Today's #shave done with "Indian Flavour" a shaving #soap made by Meißner Tremonia, a soap maker from Dortmund/Germany. It's got a nice scent of citrus and a range of exotic spices. The lather was thick and my skin felt well for hours. https://octodon.social/media/ipjzTDnG51822skqCE0 https://octodon.social/media/ireERvKm1pH0lanBu1g
Happy #Easter everyone! 🐣🐇

Today the Cathedral St. Lambertus in Immerath (NRW, Germany) has been demolished for soft coal opencast mining, against protests of local residents. Cultural monuments (and climate protection) are way less appreciated than company #profits.

Forecasts for 1907. These two figures are not communicating with one another. The lady is receiving an amatory message, and the gentleman some racing results. #Vintage #SciFi #Cartoon

Today I found this book in a big supermarket browsing the #book shelves. To be honest, it was the only more or less promising #fantasy book there. Now it's lying on my night table for bedtime reading. I'm curious about it.
