Nena's song "99 Luftballons" provoked a cultural dilemma when Americans realized that "Luftballon" did not mean "Red Balloon" as commonly translated, but "Air Balloon." Americans grew suspicious of what other kind of balloon than air Germany had discovered, nearly resulting in global nuclear war as the song itself had prophesied. In the end, it turned out the alternative was merely "Staubballon," just like any American dust-balloon.
You’ve said Mija’s ig bio is like “I love football but not as much as a love my mom”
What are the other football kids ig bios?
Nena: Another Engen at Barcelona
Tesoro: Russo 23 part two
Bug: North London Forever (and then a link to a narcolepsy research charity)
Bean: The cool Williamson
Peanut: I'm better at football than you
Princesse: Sweden and Arsenal/Barcelona/Wolfsburg's goalkeeper (whichever club she's currently at and then a link to her foundation in Sweden about getting girls into goalkeeping)
How do we care about Nena? Nena, if you hear this, I love you für immer, baby. Nena, Joost Klein loves you so much! [cheers] But I respect your boundaries and your privacy; I would never stalk you, Nena; I just wanna show you love and affection. ["99 Luftballons" starts playing]
We've come a long way with this little challenge of mine. Three quarters into the year. And I have 3 months left to have this done.
Thank you for sticking around since Jan 1 and seeing this mediocre art being put out every day.
Also, if you're new and just found out about these Smol Horses, welcome, and thank you for being witnesses to my hyper fixation on this silly cowboy.
I'm not sure what I'm going to do with these microorganisms once this ends. Make it into a book or a bunch of stickers? Make some charms out of them? Some friends told me to print them out into a book, draw additional illustrations, and sell the book.
idk, really...
Anyway, for October, I might follow the Inktober prompts for the 1 Day 1 Hol challenge. I also wanted to do the Jojotober, but I can't find the prompts anywhere.
