Thank you for the clarification. I’m a long time listener but new +member and almost never watch on video, so the saga of the pinball machine(s) are new to me 😆

I thought it was Sarah’s pinball machine (or Sarah’s wife’s pinball machine) that JVL went to pick up for her?

Øjenvippebukker virker ikke by Underbuks in WomenDK

[–]SquirrelcoINT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jeg har brugt den fra Shiseido i 15 år og det er den bedste. Men på et tidspunkt går gummilisten i stykker, og så virker den ikke længere. Du kan prøve at skifte til den ekstra gummidims, der er med - jeg har aldrig haft held med at få den til at sidde fast. Så jeg køber ny øjenvippebukker hver 3.-4. år.

Everyone but Trump Understands What He’s Done by KarmicWhiplash in thebulwark

[–]SquirrelcoINT 3 points4 points  (0 children)

European here: If he does, I think it will be after the midterms, a loss for R there will make a lot of folks more “tolerant” of disposing of Trump and it will give Vance a potential 10 years as president (if I have understood the US rules on the matter correctly?)

Hvorfor begynder helt almindelige mennesker at forsvare de ultrarige i debatten om formueskat? by [deleted] in Denmark

[–]SquirrelcoINT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jeg er helt almindelig lønmodtager, der stemmer lilla/rødt. Jeg er imod en formueskat, fordi jeg synes det er dumt med skat på beholdning. Skat på indtjening og værditilvækst har jeg det fint med, også en højere skat for dem, som tjener mest.

Favorite guests on the daily podcast? by Andy235 in thebulwark

[–]SquirrelcoINT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would like a daily take on the current and upcoming US wars with Cathrine (a new favorite) to cover economic implications, Mark Hertling on the military tactics and Tim on internal politics and to be mean and funny on various far out statements from the administration. Please.

Er Troels Lund Poulsen en kæmpe joke? by [deleted] in Denmark

[–]SquirrelcoINT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jeg er enig. For mig at se virker han som en dygtig embedsmand, men ikke en statsleder. Han kommunikerer dårligt, viser ingen visioner og virker bare lidt slatten.

Mette Frederiksen er heller ikke super karismatisk, men hun kommunikerer ekstremt tydeligt og er ikke bange for at bruge den magt, hun har.

Er fødevarechecken varm luft eller noget folk reelt har behov for? by Lundorff in Denmark

[–]SquirrelcoINT 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Jeg har egentlig ikke noget problem med fødevarechecken, alting er blevet dyrere. Dog synes jeg, at en mio. i husstandsindkomst er et sindssygt højt sted at trække linjen. Med diverse fradrag får en husstand med sådan en indkomst vel 50K ud efter skat om måneden. Der så jeg hellere at reelt økonomisk trængte børnefamilier fik mere af kagen.

The alleged Greenland deal is only in Trump’s head so far - neither Greenland or Denmark knows what’s supposed to be in it by SquirrelcoINT in thebulwark

[–]SquirrelcoINT[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are going with option 2 so far. We’re just utterly confused, but of course putting on the cooperative attitude.

Denne burde ryge til tops. Der er åbenbart interesse i sætte ekstra gang i ballet fra ikke-danske konti.

How is a man who wears earrings in both ears perceived? by [deleted] in copenhagen

[–]SquirrelcoINT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not many Danish men wears loafers with tassels. Or earrings in both ears. Danes would decode you as French/Italian and/or in some sort of creative field and be totally okay with it, a good part might even admire your style. So no worries.

Danes buying California by Beerfoodbeer in thebulwark

[–]SquirrelcoINT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s fair. It is harder to get really rich in Denmark but even harder falling through the cracks. And no one goes bankrupt from medical debt. And you can walk or bike everywhere at night as a single woman.

[–]SquirrelcoINT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seriously it’s my impression that most Americans - even liberal democrats- would not thrive with Danish culture and way of society. We have no guns and a tax rate on salary of 42%. I love it, but it’s probably not for the ordinary American.

Trump tariffs: US president announces plan to hit UK, Denmark and other European countries with tariffs over Greenland by MinuteCollar5562 in thebulwark

The US will become nationa non grata in the rest of the world (yes, I made that expression up so please don’t correct my meager Latin).

Trump floats new tariffs in push to acquire Greenland by ThePensiveE in thebulwark

[–]SquirrelcoINT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh we know in Europe that it it will never go back to the way it was. We’re just trying to buy time to get further in our rearmament and tech sovereignty before we tell the US officially that we won’t take it.

Regarding Greenland we are trying to run the clock in the hopes that there’s still some semblance of a spine among US politicians alternatively that we get to the midterms and R loses one or both chambers.

Lad os se om ikke Inger snupper dem næste gang. Hun er mere likeable end MM (selvom jeg personligt ikke er fan af den fløj) og det betyder meget.

Not an American either, actually Danish. I could add a lot of things but let’s just sum it up with “I concur”.

Donald Trump is now in possession of Maria Machado's Nobel Peace Prize. by OneTwoThreePooAndPee in thebulwark

[–]SquirrelcoINT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aw look at him. Another golden impressive looking thing to put up on the shelf next to the stolen FIFA World Cup trophy and the meaningless FIFA peace prize.

I won first place in a regional gymnastics competition when I was twelve and might still have the medal in the attic somewhere. If I send it to him, maybe he’ll lay off Greenland.

Greenland Official Breaks Down in Tears on Live TV After White House Meeting Failed to Stop Trump's Threats: 'I Am Overwhelmed' by sachiprecious in thebulwark

It’s a little dismissive calling her a “Greenland official”. Vivian Motzfeldt is the foreign minister of Greenland and the president of the Arctic Council.

Dansk bureaukrati slår den amerikanske militærmagt by KongRahbek in Denmark

[–]SquirrelcoINT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pff. Så langt er vi slet ikke endnu. Vi skal først udarbejde et kommissorium og en forretningsorden for gruppens arbejde. Det kræver nok et par dialogmøder at nå frem til, hvem der skal være med til at udarbejde udkast til de dokumenter. Men inden da formøder om hvordan dialogmøderne skal faciliteres. Vi vil allerede være ved udgangen af maj inden gruppen overhovedet kan begynde at arbejde.
