1/x So a lot of people are talking about the "shipping route" in the Strait of Hormuz. What exactly are those shipping routes? On the charts, you can see a magenta-coloured area. This is a TSS or traffic separation scheme. A small 🧵 #maritimenavigation

This is the 1961 mugshot of activist Joan Trumpauer Mulholland, arrested for sitting on a Black bus. Authorities subjected her to mental health tests because they couldn't understand why a white woman would fight for African American civil rights.

Ein schöner Tag im Oberallgäu

Hi, my name is George, and it’s been 361 days since my last purchase from Amazon.

Dutch late night TV has its take

Nice evening in Egypt

Treuren dat 'je' #boekhandel verdwijnt, maar intussen je boeken bij bol.com bestellen. Ook hier gaat dat zo, bij #Meck&Holt . In Amsterdam Nieuw-West, met 166.000 inwoners. En straks dus zonder een boekhandel.

Tussen al het politieke amateurisme door hoop ik van harte, dat ook een partij als #Volt bij de komende verkiezingen door de kiezer meer wordt gezien. Juist in onzekere tijden is een meer Europese aanpak op o.a. Defensie, Klimaat, Economie en Cyber absoluut nodig. @laurensdassen.voltnederland.org

The Dutch historian Rutger Bregman’s new book makes the argument that society’s best and brightest should be focused on making the world a better place instead of making money. Read or listen to more on The Interview. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/17/m...

Statement from the #MusiciansUnion of the United States 🇺🇸 and #Canada 🇨🇦 to the fat bastard #BruceSpringsteen #TaylorSwift

The average American worker gets about a $2,500 bonus each year. Rep. Raskin has questions, I have answers. $1.3 billion for bonuses? Sounds like we can lower it and save taxpayers money.

PLEASE don’t buy into Amazon’s booksale this week. They are intentionally trying to eat into profits from Indie Bookstore Day this weekend, a really important annual event for our important community institutions. Check out your local fave or bookshop.org.

Dutch neurologist Bas Bloem has become one of the most outspoken voices on the environmental drivers of Parkinson’s — and what he sees as a growing failure to confront their long-term impact on the human brain. 🔗 ow.ly/Nahq50VzLnV

The Art of the Deal… 😇

American warship go fuck yourself....imagine that...

Europe could do a lot more to harm the U.S. economy than just boycott or tariff U.S. goods. The U.S. has a surplus in exports of services. Taxes or tariffs on U.S. business and digital services would be quite the blow. Lose-lose of course, and unlikely right now. But if push comes to shove...

America’s raging inequality is on display. The corrupting power of wealth and giant corporations has never been more clear. Billionaires are running Washington and unleashing a tsunami of big money and legalized bribery. Serious question: Where the hell are the Democrats?

Op deze dag in 1848 vond het Damoproer plaats in Amsterdam. Het maatschappelijke onbehagen als gevolg van economische crisis, hoge accijnzen op brood en vlees en de hoge werkloosheid kwam tot een uitbarsting. Veel ruiten in omliggende straten sneuvelden. Het oproer was van korte duur

🇫🇷 French MEP Raphael Glucksmann calls for the US to return the Statue of Liberty, claiming America no longer upholds the values it was gifted for. “We gave it to you as a gift, but apparently you despise it.” www.france24.com/en/france/20...

Listen to Bella Ciao (Hugel Remix)) by El Profesor on #SoundCloud on.soundcloud.com/Bng2av8uvSro...

🇫🇷 Macron opened a meeting of chiefs of staff of nearly 30 countries, including NATO, EU, Japan and Australia, to prepare a military contingent of a “coalition of the willing”. "European countries can guarantee Ukraine’s security without the US, but additional resources are needed to deter Russia."

Shoot! If I were Mexico, I'd capitalize off of American foolishness, and welcome Canadian snowbirds with open arms. Just saying.

The #EU has ~500 million citizens, versus #Russia's ~140 million and the #USA's ~300 million. The #EU's economy is ~8 times bigger than #Russia's (~17 trillion versus ~2.2 trillion). It's time the #EU became as much a military and foreign policy power as it is an economic one. #TheEUisBigger
