En kjempemorsom men også alvorlig artikkel om hva "mannosfæren" prøver å gjøre med unge menn. Fra den kjempewoke publikasjonen (sjekker notater) Playboy

We had endless articles and TV clips about Biden's mental capacity but silence about Trump's obvious unfitness when he says he's going to start a war with Denmark over Greenland because he didn't get the Nobel Peace Prize.

Da er tallene ute. 1300 skadde på elsparkesykkel i Oslo i fjor. En skade koster samfunnet fra 20.000 (legevakt) til 147.000 (sykehus døgn) så fjoråret kostet skattebetalerne minimum 97,5 millioner.

Her kommer den moralistiske venstresiden (meg) og påstår at det er dumt når Arbeiderpartiet sier én ting og gjør noe helt annet. Skriver i @dagsavisen.bsky.social i dag om små og store løftebrudd fra et stadig mer maktarrogant Arbeiderparti. Lik og del og god jul!

Fully funded Ph.D. position in economics open - please apply and/or inform your promising students! Application deadline 28 February. www.oslomet.no/en/work/job-... This is an open-topic fellowship, with research proposals aligned with the economics group's research interests being given priority.

It has become received wisdom in Brussels and Washington that there is a new “euro-sclerosis”: that the EU economy is lagging the US This view is wrong A little primer on the measurement of productivity – and why reports of the economic death of Europe are greatly exaggerated🧵

Kan ikke Jabob, Filip og Henrik la Gjert får patent på "Ingebrigtsen metoden", så kan de heller få patent på "Ingebrigtsen-metoden" sjøl? Litt rart å ta patent på noe som er skrevet feil... Hegerlenke: www.tv2.no/underholdnin...
