Black humor action day.

June 25, 2025 was the day. The 12th day of action against hate and hate speech online was literally just around the corner. At 6 a.m. on the dot, there was a concerted ringing and knocking on German apartment doors. The state showed a dark sense of humor when choosing the date, as 25 June is also George Orwell's birthday.

I'm tired of all the anti-days. More pro-days are needed. This is the first day of action for black humor. My pro-day consists of a colorful bouquet of bizarre short stories with a true background. Fun and jokes instead of hate and agitation! The reading is voluntary, a voluntary visitation instead of a forced house search! Where do I start? 

Perhaps with a fish, or more precisely with a giant catfish. Such a 90-kilogram colossus was up to mischief in a bathing lake in Middle Franconia until the creature was heroically shot by a policeman. I got to the bottom of this story [1]. It's called in-depth research for a reason.

A catfish called Wanda

Why wasn't the dead animal given a name? That still puzzles me to this day. Prominent animals are always given a name to generate sympathy. See Paul, the clairvoyant soccer octopus from Oberhausen or Knut, the legendary polar bear from Berlin. I correct the media misconduct and call the catfish Wanda post mortem. Alternatively, Orson Wels or George Orwels would be a good choice. Enough of the puerile racket! My in-depth research proves it: The catfish named Wanda was definitely right-wing extremist. All the evidence points to this.

A catfish prefers muddy bottoms at the bottom of the lake. This brown underground environment is its natural habitat. In addition, the catfish called Wanda is a beneficiary of man-made climate change. Its population is growing in times of climate apocalypse. Typical of extreme right-wing fish, Wanda guards his brood, his own family, with fanatical devotion. So it came as it had to. Wanda turned against the liberal democratic bathing regulations. The internalized traditional understanding of her role led to aggressive and combative behaviour from Wanda the catfish. Shut up, monkey dead, catfish too! It's just surprising that the state security services aren't investigating. The state always does that in the case of aggressive, combative behavior.

From animal to human and on to the next story. It remains animalistic. It's about sex. Rumors have been circulating for some time that Putin is in possession of compromising sex videos of high-ranking German politicians. Military expert Carlo Masala knows about this [2]. I wanted to know too. So I delved deep into penetration sites. The result of my fuck check was shocking.

Sex, lies and Putin videos

A lot has happened in the sexuality sector in recent decades. This should be said to all those who, like me, are in a phase of life in which you find relaxation by watching cat or chess videos and no longer through pornography. Back to the initial question: Are there compromises? Are there sex videos of German politicians and military personnel on relevant sites? Yes and no! That's the result of my fuck check.

There is a half-hour compilation of a total of twenty sex episodes by prominent German supporters of the war. So Carlo Masala was right. The content of the film can be summarized as follows: Sexual war of aggression sees  looks different. That's why I copied the Cyrillic title of the non-sex video into a translation machine. Putin's sex video with and about German politicians is called "Der Krisenstab" in German. 

Too absurd? It can be even more absurd. The capital of Absurdistan is known as Berlin. People are happy that Robert Habeck is finally leaving Germany to lecture on inflation in Berkeley and then this happens: the actor Habeck returns as an actor and directly to the stage of the venerable Berliner Ensemble.

The Threepenny Grandpa 

The theater founded by Bert Brecht does not have it easy economically. Last year alone, the Berliner Ensemble was subsidized by the Senate with almost 20 million euros. In my opinion, that's not enough when you think of the cooperative role the theater played in Correctiv's Potsdam Fantasy. Do you remember? The drama "Secret Plan against Germany", devised by Jean Peters, premiered on the stage of the Berliner Ensemble just one week after the publication of "Recherche". And in 2025?

"Habeck live!" Robert Habeck becomes presentable in a regular Sunday salon [3]. Potzblitz! In addition to the protagonist Habeck, celebrities Anne Will and Volker Wissing are invited to the premiere on October 5, 2025. Why aren't there talks like this on television? You could call the revolutionary format a talk show. 

For visitors to the capital with an affinity for culture, I anticipate the experience of a long weekend. On Saturday evening, I recommend seeing the Threepenny Opera in the ensemble. Just be careful on the way home to the hotel. The odd Mackie Messer is up to mischief in Berlin. After a short night, it's time for Grandpa in the Threepenny Opera on the same stage. Grandpa, of course! After all, the eternal youngster Habeck was born in 1969, and the penny usually drops slowly with Robert. That's why, thanks to Robert, the mark is only worth three pennies. What can visitors expect from "Habeck live"? A lot of transformation, little information. One man, one word salad!

I think the topic of the premiere talk is less funny. It's called "Do democracies need an emergency?". Phew. Of course democracies need emergencies. And then democracies need emergency laws. These could be emergency laws because of pandemics or because of the climate or because of war. In such cases, a "law to remedy the emergency" is needed, better known as an enabling law [4].

The question posed by the Berliner Ensemble  is too absurd even for me. It's too much black humor for me. I'm now planning a day of action against the Berliner Ensemble. Title? Read Break until you break!
