Would be nice if someone invented an anti-nail growth serum, these things are too much work and there's like 10 of them

“Je zult maar op D66 hebben gestemd,” zei ik tegen een vriend die D66 heeft gestemd. Het boeide hem eigenlijk niet. “Nederland is nu eenmaal een rechts land. Wen er maar aan,” zei hij. Tja.

Marsupials previously thought extinct for millennia discovered in New Guinea The chances of finding one mammal species thought to be lost was ‘almost zero’ and finding two is ‘unprecedented’, biologist Tim Flannery says

Turns out there are good reasons to leave some places to be wild.

Echt. Voor wat kwartjes iets stoppen wat gewoon goed is. Beter voor mensen, beter voor de omgeving en ook financieel slimmer.

If you're doomscrolling, guess what? So far there are 51 kākāpō chicks hatched and thriving this season, the same number of birds as we had in TOTAL in the 90s! Only one chick has died and there are still fertile eggs waiting to hatch!

De landelijke kwaliteitseisen zouden al voor voldoende bescherming zorgen, schrijft het Ministerie van Infrastructuur en Waterstaat in een brief. Dat is opmerkelijk, want datzelfde ministerie concludeerde anderhalf jaar geleden het tegenovergestelde. buff.ly/DEOiLZV

I'll always remember Kristi Noem for the "Meth. We're on it." campaign.

Oh de cirkel had ik niet gezien. Maar ik vermoed het houden niet waard (zelf ook tweedehands gekocht, je komt 'm tweedehands heel veel tegen en dat zegt al wat - sowieso niet handig zo'n heel generiek kookboek denk ik)

Welke is 'dit'? Dat hele dikke vegan boek? Die moet ik nog lezen en daar heb ik nog niks uit gekookt (en gaat mogelijk op de weg stapel)

Also considering getting closed shelves because open shelves in a kitchen without an extractor fan (is that the right word?) is ehr... not great

Still want to shed more but I've been away for about half of the past 6 months and I am TIRES so it's slow going

Three Billy bookcases, two wider but not full width and one narrow, one the wider cases is almost empty of cookbooks and now filled with dusty trinkets.

All these shelves used to be full but with all the people almost dying around me the past year and a half stuff makes me feel bogged down so I am slowly selling off a lot

Gen Z men twice as likely as baby boomers to believe wives should obey husbands Global survey shows young men hold more traditional views about gender roles than older generations

Disturbing survey which shows the harm Andrew Tate, Jordan Peterson, Charlie Kirk, and all the TradLife influencers have done to young people. Restrictive gender roles and expectations harm everyone.

De Week Zonder Vlees mag geen Week Zonder Vlees meer heten: ‘Elke zweem van betutteling moet vermeden worden’ Campagne: Na acht jaar krijgt de Week Zonder Vlees een nieuwe naam die minder weerstand moet oproepen: Wissel ’ns Wat! Kritiek is er ook: „Vlees eten blijft de norm. Zo schiet het niet op.”

gemiste kans voor open doel: de betutteling is dat de agrolobby het in de EU voor elkaar heeft gekregen dat je geen vegaburger meer mag zeggen omdat er helemaal geen burgers in zitten

Polymarket has created a market that would monetize a nuclear attack amid increasing concerns that bets are happening among government insiders who can make military decisions.

What stage of the apocalypse is this?
