It is a very good app. Unlike many others, it never lies.

Joe Jackson. He seems like such an utter dick that I'll turn off the radio when any of his songs come on.

"Is she really going out with him?"
Buddy, at least she's not dating your whiny ass.

De Steenstraat.

"The stream is crowded, so ringing the doorbell isn't possible. However, you're always welcome to watch."

Thank you Mister Visdeurbel ☺️

When I was in uni (in the Nlds) there were several older people taking the same classes. I've never heard of it being looked down on here, more a case of "If you have the time, interest and money, why not?"
My Mum started an art history course at 79 just for the fun of it. She's having a blast.

It gets my vote 🥳

Wondering now if the entire list correlates to that dimension, or what else is going on. I'm a bit surprised to see the Nlds and France be so far apart, and wondering what we do not have in common.
Should get my book off the shelf for a reread.

It makes it less likely that Paramount will survive this takeover, like a snake choking to death trying to swallow a horse.

And if overvalued AI constitutes most of their collateral for these loans, Paramount is even more at risk of crumbling under the pressure.

As I understand it, the rating of a debt indicates the likelihood of it being repaid. So junk status here means they will probably default, so to cover his risk the loaning co will either raise interest rates or sell the debt on for less than the face value to get at least something back.

Jammer inderdaad, ze is erg kundig. Maar ik kan me voorstellen dat ze het mooi geweest vindt, de afgelopen jaren zullen zwaar zijn geweest.

Die ja. Gaat misschien niet zo goed samen met mijn kat, maar 's zomers minder muggen in huis lijkt me heerlijk.

Ik heb ZO genoten. Ik hou van wereldbollen, heb er een aantal in huis, en om dan ongegeneerd een half uur een Mercator globe te kunnen bestuderen zonder iemand in de weg te staan, of de Coronelli wereldbol (niet echt functioneel, maar wel heel indrukwekkend) van dichtbij te zien... Hemels.

Vitrines vol wereldbollen in een vrijwel verlaten museum

Het Globe Museum in Wenen. Blijkbaar zo niche dat ik het geluk had er urenlang vrijwel in mijn eentje rond te mogen zwerven. Echt een cadeautje 😊

Had je deze al gezien?

Eigenlijk een haas (of een pterodactyl), maar wel wat raar.

Same. Spring comes with crocuses and daffodils, not with calculations and calendars.

Spring is a mood.

Balen 😕

You have entered wait mode...

Als het kan doe ik dat liever gelijk 's ochtends. Dan ben je er daarna van af.

Yes, I didn't see that the head was on the left at first 😄 Made a lot more sense once it clicked!

Ik vind dit soort gemiddelden erg flauw, alsof er geen uitschieters zijn en het totaal niet koud is geweest. Voelt als gaslighting en goochelen met cijfers.

I downloaded an app last Spring to identify the pollinators I got on my native plants. At first I was disappointed that the first what I though bee was in fact a fly. Someone more knowledgeable than me helped me realise that bee pollinators are just as important as bees!

Next to a chicken 😄

Ik wil wel een reptiel hebben. Zo eentje die over het plafond loopt en muggen eet.

Ik wil gewoon een keertje wakker worden en niet gelijk online gaan wat voor ergs er nu weer gebeurd is. "May you live in interesting times" is echt een vervloeking.

A circular infographic chart categorizing cheeses by type of milk and texture. At the center, four sections are labeled cow, sheep, goat, and buffalo, radiating outward into concentric rings for textures: soft, semi-soft, semi-hard, and hard. Each cheese name is placed within its corresponding segment, with illustrated wedges of cheese circling the outer edge. Cow’s milk occupies the largest portion, featuring well-known varieties like Brie, Camembert, Taleggio, Havarti, Gouda, Cheddar, and Parmesan. Sheep’s milk includes cheeses such as Roquefort, Manchego, and Pecorino Romano. Goat’s milk features options like Chèvre, Crottin de Chavignol, and Humboldt Fog. Buffalo is represented by Mozzarella di Bufala Campana and Buffalo Blue. The cheeses are organized visually so that softer varieties appear closer to the center and harder ones toward the edge. Small colored drawings show each cheese’s texture, rind, and tone, from creamy whites and soft rounds to golden blocks, crumbly wedges, and blue-veined interiors. The background is a deep charcoal gray, making the warm oranges, yellows, and creams of the cheeses stand out clearly.

EVERYONE STOP

Yeah, we pretty much get a prefilled tax form (wages, assets, debts, etc), then all you have to do is check the numbers and click Send.

Moest er wel om lachen 😄
