Politiek gewin over het leed van nabestaanden ziet er zo uit 👉🏼Wilders zei dat de verdachte een week voor de dood van Lisa is aangehouden en daarna is vrijgelaten „Dit klopt niet”, zegt de politie. „Die opmerking zorgt voor onnodige onrust bij betrokkenen en nabestaanden.”

Sometimes a picture speaks louder than words...

Kies dus in oktober met je verstand, niet je onderbuik, want wereldwijd zien we ontwikkelingen die duiden dat een democratie niet meer zo vanzelfsprekend is als dat we gewend zijn 😐

Mark Boumans #VNG over Wilders: Een landelijk politicus hitst burgers tegen een lokaal bestuur op om te voorkomen dat er een democratisch besluit wordt genomen. 👈🏼Hoe lang laat men Wilders nog doorgaan met opruien?

Living in a very light polluted city it is a challenge to capture the dark nebulas surrounding NGC7023, the Iris nebula. After 13 hours this is the result.

Today we remember the Dutch victims of WWII and all conflicts after. Also the 25 soldier who died after the USA called for NATO article 5. Stop fascist regimes before history repeats!

Ambtelijke ongehoorzaamheid zou op meer ministeries toegepast mogen worden. Ambtenaren zweren trouw aan de Grondwet, niet aan een minister die haar ondermijnt.

It's laughable that the Trump administration spent 3 month to come up with the plan that gives russia everything they want, and now they're threatening to walk away from talks.

Kindergarten level of diplomacy.

I think I need some help from an actual #astronomer like @drbecky.bsky.social. Please share if you know someone who can help me identify the high proper motion stars in my comparison of M51 with a 20 year old @spacetelescope.bsky.social HST image.

See 🧵for what I've found so far.

25 Dutch soldiers died because of the USA calling for article 5 for the first and only time in the history of Nato.
Trump just insulted their families and our country! 🤬😡
Do you know what pisses me off about Trump saying that NATO would never come and help the US if it was ever under attack? The ONLY time that NATO’s Article 5 has EVER BEEN INVOKED was immediately following 9/11, the very next day, on Sept 12th.⬇️
