NL Utrecht folks! Certain postal code areas have a water advisory to boil tap water for 3 mins before consumption (even for preparing food or brushing teeth) due to a bacteria found in the water supply:

See screenshot for affected postal code areas: forward to who needs to know!

And I just wanted to highlight this advice they gave for the queer Asian community, because it's very close to why I do what I do as a queer activist. 💜
Question by Gold House for their Renegades editorial series: You’ve been incredibly candid about your journey as a queer, genderfluid performer in gaming and entertainment, going so far as to embrace the title of “bisexual gargoyle” on shows like Game Changer. What advice would you give to the queer Asian community who are discovering themselves and finding their pride? Answer by Erika Ishii: A personal philosophy I have discovered that works for me is that if you are able, be yourself, joyfully and unapologetically. Your identity and pride grow from that. Find out who you are, never let a label be the whole summation of you. It’s not about being the perfect example of an identity, or “presenting” the right way, or in my case, sitting on chairs weird. It can be challenging, but when balancing on a chair or being open and honest about who you are, all you can do is try your best until you learn more and can do even better. I’ve found when you are open and happy with who you are, it attracts people who like you for being you. And it can encourage others around you to do the same.

Oh fuck, it me.
Meme with characters from Star Trek Voyager: On the left, Captain Janeway looking inquisitive/confused with the caption: "When you're an introvert, but your whole life, you keep taking on more and more leadership and outgoing roles, what is that?" On the right, Tuvok looking stoic as Vulcans do, with the caption: "Introvirtuous. I'm here to help. But I'd rather not be."

Great quote that I pretty much live by from my little Finch self-care app:
Dark blue screen with a moon and cloud icon on top, showing the quote by Andrew Iskander: "Because that's what kindness is. It's not doing something for someone else because they can't, but because you can." At the bottom is the Finch app logo with text "Finch: Self-Care Pet"
