This dude has some serious cojones:
“My only intention was to express myself,” he told me in his first media interview. “The party installs surveillance cameras to watch us. I thought I could use the same method to watch them.”

Daar heb je absoluut een punt.
Ik snap wat je bedoelt. Maar mensen die vrijwillig voor sekswerk kiezen, zitten in een totaal andere situatie dan heroïnejunkies die zich ertoe genoodzaakt voelen.
Het was expliciet die laatste categorie waar Oudkerk zich van bediende, dat kun je IMO wel als misbruik van andermans ellende zien.
I donated anonymously to your gofundme on August 7. I’ll see if I can do so again when my paycheck comes in next week.

Drop someone FURIOUS 🤬🖤👿
FFS, can we please not make the 3/5 clause great again?
Amazing how the biggest and most dominating moral question of our time should also be the easiest to answer:
Should a country be allowed to commit genocide?
If your answer is anything other than an unequivocal “NO”, you are part of the problem.
And even though my home city isn’t huge, it’s in close proximity (an hour’s bike ride or ten minutes by train) to two bigger cities. That allows easy access to a wide variety of cultural events, book shops and record stores.
Not needing a car. I like to walk, and whatever isn’t within walking distance I can get to by bike or train.

![Sean Parker: You don't even know what the thing is yet. How big it can get, how far it can go. This is no time to take your chips down. A million dollars isn't cool, you know what's cool?

The Social Network was basically a horror film based on real events.
Voor wie blijft volhouden dat tegenstanders van zionisme er simpelweg een verkeerde definitie van op nahouden; dit is hoe het anno 2025 door de Israëlische regering zelf gedefinieerd wordt.
Voor de boeren nul komma nul gedaan maar dat is natuurlijk de schuld van bruine mensen.
Kudos to this guy. This is effective resistance. Brilliant in its simplicity. Don’t store the data and it can’t be demanded by the fascists either.
Basically the tech equivalent of ‘don’t tell me and they won’t be able to get it out of me’.
Ik heb afgelopen weekend de laatste aflevering van de de serie gezien. Bij het kijken van The Handmaid's Tale hebben we elkaar regelmatig aangekeken zo van: ja, dit gebeurt tegenwoordig ook gewoon echt.
Buried in the regime's political takeover letter of the Smithsonian is the worst bit. Unlike exhibits, which are non-destructive towards primary materials, temporary in nature, and reversible, the foundational collections are irreplacable. They want to be able to throw stuff out.
