I’m not sure if you’re pulling my leg, but sure, I get that. But what is a single/double/triple stripe month?

Now I am really curious…

What do the number of black stripes under the months designate?

“How about we do THAT first.”

Why not do both? Why make it an OR decission

Tax the rich and push for government reform.

Well, to be honest, apart of the aliens thing, everything you said is true.

So how is your housemate wrong?

And aliens? That’s an American thing. Only Americans are abducted and only America gets attacked by aliens in the movies. (And South-Africa)

Why say “unalive” here on lemmy?

You’re playing a dangerous game with those kind of words makker

Your Miles May Vary, an acronym saying that it’s his/her opinion/experience, and your experience may be different.

Not very stable indeed. Since ‘Kok’ (2002!), NL has had 1 cabinet come to full term (Rutte II I believe). In 21 years 8 goverments. 1 full term of 4 years, so 7 in 17 years. Elections every 2,5 years on average :/

But hey, at least NL is not Belgium :D

Don’t worry, the headline is too sensational. (Which is a pet peeve of mine anyway: headlines should be objective. I can make up my own mind please)

He didn’t win a majority. He won’t form a goverment. If he does, he will be powerless in the coalition. If he does get to make laws, they won’t pass the senate (called “1ste kamer” in NL). And if he does, the government will fall anyway (which is a Dutch tradition anyway).

So a lot of ‘outs’ :)

No worries!

No, you’re being downvoted because your post suggests that you basically reward them by not leaving. That their scummy change doesn’t affect you is lucky for you, but don’t ‘gloat’ in a topic where the TS is saying it does affect them.

You know, empathy? Or at least show some solidarity.

Same in Dutch: azijnzeiker (azijn = vinegar, zeiker = pisser). So that one does translate well (but not to English :))

Ah, give it time. Change is scary. And it is easy to be complacent. But ‘luckily’ Reddit will chase them to here.

Another Reddit refugee here. I guess after June 30th member numbers will explode?
