Zeer interessante lezingen van @aldohouterman.bsky.social en @acevaal.bsky.social bij @knvb.bsky.social over hun onderzoek naar de Franse filosoof Serres en diens blik op de #scheidsrechter resp. de “governmentality” van sporters en hoe daarmee om te gaan als arbiter. Leverde leuke discussies op!

A thrilling match, ending in a 4-2 win on penalties for the Northern Irish, after the match ended in 2-2 and extra time did not produce a winner either. The #referee is Joaquin dos Campos (Portugal), with Leo Helge (Denmark) and Sten Ahlner (Sweden) running the line.

When I was taking my photos, Sunday, I noticed another tree stump covered in them. But brambles prevented my going there. On the way I nearly stepped on a twig when I noticed colour on it. Teeny-tiny mushrooms:

Same here. It’s not wet enough yet. There’s good specimens to be found but not in great numbers yet. Except for sulphur tufts:
