Zeg @vvdonline.bsky.social, hoe gaat het eigenlijk met de jeugdzorg in Nederland? Alles lekker daar?

Paulton's Park is building a new viking-themed area, and I love all the progress updates they're sharing. I'd love to take a little trip to the UK either next year or in '27, also to catch Gold Rush at Drayton Manor, which I missed by a month last year.

Just had to log back into twitter because a company wouldn't let me contact them unless I was logged in, logging in required an app, and their app was erroring out. I love technology.

I started reading the latest book in Richard Osman’s Thursday Murder Club series. So far, it’s everything ice cone to expect from his stories: cozy, witty, intriguing, and full of personality.

After remembering an episode of the Strong Songs podcast about The Cardigans' Lovefool, I wanted to explore their music a bit more, and came across this gem. Knowing their style, I wouldn't expect them to cover Black Sabbath, and yet, here it is.
