Die EU wird an ihren Regulierungen scheitern.

Just finished Season 5 of Southland... and I'm still annoyed. An outstanding series with some of the most authentic writing and performances in a cop drama, only to be left with an unresolved cliffhanger. Meanwhile, there's no shortage of modern shows chasing trends and identity politics, yet gems like Southland get abandoned. As a Firefly fan, I guess I should be used to brilliant series being cut short before they get the ending they deserve.

Willst du nun aber nach so großartigen Dingen trachten, so bedenke, daß du sie nicht bloß mit mittelmäßigem Ernste angreifen, sondern manches gänzlich aufgeben, anderes einstweilen hintansetzen mußt. Wenn du jene Dinge erstrebst, gleichzeitig aber in hohen Ämtern stehen oder reich sein willst, so wirst du wahrscheinlich diese letzteren Güter nur um so weniger erreichen, weil du eben zugleich nach den ersteren begehrst. Ganz sicher aber wirst du dasjenige ganz verfehlen, woraus allein Glück und Freiheit entsteht. - Epiktet

So schaut Sozialismus aus. In den Alters- und Pflegeheimen gibt es in den Zimmern keine Klimanlagen. Kein Wunder also das in den Krankenhäusern mehr los ist. Lösung, es wird kein Alkohol mehr verkauft. Demnächst in diesem Theater. BTW Falls irgendsoein Klimahysteriker was von Klimawandel sabbelt, schenk ihm ein lächeln und sprich: "Ich glaube an den Windradgemachten Klimawandel." 😂😉

GM - HODL Don't Quit When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, when the road you're trudging seems all uphill, when the funds are low and the debts are high, and you want to smile but you have to sigh, when care is pressing you down a bit - rest if you must, but don't you quit. Life is queer with its twists and turns. As everyone of us sometimes learns. And many a fellow turns about when he might have won had he stuck it out. Don't give up though the pace seems slow - you may succeed with another blow. Often the goal is nearer than it seems to a faint and faltering man; Often the struggler has given up when he might have captured the victor's cup; and he learned too late when the night came down, how close he was to the golden crown. Success is failure turned inside out - the silver tint of the clouds of doubt, and when you never can tell how close you are, it may be near when it seems afar; so stick to the fight when you're hardest hit - it's when things seem worst, you must not quit. — Commonly attributed to Edgar A. Guest (1881–1959)
