So the Dutch government just collapsed

Yeah. That happened. What happened is that the government accused people who got childcare benefits of fraud (using ethnic profiling to boot) and forced them to pay back all the money they had received (aka: an awful lot of money) to pay for daycare. Said “fraud” was actually false accusations or minor things like forgetting to sign a dotted line, things like that, that catapulted many families into debts, poverty. Oh, did I mention this happened like 12 years ago? Yeah, those parents have had to suffer a government witch hunt for more than a decade.

Around Christmas a (big) rapport on this was released and the government decided to resign today.

Let me repeat that: The entire Dutch government has resigned. Every single minister and secretary has quit. This is a big f*king deal.

Gosh, I’m so relieved. This is a huge blow to the VVD (biggest and factually most corrupt party currently in government, also: neoliberals) and a huge relief to anyone affected by this sh*tty excuse for governance.

Butch Hartman dives so deeply into into the “Boys being compared to girls as alleged comedy” hole that he effectively dug a tunnel to the other side of the world and it starts being “you barely have to squint to read this character as trans” instead.

“how long have you been on tumblr”

there was once, like, a whole weekend where users on this website legitimately thought that you could defy the laws of equivalency and make infinite chocolate by cutting your chocolate bar a certain way.

There was once a time where info spread about a rare disorder where your eyes were purple

There was once a person who claimed a bird probably died a horrible death in a chocolate fountain and didnt realize the bird was CG and they didnt… you know, kill a bird for a funny gag
