Accidentally bought a skyr snack with added protein.

The worst thing ever...

Just signed up for a three hour Batik workshop at the Vrije Academie in Amsterdam.

Looking forward to it. ♥️

The gender gap in pay is so large that Dutch women work the last 38 days of the year for free while their male colleagues reap full benefits for the same work. 🤷🏽‍♀️

The photo doesn't do it justice, too dark inside but I just bought a handmade blanket made of fabric from Suriname and it's their independence day today. 🇸🇷

MIT's famous linguistic professor Noam Chomsky was in regular and close contact with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, according to a review of emails published by the U.S. House Oversight Committee. In the documents, Chomsky described Epstein as a "highly valued friend."

Found a bit of energy to write about my escapades in Amsterdam last Saturday. Now I feel ready for bed with this nasty flu.
Can you still enjoy Amsterdam without the touristy bits?
Whenever I visit Amsterdam, I try to do it on a weekday unless I have something special going on. So last weekend was the once a month flea market at the IJ-hallen on the NDSM square, which is mark…

You guys, I found a shop in Indonesia that was shipping worldwide their Batik props and fabrics.

I just had the nicest interaction with Fikhar of BatikYin about batik and my grandfathers' home town after I placed an order.

Made me cry, such a sweet man. 😭

Sometimes I feel bad that I don't have a higher education but then I think back at an old coworker with a PhD and him falling for the MSG racist trope and I feel less bothered by it.

Yay, I caught the flu bug. Luckily my mom had all her vaccinations.

I apologised to her as people in my office will never learn to stay home when sick so the virus is spreading like wild fire there.

Her: as long as people don't cover their mouth during flu season I am always at risk.

Mask up 😷

Black Box Diaries is finally airing in the Netherlands.

I was a bit scared of looking at the comments because womens' stories are sometimes dismissed but it's been overwhelming in support for Shiori Itō.

Currently there is a high profile case of a Dutch singer SA'ing a young girl.

Husband has the heavy cold and I can't properly walk today as my legs are really hurting.

If we weren't allowed to work from home, we'd be both off sick.

Still employers push for full time office time. 😫

reminded of eric williams's observation about britain's relationship to its history with slavery. "British historians wrote almost as if Britain had introduced Negro slavery solely for the satisfaction of abolishing it."
holy shit: “Among the 2,000 UK adults surveyed, 85% were unaware that Britain forcibly transported more than 3 million Africans to the Caribbean, 89% did not know that Britain enslaved people in the Caribbean for more than 300 years” www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

Look I spent €21,95 on a Hello Kitty Christmas ornament yesterday but it's Hello Kitty.

The Vondels ornaments are well made.

We were in Amsterdam yesterday and ate at the Satay Club and they have my Indo-European seal of approval for being the best satay in town. I had the authentic set which is lamb skewers and lontong (cold sticky rice) and the sambal goreng beans hit me with nostalgia for my moms cooking.

I forgot to reactivate the stop suggested content button on Instagram and felt I was spiralling in the negative sphere again.

People make bank with bringing others down who are just living their lives. Fatphobia being the current one it seems. Or rather it never stopped and became worse it feels.

Also, just mentioning that Microsoft are still a BDS boycott primary target, so even if you don't care about a mega-budget AAA game cheaping out and using generic AI-generated art, you should care because the publisher *called the FBI* to investigate their own staff for anti-genocidal sentiments.
