watching Liam O'Brien do a spectacular fantasy!German for dozens of episodes has impressed me so much and yet nothing could have possibly prepared me for the man starting to sing, of all the songs, "Laurentia, liebe Laurentia mein"
the immersion! if you reached to the very back of my memory there'd be like ten folk songs there and this one, which we used to have to sing at 7:00 in the morning on choir retreats while doing squats and other silly little workouts, would definitely be there. it's a silly ditty you've heard somehow exclusively in childhood, it's a little game song for children. If all else was tainted by your later life that song would probably survive, it's perfect

I had to make a poster for my German class to show an example of the preposition “Über” (Over) so I drew BOTW Link paragliding over a bokoblin and uh. It got me thinking. Mainly about how Über, the German word, is similar to Uber, the transportation company. And now I’m imagining a Hylian Uber service where it’s all run by Link. For ten rupees you can be brought personally to your location by the Hero himself! The only downside is he gets to chose the route.
And he’s a bit of a thrill seeker sometimes.
So every time someone gets an Uber, it’s a toss up whether they’ll get a nice calm horseback ride or go hurtling down a mountain on the back of a shield at Mach 50 as their driver shoots bomb arrows at passing Lizalfos.
