Dutch #D66 wants to build 10 new cities? What should we call them? I asked our audience & my favorite pitches are: Bitterbaldrecht, Klompstad & Lekkerland.

On Remembrance Day, I’m reading about the head of the US National Cemetery Administration. I had no idea the US was the first country ever to gather its war dead for reburial at home.

This is who they’re firing.

Remembrance Day in Netherlands & this book is essential reading. ‘Diary Keepers’ by Nina Siegal. (Anne Frank wasn’t the only one who journaled WW2.) This book follows 6 people in their own words: Dutch collaborators, Dutch resistance members, and Dutch Jews.

My son asked me “is Trump going to be full-on fascist?” Well, I know the enemy of fascism is The Truth. So I told him “no, I’m sure it won’t be that bad.” (I lied.)

Lara Ricote taping her second solo show last night, with her boyfriend behind camera 3. Watching his reactions was great bonus material. (Despite my photo, this is Lara & NOT Femke Halsema.) Great show, and I also enjoyed the dancing beforehand. !

2025 Good News: Saturday at #theaterbranoul in #denhaag, it’s PART-TIME HYPOCRITE. Trying to make the world a better place, one hilariously awkward initiative at a time.
