This is *too good* a photoshop to waste. If you appreciate my content, or my advocacy, you might consider dropping me a small tip - always vastly appreciated!

You can do that via either these two sites:

* paypal.me/mikestuchbery
* Ko-fi.com/mikestuchbery
Of course, you're also welcome to tell me to feck off. Free country and all that.
Also, those who saw my tweet yesterday about soap - I won't send it on such fripperies.

I studied the Nazis at university, taught the history of Nazi Germany on two continents and wrote for major newspapers about Nazi Germany. I am internet famous for fact-checking chuds on the history, ideology and policy of Nazi Germany.

That was a Nazi salute.
Postscript: For every dingbat posting Kamala or Hilary waving... they're not doing the wind-up, hand to heart which is the hallmark of the Nazi/fascist salute.
While you're here, have a head of some of my work for @TheLocalGermany on Nazi Germany.

Americans: 'Tommy Robinson' isn't in jail for exposing grooming gangs, he's there because a grift went off the rails and he ended up being sued for defaming a teenaged boy. I know, I helped fundraise that action.

He was warned to stop defaming the kid, he ignored it. FAFO.
'Tommy' has had years and multiple chances to avoid potential imprisonment. He has been left alone regarding almost every other stunt of his, but British defamation law is a different beast.

He put himself in prison, mostly to fundraise. He's nigh on unemployable otherwise.
In fact, as has been noted again and again, his previous stint in prison came because he refused to stop filming suspects in a grooming trial.

This could have led to the entire trial collapsing, and sexual predators walking free.

He knows this - it's all part of his grift.

Sometimes when I get a little down in the dumps, I try to remember the amazing things around me, that connect me to a wider history, and my spirits soar.

This is Kloster Denkendorf, about twenty minutes drive from me. 🧵
Sometime in the 1120s, a 'Bertholdus', perhaps Berthold, Count of Hohenberg & Lindenfels, returned from a trip to the Holy Land and donated a small monastery and a church to the Canons of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, who sent a prior to Southern Germany. 🧵
Over the next hundred years, the protection of this church and monastery were placed under some very important families - the Hohenstaufen, the Habsburg, and the Holy Roman Empire. 🧵

With #InternationalWomensDay on the 8th of March, here's who you can thank for its existence: Clara Zetkin! 🧵
Clara was born in the kingdom of Sachsen in 1857. In the 1870s she became involved with rhe SPD while studying to become teacher.

Her politics veering further leftwards, she spent time in Switzerland and Paris, dodging bans on socialist and communist orgs. 🧵
It was during her time in Paris that Clara, nee Eißner, took the name Zetkin, from her lover, Ossip Zetkin - the pair had two children - Maxim & Konstantin.

All the while she integral in forming the Second Socialist International, and other organisations. 🧵

I tweeted that the inventor of the first real automobile, Gottlieb Daimler, died #onthisday in 1900.

Not many know this, but Daimler had a habit of scaring the bejesus out of his neighbours. I'd like to honour that. 1/4
When Daimler was putting his 'grandfather clock' engine onto a carriage chassis, the noise from his greenhouse in Bad Cannstatt was alarming his neighbours so much that his gardener eventually led the police in - they'd suspected him of running a counterfeiting operation! 2/4
On November 18 1885, a brave 17 year old Paul Daimler climbed on his father's invention, the 'Reitwagen', and made the world's first motorcycle trip along the banks of the Neckar River, terrifying local with the roar of the 1/2hp engine.

Also the seat caught fire. 3/4

One thing that I don't think gets talked enough with folks experiencing ADD and/or living on the spectrum is the financial hit.

And I don't mean in a 'oops, didn't pay that bill way', but what years of grappling with if does to your job history and career progression.
There's loads of financial tools out there to help you keep track of where money is going - believe me, I use several.

However, there's not much that can be done when career progression has slowed due to ADD/ASD, but costs keep rising.

Working *harder* isn't an option.
Now, life patently isn't fair, and there is something to be said for hard graft.

Yet perhaps we need to examine and acknowledge that grey zone of those who high functioning, and can do some things really well - but end up driving themselves into the ground over time.
