The nice thing about Van Hecke is that he doesn't see this as a crazy question at all; on the contrary, because he had already been thinking about this agenda issue himself. "Hopefully I can still catch a bit between the match discussion and the warm-up," said Van Hecke, clearly a true enthusiast. #JanPaulvanHecke #PremierLeague #Voetbal (translated)

Weird Duk wondered how there would be a reaction if he made similar statements after an election victory of a far-left party. As an example, he wrote that Europe commentator Stefan de Vries had sharply criticized the current form of democracy after the major electoral victory of the AfD in the German state of Saxony-Anhalt on EenVandaag. According to Duk, De Vries had called the AfD a Nazi party, warned about its growth, and argued for a different system, without being able to say what should replace democracy. #democratie #verkiezingen #Europa (translated)

He said he could not think of any European car brand that could achieve the same, mentioning Volkswagen, Mercedes, BMW, and a brand from Stellantis as examples. He believed that this was precisely the problem. #Tesla #technologie #autoindustrie (translated)

Janis Ian, geboren als Janis Eddy Fink (Farmingdale, 7 april 1951), is een Amerikaans singer-songwriter en auteur. Ian leerde al op 3-jarige leeftijd pianospelen van haar vader, een muziekleraar. Op 14-jarige leeftijd debuteerde zij met een zelfgeschreven liedje, Society's Child, dat haar in de Verenigde Staten van 1966 meteen nationaal bekend maakte (top 15-notering in de Billboard Hot 100). De tekst ging over een relatie tussen een blank meisje en een zwarte jongen. De discussie of zoiets wel kon, brandde los en Ian stond in het middelpunt van de belangstelling. Haar carrière kreeg verder vorm toen zij het album Between the Lines uitbracht. Het nummer At Seventeen, over de gevoelens van iemand van die leeftijd die zich eenzaam voelt, werd een van haar bekendste liedjes. https://hvdommelen.nl/i/IanJ.html

Mirjam152 challenged the reasoning that a lower VAT rate cost the government a lot of money. She compared it to the income a landlord misses out on by asking for a lower rent and sarcastically suggested that the VAT should then be raised to 30 percent and inheritance and gift taxes to 100 percent. According to her, people were already paying more than enough tax. The researchers defended a higher VAT rate for, among others, hairdressers, bicycle mechanics, and plasterers with the argument that a tight labor market could make services more expensive due to insufficient staff availability. Mirjam152 called that reasoning flawed and accused the researchers of having a political agenda and pandering to the government and the cabinet. #BTW #Belastingen #Overheid (translated)

We need to return to the winner's mentality that we had during World War II, I love it. Everyone needs to see what the consequences are when you do something like Major Hasan did in 2009. That's why we're broadcasting it live, Hegseth said. #Defensie #Machocultuur #PeteHegseth (translated)

Borut Rončević wrote that Mladina has given him a cover story for the second time, and that it was interesting to read his professional biography as written by someone who, in his opinion, does not like him. He pointed out that the article did not mention that he was a Zois scholarship holder and recipient of Marie Curie and Fulbright scholarships, a two-time holder of the Jean Monnet Chair, and a three-time Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence. He added that he mainly perceived from the article that in the past twenty years, faculties and research institutions have been established and a university center has been built in Novo mesto, where, in his words, there is now a public university. If the article is intended as an indictment, he stated that he gladly took note of it. #izobraževanje #novinarstvo #biografija (translated)

"Veel meer jongeren doen aan bingedrinken. Hiermee bedoelen we 4 tot 6 glazen alcohol binnen een tijdspanne van 2 uur", weerklinkt het unisono bij de dramaqueens in de media. Tijdens mijn studententijd heette zoiets 'op't gemakske iets drinken' of er was een erg trage garçon. #Bingedrinken #Alcoholconsumptie #Jongeren
