If we want to fix GenZ’s lack of drinking, socialising and sex, we need to fix the music.

Not a single anthem since about 2010. It’s no wonder they’re the sexless generation.

The billionaires need to put their money towards finding the next Axl or Kurt or whomever.

Discovered Albert Heijn sells Glühwein for €1.99 a bottle.

This could become a problem

Topless protesting and rioting burns calories.

But I’m going to chose to believe it’s due to drinking wine everyday and smashing foie gras into your face. Which I will now double down on

Ah, that time of the year when I consider disabling rain notifications.

You don’t need to send me a notification every 20 min Buienalarm!

I fear my children are becoming too city.

I come from a very long line of Boers (farmers). My father was the first not to a farmer (Menswear formal clothing designer) and I’m a software engineer.

But I still learnt the basics - how to ride a horse, muck stables, shoot a rifle, milk a cow, etc.

The way Elon insults foreign leaders, governments, etc is crazy, no? I’m surprised it hasn’t caused more issues.

Imagine Bernard Arnault or Jack Ma doing the same.

This guy should definitely run for US President someday. Has gravitas by the bucketload.
Why are Trump supporters not wanted ? You dont have to follow them. You can block them. You can filter words. Don’t you want @bsky.app to have all perspectives ? I certainly do.

As long as it’s civil. Why not welcome different viewpoints ?
I don't understand Trump supporters. Why come where you are not wanted. It's odd. Witness me syndrome in the worst way.

Kinda wild how Live (the band) was so dominant in the 90’s and are now basically forgotten.

Throwing Copper and Secret Samadhi were bigger than anything Foo Fighters put out (I say confidently without actually bothering to look it up)
