D66 has won the Dutch general elections. The party can no longer be overtaken by Geert Wilders’ PVV. This is according to an analysis by the ANP election service. The party led by Rob Jetten may also win a residual seat, thus surpassing Geert Wilders's party in terms of seats. 🥂🍾🇳🇱

So what would Hild wear? The radical symmetry of Cuthbert's cross would appeal to her, but she's much richer than he was—and royal. So she might have considered very simple but richer version, with thick gold and large, foiled garnet for the arms and a big central cabochon garnet 3/n

Just what nature needs right now - genomic slop masquerading as conservation.
Of course mainstream media keeps rolling over for Colossal, providing uncritical hype and coverage in exchange for exclusivity and “wow.” What Colossal is doing is wrong and they can’t even deliver what they promise. How many times do we have to go over this?

I woke up at 5am and decided to go to the bathroom. On the way back to bed, a certain black lay down on the floor so that I tripped over him and went down like a garbage bag full of bacon grease. The entire left side of my body is one big bruise and my left knee isn't speaking to me. Fuck #Caturday
