#3157 A helpful tutorial
A digital drawing of one of those drawing tutorials that says 'don't do this, do this.' The drawing is of an almost naked middle-aged man doing a flying kick. The 'Don't do this' one has a bunch of areas circled and a cross under it. The 'Do this' one is exactly the same but without the circles and a tick instead of a cross. The text reads 'Needlessly adding red circles will ruin your art' and a smaller bit of text at the bottom reads 'Bonus tip! Add a tick under all your art so people think you did it right.'

Big and Little Spoons

xkcd.com/3166/
4-panel comic. (1) PERSON 1: Some people like to be the big spoon. (2) PERSON 1: Some people like to be the little spoon. (3) [two sets of spoons that don’t lay flat against each other, one arranged with the little one on top of the big one, the other with the big spoon on top of the little spoon] PERSON 1: And some brave truth-tellers point out that the metaphor makes no sense because different-sized spoons don’t nest right *either* way. You nest *same*-sized spoons. (4) PERSON: ...And apparently *we* sleep on the couch. PERSON 2 off-screen: Why are you *still* going on about the spoon thing? PERSON 1: Because I’m *right!*

Idee voor de verkenner: misschien kan er een samenwerkingsverband gesmeed worden tussen ChristenUnie, Partij voor de Dieren, SP en Denk om een centrum-links kabinet mogelijk te maken samen met D66, GL-PvdA en CDA. Een soort 'coalition of the willing' met een meerderheid van 76 zetels.

A pen and ink drawing. Panel One: A woman sits in a chair reading happily in a book-filled room. A voice offstage says "You can't survive on books alone" The woman replies "Maybe I can!" Panel Two: "How?" asks the voice "I don't know yet, but I'm sure the answer will be in one of my books." Says the woman Panel Three: Caption: However The book is filled with yet more books. A skull sits on the chair. It says "I regret nothing!"

Polarisatie schijnt het grote probleem te zijn. We moeten minder polariseren. Je zal het in de komende weken nog vaak horen in de campagnes. Meestal door mensen met een angstaanjagende lading boter op hun hoofd.

The US once again hits a new low in the World Happiness Report. The most powerful country is only the 24th happiest country. Happiness in Australia declined massively in the last few years. Source: buff.ly/rRBCNE9

My cartoon for this week’s @newscientist.com
Night time. Three figures walk up a set of stairs. They are in fact Penrose stairs, an impossible object which one can walk up endlessly. Low on the side of the stairs is a window. Another figure leans out and shouts up at the walkers: “Guys! I'm sure it's not easy being trapped in an endless paradox representing the limited nature of human perception, but some of us are trying to sleep down here!”

Waarom, waarom moet ik tegenwoordig in elke actualiteitenrubriek horen dat de 'kiezer' op Wilders stemt omdat ze ontevreden zijn? Waarom wordt mijn ontevredenheid niet vertollkt? Ik zie dat Wilders, Yesilgöz van der Plas allemaal liegen dat ze barsten. En ik vind dit niet als enige.

Big picspam of my summervacation in my LJ and DW (link below). I spent three nights in a Water Tower Hotel (!) and visited the Biesbosch, a fresh water wetland in the South West of the Netherlands.

Ten overvloede: links dient helemaal niet naar rechts op te schuiven, maar ruggengraat te kweken. Dat zal Elshout wel hooghartig vinden, maar ik draag mijn hooghartigheid met trots, nu ik weet dat daar slechts interesse in de waarheid mee wordt bedoeld. www.volkskrant.nl/columns-van-...
En ik maar denken dat journalisten op zoeken moeten naar de waarheid

Opinie: ‘Stel de IJtunnel open voor fietsers om pontinfarct tijdens Sail te voorkomen’
Paroollezer Ed Eringa vreest enorme drukte op de Amsterdamse veerponten tijdens Sail in augustus, maar stelt ook meteen een oplossing voor in dit opiniestuk.

De asielwet is een frontale aanval op de mensenrechten. Op onze beschaving. Op medemenselijkheid.

Deze avond is het gevolg van het jarenlang ophitsen tegen mensen die vluchten voor oorlog en geweld.

De Tweede Kamer zit vol met ophitsers. En vol met mensen die te laf zijn daartegen op te staan.
