Julia Klöckner hat angewiesen, dass zur diesjährigen Pride Parade in Berlin keine Regenbogenflagge auf dem Bundestag weht. Nun wurde auch die Teilnahme der Bundesregierung an der Pride zurückgenommen.

I didn't know UCC College Christmas had such a long tradition
Gluttony, gout, drunkenness, fornication, lies and obscenity in Cork (1737). Glad to see standards haven't slipped since.

Remember, man, that thou art dust.

The earl kneels, the ash of the end is written on his brow.

A captain of ships kneels, to be put in mind of a death in a far port, or at home, or on a rock of the sea…

—George Mackay Brown, “Ash Wednesday”
from TRAVELLERS (John Murray, 2013)
