Nordic solidarity getting louder tonight, with President of Finland Alex Stubb and Swedish PM Ulf Kristersson re-iterating support for Greenland and Denmark, after Danish PM Mette Frederiksen's comments to Trump.

Since illegally abducting Maduro 10 hours ago, Trump has threatened to take action in:
- Mexico
- Colombia
- Cuba
It’s blatantly clear he wants to take over the whole region and isn’t gonna let laws get in the way.

I think Rockhill's book is actually representative of a more general trend that has captured part of specifically pop history and pop political science which I will now cryptically entitle "the truecrimeification of social science for a popular audience"

The fraud from Somalis is out of control. Moderately priced wine tastes about as good as extraordinarily expensive wine. In double blind taste tests, preferences have little correlation with price.

UK labour is currently defined by policies that support genocide, hate disability, are anti-trans, anti-lgbt, anti-migrant, anti-choice, anti-free speech, anti-freedom-to-protest. 'The left' is built on values of equality, solidarity, justice, better lives for all. How is this so hard to understand?
Glad the FT is asking the question. Even if I’m not convinced they found a compelling answer.
I get that Starmer & Reeves are unpopular, I really don’t understand the extent of the dislike.

Bronstein's "If I Had Legs I’d Kick You" is one of the best directed films I've watched recently. Amazingly executed representation of psychological collapse, and manages to work as an allegory for the horror of both pregnancy and parenthood. Nearly flew under my radar.

Much like pseudofeminist arguments for criminalising abortion, this latest nonsense about legally enforcing monogamy to protect women from abusive men is just an apprortiation of feminist framing for patriarchal ends.
Fun fact: Adultery laws are primarily a thing in heavily patriarchal and explicitly theocratic nations. India only declared its adultery law illegal in 2018.
It's all about retrenching notions of ownership in intimate relations, during a time of ascendat patriarchy. Shit sucks!

I’ll never forget when I saw a TikTok of a zoomer saying there should be laws against cheating that send people to jail and all the comments were agreeing and I was like what the hell is going on

The transphobic worldview is completely insular. It dogmatically dismisses any debate about the "facts", and the facts are, of course, not determined by the majority (or near consensus) of scientists and philosophers (who are, of course, all "compromised"), but by some peasant's folk "common sense".

This tracks with my experience. DHS made up stories like this in Chicago, too. Every story ICE told about being attacked by community members was debunked in court. To assume anything they say is even potentially credible is irresponsible and out of touch with reality.
Re: the ICE actions in south Minneapolis Monday. DHS said "rioters" attacked officers with rocks and pepper spray. Note: I received lots of evidence and didn't see any rocks, the only pepper spray I saw was ICE agents sometimes spraying each other. I did see snow and possibly ice being thrown. (1)

Anyway, yeah, I really dislike how gamers are able to strong-arm developers like this. It’s not something you see much in other mediums, thank god. Imagine a novelist being pestered into changing *their* creation because people complain about how it isn’t exactly 100% what they wanted.

Remember when you censored Judith Butler for calling the gender-critical movement fascist? Or when you ran an editorial both sides-ing gender identity reform? Or when you quoted a transphobic hate group as a neutral source? Or when you basically republished one of their press releases verbatim?

Once more in the very unfortunate position of having called it btw. I told you Starmer would make moves against the ECHR or threaten to leave the council of europe. Everything he does is very predictable if you take them seriously as a far right government.
