One German was Pope. Another one constructed Auschwitz...

One Pole was also pope, but no Pole constructed Auschwitz.

I think in the hallways

It was exactly the same in our first apartment in Germany and I would never say that we lived in a slum, but.....in an old building.

that don't have their own toilet.

Are the toilets in the yard or in the hallway shared by everyone?

Slums

In fact, slums do not exist in Poland, at least not like in Africa or South America. There are indeed poorer districts, but they are not districts of poverty and crime, which is the case, for example, in (rich) Germany.

But probably not for everyday driving.

I've got two left feet

This means that you can only drive a car with an automatic transmission.

They really do make a positive difference

Assuming that one person unscrews just one cap per day and throws it away, this creates 400,000 tons of plastic waste worldwide every day.

A very interesting situation, Jon has become a defender of the European Union even though he does not live in it, and Korvinus complains about this Union even though his homeland benefits from it the most of all countries. 🤔

genius EU regulation

Tethered caps function quite well when handled properly. Watch videos of how to 'use' these new bottles. It leaves much less plastic waste and also discourages buying single-use bottles. Reusable bottles have regular caps.
