We’ve been looking out for Bobby on behalf of a local dog rescue, but due to our frequent air-travel we can’t adopt him. He needs a forever home. Bobby is super smart, very affectionate, cuddly, devoted, loves to fetch, doesn’t shed, and deserves a good life. We can help arrange travel to EU or US.

Benjamin needs a forever home. He’s small (about 7 kilos), super sweet, spins around in circles when he’s excited, loves to fetch his squeeky ball or sit in your lap for hours. Our local rescue org can help arrange his travel to the EU or US / Canada.

One of the most intriguing & misunderstood street design and place-making ideas in the world is the Dutch #Woonerf, or “living street.” When I studied woonerfs while working for the City of Groningen, I learned the key is street design that makes it impossible to drive faster than people can walk.

Whenever we leave the kitchen window open this cat will come to visit. Occasionally he waits at the front door for us to come home.

Bluesky has a culture of blocking rather than engaging with trolls. Robbing them of oxygen. You'll see block lists circulating.

This was always my way, but just in case you're wondering why it's so peaceful here.
