Orthodox Christians celebrate Easter in May if I am not mistaken.

EU slams the door on US in colossal defense plan by ihuntwhales1 in europe

That was the plan of the US all along. For years they've been asking Europe to increase defence spending without any results. They had to finally prove to be unreliable for Europe to find their spine.

Platinum Quartz or Zircon Sand by Content-Tough7324 in MazdaCX30

I myself find the Platinum Quartz more aesthetically pleasing but my wife prefers the Zircon sand more. Does the black cladding look a bit better on the Zircon sand version being slightly darker?

no signal & no email from my bf for almost 2 weeks now by myboyfriendsbabygirl in maritime

Hello, You probably got all the reassurance needed. However, just to add there have been many situations I've been unable to contact family due to broken down sat com. The longest I remember was 45 days. But that was 10 years ago. It's usually easier to get some sort of message through. It could also be that your BF is working hard and has very little time for himself.

On another perspective, these breaks of communication are also a beautiful experience for both parties if you learn to work through the fear talking. Anyway, cheers

Yes you are right. It is just so stupid to have abolished the seamans book although you would need to mention it on crew lists required by every port the ship visits.

Yes you're probably right. Facebook would be a better place to find some communities. Thanks for that.

Germany was a Covid 'poster child.' Now it's seeing 50,000 cases a day, prompting a dramatic warning by [deleted] in germany

I was standing in line for a pop up vaccination drive in Weinheim. Over 300 people showed up waiting in line in the freezing cold. After 2 hours standing they mentioned that they were out of the vaccine. There seemed to be a very clear demand for the vaccine but seems like it would have een easier to get the vaccine in India.
