we’ll meet again someday. people who’ve been as close as we’ve been always meet again.

😔 so, i’m having brainrot for the concept of 1990s ned/can distancing due to ned/pan rekindling: fifty years is a long and meaningful human marriage. but nations exist beyond human lifetimes, bearing centuries upon centuries of feelings and histories. and maybe, that’s where the gulf in experiences between a younger and older nation emerges: the sentiment that ‘i still hold gratitude and affection for you—but he and i were together for 300 years before that. i thought it ended—but i’m feeling that pull once more.’ the painting is a print of van gogh’s ‘almond blossoms’, which was influenced by hokusai’s ‘bullfinch and weeping cherry’ and hiroshige’s ‘plum park in kameido.’

hi here's another linguistic experience. dutch sounds like german but norwegian. something about the way it is spoken registers to my brain as norwegian, except i cannot understand it. it's absolutely maddening. one of the people at the workshop recently found a 24/7 music station at the radio, and every couple hours there's a short segment of talking. i thought i was losing my mind, or that my audio processing had gone even more to shit, or that the talking was some AI-generated gibberish - and then there was a word in the salad that tipped me off that this might be... a dutch channel.

I can’t watch this anymore. Croatia deserves better. Modric deserves better. I’m so disappointed.

Maverick: Hey Hollywood, how's civilian life been treating you? Can you believe it's already been 15 years since Top Gun?

Slider: Bet you're excited for Wolfman's enlistment to be up next month...

Hollywood: You have no idea. Hey, can you keep a secret? I've got it all planned out, the second Wolfman's enlistment is up, the very second Uncle Sam and his bullshit rules can't apply to him anymore, I'm gonna get down on one knee and ask him to marry me!

Maverick: Oh yeah, congratulations!

Slider: Wait, can you do that?

Maverick: Yeah, we can do that. Of course, we can do that!

Maverick: *To Hollywood* We can do that, right?

Hollywood: In Holland.

Maverick: *To Slider* In Holland!

🌈🎉 Celebrating a Historic Milestone: The Anniversary of Same-Sex Marriage Legalization in the Netherlands! 🎉🌈

Today marks a monumental occasion in the journey towards equality and love — the anniversary of the Netherlands legalizing same-sex marriage! 🇳🇱❤️🏳️‍🌈 Twenty-three years ago, on this very day, the Netherlands made history by becoming the first country in the world to recognize the right of same-sex couples to marry and adopt children. 🎊✨

This groundbreaking decision was not just a legal victory; it was a triumph of love over prejudice, of acceptance over discrimination. It sent a powerful message of inclusivity and respect for all individuals, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. 🌟

Since that historic day in 2001, countless LGBT couples in the Netherlands and beyond have exchanged vows, celebrated their love, and built families based on equality and mutual respect. The legalization of same-sex marriage has paved the way for progress, inspiring other nations to follow suit and affirm the fundamental rights of LGBT individuals. 🌈💕

As we commemorate this anniversary, let us reflect on the progress we’ve made and recommit ourselves to the ongoing fight for LGBT rights worldwide. Let us celebrate the love that knows no boundaries and the courage of those who have paved the way for a more inclusive and compassionate society. 🌍🌈

To all the trailblazers, activists, and allies who have championed equality and stood up for love in all its forms, we thank you. Your tireless efforts have transformed lives, shattered stereotypes, and brought us closer to a world where everyone can love and be loved without fear or prejudice. 🙌❤️

Happy anniversary, Netherlands! Today, we celebrate not just a law, but a testament to the power of love to change the world. Here’s to many more years of progress, acceptance, and love for all! 🥂🌈

i have got to emphasise on the fact that this is huge actually- gay rights in football is something that's just barely discussed. during the world cup in qatar, captains were banned from wearing a one love captain's band because it was too political (it was just a band with a rainbow heart on it), homophobia and racism is practically rooted in the songs sung during matches and there are no out players in the premier league, or more generally, there is only one (1) out player in the top leagues. having a character simply just,, be with another man and also a footballer in the premier league is a huge statement and will hopefully aid in trying to make football a better space.
