Oh wow, such sparkling foreign relations.

Glorious Leaders visiting each other. Well, at least one visits the other.
Should be in the Syria war thread, since this thing is highly related to Ukraine. With all the ammo Koryo supplies Russia with, and Russia reciprocating with tech and whatnot.
Frankly Russia is the only friend in the region, for China isn't just a friend, but a threat as well. If anyone could take over - if they want directly - that would be China.

Article says stuff liek:
>Kim Jong Un and Putin took an open limousine amid a sea of dancers sweeping the square.
Must have been very nice.

While futball many great things are going around like these two in a car. Specifically a Russian made limo, apparently.
>Putin gave the North Korea leader a tea set and a dagger
>and a dagger
Sounds like a very KGB thing to do. I mean I've got knives and pocket knives as presents and I've given too, but dagger. Damn.

Btw this is pretty much broke sanctions in place against North Korea. They can import anything via Russia now. And anyone can trade now with NK via Russian proxies.

Table grapes, wine or juice? Are those European or American?

>>48139
Wine. White. But we eat it, or drink it as juice, because not enough for wine, and we have neither the tools nor the facilities to make wine although I could give it to a pal who has, or even to a relative, but again, the amount lacks seriously, plus too much bother.
I dunno their actual type. One looks similar to muscat. Others I think Juhfark or something similar, Hungarian cultivars.

Could be Hárslevelű. I think last time I tried look it up this was my conclusion.

It's gonna rain planets. Finally it will end.

Jesus Christ this weather.
We have rain every day for a month now. Last week and last night we got a storm with constant lightning. I've never seen such thing ever in my life. Last night it kept on lightning for ~25 mins, with constant thunder (couldn't guesstimate the distance), until it passed over. Huge downpour too. Was a bit of blackout. It was weird with the constant lightning when the streetlights went out.
It was fucking insane.
It's raining again, half past 10 in the morn but it's dark outside like in the anus of a mole. Less lightnings luckily. Expecting more blackouts. Or brownouts whatever it is called.

Fairly good, thank you.

Easter is here, Good Friday today.
Looked up a bit of folk believes, and traditions related to this particular day within the greater holiday of Easter, which actually starts 40 days before, with the Great Fast.
One group of customs is a type of health conjuration, all related to water, more specifically to fresh stream/brook water. Most often is bathing in it, washing oneself, just face or fully submerging in it. Sometimes done at early dawn. It could help with various ailments, give beauty, or just health in general. It should help with animals too, either the through should be filled, or the animals has to be led into the water. I like the one where girls seek out places where willow trees grow next to the water for bathing in it results in long, thick, healthy hair (on their scalp).
Christianized explanation of this power of brooks: when the soldiers led Jesus, they pushed him into the Cebron/Kidron river.
Another group is the so called "Pilate burning". A literal act is when they burn a figurine made of straw, which they name either Pilate of Judas Iscariot. This has some derivatives. Sometimes they beat the strawman before burning. At places a child was chased around the courtyard and if he got caught, he got beaten. At one place the priest hit the step leading to the altar with the Bible, and the congregation beat the benches with sticks. The custom of Pilate burning should be known in other ex-parts of the Habsburg monarchy - Austria, Czechia, Poland, Croatia, etc.
Banishing pests - such as rats or cockroaches - can be done on Good Friday. There are taboos, such as butchering chicken or plowing must not be done on this day. There are places where they light fires, sometimes young men jump over it, in some regions they hold vigils at these fires. It was also customary to treat the day as if someone from the family died, and act accordingly (like dress in black/dark clothing, cover mirrors, etc.)

Intradesting

Those bernd know if there's a site that lists all Easter traditions around the world? Could be interesting

>>51916
>site that lists all Easter traditions around the world?
This does not exists. Wikipedia has lots of things but missing even more. And they have biased editing too, they just skip what it doesn't fit in the picture they paint.
What I wrote above for example is specifically for Good Friday, and I found in a Hungarian Catholic lexicon.

>>51715
I don't think all Bernds would be enthusiastic about it. But there probably are a handful of instances when they did something cool.

>>51718
*and worthy to remember.

>>51718
>>51719

Mayb we can choose what to show and who to feature. Some bernds prefer to keep to themselves.

>>51739
Also most of the escapades might not be glorious.

>>51743
>Also most of the escapades might not be glorious.

Ack bernd but that's the entire appeal of KC. Assbergers, srs discussions and the occational mishaps that life gives us. We can't just cover bernd highlights in life. We gotta document Alle!

This is cringe

Sit in a bush and imitate the sound of a carrot.

Yvonne the Terrible

>>51898
I think I should have expanded on this joge. Liek:
>My mother-in-law is called Yvonne
>I just call her Yvonne the Terrible

>>51899
Yes a punchline for a joge needs a story first bernd

>>51118
I'm being really srs now. That chan needs better moderators or more users active in reportings

>>51791
That site gets hit by the same type of spam that hits this chan too. How curious

>>51791
Probably mods check on the board not too often.

>>51792
Many chans have trouble with the same spam. For many years now. This is the sad state of things.

nice board fren

>>51793
I mean they're probably doing their best, but they probably can't handle everything. At least they get rid of it

>>51545
It's still good. T.Hanks for the link

Speaking of websites, let's talk about our board.

We have old banners from years ago. With one linking to an old domain. Will mods update the info on the banners and/or add new banners? Time will tell

>>51576
You are right. I'll look into it sometimes.

>>51576
I could replace banners if someone makes new ones.

Perhaps this should go into the tech thread. But it is a great ChatGPT website:

>>51579
Thank you for your service.
I'll see what can be done about it.
