      Every right wing and moderate news outlet in Latin America is shouting about fraud. It is insane. From Reddit to Facebook, they are pushing content against Maduro like crazy.

      It is hellish now. FUCK Amerikkka and their vassals.

    Well, several close friends reached out to end their friendship with me because I won’t vote for Kamala.

    Returned from holiday. Still have a week off from work before it is back to the grind.

    I returned to my balcony plants who have taken off in the last two weeks. I planted some nearly dead supermarket mint and it went really wild. A pumpkin appeared too. Several other herbs are doing great as well and they are attracting lots of insects.

    Have a great week everyone.

    Wolves have returned to The Netherlands (just a few though) and it is interesting to see how much detached to actual wilderness the average Dutch person is. A supposed wolf bumped into a child in a ‘forest’ today and there is a total panic now. Don’t go outside with your kids! We need to shoot the wolf!

    Part of it is because we live in a small country I think. But the biggest part of it is that we treat our country like one big farm property and as a result we have very little actual nature left. Dutch people see the outdoors as nothing more than a path to take a walk in with no danger at all. Because there is none. Forests get designed, paths get carved out, the furthest you can be from a road in The Netherlands is I think 11km or something like that.

    I noticed this on my holiday as well. I was hiking on a mountain path along a stream carved into the mountain some hundreds of years ago. At some point we saw some Dutch people ahead of us and they were loud and started throwing rocks into the stream, causing it to clog and spill over the side of the mountain to below. The complete direspect people have for nature in this country should be studied. Not only are you being a dick, you are also being a danger to the area causing floods and a fucking waterfall to slide down a mountain with loose rocks on it.

    There is also a tv show I watch about B&B owners abroad looking for love. There is this woman in it who owns a hotel like thing in South Africa’s wilderness. In comes a Dutch man and while he is driven to this resort accompanied by a ranger, he tells the ranger that it would be a nice thing to set up a mountain biking company in Kruger National Park. You know, the park with the lions and rhinos and elephants and crocs and leopards and stuff. The ranger looked at him like he was a complete fucking idiot.

    We act as if we completely own the world. As if it is our personal theme park to have fun in, instead of actual wilderness with biodiversity and wild animals and stuff.

      This sounds similar to the UK. I’ve heard it called an ecological desert and almost everywhere you go feels very much like paths through some meadow or woods to take a stroll through. I would hope it’s not like this everywhere since they still have a few large natural parks, but from the little I’ve seen, it sounds like what you’re describing.

      We act as if we completely own the world. As if it is our personal theme park to have fun in, instead of actual wilderness with biodiversity and wild animals and stuff.

      Yep, the hubris and arrogance of westerners in their relationship to nature is staggering. My coworkers are some of the most disrespectful people towards the environment I’ve ever seen. Drinking water from plastic bottles instead of filling up their glasses from the water cooler because it takes fewer trips to the kitchen, and throwing them in the nearest trash can instead of walking an extra 30 seconds to the recycling. I know in the grand scheme of things this isn’t what’s causing the climate catastrophe, but still I think it speaks volumes about these people

      the mistake that many people do is forget that all Muslim majority countries were or are still colonized, a large part of the bigotry in the regions comes from colonialism.

      I think, in general, white people should just talk to mulsims more often. We have a lot of muslim members in our party and we are strong advocates of LGBTQ+ rights. I have an indoor football group with several muslim men as well as gay men. No problem at all. I have muslim coworkers who don’t care about our LGBTQ+ coworkers at all.

      It’s like they are people with all kinds of different opinions.
