Do you know German author Erich Kästner?
This quote, of highly current interest, is taken from his chapbook "About the Burning of Books" - something by which he was affected back in 1933.
Translation partially my own.

Thank you for providing the background. As cute as it is, it's nothing without the past story. Of course everything is possible, but I doubt a wild animal would react this way to a domesticated animal.

Exactly this. Plus, even though a wolf is a wild and therefore quite unpredictable creature it is safe to assume that the wolf is more scared of us than we of him in such a situation. No great danger there, and once free, he would run away.
@tonyserrata
While it's true that there are 5 feet bats out there, this bat in the picture looks way bigger of course due to the perspective. However, I don't find it scary. Fascinating, and somehow cute with the chilling face, but scary? No way! Here's more to it:
Hitler's minions started out as an unhinged group of thugs in the 1920s. As bad as it was then, it turned out to be worse in the 1930s and, as we all know, even worse after that.
Please, America, act before it's too late. History might not repeat itself, but it rhymes.

@andy4democracy
They're an unhinged group of thugs. Their deep personal anger and paranoia leaves them feeling helpless. So they lash out at any OTHER (gay/poc). Their illness pushes them toward the relief they believe violence will bring. Jan6 was just a fress reheasal. We're in trouble.

More than 101 m didn't use their right to vote in 2020. If this was a country it would be the most populated one in the EU and almost 3 times as polulated as Canada
Make voting a virtue! 🌊

Not that it would matter anyway since you guys tend to be allergic to the truth. When you don't believe it (I'm certain you won't) - google it, research it (I'm certain you won't).
Stop calling it GOP.
There's nothing "grand" about it. Not anymore.
It's old, but it shouldn't be dead. Trump killed it.
It's not a party anymore, it's a cult.
If anything, it's TPFKAGOP - The Party Formerly Known As GOP.

44 percent of Republicans don't see gun violence as a problem
100 percent of me is disgusted
1000 percent of me wants you to vote them all out - turn the US blue to save democracy!

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but Liz Cheney will continue to sit on the January 6 committee for five more months while she burns the GOP to the ground.

My toenails curl in horror, watching from Germany.
Sadly, things like this appear to be just a side note in the media, if it's reported at all. As for Germany: mostly crickets - where this *should* be topic of the day (for reasons..)

Since I'm German I can't, sadly. But if I could, I would
And if you can, you should!
I'm talking about voting blue of course
Make voting blue a virtue - it's a vote for you and us!

For obvious reasons I won't wish you, my American friends, happy Independence Day. Right now, it's neither of it. Enjoy this holiday though! ❤️🔥
Let's postpone this day to November 8th and make THIS a real and a great one!
