In the Netherlands (which the Dutch call "Nederland") the language is called "Nederlands", so that makes sense. Perhaps English speakers couldn't differentiate between "Nederlands" and "Deutsch", which corrupted to "Dutch".

And why do we call the country "Germany" and the inhabitants "Germans" when they call their country "Deutschland" and themselves "die Deutsche"?

Disturbing reports that Google Play is threatening to kick out Mastodon apps. See:

App stores have a track record of acting capriciously & are also easy targets for gov't censors (including Trump). This is why alternatives like @fdroidorg are so important for user freedom.
If unfamiliar: F-Droid is a free & open source app you can use to install other Android apps, with focus on free & open source software. Get it here:

I do like the taste of onion bagels. When the other bagels in the bag acquire an onion flavour it's a poor experience at best, almost certainly leading to the purchase of a *real* onion bagel. #AOBFS #AcquiredOnionBagelFlavourSyndrome

@bobjonkman @blacksam Would that still be true if you actually liked onion bagels?

Asking because, although I don't eat bagels at all, it seems to me that you're probably unusually sensitive to the flavor of onion ... which would likely be the case if you disliked that flavor.

If there is one onion bagel in a bag of bagels, they're *all* onion bagels...

How come no matter what flavor bagel you buy from the bakery, it's always, to some extent, an onion bagel?
