Mick van Wely wrote that his Dutch grandfather worked as an optician for the resistance in Leiden and took photos for forged documents. According to him, his father grew up with a strong aversion to Germans. When, as a five-year-old, he received an apple from a German soldier, he thanked him with a curse word for Germans, Van Wely said. His Hungarian mother, he said, grew up under communism, which he described as just as bad as fascism. Van Wely wrote that he had been raised at home with love for and respect for freedom. This, he said, explained why he sometimes reacted angrily when he saw that the carefully built Western lead and achievements, which had long been taken for granted, were coming under heavy pressure and were slowly being rolled back. #vrijheid #geschiedenis #verzet (translated)

Mariba criticized Dilan Yeşilgöz after she claimed that Russia had been declared an enemy of the Netherlands. According to Mariba, Yeşilgöz stated that the Netherlands was not at war, but that a carefree peace was also not in sight. Mariba wrote that the Russian consulate had asked the Dutch government to confirm or distance itself from the statements. She believed it should be made clear whether this was about official policy, a political warning, or political rhetoric. According to Mariba, designating an enemy was not a strategy and threatening language could escalate tensions. She argued that the consequences of such statements ultimately affected civilians and urged the government to explain what the policy and risks were and how it intended to ensure security. She criticized the VVD and argued that politicians should think first before declaring an entire country an enemy. #Nederland #politiek #veiligheid (translated)

Symphony wrote that he was 63 on paper, but depending on the situation, sometimes felt 37, 25, or even 104. He also claimed that he could suddenly take on the age of 14 again out of anger. According to Symphony, someone carries all previous versions of themselves: from the amazed child and the love-struck boy to the older person who knew how precious time was. A song from the 80s could bring that person back to the summer when they were 17, with friends in a field and the feeling that the future was still endlessly far away. Symphony wrote that the boy had never completely disappeared and that getting older might mean carrying more and more lives with you. An old song could make that person feel 17 again, if only for three minutes — but now with the realization of how special that time was. #ouderworden #herinneringen #tijd (translated)
