Het zou fijn zijn als dat AI generated was... Good Grief.

THIS. There is a better future possible for Ireland and Northern Ireland. The young people are crossing borders and building it.

I have to say that the European Parliament announcing that the Sakharov, I say again, Sakharov prize for free thought goes to the International Criminal Court is glorious. That is what getting the very polite finger from the entire European Union looks like. youtube.com/shorts/wHK2O...

Eerst dacht ik dat bijv. samenvatten niet zo erg is. Maar ooit heb ik geleerd dat notulen maken een stukje macht geeft, door volgorde en bepalen wat weggelaten wordt. En dat geldt hier ook voor inderdaad, dat willen we niet laten bepalen door AI maar door gekozen volkstegenwoordigers.

Goed initiatief. Maar ik wil wel graag weten, zeker omdat hij zelf niet streeft naar minder plastic gebruiken, wat er gebeurt met al dat opgeviste plastic. Het doel moet toch een schonere planeet zijn, dus daar moet dit dan wel aan bijdragen.

I just watched NAZA. As Omar says the quiet, factual tone in which horrific atrocities are described is beyond all bearing. This reality, these acts cannot be tolerated or condoned.

This are scary times in America and elsewhere, so remember an astoundingly brave American, the child of a Peuto Rican and an Irish-American who defended children in the face of madness at the cost of her own life: Victoria Leigh Soto. Be like Victoria.

It's the same picture

"De waterkwaliteit in Nederland is de slechtste van alle EU-lidstaten; maar één procent van onze wateren verdient het predicaat ‘goed’. De kans is dan ook klein dat we tijdig voldoen aan de Europese Kaderrichtlijn Water."

These a terrible word "this is how we go extnct."

Kijk, dit is zo enorm schandalig. Dat we niet eens, als verantwoordelijk gastland, durven te zeggen dat het slecht is.

Beloved wife pointed out that not all heros are a bad sign (see my other post) but her examples are all of the kind of quiet, local heroism that I tend to label solidarity: helping someone find their way, mending a bike tire, picking up garbage etc. Fully agree these are important and heroic acts.

Wat? Netanyahu is tegen persvrijheid en transparantie? Colour me shocked...

I’ve thought since first seeing it that this logo would make great t-shirts for those of us recovering from alcoholism.

Lawsuits can’t stop fascism. Sorry. There is precisely one thing that stops fascism.

So according to the Dutch Central Bureau for Statistics about 18% of Dutch people (as of 2024) over the age of 18 are LBTQIA. So in a class of 30 students that's at least 5. That is who Paarse Vrijdag is for. So that they are safe and welcome among the other 25. www.cbs.nl/en-gb/news/2...

“The 600 series had rubber skin. We spotted them easy, but these are new. They look human — sweat, bad breath, everything.”

Quote from a Zeteo interview with Kathryn Anne Edwards, "Govenments don't block progress, they just block greed" Yep.

It is Paarse Vrijdag, a day of celebrating diversity and tolerance, in the Netherlands.

Beloved wife just came back from the pharmacy. The lady in front of her at the desk was swapping out her meds because they were made in Israel. Yes it's small. But it is everywhere. Israel is a violent, oppressive, apartheid state and we have to treat them as such.

Simon is not wrong. Very, very, very often tackling pollution and climate impacts SAVES MONEY, just not for the polluter, just for the rest of us.

The British Green party has shown backbone and is standing against genocide.

the Green Party may now well be the most legitimate pro-Palestinian political party in Europe. Everyone who cares about the genocide in Gaza and decades of white western colonialism in Palestine must support them in any way they can!

Dear Americans, just going to point out that Russia has unleashed the Black Death (by accident?!) and your health monitoring systems were gutted by DOGE and the moron in charge. Stock up on broad spectrum antibiotics.

Israel is closing the UK Consulate in East Jerusalem. This will lead to expulsions of Israeli diplomats. They are also expelling Dutch diplomats. They have not yet targeted French and Canadian diplomats. Israel is destroying itself on the international stage.

The majority of Dutch politicians and journalists don't want to stop Israel, they want 'Israel to defend itself' The genocide in Gaza is a collective crime

This is a revelation and not a good one youtube.com/shorts/OmQZe...

Jimmy Carr on AI "Don't outsource any skill you are not comfortable losing". We may destroy ourselves with convenience.

May happen here too. Just 88% is vaccinated

Over 540,000 people have been deported since the start of the second Trump administration in January 2025. This has had a devastating impact not just on those detained, but on the children left behind. Human Rights Watch spoke to many parents in the aftermath of their deportations. Read more:

lol

Another Kash Patel hearing, another day he's not asked about the $25,000 he got from a Russian-linked propagandist. @davidcorn.bsky.social reports in this video from 2025:

Laten we de genocide nog wat meer financieren. Met dank aan de partijen die zich christelijk noemen.

I like the ancient and now charmingly dilapidated site Imgur and this news summary is one of the best things on it.

Heel zwart, maar dat verdiend deze zaak ook

Just a random reminder that it's a moral outrage we're the only industrialized country without paid family and medical leave.

Wow. This is terrible. Don't share this.

Tatiana Maslani is an amazing actress and a thoughtful, principled person

Elon Musk built fake voting registration checking websites, to steal personal info... wtf? youtube.com/shorts/OkSXy...

De Volkskrant besteedde deze zomer uitgebreid aandacht aan de activiteiten van Van den Heuvel en zijn kompanen. Hij blijkt racistisch geweld als een verdienmodel te zien, door grote steden te bezoeken, naar bekende probleemplekken te gaan en daar de confrontatie zoeken met migranten.

Keer op keer op keer op keer

Nicaragua is correct. Germany is complicit in a genocide. They should, having the history they have, know better.

NAZA an important film documenting the systemic murder of Palestinians by the IDF. youtube.com/shorts/dFpSP...
