@vivscontent@annietime Dat zinnetje is populair bij de politie geloof ik; gaan mijn nekharen van overeind staan en ik denk dat dat ook de bedoeling is. De arrogantie druipt van zo'n zin af.
I'm not from the UK but have been there for long and still no stranger, always when I see the flag, it gives me a warm feeling, it reminds me of everything I can thank that wonderful country for, it feels like my 2nd home and it is. All respect for that flag and let me not ever see someone disrespecting it!
This is really worrying to me. In a democracy and a country that pretends to support free speech, it should be normal that people support views that are not mine or just partly mine and not just what is 100% mine.
I sure don't agree with many things from Reform UK but I agree with even less that Starmer and his party say, yet both also say and do things I agree with. When you don't allow this "democracy" of thoughts in your heart, you support dictatorship. As long as people are not name calling swearing or behave rude, I don't care what they vote, agree on or think; I can maybe learn from it; about others, about myself (why don't I agree or...why do I agree?).
unbelievable, in the meanwhile is a manipulated picture of Charlie Kirk being shot, neck wound and all perfectly fine, I reported it multiple times as it is posted multiple times by the same account, even tagging Erika Kirk in it. Every time I hear there's nothing wrong with it. I'm not even the only one reporting it.
Not just elderly, everyone who does not want such device and does not need it. I hear more and more people being in their early 20' up to people in their 40' turning away from "smart"phones; it are the 60+ who stick to them in my experience, as many think they look younger when having one and rely heavily on the internet.
I find out just now as there's no way to contact them where they seem to block websites. I only see bluesky, had to look up what that again was for sure. Yes....the super woke, censorship loving copy of X, supporting age verification and all that. That tells me that Firefox most likely can't be trusted any more.
Where did you go to if I may ask?
I always say deport the criminals, sure when they were not born here. No mercy. I've seen different skin colours doing disgusting things. I don't care who or what or about their colour of skin, where their crib was. I speak out against all kinds of violence and discrimination. Often resulting in people getting angry because I sure have no idea about racism, I've no idea about being black or am a traitor while also not having an idea about being white etc. People just read what they want to read.
I know all about being white with black grandparents that hated me for being so white. I endured severe abuse from both skin colours. I've been helped by black people as I was left behind in my wheelchair at the edge of a steep stairway by white classmates and behind me another stairway, my wheelchair just fitted. I ended up in that wheelchair being attacked by white people. I've been abused by a child trafficker because I was only white. Being of a mixed background I know all to well that humans are humans: they are racist, discriminate, hate, abuse and there are the opposites and everything in between.
That does not mean I don't see what is going on with the mass migration of the past years. When I don't mention any single option, it does not mean I don't know it, I just don't write a book, only a chapter like this. The rest I leave to the intelligence of the reader.
Kick back those who misbehave, like most of the single men being actively imported in many countries. And give them the natives who misbehave as well; let them finish each other off or rob or whatever in their own city.
Cholesterol is the most important part of your brain, people with high levels are having healthy brains and not clogged arteries. Your liver produces it as needed to repair vessels for instance. Artery clogging is not depending on cholesterol but cholesterol can rise with damaged arteries. Why they get damaged? Food can do that. The only good fats for your body are: coconut (not refined), olive oil, avocado oil, real butter and ghee. In the views of many peanut and rice oil are acceptable and bits of sesame too; not too often though.
Skip all the other oils.
It is saddening (and maddening!), It is so easy to make yourself as well, please do so and get rid of all this poison.
Peanutbutter: peanuts, you may roast them, or you don't but you grind them until they start to get oily. If you want pieces in it, you add some peanuts later. If you like, you add salt. The blender does all the work for you and you know exactly what you've put in it.
Cacao and cacao butter can be added if you wish: experiment!
It sounds nice and I think it could be nice like in this example but what I mainly see is fools who have zero knowledge about a culture or a country, going to start fights projecting their laws and unwritten laws to the other culture.
There should be an opt out, I have no problems with pressing "translate" but I do have problems with people who start to swear at me in their own language, thinking they are the norm. With my professional account I don't want anybody who isn't capable of reading the language I post in. I find that way worse than an account being based in wherever I'm not, an expat maybe or someone with a mixed background or who studies Chinese cultures or French or American cultures, is a journalist. Those accounts many Americans want to block from their accounts.
Besides this, learning languages should be encouraged. Don't depend on translations. People will not learn there are other cultures, they judge, ridicule and project their own standards, that is what I mostly see. When I'm interested in Japanese accounts, I follow them. To be honest, I tend to block accounts not responding in the language of the post they respond to, especially when they project, no matter if I agree with them.
The idea is nice and I can totally get what you say about connecting people but that is not what humans are....somehow many want division and feel superior.
I prefer to click translate and don't get automated translations, I want to be exposed to different languages and be aware of the cultural background when I read something. Nothing more inspiring than seeing all kinds of languages and scripts!! 😍
That difference can all have to do with the fact that girls are often treated as if they are infantile: sit straight, go to ballet, eat with your mouth closed and most girls are on dance classes. Boys are not, the amount of boys (and adult men) who can't decently eat but slobber and eat with their mouth open is stunning. You see it a lot, women doing it is rare.
Is that how they are raised? For a huge part: yes! As you see with different cultures and subcultures. I know girls not being send to dance classes or music lessons who would perfectly fit between those boys and boys who have attended dance classes would fit between the girls. Unfortunately we still see dance for boys as "gay", in the negative way, despite everyone talking about being inclusive and blah blah; they too wouldn't want that for a boy. I know them personally, parents who forbid their sons to go dancing or do gymnastics, ballet.
Herkenbaar! Ik communiceer voornamelijk in Engels en Duits en zelden Nederlands, daarom vind ik het wel fijn om nog wat Nederlands tegen te komen, dat mis ik wel eens. Ik ben heeeeel goed in "ie" als "ei" te tikken, vooral als ik moe ben en d-t is alleen maar erger geworden sinds ik niet meer dagelijks met Nederlands te maken heb.
Inderdaad rare tijden, als niet bizar eigenlijk!
Ik heb een bloedhekel aan msm en mijd het zoveel mogelijk. Geen nieuws behalve hier via X en substacks van onafhankelijke journalisten, wetenschappers. Maar teveel is slecht voor mijn humeur zoals u al heeft kunnen merken. Sorry als ik wat blaffend overkwam, dat was zo niet bedoeld maar teruglezend vind ik zelf wel dat ik dat deed, moet ik niet doen.
Ai, ik dacht ff dat "bruine Drek" was gericht aan het adres van immigranten..... Als iemand van gemixte achtergrond ben ik niet hypergevoelig voor discriminatie van welke kant dan ook (want beide zijn er goed in al mag ik dat sinds kort niet meer zeggen) en wilde al een grap maken maar zag Nausica staan en dacht: o die....neemt nog iemand dat kind serieus dan?
Inderdaad, op basis waarvan maar daar is Nausica goed in meen ik me te herinneren: dingen lezen die er niet zijn en niet even herlezen of nadenken, die was gelijk gaan schelden over "bruine drek".... maf mens maar wel een heel schadelijk maf mens.
En? Wat voor verf gaat dat dan zijn? Een smerig chemisch geproduceerd, giftig goedje? Smeriger dan acryl verf wat bij de productie enorme milieuschade veroorzaakt en bij gebruik goed is voor ik weet niet hoeveel nanodeeltjes plastic?
Nog wat vragen die een goede journalist wil weten en zou moeten stellen. Ik heb begrepen dat jullie denken dat je journalostiek bedrijven (nooit gezien maar ik mis wat in jullie schrijven dus ik geef even wat voorbeelden)
Wat voor pigment wordt er gebruikt? En welk effect heeft dat voor de persoon die dit over zich heen krijgt, lange termijn gezondheids implicaties? Ik vergeet nooit meer de onschuldige omstander die tegen een betonnen muur werd geknalt en een schedelbasisfractuur opliep; wat voor extra schade zou verf hebben opgeleverd?
Wat als die substantie ingeademd wordt? Of in het maagdarm kanaal terecht komt? In de ogen of oren? Zou ik toch willen weten als journalist.
Wat met de verf die op de straat, op planten en in perkjes terecht komt? Welk effect heeft dat op de daar (van) levende wezens? Welk milieu effect heeft dat? Wat voor effect heeft het voor straatmeubilair, auto's, fietsen, huizen en andere persoonlijke eigendommen en publieke objecten, betaald van ons belasting geld?
Ik vrees dat dit van hetzelfde denk niveau is als dat tuig dat de smerigste, goedkoopste verf gebruikt om hun zorgen over het klimaat te uiten en intussen alles en iedereen schade toebrengt met hun verf en lijm.
Naar mijn weten is er geen permanente verf die goedkoop te produceren is (want dat is de eis neem ik aan, anders heeft het geen zin) op natuurlijke basis en met gezonde pigmenten.
Zo, als dit niet inspirerend is voor jullie om onafhankelijk journalistiek onderzoek naar te doen, weet ik het niet meer. Dit is wat je moet weten voor je er zelfs maar over nadenkt. Geen idee wie David van Weel is maar erg snugger komt ie niet over, wel als een typisch schoothondje.
