My "I don't have Alzheimer's" shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my shirt.

If you have the time and energy to do this you have the time and energy to clean your own bloody apartment.

Now we only need Trump to arrest half his cabinet on corruption charges and we’ll be really doing Chinese governance with American characteristics.

As I wrote regarding the threats to Greenland, Republicans say these deranged things because that’s how they get their kicks. open.substack.com/pub/deadcarl...

A note on 21st century sources: While Twitter itself was completely lost in 2030, large portions of it can be reconstructed based on references and screenshots in later works

It’s one thing being told (politely or rudely) to do more for your own security - or even being abandoned by the US. It’s a completely different thing that the US is now actively acting in ways that threaten or decrease European security, not only on Greenland but also by accommodating Russia

This reminds me of the Swedish officer I saw on the bad place saying he didn’t worry about the US invading Greenland because he’d “seen American soldiers trying to ski”

Interesting episode thought it would have been even better if it had not ended in the terminally America brained opinion that Europeans should not be allowed to invest in their defence sector. Not sure when this was recorded but it is a spicy take less than a week from the US threading to invade.

Organized Chaos agents- what is this, a bad Black Library novel?

Tapping my “‘This isn’t us’ is a normative rhetorical move not a literal claim of historical fact’ sign a lot today

Tuchmans histories are fascinating, not because they are good but because they both actively harmed great power relations and also arguably helped prevent WWIII. True historian as a historical actor without even aiming for that.

When someone tries telling me I must not be a real Star Trek fan.

In the 2010s, the Icelandic tv station Channel 2 accidentally added subtitles from a gritty crime drama to an episode of Teletubbies. I have translated some of the highlights

Guys I’m Swedish so I’m an expert in weird faux neutrality but I still have to tell you this makes no sense

Yesterday it was cows using tools, today its penguins using satellite imagery.

A key point here in an excellent thread by @maxbergmann.bsky.social: Continuing with the grovelling strategy, distasteful to the European publics from the start, would likely have a domestic political cost to European leaders. It’s time for a strong response now. Enough is enough.

Last summer, the EU (the Commission) was held back from retaliating by weak member states. The Commission is likely going to be unleashed now. And they have been doing a lot of thinking about how to retaliate. The question is how far are they willing to go. 3/

There is a precedent for a person getting someone else's Nobel Prize. In 1943, the Norwegian writer Knut Hamsun, gave his Nobel Prize in literature to Joseph Goebbels uwapress.uw.edu/book/9780295...

Incredible piece of Search Engine Optimisation

They are literally doing the sketch now

Sweden said Bofors deez nuts

We talk about how core nations can give restitution for colonialism, how European governments can meaningfully address the wrongs of the past. Defending an indigenous state from a hostile imperial takeover and guaranteeing their independence would be a start imo.

You should think of the late 1980s and early 1990s in the same terms of 1848, 1789, and 1917 for revolutionary years. 🇰🇷 🇿🇦 🇧🇷 🇨🇱 🇹🇼 🇭🇺 🇵🇱 🇦🇷 🇨🇿 🇸🇰 🇷🇴 🇱🇹 🇪🇪 🇱🇻 🇷🇺 🇺🇦 and many others I can't remember atm all experienced a new birth of freedom in those years. Tyrants from the left and right fell.

One out of 12 rams is uninterested in females. Deemed “non-procreative" by farmers, they're typically sent to slaughter. German farmer Michael Stücke rescues the gay rams. His company Rainbow Wool, sells fabulous wool products from his flock of gay sheep. rainbow-wool.com

Nice armada of drones and ballistic missiles you have there Mr Xi. Unfortunately for you I have already remade one of your official photos to you wearing a bikini.

Remembering Titanic lookout Frederick Fleet who, sadly, took his own life on this day in 1965 in the garden of 8 Norman Road, Southampton. His wife had recently passed away and he was in the process of being evicted from his lodgings. 1/4

Brussels, we can not let the Brits steal a march on us like this. Ban it now.

Stores really fleecing people these days…

I see news reports talking about Europe's dependence on America for its security as an unavoidable fact of life. It isn't. It's the result of choices made by Atlanticist leaders on this continent for decades, and Europeans who kept voting for them.

Anyone doubting this need to search for conformity gate on tumblr it is…something alright

Sometimes you can see in renaissance religious art which artist had kids and which ones didn’t.

One guy tried, unsuccessfully, to blow up a plane with a bomb in his sneakers, and everybody had to take off their shoes at the airport for the next 20 years. Chatbots have a collective body count equal to Richard "The Night Stalker" Ramirez, and they're trying to put them in schools.

Bill Watterson could do Sin City but Frank Miller could not do Calvin and Hobbes

Hey I’ve seen this one!

This is, of course, nonsense; the problem is simply that when some people talk about the United States and say “no other country’s leader does this“, they are still thinking of other countries like France not Turkmenistan.

I know that clowning on the Trump admin--filled with a bunch of degenerate, social‑media‑poisoned neo‑Nazis who have no plan beyond crime and plunder--might be fun. But please don't forget that at least 40 civilians have been murdered in this illegal stunt, and their suffering often goes unnoticed

They’re against democratic legitimacy, which is premium-grade legitimacy; but they’re against nationalist legitimacy, communist legitimacy and even royalist legitimacy. They want to rule unaccountably, and they are opposed to any theory that could hold them to account.

I will never apologize for a post
