Beetje vreemd om de warmste jaren weg te laten. Op andere locaties lijkt dit ook een extremer jaar te zijn, kouder op sommige plaatsen, veel heter op andere, de grafiek van de huidig opkomende El Nino is nog extremer dan normaal. Zal wel een onstuimig najaar en vroege winter worden.

The Johan Cruyff Foundation does some great work, but this was a mistake. This was a perfect grasfield in which all kinds of games were played (including football) by kids of all abilities. They turned it into a plastic and concrete gambling advertisement...

I hope this behaviour that shows the tadpoles become carnivorous soon, otherwise I can't sit in the garden in a month time with all those mosquito larvae.

I do not like the fact that LEGO nowadays leaves so little to the imagination, design and engineering skills of the builders, but I must say those same skills are used by the LEGO designers themselves to make absolutely wonderful kits!

Uit de stemwijzer. Dit is wel een heel erg ongelukkige formulering... Ik snap wel wat ze bedoelen, maar wat hier letterlijk staat kan in geen paar miljoen jaar. Lucht is 78% stikstof en dat kun je niet veranderen als mensheid. Pijnlijk! Dit moet echt even aangepast! @prodemos.bsky.social

Volgens het CBS is het kelderen weer gedaald,bent andere woorden de instroom stijgt weer. Maar goed, het doet er ook niet toe, zelfs als je migratie een probleem vind, en om wat voor reden dan ook asiel migratie nog een groter probleem vind, dan nog zijn deze rellen onzin. www.cbs.nl/nl-nl/dossie...

My commute is a 16 km cycle ride taking me 1 h or 90 minutes bus ride or (in morning and evening traffic) a 45 minutes drive. In the car I get annoyed, in the bus I can work and read but cycling I have the best views.
