"Now EU want to ban our kettles"

First they came for the kettles, and I did not speak out —

Because I did not drink hot beverages.

Then they came for the toasters, and I did not speak out —

Because I was on a gluten-free diet.

Then they came for the hairdryer, and I did not speak out —

Because I was bald.

Then they came for me — because there were no other unsafe devices left to defuse.
