Visitors are coming, so you clean your messy house because your standard of cleanliness is based on the houses you visit, houses that look spotless since they cleaned up before you arrived after seeing your house was clean when they visited.

Together, we can stop this.

Don’t clean up.

Des te opmerkelijker is het dat uitgeverijen van kranten als
@nrc nog altijd gebruikmaken van Microsoftsystemen om hun artikelen in op te hangen. Op de dag dat de VS werkelijk beslist om Europa van hun clouds te jagen, kunnen kranten daar niet eens over berichten. Lekker dan. 2/2

Belastingdienst loopt jaarlijks €1,5 miljard mis.

Want: "te weinig geld om deze turboliquidaties te onderzoeken". Je zou zeggen dat het zich terugverdient.

Wel is er geld voor onaangekondigde huisbezoeken bij mantelzorgers en mensen met een bijstandsuitkering. Zij mogen geen cent teveel hebben.1/2

Es ist eine befremdliche Mediensitte, Treffen des Europäischen Rates als Nullsummenspiele mit "Siegern" und "Verlierern" zu behandeln.

Man kann an Merz' Europapolitik einiges kritisieren. Aber nicht auf seinem Plan zu beharren, sondern das Ziel auf anderem Weg zu erreichen, spricht eher für ihn.

Germany is claiming victory for its automakers after the European Commission reversed its 2035 combustion engine ban, but the change gives Chinese automakers time to get even further ahead — in Europe and emerging markets.
Why China is the real winner of the EU’s combustion engine ban reversal
Europe’s automakers have to compete globally but are at risk of getting shut out as emerging markets turn to electric vehicles.

💥The West urged resistance to Moscow, then stood aside and did nothing when Russian tanks rolled in. This narrative of Western betrayal dates back to Hungary’s 1956 anti-Soviet revolution. Back then the USSR was powerful — not a failing state like today’s Russia.

Will history still repeat itself?

NSF is about to dismantle NCAR at Russell Vought's direction to protect the fossil fuel industry. It's hard to communicate just how much NCAR does, so let's take a look: I've never worked at NCAR, and I've worked with NCAR researchers once ever. What scientific discoveries has NCAR made possible? 👇

This entire last year of Trump's "peace" talks have been a waste of time. The Russians have finally offered the Trump family enough money and Trump will continue pressuring Ukraine to surrender so Trump can get paid.

In late 2020 a Chinese man called Guan Heng travelled to Xinjiang with our BuzzFeed map of detention facilities to provide ground truth for our work - he provided the first corroborating evidence for many sites.

He escaped to the US - then ICE detained him.

Heng Guan is awaiting an immigration hearing on Monday that could lead to his removal from the U.S. and ultimately land him back in China, according to his lawyer and a New York-based activist group.
