Weetje: ‘Meisje met de Parel’ is tegenwoordig wellicht één van de duurste en een van de beroemdste schilderijen ter wereld, maar dat was in de 19e eeuw anders. Verzamelaar A.A. des Tombe kocht het schilderij in 1881 voor 2 gulden en 30 cent. Sinds 1903 is het werk in het bezit van het Mauritshuis.

Embodying the principles of directness and attractiveness, Amsterdam’s Nesciobrug—floating 11m above and 780m across the Amsterdam–Rijnkanaal—is the longest non-motorised bridge in the Netherlands, and a shining example of what’s possible when cities don’t allow the car to dictate their priorities.🧵

Study after study shows that it's remarkably cheap and easy to solve the problems of homelessness and poverty with low-barrier supportive housing and universal basic income, but our own fear that someone, somewhere will get something they didn't "earn" keeps us looking for other (punitive) options.
“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”
It costs a lot less to house people.
