The storm paths are usually stable. And over the centuries, locals have developed ways to cope and live with nature. In the last few decades, the storm paths have become more unpredictable, going through areas that have not developed typhoon culture.

Useful piece on the dubious activities of the Heritage Foundation in Europe.
I’m definitely more Team Fagan than Team Haar in terms of insights. Europe does not need the help of the U.S. to be far right and reactionary.

The Heritage Foundation goes from MAGA to MEGA — Make Europe Great Again
On the agenda: pro-natalism, freedom of expression, opposing trans rights and fighting Chinese influence.

Right-wing vigilante violence against the left (including assassinations of trade-unionists and environmental activists) has long been a feature of Latin American politics. I sometimes fear that this is in our future in Europe too.

How the Netherlands engineered its asylum crisis — and turned it into a business
How the Netherlands engineered its asylum crisis — and turned it into a business
The Dutch asylum system has been in crisis mode for years. An international investigation by Dutch investigative journalism collective Spit, together with Altreconomia in Italy, scrutinised the enormous amounts of public funds in Europe disappearing into asylum reception and detention. Who benefits from the cash flow generated by the asylum crisis?

Minister Paul verdedigde bij @nieuwsuur.nl haar 'solo' actie om de verhuurregeling te torpederen die een einde zou maken aan de uitbuiting van arbeidsmigranten en de vette winsten van uitzendbureau's. Ze vermeldde niet dat ze bij alle dossiers het ambtelijke advies negeerde en niemand inlichtte.
