I freaking ♥️ public transport!
Currently I have my drivers license for over 15 years now but never had to own a car. Ofc I totally understand the #Netherlands is relative small, dense and flat compared to some massive countries but we also invest a lot in public infrastructure!
Besides from being able to bike almost anywhere in the country, most places also have public transport cover
Good stuff! #NL
One more “Peoples of the North, hear my plea” for the Netherlands and friends today:
If you leave your child or dog in the car today while you run into the grocery store, they will seriously actually literally be dead by the time you get back.
When I lived in Virginia, they put signs up in grocery store parking lots with dog icons to remind you of this. It only takes a few minutes of a windows-closed car parked in direct heatwave sunlight to kill a toddler or a dog.
Since such heat rarely happens here, I expect a lot of people don’t realize just how serious this is.
🚨 #Russia likely used shadow ships to launch drones over #Europe that repeatedly disrupted civilian aviation, as it monitored #military sites & tested the air #defenses of #NATO nations, acc/to a report published Thursday by the #IISS think tank.
The report, which was shared before publication with AP, plotted 144 suspected drone sightings across Europe, including in NATO members #Germany, #France, #Belgium, the #Netherlands, the #UK, & #Denmark, between 2024 & 2026.

July 1, 1943: On this date, openly gay Dutch artist & resistance fighter Willem Arondeus was executed by the Nazis. He took part in the successful bombing of the Amsterdam public records office, destroying 800,000 identity cards & hindering Nazi pursuit of Dutch Jews. Due to an unknown betrayer, Arondéus was arrested on April 1, 1943. His last words were: "Tell people that homosexuals are not cowards.”

I wish Benjamin Netanyahu would visit the #Netherlands..
...so we can arrest him
In the #Netherlands, many cities have dedicated lanes for public transportation
Imagine me laughing when I cruise by a packed car lane just sitting back and enjoying the ride 
- it’s cheaper
- it’s faster
- it’s cooler
- I’m a cat meow
Im from the Netherlands btw and not Holland 
Holland consists of North- and South Holland which are provinces within the #Netherlands

This is cool!
In the #Netherlands we have this orange things on trash bins so people can put in empty cans that people can return for a small deposit
I just talked a while with an elderly man who was biking around and collecting these, he told me he earned a few hundred euros a month extra this way since he’s with pension and has plenty of time and wants to keep things clean
Love those creative solution!
For me these are quite ‘normal’ but for anyone wondering!
A (Dutch) windmill!
It’s now a little museum-ish where they show you how it’s done back in the days

Trump keeps on winning:
Countries take their gold out of the US.
The Dutch Central Bank said Wednesday it has transferred 86 metric tons (94.8 U.S. tons) of gold out of its reserves in the U.S. and Canada, due to “increasing geopolitical unrest.”
The move was completed between March and August 2026.
“With this relocation, we have improved the tradability of our gold reserves,” DNB Governor Olaf Sleijpen said in a statement.

As ministers from #Austria, #Denmark, #Germany, #Greece & #Netherlands discuss offshore #ReturnHubs, they need to commit to the guardrails necessary to prevent setting up human rights black holes: risk assessments, independent monitoring, enforceable rights clauses and public scrutiny.

⚠️ There is a nationwide public transportation strike tomorrow, 9th September, in the Netherlands. ⚠️ This applies to intercity trains, to all local methods in Amsterdam, and probably also the local methods in other major cities. They are protesting social security cuts.
If you have a flight departing Schiphol tomorrow, go get a hotel near the airport ⚠️TONIGHT.⚠️
The only train in the country will be the one between the stations of Amsterdam Centraal, Schiphol Airport and Hoofddorp.
Kindly do not reply to me as if I am in charge of Dutch public transportation, I am in fact just a rando on the internet who thought you might like to know this before it's too late.
