De rectificatie in de NRC mbt de affaire-Wijers is qua opmaak wel heel bescheiden. In elk geval niet te vergelijken met de vormgeving waarin de beoogd informateur op de voorpagina werd beticht van 'leugenaar'.

Maar moet dan een minister van Binnenlandse Zaken die weigert de ondermijnende Wilders te veroordelen niet ook opstappen?
En de minister van Landbouw die rechterlijke bevelen negeert?
De minister van Asiel die de Raad van State negeert?
De minister van Onderwijs die wetenschappers wil vervolgen?

According to multiple Russian sources, on Nov. 27, 2025, the launch of the Soyuz MS-28 crew vehicle caused the mobile service platform at Site 31 to fall into the flame duct below the pad. It rendered the only facility for Russian orbital crew launches unusable.

Putin launched Europe’s biggest war since WWII — killing civilians, kidnapping children, and eliminating political opponents. Yet Mr. Witkoff says he’s “not a bad guy.” Diplomacy requires engaging with dictators, but that doesn't mean we have to check our values at the door.

Duffy can suck my fuzzy bunny-ear slipper, I’m boarding in underoos out of pure spite now.
Sean Duffy: "Dressing with respect -- whether it's a pair of jeans and a decent shirt, I would encourage people to maybe dress a little better which encourages us to maybe behave a little better. Let's try not to wear slippers and pajamas as we come to the airport."

A friend who teaches theology shared with me a post about CS Lewis's Mere Christianity, which discusses foundational Christian logic across denominations. It reminded me of Dale's tweet below, and I wanted to share some thoughts here regarding modesty and respectability, which are often hot topics.

As someone studying unexpected events of all kinds, this was a funny (and unexpected) paper to randomly stumble upon: the presence of a man in a batman costume on a train makes passengers significantly more likely to stand up for a pregnant woman: www.nature.com/articles/s44... Good to know I guess.
