Apparently Biden does not want to win. He will rather attend a fundraiser in California, than represent US in a meeting for achieving peace in Ukraine like a world leader.
Laitan nyt selityksenkin tähän vielä että MIKSI tämä on hauska.
Mieskulttuurissa aggressiivisuuden kyseenalaistaminen on niin perkuleen vaikeeta.
Niin vaikeeta, että tälläisiä tilanteita tulee vastaan jatkuvasti ja miehet on vaan et: ”Mitä?”
Aggressiivisuus on mieskulttuurissa sisäänrakennettu defaultti ja ihannoinnin kohde. Siksi palvomme tunnekylmiä sosiopaatteja, ja kerta toisensa jälkeen haksahdamme suuriin poliittisiin johtajiin.
”Kova jätkä”… Sanomme sen vailla ymmärrystä tosi usein.
Joillekin tutuille miehille on tullut yllätyksenä se, että öiseen aikaan naiset tosiaan suhtautuvat epäluuloisesti jokaiseen liian lähellä perässä kulkevaan mieheen ja että yleensä se perustuu kokemukseen. Itselläni on kokemusta jopa sellaisesta, että tuttu mies, kaverin veli, jonka kanssa kävelimme yhtä matkaa ja juttelimme, alkoikin sitten kotiovella ängetä samalla ovenavauksella sisään. Tällaisten kanssa varsinkin nuoret naiset joutuvat elämään.
Congrats America, you convicted #trump and have shown there’s still #ruleoflaw in place: The politically affluent aren’t excepted from having to follow the same laws as everyone else.
But! Don’t get comfortable now! This is only the beginning!
#MAGA by and large doesn’t seem to subscribe to the principle of rule of law, and there will be plenty of popular support to overturn the ruling coming your way next.
Were you prepared fo winning this, America? Can you hold back the backlash?
This image has now made the rounds. My conclusion made from comments seen on social medias around the world is that quite the many people are in fact on board with burning books.
”Terrorist books” is what makes the difference, apparently.
Oh, how quickly does the thin veil of civilisation erode. And was it really there to begin with?
People playing civilised, being brutes. This is the true story of modernity.
I think the lesson is deeper and more sobering in the end
Human DNA has not changed, and perhaps it is us liberals who are the biggest fools: We use our vision of a more fair and just future to drive development towards it.
Yet, that narrative we spin to actually change things (yes, that’s how it works) also gets us
We forget our postmodern lens -not applying it to ourselves- and miss that enough people will still jump on to lynches and book burnings

First panel: Aragorn (US flag) says, "You have my sword."
Second panel: Legolas (British flag) says, "And you have my bow."
Third panel: Gimli (French flag) says, "And my axe."
Final panel: They wave goodbye to Frodo (Ukraine flag) who is wielding a sword, axe, and bow, and wearing Gandalf's hat. Gandalf says, "But do not use them in Mordor! We do not want escalation from Sauron."
If I wanted to avoid escalation by militant Islam in the #middleeast, I wouldn’t start by making a quarter million able-bodied men homeless & motherless with nothing to lose.
@gimulnautti surely they will get gainful employment building the soon to be Israeli occupied Gaza apartment blocks with sea views. You know, the ones that Palestinians will never be allowed to visit once built.
In a groundbreaking study from 2017, Chatard et al found social comparison to be subliminal.
In the study women were shown images of thin women or heavy women at sub-conscious threshold viewing times of less than 20 milliseconds.
Even when they consciously didn’t register seeing them and weren’t able to make the comparison, the study found feeling good or bad about their bodies still consistently affected.
It means we can’t educate ourselves away from this.
We can of course alleviate some of the problems that follow, and we should. Social media provides way too many supermodel-shapes to push those buttons teenagers still don’t know how to react to.
And it is important for educators also to try and not ”talk some sense into the kids”, but promote healthy reactions to the inevitable.
@gimulnautti nautin tässä siitä että Terveystalo on just käynnistänyt kalliin imagokampanjan (Mehiläinen teki ensin joten varmaan FOMO iski ja piti saada vastaava). Niin toimari tai kukalie voi nyt katsoa näiden miljoonien valuvan roskiin tämän ansiosta
I guess I’ll start preparing for a Trump victory. Not because I think the donald is doing good, but because what Biden is saying about #israel may cost him the election.
This latest dismissal of the International Criminal Court (ICC) in particular.
Liberals understand the importance of #ruleoflaw. And undermining that just out of hand with broad strokes and bravado.. Is just digging dirt from under everyone’s feet.
I mean ”Show me the incentives and I’ll show you the results” has never been clearer.
I bet even now at least ten thousand 12-year old kids are studying their retention metrics underneath the blanket, hiding from their parents, trying to figure out how to squueze out an extra second from their next content.
@gimulnautti I feel that you're assuming a lot, essentially you're projecting your own imagination on an organization, a group of people functioning to solve complicated questions regarding risk and knowledge at the limit of normal engineering. This group of people is a poor surface for your psychological projection. A certain mogul maybe is a better surface but that doesn't remove the reality of engineering. That's why your post should tell anyone more about your believes than about SpaceX.
Vihdoinkin kuulee sen mitä oon itse yrittänyt sanoa, että tässä on ihan turha #politiikka tehdä siitä että kaupallinen media vs #yle.
Todellisuudessa se on #piilaakso mikä on se joka vie leivän suusta niin yleltä kuin maikkariltakin.
Metan, Googlen tai Tiktokin (tai vaikka sit Fortniten tai Minecraftin) päälle rakentaminen on pelkkää puolustusta, jossa lopulta alustat syö sut kun on ensin hyötyneet sinusta.
I’m old enough to remember communist parties in democratic #elections. They were #farleft.
But just because we now have electoral gains by the parties farthest left in countries like #finland and #denmark, doesn’t mean it was a far-left victory.
The people on the #farright are going to try and make it sound like it. Be warned.
These parties are ”pure left”. Actual left, not playing left.
What makes them different is they don’t apologise for being #left like the centre-left parties often do.
