Ironically, most pop is in English, whereas most pop listeners are not English speakers.

You’ve got a point there.

Stop eating meat and diary products. Better for the climate too.

Haendel’s Messiah. I have seen it live a dozen times, never fails to impress.

The Netherlands is slowly sinking beneath the waves, this is going to be verrry expensive. So if they worry so much about money, fixing the climate is probably more useful than fixing the current economy (or migration for that matter).

Pro Tip! Leave communities with nasty interactions and block people. Cancel culture does wonders. Overall, though, my interactions are usually very pleasant, the atmosphere here is more positive than on Reddit or other social platforms.

I’m old and have studied history extensively. Life on our planet has improved. Life expectancy is way up, hunger, slavery, discrimination much less - multiple studies show this. We are on the brink of a world war. In 10,20 years from now, you will think about today as the happy times - make a note of it.

Never done that. You should focus as much as possible on the value you bring to the organization.

I guess this is news, although it does little for me. Or for the people mourning the victims.

People have fallen victim to the wilders narrative. Wouldn’t it help to take a deep breath, a step back and look at the data… for instance, the number of asylum seekers is going down (for many different reasons, eg frontex has put up a formidable wall, and the conflicts in Syria and Afghanistan stopped etc), but the right wing and populism are on the rise. I can understand this causes confusion but the danger to Dutch (or European) democracy is now coming from another direction: rightwing extremist terror is increasing. That’s what the statistics and data clearly show. The way Wilders toppled the government was a disgrace, this guy is not a statesman but a Trump-like charlatan, hobnobbing it with Le Pen, orban, Meloni - all anti-democrats.

Im sure Trump will always claim to have won.

Seeking asylum obviously isn’t the issue - xenophobia and many years of propaganda by Wilders / PVV are.

At a party, the election of the best made up drag queen had to be moved to the kitchen.

Dave Lee Roth out of Van Halen. He worked as a crew member on emergency ambulances for many years in between.

Don’t go there.

Because they live on an island.

Because you get it back in the form of services and perks.
