We lost a lot this year and we still have three more months left. So the universe decided to give us something. A brand new cat just dropped.

En, zijn de boeren aangehouden? Zijn de trekkers in beslag genomen? Of is het ineens toegestaan om in Nederland wegen te blokkeren? Graag antwoord, @openbaarministerie.bsky.social

A Nobel Peace Prize nomination for Minneapolis is really a recognition of people power and it’s the first time a whole city has been put forward for the prize.

AI coding tools like Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and ChatGPT are changing how we write software... but are they actually improving long-term software quality, or just accelerating short-term output? We ran a study of 150 software engineer's to find out... WATCH ➡️ youtu.be/b9EbCb5A408

As soon as I heard on the No Such Thing as a Fish podcast that there are zero 'X's on the Big Ben/Elizabeth Tower clock faces, I had to look it up to check. Surely I would have noticed that before?

Boycott the World Cup in the USA. UEFA launders power. Stadiums don’t erase detention, repression, or silenced dissent. Don’t travel. Pressure sponsors. Stand with #Greenland. Fans against #Fascism. #BoycottWorldCup #HumanRights #FootballForPeople #Resist #Europe #UEFA #USA #Denmark #Solidarit
Protest poster showing a football wrapped in a U.S. flag like a gag, lying on the ground in front of riot police under stadium floodlights. Large text calls for a boycott of the World Cup in the USA, linking football to repression, detention, and silenced dissent, with slogans urging fans not to travel and to pressure sponsors.

On the 17th of January, 1961, the US, UK and Belgium assassinated Patrice Lumumba, the first democratically elected leader of the Republic of Congo, because he sought to restore national control over the country's mineral reserves. Remember Lumumba!

De Sociale Verzekeringsbank, één van de grootste verwerkers van privégegevens van miljoenen Nederlanders gaat volledig naar MICROSOFT AZURE. Dit is geen technische keuze, maar een politieke. Een gevaarlijke! Debat moet snel. Stopknop moet worden ingedrukt! #amerika Lees 👉🏻 www.barbarakathmann.nl/svb/
Je ziet een foto van mij in de Tweede Kamer. Ik zit op een blauw stoeltje met het tweede kamerlogo in wit boven in het midden op de stoel. De stoeltjes om mij heen zijn leeg. Ik kijk in de camera. Bruine haren los. Op de foto een wit tekstvak met blauwe rand en tekst in blauwe letters. Er staat: Ze zijn in Den Haag helemaal gek geworden! Gegevens over pensioenen, AOW, kinderbijslag en nabestaandenuitkeringen gaan ook in beheer in de VS.

Nationaal socialisme is nog steeds doodeng.
ACCORDING TO DATA, IT IS MUCH MORE LIKELY THAT AN ICE AGENT HAS AN ARREST RECORD THAN AN IMMIGRANT. READ THAT AGAIN!

Trump is letterlijk de meest zielige dipshit die er de laatste decennia op aarde heeft rondgelopen. Hoe lager kan je als mens eigenlijk vallen? Pronken met de nobelprijs van een ander? En ja. Mensen die op dit soort figuren stemmen mogen ook eens in de spiegel kijken. Het zegt ook iets over hen.

Trump: "There, I fixed it: No, more wars!"
In het zwart staat er: No more wars. Maar Trump verandert de tekst en zet er een rode komma in en een uitroepteken achter waardoor er "No, more wars!" Staat. Linksachter Trump staat een bordje met Venezuela en een pijl naar rechts.
