They qualify because they’re a country in the Dutch kingdom. The same way Scotland and England are both a part of the UK. You can pick to play where your parents are from or where you’re from. The Dutch team also has players from Curaçao. This rule isn’t even new, it’s 22 years old. Hope this helps.
Any player who refers to art. 5 par. 1[note 1] to assume a new nationality and who has not played international football [in a match (either in full or in part) in an official competition of any category or any type of football] shall be eligible to play for the new representative team only if he fulfils one of the following conditions:
a) He was born on the territory of the relevant association;
b) His biological mother or biological father was born on the territory of the relevant association;
c) His grandmother or grandfather was born on the territory of the relevant association;
d) He has lived continuously for at least five years after reaching the age of 18 on the territory of the relevant association.

One of the most amazing things I’ve ever gotten to experience. I’m so proud of the Curaçao mens national football team. You truly made our island so proud. Phew, the way I sobbed through the national anthem.
Curaçao and Germany’s giant flags (a third of the pitch each) are rolled out before the start of their World Cup matchup. This is Curaçao’s first ever appearance at the World Cup, becoming the smallest country to do so.

What is happening with this arrow? Is it a major featue?
Microsoft training screenshot with a borked up arrow in a git flow chart. There is also a typo that says "major featue for next release" which is likely an AI-generated typo.

Nationalities change as countries do (oh hey, all player hold a Dutch passport, shocking) but if you want accuracy go look at the roster and that’s all not even all of it.
A roster that shows both Dutch and Curaçao nationality which still falls under a Dutch passport because we’re a part of the kingdom!

I’ll pick red onions pickled with lime juice and salt over vinegar and sugar any day, and while I do love both but the first is therapeutic. Paired with tandoori chicken 😍. More details in the alt text of the image.
A bowl of chunky red onions, salt, and key limes quarters (easier to squeeze than regular limes).  I left the quarters in there for a quicker pickle and I don’t have to heat any vinegar or dissolve sugar for this.

I had beech mushrooms I needed to use, so I made a stir fry of a coconut aminos, ginger, garlic, and homemade chili crisp oil sauce and sautéed in farm sorrel and broccolini, cashews, and more garlic, 🍄‍🟫, and topped with sesame seeds, Thai basil, sprouts, and more cashews on rice noodles. It was 💯.
Bowl of the stir fry that turned out really restaurant quality to me.

Final outcome after some airfried corn tortillas, lime squeeze,and more fresh cilantro added to the mix. Oh, and I added some celery to the broth earlier, too! And yes this is how I’m trying to cope with everything.

Look at my fluffy, round cat.
Leela, my one-eyed Siamese, sitting upright on a duvet with the sun shining on her face. She’s looking grumpy, but that’s just her face. She’s not actually grumpy. She’s just soft.

The energy I bring to bluesky
Me, in jeans, a tank top, and a oversized jean jacket, standing in front of a Halloween backdrop which shows papers, red yarn, and the words “Pepe Silvia” and “Carol”. This is an attempt to reenactment the popular meme of Charlie Day in “Always Sunny in Philadelphia”. I also use this meme when I’m working on mental models and information architecture.
