Since nobody likes calling it X, why don't we call the platform "ex-twitter"? That way it's technically true, and everybody knows what you're talking about.
I'll just keep referring it to as Twitter if I ever need to talk about it.

What are your 'name brand only' items?
Running shoes. Antipronation shoes are fucking expensive, but having bad support will eventually hurt my feet, ankles or knees. I would get hurt very fast if I started running in cheap sneakers or something.

Omtzigt noemt minderheidskabinet over rechts reële optie
Dus: hij geeft de voorkeur aan neoliberalen, fascisten en religieus fundamentalisten. En dan hoeven ze niet eens een meerderheid te vormen? Wat een enge man.

Politieke aardverschuiving in peiling: Omtzigt virtueel op 31 zetels, CDA op 3
Ik geloof oprecht dat hij veel stemmen gaat krijgen, maar geen 20+%. Tegen de tijd dat de verkiezingen zijn, is de hype alweer voor bij denk ik of is er een andere nieuwe partij die dan weer de aandacht krijgt, zoals uitrarechtse splinterpartij nummer 37.

The sea between Denmark and Sweden, Kattegat, can be translated to "a fishes cloaca on a cat" from danish
In Dutch, it just means cat's asshole.

Wat is de lekkerste stamppot?
Zuurkoolstamp. Alleen jammer dat vega rookworst lang niet zo lekker is als de niet-vega, dus dat eet ik niet zo vaak meer.

Lemmy Up/Down votes should only be available when you are commenting.
I do not post comments that often, simply because I agree or disagree, but have no new insights to add to the discussion. I have seen too many 'me2' posts in my time.

Ja maar hooligans zijn niet tegen de fossiele industrie, dus dat is minder crimineel. Keihard aanpakken, dat tuig dat zich zorgen maakt om de toekomst van latere generaties! /s

I feel sorry for men who have to wear pants
A few years ago, back in the Netherlands, the male bus drivers of a certain public transportation company were forced to wear long pants by their 'managers'. Their female colleagues had a more comfortable uniform with a skirt. As a protest, a number of male bus drivers started borrowing the uniforms of their femaile colleagues. HR gave in. Good.

The Mask (1994) is one of the best comedy movies ever made
I am not sure about the 'one of the best' part, but it is a great comedy movie. Disclaimer: I grew up on Tex Avery cartoons.
Is the Mask such an unpopular movie? In my own bubble, it is considered hilarious, so I am honestly curious on contrary opinions...

Kbin: What is your all time favourite video game?
Planescape: Torment.
It had a great story that questioned good and evil (rare for a DnD style game). The graphics were great at the time. The soundtrack was (and still is) phenominal and the characters were actual characters.

Why do you never see elephants hiding in trees?
Lately, I was in a train. Across me, there is this man who keeps peeilng oranges, throwing black pepper on them and throwing them out of the window. After some time, my curiosity gets the best of me, so I ask him why he is throwing peppered oranges out of the train window. "Why sir?", he says, "To keep the elephants away of course". I replied that there are no elephants around, to which he says: "so it works!"

As a semi-agnostic, ex-Christian theist, I get shit on by both atheists and religious people. I think I'm getting caught in the cross-fire of their hatred for the other group. It's frustrating.
I know people who believe in one or more gods, but who do not consider themselves part of any religion. They did their own thinking and decided for themselves that there is a god (or gods). They also explicitly decided that the religions they know of do not fit their beliefs or ethics. I respect that.
