The Pentagon’s Preferred Propaganda Model
The Trump administration is trying to muddle reality—and create apathy.

"Recoup the costs"
The sadism of American policy to war-torn Ukraine
The premise of American foreign policy to Ukraine, today, is one of grievance. It is worth patiently considering the proposals. They reveal little about Ukraine, but much about America in February 2025.

Twitter hade i början en stjärna som sedan ersattes med hjärtat. Och hjärtat som symbol kan ju vara nog så ljuvligt för något känslosamt inlägg men det är malplacerat när de flesta inlägg ändå är någon typs sakfråga. En bra kommentar om bränderna i Kalifornien - hjärta?

Washington Postin uutinen Itämeren kaapelirikoista on Hybridiosaamiskeskuksen johtajan mukaan tyystin perätön.

Rather impressive action by Finnish authorities. And the Finnish hallmark: Coast Guard, Police, Defence, Customs - all in seamless cooperation.

Finlandia-palkinto | Jo toisen Finlandia-palkinnon saanut huippukirjailija nostaa esiin suomalaisen rasismin
Finlandia-voittajan valinneen Alma Pöystin mukaan Pajtim Statovcin Lehmä synnyttää yöllä on ”knock out”, jota vastaan ei voi puolustautua.
Kirja juhlii mielikuvituksesta saatavaa lohtua Vaikka olisi kuinka heikoilla, sisältään voi löytää voimaa taistella paremman huomisen puolesta epäoikeudenmukaisessa ja epätasa-arvoisessa maailmassa Ihmiskuntaa koettelevat sodat, ympäristökatastrofit, poliittinen kahtiajako
