When politicians want to starve an issue, they like to say it needs to be broadly debated, studied – or thought about.

In particular, it is worth thinking about it more intensively here.

Because that, as those who have tried it before, know, is complicated – with thinking in general.

If a lateral thinker thinks, he thinks, then he often only thinks, he thinks - to quote the wonderful naturopath Juliane Werding, followed, of course, by Markus Söder.

In a thoughtful interview with the "SZ", the mastermind said that a "pause for thought" was needed when it came to the subject of a new concert hall in Munich.

Is this a pause to think - or a pause from thinking?

You would have to know whether Söder generally considers thinking to be good or bad.

Depending on.

At his press reception on Thursday evening, he said that it would be better to go outside than to sit in the state chancellery and constantly think about everything, because you can also think.

Rarely thought so!

Admittedly, not all ideas are good.

Anything at all?

Buddhists work towards not thinking.

Likewise center forward.

If someone has a jam, it means he thinks too much in front of the goal.

And wasn't it Söder who was once described by Alexander Dobrindt as the best scorer in the Union?

the human thinks, God leads

But Söder, although he may have a different opinion himself, is only human.

And thinking is human.

It turns him on.

The human thinks, God leads.

So I think I am.

Cogito ergo sum.

What was Descartes thinking?

With another thinker one may reply: Cogito ergo sum - sum, sum, sum, bee, buzz around.

honey in the head

Brecht was probably right: Man thinks: God directs.

At least for a long time there was a certain consensus that thinking should come before speaking or writing.

This is no longer the case in science.

It was recently read that young academics are no longer able to read because they have to publish so much.

Worse still, he can no longer think.

If an idea gets lost in your brain, it has to get out immediately.

Every thought published.

After all, thoughts are free.

The members of the federal government have also completed a turning point in this regard, albeit in different ways.

While Robert Habeck has developed into a master of the gradual development of thoughts while speaking, Olaf "His thoughtful" Scholz apparently only thinks without ever communicating any results.

It's a good thing that there are think tanks where ideas roll off the production line like German tanks.

Hence the English term think tanks.

Brainer these days: Lindner's wedding

Finally, we have to come to THE brainer these days: Christian Lindner's wedding!

There was a lot of thought as to whether it was appropriate to get married on the island where Christine Lambrecht dined with Gosch, while a punk had to sleep under the open sky in front of the registry office.

Why, surely!

It's nice that CL (Lindner, not Lambrecht) is finally getting married, caressed by the sea wind and caressed by the sound of Porsche, or, speaking to Klaus Lemke, who died much too early, making amore.

For what use is love in thought?

As much as thoughts in love.

So nothing.

It's like in front of the gate.

The FAZ has previously published on the subject of love and Lindner.

In a text about the "Order against animal seriousness" it was said that Lindner rewarded ladies in the audience who were fond of him with "maximum physical contact".

The astonishing thing: The “SZ” said exactly the same thing.

Now you might think: If two such hands match, it must be right.

But that would be a mistake, as Daniel-Pascal Zorn would immediately notice.

In fact, it was a concerted action that unions and employers could learn a lesson from today.

That means, dear Franca Lehfeldt: You don't have to worry about anything!
