I don't know about Russian but at least Croatian which is also a Slavic language confuses the hell out of me (and I'm German)

This does not work in German because fighter (Kämpfer) is gendered as male. There's is female version of it though (Kämpferin). We have Feuerwehrmann and Feuerwehrfrau. Correct gendering in German is (I say that as an older a male) a bit complicated and makes the sentences usually mich longer or sound weird.

There was a joke solution to this that I really liked: add a "y" to the end or all gendered words: Feuerwehry, Frisöry, Mitarbeity, Erziehery, Arzty etc.

Monster or Ungeheuer would work too. Feuerwehrmonster.

We need dark triad personality screening and trat it like a disability that disqualifies them from participating in politics or leadership roles. It's bad for them, they can do other things. Completely blind people also shouldn't be bus drivers.

Yep. Mit "auf den letzten Drücker" meine ich übrigens mit dem Auto beim Finanzamt vorbei fahren und das Zeug in den Briefkasten werfen, weil die Post zu spät wäre.

I never had this problem when I was younger. Until the day I had a medical examination to be drafted and they wanted me to give them a urine sample and I couldn't. They offered me lots of water (which I drank) but still I couldn't pee for what felt like an hour. Ever since I had problems relaxing.

Mein Vater hat als erstes immer eine Bitte um Fristverlängerung abgeschickt (wurde immer genehmigt) und es dann trotzdem noch auf den letzten Drücker der verlängerten First gemacht

Allergies too. Unfortunately. However, it's fine. I just won't disturb nature and hopefully don't get killed by it in return.
