Auto-translated to English by AINice mix of people, with a few exceptions who don't want to and can't adapt and don't have the qualities for it either.
Auto-translated to English by AIBismallah Frederik'sniffo here, have been to several villages, but this really takes the cake. astaghfirullah what is this street man. 's Hertogsbos is a neighbourhood where people spontaneously jump in front of trains, but that sucks because then my train gets delayed inshallah :( I hate my kind lowkey #euthanisealldeppressivepeople Harold van Duijn is my bitch. I fuck him so hard he becomes delusional and says den bosch is beautiful Alhamdoelillah Ffrederik sniffo
Auto-translated to English by AINothing else is worth it. As soon as I step outside the neighbourhood I feel disgusted. Nicest stadium and least filthy community centre in the Netherlands. Would also have a nice view of IJzeren Vrouw if that bloody road hadn't split the bloody park in two, what a bloody mess, bloody 60s... Furthermore, glad I'm from the north and not the south. Those lazy bastards in Graafsebuurt south wanted to keep slavery, what a bunch of empathy-less scum. #AllMokrosMustAlsoWork
Auto-translated to English by AIIt used to be fun, but not anymore. Lots of junkies in the neighbourhood, a bit unsafe and just time for something new, so I'm glad the flats are being demolished and new apartment complexes are coming.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt is a great neighbourhood to live in
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived there since 2017 and I enjoy living there, no problems
