There was an article a few years ago about Zwarte Piet. Someone commented that Zwarte Piet was fine, not racist at all. A person replied that they were black and lived in Holland and that they felt like Zwarte Piet was a bit racist. The original commenter told them to go back to Africa.

So anyway, that’s kind of where we’re at.

Public transportation seemed to work well in Brussels, Paris, Prague, Copenhagen, and even Edinburgh. Just thinking of the last few cities I was in outside of the Netherlands (leaving out the USA, which is obviously a nightmare for transportation of all kinds). ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If you live in a country with 19th century banking where people still pay each other by IOU on little pieces of paper, then sure. In modern countries a lot of places only take electronic payments.

Oh yes that was it!

So, mod removed. I feel less annoyed. 😄

I did notice a post that was looking for help, then apparently labelled “solved”… then deleted for some reason. 😞

That only works if it kills people (or makes them infertile) before they are 40 or so (for women) or 60 or so (for men), right?

Why does Holland sound like he’s from Liverpool? 🤔

I keep thinking making a magic mirror would be such a project…

Okay I’ll bite.
