Anders Tegnell is getting a medal from the King, happy National Day, Sweden.

No way someone is trying to scam people using AI fakes of Agnes Wold. Don’t they usually go with like Dua Lipa or something?

That’s wonderful to hear ❤️ happy for you

Herregud, jag trodde att det var en gammal artikel!

I’m really glad he’s running the government now

Guilty by proximity

A digital illustration features three shopping bags, two yellow and one blue with the EU flag (a circle of yellow stars on a blue background). The text "Your rights as an EU consumer" is displayed above, with "rights" and "EU consumer" highlighted in yellow. A dotted line runs across the image, adding a visual flow. The small EU emblem appears in the top left corner.

A digital graphic with the heading "Repair, replace, or refund" in bold black text. The text explains that EU consumers have a minimum two-year guarantee on purchases and can get faulty goods repaired, replaced, or refunded for free. Key terms such as "two-year guarantee," "repaired," "replaced," and "refunded" are highlighted in yellow. A circular icon with a euro (€) symbol is at the bottom, with arrows indicating the three possible options (repair, replace, refund). A dotted line flows through the image.

A digital graphic with the heading "Safe products" in bold black text. The text reads: 'Safe products. Products offered to EU consumers must always be safe. If a dangerous product appears, companies must take immediate corrective actions.’ The words 'must always be safe' and ‘immediate corrective actions’ are highlighted in yellow. Below the text, there is a blue seal with yellow stars resembling the EU flag, displaying the text '100% SAFE.' A dotted line with yellow and black colors loops around the seal.

The image is titled "Travel rights" in bold text. It informs that passengers may be eligible for compensation if their flight or train is delayed, canceled, or overbooked. The word "compensation" is highlighted in yellow. Illustrations of a blue paper airplane and a yellow suitcase are present, connected by a dashed line that flows through the image.

Europeans have some of the strongest consumer protections in the world!

Whether that’s shopping, travelling, banking, or surfing the web, the EU has been working hard to keep consumers safe for more than 50 years – both in stores and online.

Update: my mother has finally received said bath mat TODAY.

She is not impressed by the quality.

“Vance skis in jeans” is such a brutal takedown.

Have them saying that they don’t publish unless they have the consent from family, which would have been humane and understandable, but this is not the picture I am getting, but rather my own rationalization.

Now it feels like they are doing a “victim reveal” every day

Yeah but one was shot and called his fiancée, I just find it so unlikely that especially the men wouldn’t have their wallets with ID on them since they often have clothes with actually functioning pockets.
I realized I should not be speculating, but something doesn’t feel right and I would rather

No I agree with waiting and respecting the wishes of the families, but maybe I am cynical, but it feels like a calculated move to breadcrumb information to not call this for what it is.
They clearly had no problems with letting family members wait for days before delivering the news..

Are they revealing the names of the victims one by one like a macabre advent calendar?

This is shocking and truly heartbreaking. And the not knowing, just horrible

Not that I am longing to see the names of the victims, but are they seriously going to feed us the same “we are not painfully slow, but in Sweden we have a system and this is why we are so much better” bullshit in every circumstance?

Oh no, this is going to catch more clicks than the toddlers playing in the mud like piglets.

Platå!

My mother called and she needs help ordering the bath mat 😭

“”Håll avstånd” – men inomhus räcker inte det. Covid-19 kan smitta på bara några minuter via luften, visar en ny studie från Lunds universitet.”

Jan 2025.

My colleague in China has reportedly Pneumonia.
While I wish him a speedy recovery I am also hoping this is not the beginning of a story that we have already lived.

I can’t believe I am so upset about this, but I really don’t understand how when you call a number to say that “I have looked at the website but I couldn’t…” the first interaction is

“YOU. ARE. ALREADY. WRONG.”

and that sets the tone for the whole (very short) conversation

One sentence in.
“YOU ARE ALREADY WRONG”.

Excuse me?

Second sentence in.

“So that means that you haven’t even LOOKED at our precious catalogue”.

Well if I had all the answers and was an expert in decoding grocery store collaboration bath set I wouldn’t be calling the information center WOULD I?

I called as it was unclear whether I could get it delivered at home or pick it up at their store.
Thing is, at home delivery in Italy means a random time between 9 and 6 pm tue-sat with no idea where the collection point might be if you are not at home.

2025 is already promising, I have already had my first telephone fight with the local grocery store when attempting to inquire about the delivery of bath mat my parents have “won” through fidelity points at their information center.

So incredibly rude.

Know your EU consumer rights!

With the Digital Services Act (#DSA) and the Digital Markets Act (#DMA), we want to make sure that:

✔️everybody’s online experience is safe and smooth

✔️online sellers treat EU consumers equally regardless of where they choose to shop

Worse than troubleshooting my parents’ old printer which never seem to be in the mood to work is only installing my parents’ new printer hoping that it won’t pick up the same habits.

I remember the whole discussion about masks being “a problem” for children development as they allegedly couldn’t capture facial expression when to be honest you can very much see eyebrow movements.
Interesting that those people didn’t think of bringing up Botox to the discussion.

JAx si è trasformato in Pitbull #lannocheverrà

I noticed it too! I have so much respect for Keira Knightley after this! Of course she looks gorgeous, but it a “normal human face” way which is hard to see
