To be honest I never followed h3h3 ever since I grew out of the ripe age of 13 so to now see him conflicting with some youtuber I watch for supporting a genocide has me shocked at the state of him lol. Man is down bad bad.
With how much of my free time I devote to going to the gym in order to maintain physical health it dawned on me how unhealthy regular life is if this effort is required.
Sickening to see that mass graves can be made, children can be beheaded and burned to death and thousands of people can lose their lives and people in The Netherlands don't give two shits. There is no red line for the government and there is none for the population either. Complicit in genocide once again. And just like WW2 in a few years everyone will be 'resistance'.
I hope to see the day at which I can live in a peaceful Basque coastal town, drinking my espresso, listening to Cuban music at the beach. One day capitalism will be over, comrades.
Going to join a match against sexual violence today following the rape case in which a rapist saw no punishment because he was 'talanted and likeable'. You just know your country is doing something fucked up if r/news has a better reaction to it than your own country's subreddit.
There is also this youtuber who is now exposing him as details about his name (after conviction!!!!!!) are nowhere to be found. This youtuber also exposed the details of the murderers of student Sanda Dia a while back (who didn't get punished either, because rich and white) and he got punished for that. He faces jailtime now for exposing the rapist, effectively getting a heavier punishment.
So the news of the moment in the country right now is about a gynecology student who has been found guilty of the rape of another student during a night out after she got incredibly drunk and couldn't in any way consent.
He has been found guilty, he admitted he was guilty even. What is the problem, you think? Well, he faces no jail time. No criminal record. No exemption from his job (AS A FUCKING GYNECOLOGIST!). Nothing. There are no consequences. Why? Because they judge found him to be an 'extremely talented and caring and nice person who doesn't deserve his life to be ruined'. Read: he is white and from a rich family.
What a way to start the month in which campaigns against sexual violence against women are highlighted.
Material possessions and money give me anxiety. There was a time in my life in which I didn't really have much and I'm not saying I was necessarily happy but I was less anxious for sure. Now I have a car and disposable income and whatnot and suddenly I feel more trapped. Like, there is much more pressure to maintain this certain image that you have build, more pressure to keep performing in this society. And at the same time it feels whiny to complain about this because it could be so much worse. Hell, a couple year back I was in a much worse place. But at least I felt like I had the freedom to do things, paradoxically.
Basically, I feel like I have been pushed into some sort of role in society in which I have to work to maintain, in my eyes, useless things while the things I actually do value I have no time for. I spend a big amount of time each week at a place I don't want to be in order to pay for things I don't want or things I find ridiculously expensive all the while my energy is drained to the point I cannot do something else.
Wolves have returned to The Netherlands (and Belgium) and it is a shitshow lol. People are panicking, farmers are angry. But dogs, for example, make far more victims in humans and cattle than wolves do. There hasn't even been a wolven attack on a human yet but some parties want to kill them. There is absolutely no wilderness in this country at all because farmers took every single inch possible.
At least Belgium has some rooms with Wallonia existing.
Yesterday I watched a show in which a couple from Amsterdam with steady jobs wanted to buy a house with a budget of 350k. They eventually had to move to fucking Lelystad because they were unable to find anything near Amsterdam.
My native flowers are growing steadily on my balcony. I have seen some bumblebees and random critters already. I was also gifted a climbing rose this weekend and in a burst of insanity I an deciding to give it a try. On a city balcony. We'll see.
Apart from that things seems a bit quiet political wise. There is a general strike next monday though and I'm not allowed to work that day lol.
Some positive news: there seems to be some pacifist movement emerging in The Netherlands with regards to an arms race against Russia. There is no real ideological line it seems but at least there is some resistance to the madness.
Lol that's weird. It's one thing to notice such a thing and he's right when he might think it can be something medical but to insinuate it is is just weird. But then again doctors can be quite strange.
