What double standards! No sanctions for Israel or US who caused this in the first place?

Week 1 in Kenya. First things first, transport strike, electricity cut, a bit of chaos but I attended a circular economy expo, met with our partners, dropped into the Embassy of Finland, and today spent planning Tuesday’s SciFest. Tired but happy!

Happy Mother’s Day! Hyvää äitienpäivää! Glad morsdag!

Klara vappen!

Thank you Addis Ababa, was a wonderful 10 days. Equitable academic partnerships brought me here, I return with even more questions but also lots of viable solutions.

Vance’s kiss: he met with the Pope, he met with Orban… seeing a pattern here? 💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽 He should lay it on the tangerine in the white house and the bully of the middle east, and we shall all have some peace.

Second easter Sunday this year. Happy Easter. #Easter #Ethiopia

Apparentely my past self has drank coffee. This is just about the strongest coffee I have ever had in my life. I won’t sleep for a week. #Ethiopia

On a time-travel quest to 2018, destination Addis Ababa. Apparantely, a rule of time-travel is that one shouldn’t do anything to disturb the past, only observe. Would it be a good idea, though to warn the world about covid, and what happens when the tangerine enters the white house?

”It absolutely terrified me," she recalled, adding: "I was alone and so upset... it was humiliating." While I sympathise, this shouldn’t happen to anyone. But also, I don’t sympathise. White folk have a lot of travel priviledge, so this seems whiney to me. Travelling when black is stuff like this.

This is gonna be worth something someday.

Happy Easter! Hyvää pääsiäistä! Glad påsk! Pasaka njema! 🐣🐣🐣

Be like Japan!

How so very authoritarian. Looking at this from a research security perspective, US is not a friendly state.

Beware of the “shithole countries” The US should not take it for granted that access to and control over African resources remains at its discretion. Today, those territories insulted as “shitholes” has acquired a substantial bargaining power, writes Henning Melber.

Siinpä nähdään Euroopan, Britannian ja USA:n suhtautuminen ihmisoikeuksiin ja arvoihin. Entäs jos asetelma olisi toisinpäin? Globaalin enemmistö on tässä oikeassa ja meidän pitäisi hävettää kaksoisstandaardiemme.

Under what law is this acceptable. Last summer, the tangerine in the white house called Iran the bully of the Middle East. That’s not true, the bully is Israel. Why are we not sanctioning Israel, the same way as Russia? Bloody double standards, international communtiy.

Happy St Patrick’s Day! The most brutal Irish curse I’ve ever heard is go ndéana an diabhal dréimire de chnámh do dhroma ag piocadh úll i ngairdín Ifrinn. It means “may the Devil use your backbone as a ladder to pick apples in the garden of Hell.”

You’re in our thoughts Murica, plus we’ve got a massive migraine right now caused by the little orange criminal in yer White House. Give us a ring when ye get rid of the fella, will ya?

Tunnin juna-aukko 😅 En ymmärrä miksi Turun ja Hkin välillä pitäisi rakentaa joku tunnin juna kun siellä on jo toimivat yhteydet. Kokeilkaa kulkea Hki-Joensuu, Hki ja Kuopion väli on parempi. Mutta lie tarkoitus pitää itä-suomen ilman kulkuyhteydet.

Happy Pi Day! Apple pie in a bag, is heavenly #soulfood

The world would be such a better place without three war-hungry idiot men. May the demons keep their cells cold while they wait for the future occupants.

En ihan tajuaa tätä tilastoa. Neuvostoliitto??? Neuvostoliitto hajosi 1991. Miksi tälläinen luokitus vuosina 2014-2019? 🤨🤔

Governments and politicians

Vuonna 2021 valtaan palannut Taleban hallinto on pyrkinyt tuhoaman naisien ja tyttöjen oikeuksia. Olisi voinut kuvitella, ettei tilanne voisi enää pahentua. Kunnes näin kävi. Suomi ei voi seurata sukupuoleen perustuvaa apartheid-järjestelmää hiljaisena sivustakatsojana. Lue lisää! ⬇️

If Iran has laid mines in the Strait of Hormuz, it would be a catastrophe for the global economy. It would take weeks or months of specialised work to demine the route. Trump is utterly out of his depth. All of this was long predicted by open source analysis of how a war with Iran could unfold.

Today is Mario Day (Mar10) so let us all take a moment to remember both Mario and his brother Luigi. They deserved better than this...

Pääministeri päätti sitten naistenpäivän kunniaksi kävella kaikkien eduskuntapuolueiden naisjärjestöjen yli ja jääräpäisesti pitää kiinni naisten syrjintää lisäävästä esityksestä määräaikaisten työsuhteiden helpottamisesta. Hyvää naistenpäivää vaan.

These people are deranged. If they get jihaded, they honestly deserve it. Despicable and sheer evil.

Hyvät kysymykset!
