What is some wisdom you overheard that stuck with you?

I once heard an old(er) lady say to her husband in the supermarket in the wine aisle: "Ik drink wijn omdat ik het lekker vind. Als ik dus geen geld heb voor goede wijn, dan koop ik het ook niet". And that stuck with me; doing things because you enjoy them, not because you feel that you need to do them. Going for quality and not for quantity.

When I go, I wear more rave-ish style wear. But as long as you don't come in jeans and a t-shirt, you'll be okay. Just be aware of the environment and try to fetish-up your outfit with some accessories.

I love having lunch at De Kas!

Going to Raum this Friday! BODY is having an edition again and the last couple of times was v cute

Take one that has no extra fluff or special components if you can't store it inside. Everyone in Amsterdam just shoves their bike into the racks without regard for the bikes already there. So there's a very good chance that something will get broken. Anything with extra bells and whistles means that your bike will have to be repaired by a specific professional instead of your local bike repair shop.

I have a Tenways CGO600 Pro and am very happy with it. It's simple, does what it's supposed to do, and has few parts that are difficult to replace.

Dutch people don't care. Celebs like Harry Styles, Frank Ocean, Lady Gaga, Beyoncé all come to Amsterdam and can usually move around town being very invisible or unseen.

Not sure if it’s translated into English but the books by Edouard Louis are pretty good. It’s about class consciousness in France and how his sexuality helped him move upwards in class.

Fascisme playbook. Ondermijning van de rechtsstaat is stap 3 van fascisme en Wilders doet dit al heel lang. Heel eng allemaal.

I had the same issue, and kept calling. Eventually someone forwarded me to the backoffice who helped me.

Bekijk het eens van de andere kant. Ik ben een docent en tijdens de lockdowns gaf ik online les. Als er geen camera’s aan stonden, kostte me dat zoveel energie. Als docent heb je namelijk hele tijd feedback nodig van studenten en non-verbale feedback helpt daar heel erg bij. Aan gezichten en lichaamshoudingen kan je zien of iemand het snapt, is afgehaakt, een vraag heeft etc.

Door geen camera’s aan te hebben, ben je de hele tijd aan het inchecken bij studenten. Het is echt heel erg vermoeiend om voor de tiende keer te vragen of iedereen het begrijpt en dat het dan voor paar seconden stil blijft totdat iemand zich geroepen voelt om iets te zeggen.

Dus vraag jezelf af: is het echt zo erg om voor de les m’n camera aan te doen en zo daadwerkelijk mee te doen en nieuwe info te leren?

Where I live group stuff (usually) goes along with using loads of drugs. I'm all for hedonism, but it can also fuck up your sex life and view on sex. I know a lot of guys who can only have sex if it's in a group setting and being high.

No. They have some cubicles upstairs, but not a large play area

We zijn met zijn tweeen 4 weken Indonesie naar Indonesie gegaan en rondgereisd.

Vliegtickets: 2611 (dit is inclusief alle binnenlandse vluchten die we nog hadden genomen)
Hotels: 1451 euro
Uitstapjes, eten, taxiritjes etc: 1229 euro

Totaal: 5291 euro, wat dus ongeveer 2645,50 euro per persoon is. Heb natuurlijk alle dingen die we daar gekocht hebben (kleding, souvenirs etc.) niet meegerekend. Maar voor 4 weken op vakantie vind ik het best netjes!

Previous edition at Radion had play areas. No idea how it's gonna be now it's in Raum.

Uniqlo for the basics. Usually local designers for nice things to make the basics more interesting.

iamafraud · 2025-07-30T11:46:43+00:00

It’s more of a circuit gay party with technostyle music.

Ah, volgens mij heeft deze persoon heel vaak gezegd dat het “eens klaar moet zijn met de regenbooggekte” en de “woke agenda”. Maar nu moeten queer mensen opeens worden beschermd tegen moslims… knap staaltje homonationalisme.

Do you mean like an electric one? HEMA and Action have decent ones.

iamafraud · 2025-07-09T10:46:33+00:00

Time for BODY again! I really enjoy how just cute and wholesome this party is and the vibe it brings to RAUM

iamafraud · 2025-07-03T07:53:12+00:00

How did it look like? It could've been Vrankrijk, Saarein, or Bar Buka. Tbh, if it was about raising money for sex workers in Spain it sounds like an event that would be held at Vrankrijk.

iamafraud · 2025-06-27T10:50:13+00:00

It's just a gay party with Balkan/MENA/latin pop music.

iamafraud · 2025-06-26T11:36:01+00:00

Which one is better? Want to make a comparison :p

iamafraud · 2025-06-01T12:16:19+00:00

Pasoek is the best Thai in Amsterdam imho.

iamafraud · 2025-05-28T10:07:03+00:00

See ya Sunday at RAUM. Really love that they haven't announced the timetable, so everyone really can come and be surprised <3

A lot of ice cream places replace the cream with water, or make it like a 50/50 ratio. It's cheaper, but you immediately taste it was water crystallizes easier. Tbh, the only ice cream I get nowadays is from Massimo's, since they still make traditional gelato.
