Celebrated!

Ehh… “He had one chance to do something great” almost makes it sound a bit positive. It wouldn’t have come close to making up for the complete shit stain he left on human history.

Good riddance indeed.

Had a blue leather case for my iPhone 12 and it deteriorated really quickly. At the current quality, I think it’s probably for the best that they discontinue the line…

The reason I bought it was a friend of mine who had a really nice one for the X. Not sure if they cut back on quality or if the square corners aged more poorly. But after a few months, the 12’s case looked much worse than it had any right to at MSRP.

Rocking a Peak Design case right now, by the way. Absolutely loving the quality, and the fabric gives off a premium feel as well.

It doesn’t help, but there are a few factors that are more limiting right now. Labour shortage is one, as are nitrogen emissions. A lot of developers also find the current building costs too high.

There are plenty of plots that can be built on, with all of the paperwork good to go.

This feels a bit surreal. After all of the scandals over the past few years, I hadn’t expected this to be the breaking point. I think it’ll be good for the Netherlands to get a soft reboot of politics. Most of the country was very much fed up with Rutte.

Not sure where we’ll go from here. I hope GroenLinks and PvdA together can gather lots of support. If not…

I, for one, welcome our new BBB overlords.

Let’s Gamble, Try Merging!

I think China could use some realpolitik here. They have very little to gain by invading Taiwan, and a lot to lose. If they could change their policy and work towards a clean split, I doubt Taiwan would keep insisting that they’re the true China. And they would earn a lot of goodwill throughout the world.

I’m torn on this. Restricting the when and where inherently restricts the extent of free speech. That’s not great.

Nonetheless, the guy burning the book is being an asshat for the sake of being an asshat. Generally speaking, I think we should let the asshats know that nobody likes them.

Every analysis I’ve read from reputable sources have come to the conclusion that this was bad for Putin. I think I’ll stick to Occam’s razor on this one.

Holy shit, that’s bad. Who would want to be liable for hosting deplorable stuff like that?

I’m a little bit out of the loop here… Why don’t we like awkwardtheturtle?
