The Netherlands is back at stage 1 of the cycle: New populist party created -> gets saturation media coverage implying they’re very fresh and clever -> party wins lots of votes -> it becomes clear that party is not in fact fresh and clever but weird and incompetent -> party implodes And repeat

you know this guy is a FOR REAL photographer because he's telling the story of his brutal, unconditional arrest by federal goons and can't help but slip in a gear review

Mensen lopen langzamer. Kinderen spelen. Volwassenen ook. Al lopend wordt er eens naar elkaar gelachen. Een kort praatje gemaakt. Een sneeuwstorm van een paar weken zou dit land goed doen. ❄️

Fixed up this beauty today. It's a hand crank & solar powered radio I've had for years and years. the in-built NiMH battery gave up and started leaking magic crystals.

I am guessing from the name this is the stuff that Action sells. Update yo shit!

I'm sharing this here, as I have on Facebook and Instagram, but there's no account on here to share from, and I just think this is wonderful. A really good balance of design and implementation, and appears to achieve everything it set out to do, and it *SO* appeals to my inner 'work nerd'.

“Er is meer dan vrouwenrechten,” aldus Bert-Jan Ruissen van de SGP wanneer ik hem confronteer met het feit dat vrouwen overlijden omdat artsen in Polen en de VS uit angst voor het abortusverbod geen noodzakelijke zorg verlenen. Dit debat, anno 2025. Met een man. Het is nauwelijks te bevatten.

The actual execution of it is so cringy. Like, whatever the technique, they couldn't bother to make it look even a TINY BIT like they're interacting or share the same location-appropriate lighting? This had to be made in 5 mins, like a comedy news show graphic for a gag, except it's an annual cover.

One thing Bluesky needs to understand about its userbase is that they have ALL deserted another platform once before because it turned shitty, and thus the barrier to them for doing so again is low. In other news, I am @[email protected]

when i was invited to the full panel interview for my job, i turned it down i sent an email to the hiring manager & architect, saying i was honored that they would even consider me for this role of a lifetime, but i didn’t think i had what it takes just yet

Ik dacht even een kort artikeltje/draadje te schrijven over de woekerpraktijken van Klarna en hoe rampzalig dat soort kredieten in de VS uitpakken. Maar ik ben in een gat gevallen over 'open finance' en het (mogelijke) échte verdienmodel van Klarna. 🧵Klarna: gegevensdief vermomd als krediethaai

Happy birthday Orla Gartland Secret Demo Cub! (and me) 🎉 The Secret Demo Club is A DECADE old today (27th) I've met so many people on the SDC and I just came back from Berlin to see Emma Harner with SDC friends. Happy 10th anniversary! #secretdemoclub #orlagartland

haps bday to my favourite nerd @pa3weg.nl – your creativity and knowledge never fail to amaze me and i've never met someone who is there for everyone the way you are. may you prioritize you and only you today

Ingezonden brief van de week…

My report got adopted, a big win for sustainable farming in Europe! The European Parliament voted with a 90,8% majority to accelerate the approval and uptake of biocontrols. More biodiversity in the countryside, less harmful chemicals in our food and water! This could be the future!

KASSA wordt wegbezuinigd en dat is echt heel erg. daar werken mensen -soms decennia lang- aan belangrijke verhalen voor de consument, veelal in de onderklasse. banen weg, maatschappelijke impact weg. onze omroep, en daarmee ook de mensen (!) die het maken, wordt in het hart geraakt.

Thanks, but no thanks. We don't want Amazon, Microsoft and Google to invest a trillion dollars in datacenters in Europe that will bring data of EU citizens within reach of Trump and will lock-in our digital dependence for decades to come. We need to start building our own digital infrastructure.

On my way back home from seeing #EmmaHarner with the SDC gang in Berlin!

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture. They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1
