Maarten van den Berg wrote that the economic position of the EU would change significantly in the near future. According to him, Germany, France, and Italy accounted for 13.8% of the world economy based on purchasing power parity in 1992, compared to 6.9% now. He stated that the share of the G7 would decrease from 47% to 26% by 2031 according to the IMF, and that the BRICS countries had already surpassed the G7 around 2020. Van den Berg wrote that the growth of the BRICS countries mainly came from India. He noted that China remained around 20%, with Russia, Brazil, and South Africa not far behind; he pointed out that these countries did not participate in Paris2030 and the Green Deal. He argued that economic weight was not automatic and had to be earned through growth. #Economie #EU #WereldwijdeGroei (translated)

The renovation is necessary to preserve this building and this world-renowned collection in a responsible manner for visitors, staff, and future generations. In the spirit of the agreements between the Dutch state and the founder of the museum, ir. dr. V.W. van Gogh, we have reached an agreement with the ministry, for which I am grateful. Gordenker responds happily to the outcome. #VanGoghMuseum #Renovatie #Cultuurbeleid (translated)

Ann Van Haute wrote that she was fed up with the constant criticism of young people, who she claimed were labeled as lazy and undisciplined, spending too much time on their phones and social media. She pointed out that measures had been put in place in response, such as restrictions on phone use and social media, penalties for school absenteeism, and the compulsory service that Theo Francken had proposed the day before to instill "discipline and order" in young people. Van Haute argued that adults had raised young people, structured education, and provided them with their phones and online environments. If the results were disappointing, young people were blamed according to her. She believed that adults needed to examine their own roles and sharply stated that people who urinated in public flowerpots while drunk were perhaps not the best to lecture others on discipline. #jeugd #onderwijs #sociaalemedia (translated)

Piet Grasspriet reminisced about his youth, including Sinterklaas, Christmas, light evening, disco, beer for 1 guilder, happy hour, and smoking in cafes. He also mentioned candy that was known by a racist name at the time and said that people had more freedom back then, in his opinion. Regarding what the next generation would look back on, he mentioned what he described as anti-social fat bike users, soot-smeared Piet figures, knife fights, transgender day, thick sweater day, climate activists who glued themselves, veggie burgers, and boys with nail polish. He sarcastically characterized this as the ideal that was being pursued. #jeugd #herinneringen #cultuur (translated)

Geert Noels stated that acquired rights were benefits for older generations that were paid for by younger generations, while, according to him, those young people would not get them anymore because they were unaffordable. He added that he found it unfair that such rights were defended with social slogans, while he believed they were antisocial. #verworvenrechten #jeugd #socialerechtvaardigheid (translated)

Nirvana was een Amerikaanse grungeband die in 1987 werd opgericht in Aberdeen, Washington door zanger en gitarist Kurt Cobain en bassist Krist Novoselic. De band kende een reeks verschillende drummers van wie Dave Grohl, die in 1990 bij de band kwam, de langstzittende was. De band vestigde zichzelf binnen de muziek-scene van Seattle door in 1989 het debuutalbum Bleach uit te brengen op het indie-label Sub Pop. Nadat de band tekende bij het grote label DGC Records, kende het onverwacht succes met de single Smells Like Teen Spirit, van het tweede album Nevermind (1991). Hierop betrad Nirvana de mainstream en nam het het genre 'grunge' hierin mee. Frontman Kurt Cobain werd door de media bestempeld als "stem van een generatie", terwijl Nirvana gezien werd als vaandeldrager voor Generatie X. https://hvdommelen.nl/n/Nirvana.html

Jitse Groen wrote that the Netherlands, according to him, pursued economic growth, more housing, a leading position in AI, food security, fewer regulations, better mobility, and energy independence, but simultaneously enacted policies that countered these goals. He mentioned, among other things, taxes on the economy and rental housing, opposition to data centers and farmers, the growth of government, deteriorating infrastructure, and the lack of domestic gas production. Groen warned that box 3, on top of what he described as overreaching legislation, could also drive away entrepreneurs, investors, and crypto companies. The lack of vision, according to him, would be held against the current generation of politicians for a long time. #Economie #Politiek #Toekomst (translated)

Europe has strong #biotech companies, but too many of them ultimately find the capital to grow further in China or the US. At the same time, a huge amount of wealth will change hands over the coming years through inheritances and gifts. Why shouldn't a part of that be https://t.co/sN2ufE7HwF #biotech #investeringen #Europa #CN #US (translated)

Helene probably really believes this. Saving money on which taxes have already been paid - long seen as a virtue that an entire generation grew up with - is now suspicious. You must now share this money with others. Otherwise, you are 'honorless'. #geld #sparen #generatie (translated)

Hudson Williams apparaît dans un nouvel article de FMH, un magazine néerlandais. "Deze 10 jonge Hollywood-sterren maken momenteel een bizarre carrièreversnelling door" "De gevestigde orde in Hollywood mag wel gaan oppassen, want er staat een gloednieuwe generatie klaar om de boel over te nemen. Jonge acteurs en actrices die gisteren nog relatief anoniem door het leven gingen, pakken vandaag de absolute hoofdrollen in de dikste blockbusters en meest verslavende series. Van peperdure high-fashion campagnes tot de rode lopers van de Oscars en het Met Gala: deze talenten vliegen momenteel met driehonderd kilometer per uur naar de absolute top. Dit zijn de namen die je nú moet kennen." "Zijn Canadese Heated Rivalry-collega Hudson Williams beleeft een minstens zo absurde lancering. Eind 2025 kende bijna niemand hem, maar begin 2026 werd de half-Koreaanse acteur de jongste winnaar ooit van de Canadian Screen Award voor Beste Hoofdrol én mocht hij samen met bestie Connor Storrie de Olympische vlam dragen in Milaan. Sindsdien is de Williams-gekte compleet: een YouTube-video waarin hij zijn skincare-routine deelt ging zó viral dat het Koreaanse merk SKIN1004 hem vastlegde als hun allereerste wereldwijde ambassadeur ooit. Daarnaast is hij ambassadeur van zowel Balanciaga als Bvlgari en maakt hij in mei zijn Met Gala-debuut. Terwijl hij zich klaarmaakt voor seizoen 2 van zijn hitserie, tackelt hij binnenkort een dubbelrol in de thriller YAGA, verschijnt hij in de Netflix-knaller The Altruists en schitterde hij in een videoclip van zangeres Laufey." #Hollywood #JongeActeurs #RodeLoper
