Rob @dutchengelsman.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Visited the vampires again today for another successful blood donation. If you’re able to, join me in becoming a donor: it’s quick and (pretty) painless, it helps save people’s lives, and (perhaps most convincingly) you get some free snacks after! 2121

Rob @dutchengelsman.bsky.social · 01/09/2026It’s such a good book - by far one of my favourite reads of the past couple of years, a real page turner. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it as much as I (and pretty much everyone else I know who’s read it) did! 130
Rob @dutchengelsman.bsky.social · 30/08/2026Me thinking they’d at least spared us in Europe/non-English-language users… until I clicked on it 🙂 When will this insanity end? 080
Rob @dutchengelsman.bsky.social · 28/08/2026And it’s so good to see that, unlike what the Right tell us, when people are given the chance to succeed (rather than worked against at every step) that they can do just that! It was so good to see him so excited, so well integrated and so passionate for life 🥹 010
Reposted by RobJesse Klaver @jesseklaver.progressiefnederland.nl · 28/08/2026Het kabinet veroorzaakt een crisis omdat het geen eerlijke bijdrage wil vragen van allerrijksten. Ondertussen wil het snoeihard bezuinigen op gewone mensen. Oneerlijk, onbegrijpelijk en volkomen onverantwoord. Daarom zeg ik: kabinet, doorbreek deze impasse. Ons land snakt naar vooruitgang. 88982289
Rob @dutchengelsman.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Seeing him and his family doing so well for themselves is both an affirmation that my work helped and a testament to his hard work and dedication: refugees want to integrate and want to contribute to society. But that will go much more smoothly with support and investment. I’m so proud of him 🥹 160
Rob @dutchengelsman.bsky.social · 28/08/2026A couple of years ago, I used to work for a local refugee centre (until the municipality stopped funding us…). Today, I bumped into one of my former “clients,” & he told me all about how things are going: his language skills are coming along, he has a job, & his kids are fully integrated at school. 170
Rob @dutchengelsman.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Crunching the numbers, this would result in the only non-minority coalition being a rainbow coalition of Labour/LibDem/Tory (considering even if the Tories were ok with it, they couldn’t form a majority) if they could stomach it. If it were to fail though… I fear what the next election would bring. 020

Rob @dutchengelsman.bsky.social · 26/08/2026She was an extraordinary musician able to write songs off the bat - and with so many bangers - but I always felt a great show of her musical talent was one of her early songs: The Bridge. A heartbreaking narrative that tells a melancholic - devastating - story with a simple melody and simple lyrics. 170
Rob @dutchengelsman.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Looks like the rest of today will just be me heartbrokenly drinking to Dolly’s music 😢😭 1160
Rob @dutchengelsman.bsky.social · 22/08/2026That’s actually all very useful - I’ll have to pass that on. I’m pretty sure it’s self-wind, which I imagine is why we can end up with these wildly incorrect times considering nobody’s really keeping an eye on things 😅 1110
Rob @dutchengelsman.bsky.social · 22/08/2026My church’s clock just seems to have an innate desire to always be wrong. It’s been fixed more times than I care to remember, but a week later, it’ll start showing the wrong time again. Google reviews generally say “lovely church, but the bells go off at all kinds of weird times”. 1200
Rob @dutchengelsman.bsky.social · 21/08/2026I’d personally prefer inconsistent, rushed or haphazard phone calls/texts than talking to a computer because my friend programmed it to send me a work-like scheduled message. I think I’d be quite hurt if someone I cared about merely saw me as a task to tick off the list of interactions for the week. 160
Rob @dutchengelsman.bsky.social · 21/08/2026But this surely removes the whole personal touch of human interaction? Friendships should be about having real conversations with each other, knowing there’s a real person on the other end of the phone, being invested in each other - no matter the time or energy it takes. 170

Rob @dutchengelsman.bsky.social · 01/08/2026Depends on who you ask. As far as I’m concerned, much better than the last PM/government, but pretty disappointing (and rather invisible lately). He formed a right-wing government - and that’s what we’re getting. (Y’all will thirst over any generic twink, won’t you?) 040
Rob @dutchengelsman.bsky.social · 01/08/2026I thought we’d established by this point that, no, I only pretend to work (Also: it’s the weekend, give a guy a break!) 160
Rob @dutchengelsman.bsky.social · 01/08/2026Didn’t expect such a potentially philosophical question: this could be natural borders (mountains, rivers), the atmosphere (earth with space), national/regional borders… but I think I’d go with “in the hearts and minds of man”. 120
