(1/4) I watched Trump next to Zelenskyy this AM, rambling and riffing for press. I was making notes, when - holy shit, did he really say that, when - holy shit, he just did a 180, when - holy shit, that made no sense, and holy shit, something else - I threw my notes away to make this post instead.

WOW -- Danish reporter *goes there* with Rutte "You sit next to Trump when he talks about conquering Greenland, lashes out at allies like Spain -- things it doesn't seem like the old Mark Rutte would approve of. Does this have any affect on your self-respect when you sit there and say nothing?"

Born on this day in 1593, in Rome, Artemisia Gentileschi. One of the great painters of Baroque Italy. Endured shit and painted about it. Here, herself as a martyr, Saint Catherine, 1616.

This is wild. 93% of the renewable electricity generation added to the Irish grid over that last decade now powers data centers, rather than reducing fossil fuel use. Data centers have pretty much annihilated the health and climate benefits those renewables could have provided.

ICE is not about immigration. ICE is not about the southern border. ICE is about normalizing paramilitary force on our streets. It cannot be reformed. It cannot be retrained. ICE must be abolished.

Men jag har ju läst på X att det inte går...

🚨BREAKING: The Trump administration is threatening to hold back terrorism-prevention funding from states unless they comply with a sweeping set of election demands — escalating President Donald Trump’s ongoing attempt to seize power over elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Cryptids, Monsters & Ghosts Song of the day: Enjoy one of my all time bands. I learned to play drums from their early albums. Item of interest, the guitar player chopped his finger tips off in an accident and still found a way to play guitar leads. Tony Iommi www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lVd...

Riktigt bra text!

Hatar att tjata (lol nej), men: ryck kragen av henne också. Bra, ok, tack.

"Hur kan det bli så? För att satsningen på kärnkraften inte bara är energipolitik utan också en gigantisk förmögenhetsöverföring från arbetande människor till ett fåtal företag." arbetet.se/2026/07/06/v...

OMG. Well, this is ridiculously encouraging.

Something beautiful for the weekend! An extraordinary Acheulean handaxe knapped around a fossil shell c. 500,000-300,000 years ago! From West Tofts, Norfolk 📷 MAA Cambridge University collections.maa.cam.ac.uk/objects/4509... #Archaeology

Wow, these ancient Egyptian linen tunics are 3,400 years-old! They belonged to Kha, who was the ‘director of works’ responsible for the design and construction of royal tombs in the Valley of the Kings. 📷 Museo Egizio, Turin collezioni.museoegizio.it/en-GB/materi... #Archaeology

When I first read this 30 years ago, it was clearly SciFi. Re-reading it now, it feels like a different genre. (also, it holds up: Atwood is a great writer)

”Antalet personer som lever på bidrag och andra sociala ersättningar som sjukpeng eller a-kassa minskar stadigt i Sverige, och är nere på rekordlåga nivåer. Antalet invandrade som kommer i arbete ökar stadigt, och bäst går det för de ensamkommande…” Ett medialt haveri. www.vk.se/2026-06-01/m...

This woman has more bravery in her little finger than any one of these racist incels.

Östgötatrafiken har sålt tio gånger(!) så många 30-dagarskort sedan prissänkningen. Det kanske inte är en så dum idé att göra kollektivtrafik överkomligt.

This July 4th, the Trump regime is pushing a new Red Scare. This is an actual White House post. The regime is pretending that communism is a serious threat to America.

Hannah Arendt, politisk teoretiker, förklarar mekanismen bakom SD:s systematiska normalisering av rasism, som har indoktrinerat den svenska högern och skapat ett extremt farlig tankesätt genom desinformation, demagogisk propaganda, generalisering, demonisering och avhumanisering.

It’s hot as hell and We The People are madder than hell. This WILL explode.

Our Constitution bans foreign emoluments and names bribery as an impeachable offense. Another case where the problem isn’t the Constitution.

Bra text! ”Det här en historia som för sällan blir berättad: all den uppskattning en journalist får när hon gör sitt jobb. Vi journalister faller i det avseendet i vår egen fälla när den egna yrkeskårens situation ska skildras: storys om hat är oftast bättre nyheter än storys om kärlek.”

Mycket bra. Tänk alla på att vi är de 80 procenten som tycker klimatet och miljön är viktig och vill att något ska hända. www.sydsvenskan.se/kultur/tror-...

The other day I noted the only way Trump would keep paying Event Strategies to put together humiliating public events is if it were a vehicle for corruption. Today, Natural Resource Dems released a report substantiating that corruption. emptywheel.net/2026/06/29/t...

This is what an actual true patriot looks like. God bless you and protect you for your courage!

A huge crater between apartment buildings. This is what a russian missile left behind in Kyiv. Families lived here. Children slept here. One more neighborhood turned into a battlefield by a country that calls itself a “liberator”

Det är valrörelse och X-högern pumpar på med sin bränslepopulism. Samtidigt rapporterar media om klimatkrisens offer i ett stekhett Europa. Vanmakten görs till kortsiktighetens behagliga dörrmatta och gemensamt ansvarstagande stämplas som ”muppig” extremism. Sorgligt…

EMERGENCY EPISODE: The Supreme Court upheld birthright citizenship 6-3, rejecting Trump's executive order — but three justices sided with Trump, and Justice Kavanaugh's concurrence signals the fight may not be over. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmzh...

The real headline from the birthright‑citizenship case isn’t the outcome. It’s that four Supreme Court justices signaled they believe a president can effectively rewrite the Constitution through executive order.

Public spaces are full of personal stories. This square in Malmö Sweden had just been transformed back into a people-place from a parking lot when I was sitting in it at the moment I thought of the name for our soon-to-be-born son, and texted my wife.

Att, efter alla resurser som tillförts och alla rättigheter som offrats på brottsbekämpningens altare, se resultatet att polisen inte löser fler brott är oerhört anmärkningsvärt. Hur kan vi tillåta polisen att vara så dålig? www.dn.se/sverige/fakt...
