History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [945]

The Americans did not come to Moscow in 1980.

hahahaha Darlling, didn`t you say Sport is no place for such b*llshit.

I just gave you an example how Soviet Russians broke your principle. It doesn`t matter who came or didn`t come first.

You don't wanna see me, I don't wanna see you.

You say sth and then contradict yourself in the next post. AmaSSing!!! hahahaha

History / Poles should apologise to Ukrainians first [476]

They had colonies and they spread by conquest so Poland must have done it too

Very good. Thank you for admitting it. So, Poles have a reason to apologise but you reject that idea.

Let`s use your logic now - during WW2, people killed each other en masse. Bad luck but that`s what happens during a war. Normal, isn`t it?? So, it was also a standard behaviour of Ukrainians to kill thousands of Poles occupying Ukraine. War is war and its traditions of killing enemies must be respected.

This means you suggest that Poles wrongly expect any apology or atonement from Ukrainians. What for if they did sth standard?

Sorry, you didn`t use logic. Amasing! :):):)

I wouldn`t take such pains to install that stuff for show in the forum. I don`t have so much time. The installation had a very practical goal and in the meantime I thought it would make a nice riddle to you.

I agree with @Alien. Polish history is much, much more fascinating than those countries mentions.

That`s because you are either Polish or had a contact with Polish culture and real Poles.
While an average Albanian who loves his/her country also considers their history fascinating and ignores others`
If I knew and contacted Albanian natives more often or went to Albania and spent there some time, I would also get interested in their history and probably find it fascinating.

Plants.

You mean fertiliser?? No.

Guys and guyesses, why don `t you follow simple logic in your guessing?

I said twice: it is food but not for eating.
If not for eating, it is for WHAT, then???? What is the other remaining option?

Of course, you can only see the top part of the bigger picture. Below there is sth much more important but right now I am not showing it.

Hint - you can see only dregs now.

History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [945]

A Polish chess champion refused to shake hands with a Russian opponent who openly declares his support for the war and Putin. Let the name of that Russian azhole be withheld as non important.

Respect!!!!

PS. I just read his coach and team had decided on the gesture before the game and they hadn`t cared for consequences, even forced walkover.

Double respect.

Food / Polish Dinner for Boyfriend - what to cook? [34]

not like those poor people before the war who had to eat very modestly their obiady skromne gospodarskie...

Actually, really poor people living in the prewar countryside couldn`t afford such diet. It was the diet of urban population, especially middle class plus.

Flaki and tatar!

Delicacies! I remember Novi showed us these photos a few years ago after his visit to Poland.

I can't say I like pork chops

Strange....... :):):) I know why. As a young person, you didn`t live in communist times when there were periods that fried pork chops were unavailable.

History / Poles should apologise to Ukrainians first [476]

learned

Let me ask again - do you have any arguments based on historical matters instead of personal remarks???

So far, nobody has been able to abolish my argument about Polish colonisation of Ukraine. The conclusion resulting from it is that Poles should apologise first coz it was them who started the conflict as first.

Isn`t it simple and clear???

News / Time to clean the swamp - dePiSification of Poland [324]

onsidering the good PISA result comparing to Germany !

This PISA test had been well done by students before the PiS` deform of education a few years ago. The latest 2022 test proves that Polish students dropped in overall ranking.

Thank you, PIS gangsters!!! Polish teachers will fekking remember your dirty contribution to this deterioration!!!!

Mr Honourable Saviour Donald Tusk and company are ploughing through PiS gangsters like a tank through the field of wheat. Changes take place every day and I don`t have so much time to cover them all.

A recent one which infuriated PiS gansters and their puppet President:

On Friday, Bodnar, the justice minister and prosecutor general, decided to remove the National Prosecutor Dariusz Barski from the post and appointed Jacek Bilewicz as acting National Prosecutor.

polskieradio.pl/395/7784/Artykul/3316122,president-slams-removal-of-national-prosecutor

On Friday, Bodnar, the justice minister and prosecutor general, decided to remove the National Prosecutor Dariusz Barski from the post and appointed Jacek Bilewicz as acting National Prosecutor.

Before handing over power, PiS wanted to prevent changes in the prosecutor's office to possible successors. So that if the election is lost, it would not be possible to dismiss National Prosecutor Dariusz Barski, who is a friend of Zbigniew Ziobro and once got into the Sejm on the PiS list. His new head - the Prosecutor General - cannot, in accordance with the law, change his deputy without the president's consent. - As if the president of the United States had delegated his powers to the vice president and he had nothing to say. This is obviously unconstitutional - says Zbigniew Ćwiąkalski, former Minister of Justice and Prosecutor General.

On Friday , Adam Bodnar published a statement in which he informed that "the reinstatement of him (Barski - editor's note) to active service on February 16, 2022 by the previous Prosecutor General, Zbigniew Ziobro, was made in violation of applicable regulations and had no legal effects. "A provision of the Act was applied that was no longer in force." Additionally, the Minister of Justice also published three legal opinions confirming the legality of this statement.

- The Prosecutor General did it very neatly, effectively and in accordance with the law - says Professor Maciej Gutowski, a lawyer from the Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań, about Bodnar's actions.

Adam Bodnar decided that if the National Prosecutor and colleague of Zbigniew Ziobro was appointed to active service using a provision that was not in force, Dariusz Barski is still retired, so the president's consent to appoint Jacek Bilewiczna as the acting National Prosecutor is not necessary.

The president thinks otherwise and wrote on the Internet that Adam Bodnar is trying to remove Dariusz Barski from the position of National Prosecutor, "for which he has no independent competences."

- I want us to recognize that if someone says about himself that he is still the National Prosecutor, despite the decisions of the Prosecutor General, it is not the case that he still is. No, he is not - says Donald Tusk about the whole situation. - I would prefer to look for this common space with the president, but I will not forget that it is the president who is the cause of this constitutional, systemic and judicial confusion. 2015, 2016, 2017 are joint decisions of Mr. Kaczyński and President Duda - adds the head of government.

inappropriate

The only inappropriate thing here is your knowledge of history of Poland. Ha!! Poles were colonising Ukraine for centuries and eventually Ukrainians said No more. Just like they are saying it to Russian colonisers.

...but....a lance rider in 1932???

Yes, even in 1939. A few German soldiers were pierced to death with those lances when Hitler invaded Poland. :):):)

See this vid at 1:17
Historians claim such lance scenes didn`t take place but the director thought different:

what is an "uhlan"?

Uhlan was a horse rider whose main weapon was a lance. They were quite efficient in close combat. Another name can be a lancer.
See Polish uhlans making short work of British cavalry at Waterloo.

Of course, let`s be honest, Polish history is as fascinating as any other country`s. We are not special in any way. I suppose Albania or Caucasian Georgia has an equally fantastic past. :):):)

I then wrapped the stanchion with carpet so he could grab onto it to climb up to the platform .

Yes, a very good idea. I will do it too. I have kept a huge walnut tree branch in our barn. I planned to paint it and install in the front yard as a rack for hanging plants.

Devil Dante hissed and ruffled, He climbed the sofa and later he went to sleep

just like that:

News / Scandals, conflicts, tensions, arguments - real life examples from Poland [492]

The latest scandal is the joke of a singer celebrity (about 70 yo) that the migrants who Germans are going to relocate to Poland will be placed in the bunkhouses in former death camps like Auschwitz or Stuthoff built and run by Germans in the past. That guy is a rightist, btw. Polish rightists hate Germans.

Life / What do Poles really think about cats? [470]

Our relatives came for a visit with a family pet namely a dog.
Our three cats displayed 3 different attitudes.
Ginger instantly tried to attack the dog with his paws, so we had to close him in one of the rooms.
Devil Dante hissed and ruffled, but didn`t attack. He climbed the sofa to observe the dog from a safe distance and later he went to sleep, not bothered by the dog`s constant barking.

Black Pearl, the most sensitive of all, climbed the highest place available to her, namely the stillage with glass cages in my bedroom and stayed there until the visit finished. See below:
