Prachtig slot van #eventothier waarin onder meer de 2 verdwenen panelen op de Amerikaanse begraafplaats #Margraten zijn teruggeplaatst vlak naast het Amerikaanse grondgebied.
En de naam van één van de 172 aldaar begraven Afro-Amerikaanse helden is van stro gemaakt om hem te eren 🙏.

Russia’s Central Bank found a 10 trillion ruble black hole in unpaid loans. That’s 24% of the entire Russian budget gone. Another reason why the #Kremlin is desperately pushing for a “peace” deal to save itself. We didn’t surrender in 2022, we won’t in 2025 — Russia is weaker and poorer than ever.

That would be an awful lot of books!
Another suggestion to put down the screen and pick up a book.
The number of pages you read per day, most days a week, is roughly equivalent to how many books you'll read in a year.

Almost as soon as a consumer advocacy group began testing an A.I.-enabled toy bear, trouble began. Instead of chatting about homework or bedtime, testers said it sometimes spoke of knives and sexual topics. They warned that toys like it could allow children to stray into inappropriate exchanges.
A.I. Toy Bear Speaks of Sex, Knives and Pills, Consumer Group Warns
The chatter left startled adults unsure whether they heard correctly. Testers warned that interactive toys like this one could allow children to stray into inappropriate exchanges.

Russia killed 33 people, including six children, by a missile strike on Ternopil on November 19.
94 more people were injured, 18 of them children. Six people remain missing.
Ukrainian rescuers worked for four days at two locations, managing to save 46 people, including seven children.

This isn’t a “peace plan.” It’s a blueprint for Ukraine’s capitulation. If implemented, it would turn this pro-Western, democratic nation, which has been courageously resisting Russian aggression since 2014, into a Kremlin colony. wapo.st/3XcRot6
Opinion | Ukraine needs Russia’s frozen $200 billion immediately, Europe
With Trump seeking Kyiv’s capitulation to Russia, now is the moment for decisive European action.

Back due to popular demand (mainly from @brainchain.ca) is another readthrough of an 80s microwave cookbook
This time it's "Cook food in microwave oven", written by Jill Spencer and published by Allerbok in 1987.

Er zijn oorlogen geweest waarin minder doden vielen dan tijdens dit "staakt-het-vuren"
Zeker twintig doden in Gaza door Israëlische luchtaanvallen
Sinds het staakt-het-vuren tussen Hamas en Israël op 10 oktober is ingegaan worden nog geregeld gevechten en bombardementen op Gaza gemeld.

academic conferencing in the age of Trump II is wild—nobody can come :(
I’ve been in conference panels with no audience, but unlocked a new achievement today where I had an audience of 15ieh but was the only presenter there.

Instant-blijmaker ontdekt: zelf krentenbollen maken. Zo feestelijk, een paar dagen zelfgemaakte krentenbollen in huis. Ik gebruikte dit recept en vooral het vormen van de bolletjes is cruciaal. Als dat misgaat zit je met compacte hompen en dat moet niet.
