I read it as "Weirdos have all kinds of crazy kinks. If you somehow devised an impenetrable box, there would absolutely be people who would pay for the experience to have artillery shot at them while they are inside said impenetrable box."

I can see how that post was unclear because they used the wrong prefix for negation.

Windmills have gotten up to 5MW onshore, with rotordurchmesser upwards of 200m, do you even realize how many birds you need to lubricate them? Every Spatz counts in are fight against climate change.

I thought about this. It should be trivialy easy to add some kind of cage around the rotors to protect birds from being swatted out of the sky. People who complain about Windpower should be forced to pay an extra tax to pay for this.

Had a nice run-in with german bureaucracy today.

My parents have a hornet's nest in the edge of their roof, directly above the path that leads around the house into the garden, three meters from the ground.

Since hornets are endangered, you're not allowed to do poo poo, except get a Fachmann check the nest and then ask the Umweltschutzbehörde for an exemption to either relocate the hive or, if that does not seem feasible, kill them (the hornets, not my parents).
If you tamper with it yourself, you can potentially be fined up to €50.000.

Turns out the requirements for the exemption are quite high.
Schädlingsbekämpfer will come by tomorrow and check it out, but he already alluded to the fact that he might not be able to help.

The nest is right next to my mother's kitchen window and maybe 4 meters from a balcony and a terrace door.

Oh, did I mention that my mother is highly allergic to bees and wasps?
Like "get an anaphylactic shock and die" allergic.
She hasn't tried hornets yet, and frankly, at 82 years old and with a pacemaker and defibrillator in her chest, I'd rather not have her give it a shot.

If we get told tomorrow that "Eh, you gotta wait until October when the hive has died out, then we can plug the cracks" and my mother is basically put under house arrest and stressed out because of those little fuckers until then, I might become a Querdenker.

You get a ladder and a beekeeper uniform and remove the nest in the Dämmerung. You dont need to kill them, you just get an old Bienenstock and relocate them in the garden / at a waldrand / give them away. Hornets are peaceful as gently caress and wont sting unless caught in the hair or in the clothing

They are inside the roof, going in and out through a 3x1 cm opening.
I was hoping the pest control guy would vacuum them out and relocate them, but nope, he's not touching that, "because if I don't get the queen out as well, the hive will die".

We will have to wait until it's getting colder and activity of the hive ceases (and most of the hornets die off anyway), then cover up all cracks and bröckeligen Putz thoroughly, all the while hoping they don't fly into any hair or clothing and kill my mom until then. 🤞🤞🤞

So the Antisemitismusbeauftragte der Bundesrefierung suggested Heilwanger should visit KZ Dachau to show how he is not a Nazi. Because blatant political propaganda is all they can come up with instead of getting rid of Heilwanger as they should.

Only the Gedenkstätte Dachau doesn't want him and told him to stay away because they don't want to be abused for political purposes. Good on them, at least some people are reacting correctly to this mess.

How the hell is the government supposed to force the member of a different party to go away? Hit squads to take him out, Russia-style?

Well, they being his own party throwing him out of course and Söder etc distancing themselves. Instead of trying to rehabilitate him in the eyes of the people by parading him through a KZ Gedenkstätte so he can assure anyone he isn't the rear end in a top hat he is.

I assume the Antisemitismusbeauftragter just didn't think it through. Going "ey, vielleicht sollte der Nazi sich nochmal das KZ im Detail anschauen" is not a bad take. The problem is that the right is so strong that they love this idea because it is a fantastic Deckmäntelchen for claiming not to be Nazis.

GABA ghoul

Can't blame them for not wanting to be instrumentalized by this rear end in a top hat for campaigning purposes and help him get elected.

Had he come out and admitted to the pamphlet and Hitler enthusiasm, it would be different. But he chose to try to worm his way out of it.
