@DieTukkerfries FvD was 7 jaar geleden nog de grootste en nu doet de media alsof ze een enorme opmars maken. Nee, als die gestoorde rechtse partijen elkaar afwisselen elke verkiezing kan je dat élke keer wel het verhaal maken.

@kitty3542 Ventileren over hoge parkeerkosten, of slecht weer? Logisch.
In detail de vermeende aanranding van je kleinkind beschrijven? Raar.
Nederlands
Nou, hoor ik net dat mijn kleindochter van 5! Op school door een groep jongetjes belaagd word, gedwongen haar broek naar beneden moet doen en moet kussen. Je kan wel nagaan dat mijn zoon helemaal over de zeik is. Ze zal thuis blijven tot dit grondig onderzocht is.

@JournalistCisca Je hebt echt geen idee hoeveel liever ik die bezorgers in dit land heb dan bejaarden.

Ik ben 72 jaar, ben hier geboren, spreek al mijn hele leven Nederlands. Nou moet ik ineens met de bezorger van PicNic in het Engels converseren… Wat gaat hier verkeerd? 🤔🙀🙀🙀

@lukeisamazing Peacefully absorbing while China has invasion excersizes like every few months?
English
China peacefully absorbing Taiwan while the US does nothing to stop it is going to permanently break the minds of so many libs. we’re going to have thousands of neoliberal Jokers running around the world with the exact same “stabbed in the back” origin story

@HikariTaiyo_ch Watching my girlfriend march past everything playing Skyrim because she "had a mission" and killing a dragon at like lvl 1 was a humbling experience.
I can't do that. I was in awe.
English
My husband was giggling and calling me cute because I was playing World of Warcraft with him and being all like "okay, I gotta go here and turn in this quest and then go here!!~"
He said he's never seen someone play WoW for the first time with that much whimsy.

Do men actually like when their girl plays video games with them?

@RobinPoedev I dont want to reignite the console/PC shit, but this is what happens if you pretend console gamers are actual gamers.
You get these fake mobile game commercials games.

I just want people to acknowledge how ugly this game looks

You can stack the powers of 5-6 weapons on a single build in Crimson Desert and let's just say the results are...crazy.

There is no good solution for the active and agitated dementia patient.
The Washington Post@washingtonpost
U.S. nursing homes are fabricating schizophrenia diagnoses to hide their use of dangerous antipsychotic drugs to subdue dementia patients, a government watchdog report found. The drugs increase risk of falls, strokes and death. wapo.st/4tfSUsr

@lisavsworld "Literal meaning of words" do you say you watch a movie? Or do you day you watch, listen to and read a movie?
If you had soup do you say you ate or drank.
Words dont have literal meanings.
English
People think I'm anti-audiobook. I am not. I am just anti-changing the literal meaning of words. That being said, convinced two people to listen to this book today. They have no idea what it is about. So excited for them to have the experience I had reading it! 😭

So glad everyone is finally on board with Project Hail Mary. I've been trying to get people to read it for months.

@aRishisays @TheStalwart @amar_reganti @tracyalloway They have Russia and Ukraine in mind who have been pummeling each others infrastructure for years.
English
@TheStalwart @amar_reganti @tracyalloway People miss the asymmetric nature of this war - it can take a decade to build what’s destroyed in 6-8 weeks - probably because they have the swift post Covid recovery in mind. But what they forget is that there was no infrastructure loss in 2020. This time is truly different.
English
Every single day that this war goes on, the more the economic damage just compounds. This is the key line right here from @tracyalloway bloomberg.com/news/newslette…

@ripplebrain Gulf states are going to contract international engineering companies to do their work, those will take 5 years but use way less ductape.

You are severely underestimating the innate slavic aptitude and passion for repairing machinery
Yaroslav Trofimov@yarotrof
An observation from watching more than three years of Ukrainian strikes on Russian refineries, oil export terminals and pipeline nodes. They burn spectacularly and cinematically. But Russia — under sanctions and without access to Western spare parts and technologies — has more or less managed to mitigate the impact and repair most of the damage. Gulf states, with all their resources, can fix things infinitely faster.

@PositivFuturist If doctors are always going for the cheapest treatment, to the point theyd kill you, they could just not treat you now.
English
This is a valid argument for assisted dying.
But you know how nowadays you lightly bump your car and your insurer immediately declares it a write off because they can't be bothered to even investigate a repair?
Yeah
Sammy-Jo Luxton@sammyjoluxton1
My grandad had bowel + prostate cancer - he was so unwell, in agonising pain every day, being fed medication to knock him out 24/7. He begged us to kill him, every day said he couldn’t wait to die. I know he would have loved to have the option to go peacefully on his terms 😅

@justindenharder Goede test, als je te dom bent voor het nieuwe stembiljet wil ik ook niet perse dat je stemt.

@hissgoescobra Also their only job was to make it contested, to make it cost, to force the US to kill them and other allies.
English
They did exactly what they should have. Many uninformed takes claimed the U.S. would just roll over NATO, when in fact they have a larger land army than the U.S. and specialize in Arctic warfare. It is appalling and shameful we put them through this.

1/ Denmark was reportedly preparing for full-scale war with the US over Greenland in January, with military support from France, Germany, and Nordic nations. Elite troops and F-35 jets with live ammunition were sent, and runways were to be blown up to prevent an invasion. ⬇️
English
@amuse @WarMonitor3 You're asking why Denmark didn't declare war on the US? Are you an idiot?
English
@WarMonitor3 The US military has occupied Greenland since the 40s. Denmark sent a few dozen soldiers? Why didn’t they attack the US base on the island?
English
Denmark had seriously prepared for a possible US attack on Greenland earlier this year, troops that were sent under the guise of exercise were equipped with explosives and prepared to blow key runways and bridges-DR
Wow...

@Timmetie Of je nu 18 bent en niet ingelezen bent of 88. Dat maakt me geen flikker uit, als je hier al lang woont en deelneemt aan de maatschappij is dat nu eenmaal zo.

Blijf het echt bizar vinden dat studenten die tijdelijk in een stad wonen, mogen mee stemmen over wat er moet gebeuren in die stad.
Bedoel, sommige zijn al na 2 jaar weg.

@TheMindScourge Firstly, the gulf states have nothing except oil and gas, they hardly have a population of their own.
Secondly, how do you mean can only be used once? You think the gulf states will just stop using the gulf afte this?
English
Hormuz is a weapon that can only be fired once
No one should expect a quick resolution to the current crisis, but across the next decade, even the next 3-5 years, the choke point of Hormuz will be massively substituted for
The Gulf Arab states are all very rich, with high per capita GDP - the best single measure of relative state capacity - easy access to global markets, especially financial, and have the favorable backing of the US
Everyone has known about the Hormuz vulnerability for decades. The Iranians have continually hinted around closing it, but never did. Now they have, but Hormuz is a gun that cannot be reloaded.
Deterrents work only up to the point of use. Once used, they have failed. The purpose of a deterrent is to *not* be used
Many analysts have made this basic mistake. They think that Iran is now in a position of strength, having exercised its Hormuz option. But the opposite is true. A state is weakest after it has used its deterrent. The cost of that deterrence is now priced in. The worst having been done, the targets of the deterrent are now free to make other arrangements. Before, they were reluctant to do so because of the switching costs. Now, they have no choice; they will not allow themselves to be controlled in this way again
Hormuz may never reopen. But the importance of this is a depreciating asset.

@TkeeTennessee Who could have known right, not like this was his 3d election.

I’ve had this post pinned to my profile since early November 2024 because of what it represented to me: my daughter’s first time exercising her right to vote. My belief, despite having doubts, in the democratic process. My belief in a movement and person I felt would fight for real change. I recently unpinned it given what I am experiencing … feelings of betrayal, confusion, anger, gullibility. And instead of fellow patriots understanding these very real feelings MANY are experiencing, we are met with insults (doomer, panican, libtard) completely unwarranted and childish AF. I’ll say it again, it takes a helluva lot more courage to go against the grain than to be a simp for it. RIP to the America I longed for and tried to believe in. 😢

My girl just voted for the first time! Question: she had to turn her shirt inside out as we were told it was illegal to wear a political shirt to vote. Is that true????
