‘Fuck you, got mine’

The same guy yes.

He’s had that look long before Trump was involved in politics in an any (‘serious’) capacity.

I prefer to think of Donald Trump as ‘American Geert Wilders’.

Wilders been in politics for far longer than the Orange Man has been and he can string together a coherent sentence. His politics are terrible and I hope he fails though.

Sure it shifts the burden to the taxpayer and I would like my tax money to be spent on other things please.

Companies aren’t going to change their policies voluntarily, it’s up to governments to make better decisions with my money and make other options more viable.

Funneling subsidies and tax breaks from fossil fuel to sustainable energy sources. In the Netherlands alone, the around 40 billion euros are spent by the government each year directly or indirectly subsidizing fossil fuel.

Kerosine airplane fuel is untaxed for example, while consumer car fuel comes with a 20% (ish) tax.

The trailer somehow feels like Alien: Isolation

Good.

What’s that?

You don’t get it. I can get a hangover from looking at a beer the wrong way and I’m not even in my 40’s yet.

Some young dude caught me yawning at a Rammstein concert this summer. I told him I couldn’t help it because it was past 9.

I think so too.

Good. I always thought the game lacked content and was a little on the short side.

Get a bag of those as well if you think that helps! Make your life easier.

Buy multiple chargers and charging cables for my devices. One on my nightstand, one on my desk, one in the living room and one in my work bag.

If it’s relatively cheap, buy multiples and spread them around so you’ll never have to look for it.

Apparently a 6% increase in crime in 2022 it seems. I suppose violent crime would have increased as well.

As for knives and explosives, that’s bad enough for me an I’m quite content to not add more firearms to that mix as.

Haven’t heard about that but I think ships sailing under a Dutch flag would be treated as Dutch territory for law purposes. Harder to enforce when you’re on the high seas though. And I’m not sure percentage-wise there’s a disproportiona number of Dutch people that own seafaring ships. Most merchant ships would be owned by companies anyway and they’d probably frown upon that stuff.

Dutch merchant ships sailing through pirate infested waters might have armed guards (navy troops, mercenaries) I guess?

I think they may be telling you tall tales.

Dutch here. Gun laws are strict. Generally, only the police and military carry guns in public. To legally own a firearm without being in either the police or the military you need to be a member of a firing range/club type of deal iirc. And even then only senior members get to take their guns home with them.

There is gun related violence but it’s less of a problem because there’s few guns and they’re harder to come by. It does seem like gun violence might be increasing but I’m unsure if that is due to a few high profile cases and extra media attention or that it’s actually getting worse.

I like it this way. I personally have never felt the need to arm myself and I’m glad it’s mostly professionals that get to carry weapons. It’s not a perfect system and weapons do end up in the hands of the wrong people but it’s the exception more than the rule really.

This exactly. Bold of OP to assume that English is everyone’s first language.

Not OP but: you have to eat but most of the best foods make you fat or are bad for you in some other way.
