t go to parties or festivals. I also at the St. John Bonfire had no intention to get drunk together with people, who I don’t like. Would this really […]

In a previous article, I already described some background of the World Rhino Day. The article here is a kind of update. A study conducted from 2017 until 2023 revealed that removing the horns of rhinos reduced poaching in the Krüger National Park by seventy-eight percent, while prosecuting poachers had no effect. Both is easily […]

Spain in last April suffered a mysterious blackout. You probably heard about the case, but not about the investigation. Despite some things remain unclear, I have some details. A big commercial photovoltaic power plant in the region of Badajoz in the southwest of Spain on April, 28th in 2025 supplied 250 MW into the grid, […]

In the second addendum to ‘How to Attain Superpowers’, I described a way to refine your ki (気). But it is a lie. No, not I lied! Debunking myths belongs to the goals of this blog and if I told lies, then I would sabotage this goal. The martial art teacher from the anime series […]

Dejan Djurdjevic has articles, in which he explains that blocks indeed are effective, on his blog. Many people, in particular combat sportsmen, seemingly aren’t aware of the effectiveness of blocking an attack. This is very astounding and really explains a lot! Dejan Djurdjevic stresses that he uses the word block only colloquially and it rarely […]

In ‘Superman’ and ‘Superman II’ from the 1980s, Jimmy Olsen is depicted as an average North American. I disliked this. In the ‘Supergirl’ tv series, Jimmy Olsen for the sake of Wokeness turned black. I disliked this, too. Jimmy Olsen is an Irish redhead and there’s no reason to change this! And in particular not […]
