Happy Pride Month to everyone in the LGBTQIA+ community! In the prism of the darkest of rain-haunted night, in moonlight we split in all colours bright. Remember, we all resolve into one. You're right to have pride. Have power in your stride. You'll be alright. #PrideMonth #LGBhugtheT #LGBTQIA+

It's sad that a day like May 17th is needed. But it will remain so, until it has become a given. Let's make it the default. Let's celebrate IDIC 🖖🏻. Let's make it so.

17th May marks International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia. Today is a reminder that LGBTQ+ individuals must be treated with the same empathy, respect and dignity as anyone else.

This is Geert Wilders to Donald Trump. A Dutch Far-Right politician. Behaving like a child. Telling on another Dutch politician, Rob Jetten. Mr. Jetten is just being correct here. And to put the cherry on top of the Fascism cake, Wilders also crawls underneath Viktor Orban's desk.
Tweet from Geert Wilder to Donald Trump about Rob Jetten.

Text from Tweet:

"Dear President @realDonaldTrump this is what the new Dutch Prime Minister @MinPres Jetten wrote about you after you won the elections in November 2024:

“Trump, a convicted criminal, becomes president of the US. A misogynist who wants to take away hard-won freedoms, such as abortion. A man who openly flirts with dictators. What lies ahead are years of chaos, division, and recklessness.”

Please don’t trust him, the man is a leftish liberal politician and an enemy of the people and he hates your guts. He is now also attacking @PM_ViktorOrban who is a thousand times better leader then Jetten himself."

Date: 22th of March 2026.
Time: 09:04 AM.



PS: Geert Wilders still has not figured out how to spell leftist.

Here is one of the few pieces of good news during the current regime in the United States. Now it's time for the other states, in this union, to become united, in this effort. And finally end child marriage. And, if you support child marriage, well, I don't think I need to state what you are.

Good, hopefully this block becomes permanent. And since this attempted barring of international students will already have done a lot of harm that won't be reversed by a block. This admin should be forced to pay for those damages. I heard Trump recently got a plane. He could sell that to pay for it.

In The Netherlands, too, academic freedom is under pressure. It is high time, that academic freedom gets enshrined into the Dutch Constitution.
Article from The Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW):

Title article: Academy: academic freedom in the Netherlands under pressure.

Introduction to article: For scientists in the Netherlands, the scope to choose their own research topic and approach is being continuously squeezed. Freedom to collaborate with foreign colleagues is also under pressure. And due to intimidation, researchers are withdrawing from the social debate. This is the verdict of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences in a report published today, in which it analyses a number of current threats against academic freedom and calls on various parties to take measures to better protect this freedom in the Netherlands.
