"Yeaaaaah... The situation is really tricky in the US, but come anyway for the sick money! The WH understands the problem (that it's causing) and wants YOU to succeed too! You're not brown, Irish, or a libtard loser are you?"

I may have taken liberties in that translation.

Tja, ‘the situation‘ is wel ‘tricky‘ in de VS. Maar kom vooral geld verdienen, zeggen Amerikanen op tour in Eindhoven

Building Bridges to the USA: Een Amerikaanse organisatie wil ‘bruggen bouwen’ voor Europese ondernemers, en strijkt neer in Eindhoven. En de importtarieven dan? „Het Witte Huis snapt de problemen, de president wil ook dat je succesvol bent.”

EU Commission slaps fine on X over “deceptive” practices - DutchNews.nl

The European Commission on Friday slapped a €120 million fine on Elon Musk’s social media platform X for breaching transparency obligations related to its “blue checkmark” and to advertising. The commission said the blue checkmark for “verified accounts” on the social media platform deceives users because anyone can buy it “without the company meaningfully verifying who is behind the account, making it difficult for users to judge the authenticity of accounts and content they engage with.” This “exposes users to...

The NL #wolf drama continues for the 3rd year, and it includes some banger comments:

> "The Netherlands is not a nice country for wolves. If I spoke Wolf I would say: Guys, turn around, don’t come here. There is no nature in this country worth speaking of, it’s all tupperware,” Graus said.

Caroline van der Plas bares fangs in heated debate over wolf - DutchNews.nl

A debate on Tuesday night on the future of the wolf in the Netherlands involved several heated exchanges between coalition partners BBB and PVV as well as opposition parties Partij voor de Dieren and D66. The debate marked the 11th time Caroline van der Plas (BBB), who earlier supported a comment from BBB MP Henk Vermeer about “a wolf-free zone the size of the Netherlands”, had requested a debate to make her case for a cull. Van der Plas, left...

The best six books I've reviewed in the last decade - DutchNews.nl

In my eleven years of writing book reviews for Dutch News, I’ve critiqued classics, poetry, short stories, books about food, books about history, thrillers and more books set in 16th century Amsterdam than anyone should consume. I very nearly died trying a gorgonzola hagelslag spaghetti recipe for a review. In total, I’ve written more than 50 reviews, the bulk of which have been published in the five years since I took over the task from Dutch News’ previous book reviewer....

Over 500 Dutch News readers took part in our Christmas Quiz and nobody scored 25 out of 25. In case you want to check how you did, here are the questions again, and the answers.
