  1. This is the reason I don't wanna visit Dubai. No character, fake luxury built by modern slavery.
  2. Oh yes, definitely more left compared to the U.S..
  3. International Waldo Day!
  4. PVV had 37 seats from last election in 2023, that was the real surge. This feels like a decline in populist votes but still huge. But the Netherlands is a pretty conservative country politically, it's the Randstad (Amsterdam and surrounding cities) that's liberal.
  5. This sounds really lovely.
  6. Humor is often just telling the truth.
  7. No, my point is that his original stuff gets millions of views. If you remaster the audio you'll probably get more views than creating these weird new scripts. It's just not well thought out.
  8. Populism: The Netherlands is a tiny country that's part of EU. Although wonderful and rich, it has very little influence on a global scale by any stretch of the imagination. Yet populists don't see it that way. They would like to move away from the EU (total exit is entirely unrealistic) and are against migration, even though it helps us economically. PVV has all sorts of unrealistic, anti-constitutional 'ideas'. These voters are under the impression that the country is being overrun and turned into some Islamic state. This is based on nothing and has nothing to do with reality. Voters probably know this but want to 'vote against the system'. These 'votes against the system' help put clowns into government who don't give a shit about actually governing, delaying progress for absolutely no reason other than 'baseless voter sentiment'. At least we don't have kings or presidents in power.
  9. Probably nobody cares since it's such a small part of the world, but this week Wednesday we went to vote for the Dutch parliamentary elections. Results in my opinion are kinda meh, as I was hoping for a much stronger Left-wing victory after 2 years of complete populist mess. These parties are: 26 - PVV - Right-wing populist (anti-immigration party) 26 D66 - Left-wing liberal 22 VVD - Right-wing conservative 20 GL/PVDA - Left-wing (Green + Labor) 18 CDA - Christian conservative 9 FVD - Right-wing populist 4 BBB - Right-wing populist 3 DENK - Left 3 SGP - Right-wing Christian conservative 3 SP - Left-wing (Socialist Party) 3 PVDD - Left-wing (Animal Party) 3 CU - Christian conservative 2 50PLUS - Old people party? 1 VOLT - Left-wing progressive In case you're wondering how these elections work: The Netherlands has 150 seats in the Tweede Kamer (House of Representatives). Each political party gets seats in proportion to the votes they receive. Example: If a party gets 10% of all votes, they get about 15 seats (10% of 150). After the election, parties form coalitions (team up) until they have at least 76 seats together, which gives them a majority to govern. Every major party has already ruled out PVV after some were silly enough to try and govern along them. So D66 gets to form their coalition, hopefully over the left wing.
  10. These are wonderful This one is more redpill / masculine content if you're into that sort of thing: Very inspirational Youtube series: Hyper orange business advice, quite unhealthy excess but I still learned from this channel: Similar as Charlie but the original Sam Ovens channel: Pretty decent success coaching:

  12. I bet that first prototype sucks. You come home to broken dishes and your dog's dead.
