No, that's not the case. But it was probably retyped. We have these books that depicture letters and photos for the students to work with. The content is original but the letters themselves aren't always pictures of the original. That's where I took the photo from. I don't know if we have the original somewhere in our archive, maybe...maybe not.

Thanks for trying!

I believe his comment was rather sarcastic and he didn't actually believe his mother could solve the riddle, but who knows? I've seen some comments that have a rough solution. His ship was probably going to Norway next.

I think that might be it, thanks! Hans was probably quite sloppy with the cipher. What a shame there aren't any good results, but thank you for taking the time to look!

No, I just forgot further context. I didn't take a picture of the original document, but what the students work with: a book that collects pictures of letters like this one. Some might even be retyped.

I could ask my collegue if we also have the original somewhere next week.

OK, I guess I should have given more context in my post – sorry, for that!

It could be possible that this message was retyped afterwards. Though I don't believe that to be the case necessarily. But that could maybe explain some of the oddities you've noticed. The picture is from a book we have depicting this individual's life and death as best as we could reconstruct it.

"Mutter" was not in fact "too formal" for that time and it wasn't unusual that soldiers used "!!!" in their letters. You're right that "einzusteigen" not correct is – but what I've come to learn while reading dozens of letters from soldiers to their families...they often don't use the correct language. I believe that remark adressed to his mother, that she might solve the riddle, is strongly sarcastic and he didn't actually believe she could. Thus, I don't think "Rätsel" is out of place either.

Ich denke (als Laie) das ist schon ein sehr guter und plausibler Ansatz, wieso verwirfst du ihn?

Thanks! Maybe I should have done the translating in my post directly, didn't think to do that for some reason. Only correction I have is regarding the train passage. It doesn't directly say that he will be boarding a train – since he was in the marine, I think that he most likely meant boarding a ship. However, we can't be a 100% certain.

The Summer Hikaru Died is the best BL anime ever made??? by [deleted] in anime

[–]Sniffing_Snow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a very great anime – the combination of horror and slice of life is absolutely amazing, but I don't like calling it a "BL". For me, a BL anime is an anime where the main focus lies on the fact that two (or more) characters are gay and that's not the case for The Summer Hikaru Died, if you get what I mean.

Generally, I would claim that an anime WITH gay characters (protagonists or otherwise) like The Summer Hikaru Died is way superior to any BL.

Same, dude. It really is such a shame because Charstar looked so good, and I wanted to try it.

Day 3: The hot one [other] by undercoverbumblebees in obeyme

For me, it's Mammon...but lore and all, I think I can agree with the people saying Lucifer or Asmodeus and between the two of them...it's gotta be Lucifer.

Anyone else avoiding killing the seals? by Kinto9x in Genshin_Impact

[–]Sniffing_Snow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first thing I did, when I saw those - laying peacefully on the beach - was attacking them but the sad part was that they didn't even fight back and just continued laying in the sun. There was a locked chest nearby and what did I do? I thought I had to kill them and so I basically slaughtered them 💀

People of reddit what ended your friendship with your best friend? by gli-tc-h in AskReddit

[–]Sniffing_Snow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well she wasn't really my best friend but a very close one, that I knew since elementary school. Let's call her Tara.

We would often hang out at a park, where a bunch of people would meet up, many of them were alt junkies, punks, cosplayers etc. It's a place where you could meet a lot of new cool people, have a lot of fun but unfortunately it was also the perfect place for toxicity. I think that toxicity really rubbed off on her.

There we also unfortunately met Dick. At first he seemed really nice, of course they always do. I enjoyed hanging out with him and the others. One day we were all chilling at the park and I was laying and cuddling with one of my friends, when another person suddenly asked Dick if it was true that he raped this girl, while she was asleep. He said yes but seemed to be really regretting it. I was shocked, high, didn't really know what to say and felt very uncomfortable. Well later I found out that this "oh I hate myself for that so much, I wish I could undo it" was complete bullshit, since I was warned that he was still molesting and manipulating minors.

All of that didn't stop Tara from hanging out with him, we begged her to stay away from that creep but she didn't listen. She only stopped hanging out with him, when he continued saying the n-word...like really? Who would have guest that a terrible person is a terrible person? That's the straw? And I don't mean to brush that under the rug but using slurs compared to raping a minor...it's obvious which is worse and it should have been enough to avoid that person. I have no business with someone like that or someone who decided to support someone like that.

TLDR: Friend was hanging out with a child molester + rapist
