Translator, interpreter, girlbossing close to the sun ❤️‍🔥
Yess, the mist has cleared in Harkema! Now a short break as the next speaker is Dutch and we don’t need interpreting from #frysk

Arrived at my #interpreting job at Harkemase Boys - football pitch largely invisible due to the mist…

Back from #2025TEF - tired but full of information and new insights

I hope the student who couldn't pay for his chocolate cookie, so MommyMe paid it for him, enjoys it. Today is a crap train day, so everyone deserves a cookie. Karma points +1 :-)

Arrived. It is too hot here lol, so my pink sweater is giving me a red face lol - I was just in time for the coffee and sweets

And back on the train. Hoping the journey to Brussels will be smoother than yesterday….

Upside: I got home. Downside: I got home almost 2 hours later than planned due to a signal failure en route. But: home. And tomorrow morning: on the train again! 💤

Democracy in action. Votes are being counted. Caught them at a quiet moment ..

You can't make it up: "Verschil tussen PVV en D66 nu 1984 stemmen". An Orwellian or utopian future? WE decide...

Vandaag #stemmen? Yes we can! Kies een mooie combi van partij en persoon en kleur het vakje rood 🔴 2/27

Rechtse partijen hadden de kans om niet óver maar mét moslims te praten, tijdens het verkiezingsdebat De Stem van Moslims. Maar ze bleven weg, woensdag in Den Haag. Juist door hun afwezigheid kreeg het publiek een debat met diepgang en nuance. ‘Het was kalm, inhoudelijk en kritisch.’
Debat zonder radicaal-rechts verademing voor moslims: ‘Hier had ik behoefte aan’

VAT mission accomplished. Submitted and paid. Back to earning money to pay more VAT next quarter...

Q3 VAT submission time! To motivate myself, I ordered a new mobile phone. And to treat myself, I took the bus instead of cycling through the storm :-) #selfcare

Today, I have decided, my commute (train, bus, train) will be bookish. Yes, this is Katabasis.

26 years, two kids, countless pets and chickens and two moves since our wedding day. My cute souvenir from my year in Belfast turned out to be a keeper. 🥰

Ik las het ook en ging meteen googlen op Eco en stond een halfuur later met dit in de hand in de (onafhankelijke kleine) boekwinkel. @volkskrant.nl @jarlvanderploeg.bsky.social

New law firm unlocked. I had interpreted for them in court, but never visited their office. 💪

While working on some #Frisian translations, I come across 'in wan bruien'. I love those sayings! And even more because if you'd ask the average (wo)man on the street what it means, they wouldn't have the slightest idea... What's your best guess (without googling? I broke Le Chat, who got it wrong)

We zijn met meer en moeten pal staan voor de normen en waarden die onze democratie dragen.

Awarding the Nobel Peace Prize to Machado is not only courageous, but hopefully the words from the Committee will be taken to heart.

De doorrekening van de verkiezingsprogramma’s laat zien: naast onze democratie staat ook onze verzorgingsstaat op het spel. De voorstellen van rechts zijn een sociaal slagveld.

Wij versterken juist de verzorgingsstaat. GroenLinks-PvdA is het enige sociale alternatief.

Katabasis has been on my nightstand for 2 weeks. It does ‘t read itself I guess
