I was just checking it would be okay with the word police.
So, here's the impact of the second world war: everybody collectively fucked that noise. We lost, like, an entire fucking generation to some incredible bullshit and when everybody was picking up the pieces I guess they decided hey, in between trying to slip one to Russia in our spare time, we might want to try like, never doing that again. Blah blah blah, birth of the European Union, let's all try problemsolving with a lower body-count, it'll be super good PR.
My mother is Scottish-German and my father is British. I was born in Calais and raised in Paris until I was five, so my first language is "surrender", but I don't think of it as my native tongue, particularly.
( gwen. )
My father sold his ancestral home and bought property outside of Florence, Italy. I spent the rest of my childhood between Italy and Russia, and then I was British and Swiss educated at a boarding school, finishing school and conservatoire. I live in London and I have dual British-Italian citizenship, so I usually vote in London but I tend to go home for the EU stuff. English is my third language, after French and Italian, and I also speak a little German and a lot more Russian.
Exactly what part of that did you even remotely give a shit about that would've warranted it instead of the short version.
