NL. I’ve stated it here and other places before and my Bsky profile is mostly shots of my city. I am trivially easy to dox.
But, I have friends, so don’t do that please.


A small dash of sugar in savory dishes.
Grace, because you are graceful.


I Left a long time ago (for the second time) and will never go back. My kids got a far better education, my income prospects greatly improved, and life here is just …easier. Mind you I left from NYC which is everything except easy. Still love NYC but will not go back to visit under these circumstances.
My wife and I fought actively for change on the local level. It changed nothing.


His public persona is very different from his private one, and his public agenda is also different from his private one.


I’ve seen a pitbull attack and kill another dog. I’ve had plenty of encounters with dogs and never seen anything even remotely as vicious.
Dutch person here. It is kinda getting like this lately. I say this as a (responsible) ebike rider.
Mass x velocity. You’ve probably never been nearly hit by one.


Houses in NL, including my very well insulated one, do not stay stable at mid 20s in the Summer anymore even if it cools down a bit at night (and it doesn’t always).
I work from home and can tell you that trying to work in my home office when it’s 27C is no good.
I am NOT a food purist and fully support this meme, but Indonesian and Thai food are nothing alike at all.
The only thing they share in common is sate which pretty much every country in SE Asia took from Indonesia.
And I suppose congee/juk/whatever your country calls it (and now I want some even though it’s not breakfast time here)


[for anyone who doesn’t get it this is the most famous comment from Unidan who was a scientist but, alas, drunk a bit too much of his own koolaid. Other than that, he was a very cool commenter.]


As the others said, food. Specifically unsalted cashews. I called our (Dutch) bird rescue center and they said that’s the healthiest “human” food to give them.
I have three crow friends (and sometimes their buddies) who light on my balcony railing and wait for me to come out. One will eat it there while I’m watching; the other two fly it across the street to their stashes. All three will just sit on the railing and watch me work sometimes.
Sometimes the magpies show up, but they are super, ultra cautious around The Human. I can tell they know me though when they fly through the street. They make the happy magpie sound they make to their mates when one of them steals a cashew intended for the crows instead of being silent.
I get that this is illegal, but you do not have to give them a lot or make it obvious . One or two a day. You may not see them, but they will see and remember you as Cashew Guy/Gal/Nonbinary Pal.
Also alas, Unidan, where did you go?


Alexander is tripping if he thinks Turkey can ever join while Cyprus is a member.
But overall I agree with his comments. He’s a smart dude.
