Hot mot politiker vanligare från högerextrema grupper Hot och trakasserier mot förtroendevalda politiker på sociala medier har blivit dubbelt så vanligt sedan 2012 enligt Brottsförebyggande rådets statistik.

Expert om hat och hot mot politiker: ”Frågan är om någon orkar med i längden” Nästan var tredje politiker upplevde hot och trakasserier under valåret 2022. Centerpartister var värst drabbade vad gäller upprepad utsatthet.

Vår demokrati är verkligen prövad just nu. Strunta i USA. När folkvalda kvinnor hotas och hatas så mycket att de känner sig tvingade att avgå under tårar då har vi ett systemhotande problem - eftersom det händer om och om igen.

1. Nu gäller det att identifiera hotet bättre

Ja, men just det här kändes mest bara klumpigt.

Inget enskilt vapensystem kan rädda Ukraina men Tomahawk är en väldigt kapabel robot med ~6x så lång räckvidd som nuvarande västliga robotar Ukraina har.

This is so clever. Well done @bsky.app !

We are in all the reflections of Twitter

Oj, oj.

Make no mistake.

The recent incursions in our skies are part of a pattern of growing threats.

It’s time to call it by its name.
This is hybrid warfare.

Europe must get the capacity to respond and protect our skies.

Work has begun.

I know that the world is in turmoil and the threat to Europe is very real and we must plan accordingly.

It's just that - I did my military service preparing for an invasion by the Soviet Union. Things were much worse.

But let the sky be forever blue

Summer has died
It died with hesitation

But now I feel the chill

To think that culture is some kind of exception when one nation is trying to wipe out the very existence of another is beyond naive; it is madness.

Loosely tied to computer science has always been the goal of solving real-world problems. AI hasn’t changed that. The challenge doesn’t lie in progress itself; it lies in challenging human potential—and what we’re willing to pay for it.

Oscar Jonsson: Veckans Natomöte är historiskt – men något kritiskt saknades Bakom glädjen kring det historiska beslutet att Natos medlemsländer ska lägga 5 procent av bnp på försvaret finns anledning till oro.

Medan det jublas för 5%/BNP finns det en oroande sida av Nato-toppmötet; Inget fanns i kommunikén om kriget i Ukraina

I augusti kommer USA:s nya force posture. Jag gissar att Trump använder 5%-målet för att dra saker tillbaka.

Nice Swedish summer so far! Around 20C give or take a few degrees and tomorrow brings some pleasant rain. All good for now. I have parked my gaming PC for the summer, in order not to heat up the apartment already though. It's hotter where you are I take it?

I survived yet another midsummer! It's the Swedish annual Darwin test. Those who survive the dangers of the modern world (excessive occasional alcohol consumption) go on to face another year in the wild.

Well, I'm not sure that Instagram is for you then :) I intend to stick around anyway. Both Blue Sky and Threads have their moments, but I'm pondering how to get some engagement back again. Maybe stick to Swedish on Instagram and English on the rest to widen my reach.

I have to say I agree! Every now and then somebody breaks the pattern, but overall it feels a bit numb. Instagram is the only exception for me. That place sparks joy, but it's something else. It's not a place of the mind, but of the eyes.

He would have shaken his head. His thoughts otherwise hidden and impossible (for me) to guess.

Irony is sometimes lost in social media ;) Yes, gaming is a particularly bad thing do if relaxation is the goal. All of these stone age survival instincts come into play (!).

Probably. I guess I can find it relaxing sometimes, but I mostly use streaming services and it's not exactly the same whereas TV just keeps going. Can't beat music or an audio book for relaxation though. The other day I played a video game for relaxation and strangely it didn't do the trick.

I have my grandpa to thank for that. He taught me that alcohol only reinforce the state you're already in. He proved his point once to a coworker by being grumpy at a party before he started drinking and sure enough he remained grumpy the entire evening.
Strange though that TV wasn't more relaxing.

Interesting! Well, it went away as it always does. Alcohol on Friday nights probably wouldn't work for me either. I do like it, but I have never really connected it to relaxation. Poisoning oneself is not the greatest tactic to let the body wind down I think.

Some weeks life feels like a race with no finish line. Even though the work week is over and my health app has given me a high five, I still feel like I'm in the race. Perhaps it's more the memory of the race, because I feel calm but it's still ringing in my ears.

I really don't want to offend them. I think they have a lot of compressed anger.

Sounds pretty universal these days. I could be wrong though - the universe is a big place.
