Incurably curious, always searching. Don't belong to any [collective noun]. Windswept and interesting, to a point.

Dutch by passport, European in spirit.

Privacy professional by day, nerd by night. And by day, come to think of it.

Interested in things like #history, #philosophy, #reading, #languages, #watches and #watchmodding, #maps and #mapping, #psychogeography, #craftbeer and #cooking. Among others.

Toots mainly in English, but I also speak Dutch, German and selected bits of Polish.

When I was still active on Twitter, Elon Musk fan boys would say “Stop criticizing Elon’s decisions, do you think you know how to run a business better than the richest man in the world?”

It turns out the answer to that question is YES. We all do.

Im Fentanylpflasterexpress nach SW. Es gibt einiges zu entdecken unterwegs.

There are worse ways of starting the new year than with Joolz' Annual Hootenanny.

Happy new year, Mastodonians! May it be beautiful, healthy, peaceful and from time to time slightly weird

Home and to bed.
Sorry if I shocked you, but if you've ever experienced new year's eve in the Netherlands, you'll understand.

I'm absurdly excited to learn that 2024 = 2³+3³+4³+5³+6³+7³+8³+9³.

...and it's because:

2025 = 45², and

45=1+2+⋯+9, and

(1+⋯+𝑛)²=1³+⋯+𝑛³ !

This is the day on which the Netherlands truly sucks.

A word to those amongst my countrymen who choose to celebrate the new year by playing with explosives and in the process tormenting animals and fellow humans, especially those with respiratory diseases, because they think it's fun:
may you wildly overestimate the length of your fuses and blow off enough bits of you to prevent you from doing it ever again. May it hurt.

Echt, stop de verkoop van vuurwerk, verbied het afsteken, maak campagnes om alle nadelen te benadrukken. Ban vuurwerk uit Nederland.
