A nearly 8 years old Time cover and unfortunately even more relevant today.

Europe and the EU may be portrayed as more diverse in opinions, but to say we are “divided”? Compared to one of the most divided and polarized countries on earth (that happened to give one individual a lot of power) Europe and the EU are a blessing. 🇪🇺❤️

Deeply saddened by the passing of Tali Eshkoli, one of the bright lights in the Eurovision community and an accomplished producer who knew how to get things done. I will miss her friendship and support. Condolences to her family, friends and colleagues 🤍

My deepest sympathy to the people of North-Macedonia, after the tragic loss of life during the Kocani night club fire and to the many who are wounded or fighting for their life. 🇲🇰🙏🏼

Gefeliciteerd AFC Ajax en alle fans met het 125-jarig bestaan van de club, ook namens #Amsterdam750 🎉 (📸 De Telegraaf)

Trots om The Magnum Ice Cream Company (nieuwe naam!) te verwelkomen als Officieel Partner van Amsterdam 750 en Op De Ring. En dan mag een mooi ijsje natuurlijk niet ontbreken (aarbei-cola-aardbei). 42kcal heb ik me laten vertellen 😉🙏🏼

Wat een verdrietig nieuws... 😔 rtl.nl/nieuws/binnenl…

Let’s do this!

Nee, nood breekt geen wet.

Trots op Onze Jordaan, de prachtige oer-Amsterdamse musical die net de Musical Award voor Beste Oorspronkelijke Nederlandse Musical wint! Gefeliciteerd Diederik Ebbinge en team #Amsterdam750 🎉

So the 3,451 friends on Facebook aren’t real friends? Asking for a friend!

Dankbaar om, in vrijheid, tijdens deze Nationale Dodenherdenking 2 minuten stil te kunnen en mogen zijn. Laten we die vrijheid koesteren en beschermen 🇳🇱🙏🏼

Happy Europe Day! 🇪🇺

Wishing all those working on stage and behind the scenes on the 2025 #Eurovision Song Contest the best of luck this week and those viewing live or on TV the best time! And of course... may the best song win!❤️

I didn't tear up at all #celinedion #eurovision

We zijn blij om te zien dat er enorm veel animo is voor het unieke evenement #OpDeRing. Er zijn nog kaarten, blijf dus in de wachtrij! Update: opdering.amsterdam/artikel/statem…

The first one I attended, as press. Fun fact: EBU Executive Supervisor Sarah Yuen asked me to briefly run the score board system during a dress rehearsal, because the operator needed a bathroom break.
