EU-based GenX, ran out of fucks more than 20 years ago. Weird mix of a Pol. Sci. education that morphed into an ICTSEC career.
Happily married for the last 21 years, proud dad of two.

Basically the quietness.
Being able to go in our garden (a luxury at the time btw, to have your own big outdoor space) and not hear any car passing, just the nature sounds.

You think you can compare to an ER nurse?! ‘Cause I’ve known some of them and I tell you: you don’t. Nobody does, even MD’s.

And they don’t care because
a) the US doesn’t recognise the ICJ AND
b) the US implemented under George W. Bush the “The Hague Invasion Act” that allows its President to use any force it deems right to free any US official, soldier or ally that’d be detained by the ICj.
War crimes ain’t US crimes 🤷🏻♂️

The left chest strap in the half-coloured panel is doing a -lot- of heavy lifting. And I say this in the most platonic and chaste way, btw.

Yeah I know the feeling. Wanted to buy some coffee and my hand went to my usual Lavazza Qualita Oro. Then I noticed the price for the first time in a while: €8,99.
For a 250g pack of coffee.
No wonder my grocery bills are getting stratospheric.

Everyone calls it ANH these days
I was born on 16/11/73. I was almost 4 when it was released on 27th October, 1977 in Mons, Belgium.
I went to see it with my parents in the (long gone) “Cinema des Galleries”.
Shut the fuck up you moron.
