2025’s surge in Type A/B/C/D & MBTI searches shows a growing push for self-insight, fueled by TikTok filters & workplace tests. Fascination is outrunning evidence—science & ethics must catch up to balance hype and data. #googletrends#MBTI#PersonalityTypes
#Populisten hebben een #crisis nodig om hun positie te versterken. Ze creëren en benadrukken crisissen om zo hun boodschap te legitimeren en de aandacht te vestigen op hun eenvoudige oplossingen. #populisme#politiek

Umberto Eco, who owned 50,000 books, had this to say about home libraries:
"It is foolish to think that you have to read all the books you buy, as it is foolish to criticize those who buy more books than they will ever be able to read. It would be like saying that you should use all the cutlery or glasses or screwdrivers or drill bits you bought before buying new ones.
"There are things in life that we need to always have plenty of supplies, even if we will only use a small portion.
"If, for example, we consider books as medicine, we understand that it is good to have many at home rather than a few: when you want to feel better, then you go to the 'medicine closet' and choose a book. Not a random one, but the right book for that moment. That's why you should always have a nutrition choice!
"Those who buy only one book, read only that one and then get rid of it. They simply apply the consumer mentality to books, that is, they consider them a consumer product, a good. Those who love books know that a book is anything but a commodity."
This is tremendously exciting stuff. The pattern in the coins was clear, but without the metal analysis we couldn't test any hypotheses to work out what it meant.
