Blogginnlegg: Jeg har skrevet nøyaktig så langt som dere forventer at det blir når min sedvanlige detalj-nidkjærhet møter det isfjellet av overtramp som denne Helene Uri-skandalen inneholder. doremusnor.wordpress.com/2026/01/18/u...
Uris uutholdelige letthet
I sin nyeste roman går Helene Uri mye lenger enn annen virkelighetslitteratur som tar utgangspunkt i ekte personer, ved at hun aktivt og totalt unødvendig blander inn sitater fra den faktiske domm…

How do you deal with a situation where the most powerful man in the world has dementia, and his courtiers won't act. Stuff of nightmares.

This is 100% correct and the EU should do it immediately.
The USA will break if a bunch of entitled Americans suddenly can’t book get-aways in Paris.

Sums it up.
Europeans, Canadians and Mexicans can't trust America again until America visibly changes in strategic approach and cultural outlook towards the world. Americans can't afford their hubris anymore.

Vi får si som Churchill:
«You were given the choice between dishonor and straffetoll. You chose dishonor and now you will have straffetoll.»
Støre og Norge valgte vannære.
Selvsagt til ingen nytte.
Vi burde stått FJELLSTØST med Danmark, ikke smiske og krype i håp om en kortsiktig gevinst.

For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.
The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.

Opinion | I'm a Minneapolis sociologist who studies violence. Here's how ICE observers are helping.
Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

In NW Europe child marriage was RARE!

Dersom idioten faktisk innfører straffetoll fra 1. februar bør alle som kjøper amerikanske varer og tjenester vurdere om det finnes gode europeiske, canadiske etc. alternativer. Det gjelder også reiser. Med dette tempoet er det ikke sikkert det blir noe fotball-VM å reise til.

Ah yes, the famous Treaty of Territorial Control of 1526.
Miller: Denmark is a tiny country with a tiny economy and a tiny military. They cannot defend Greenland… Under every understanding of law that has existed about territorial control for 500 years, to control a territory you have to be able to defend a territory…

Det faktiske funnet er forøvrig grådig interessant. Som arkeologane sjølve seier her, endrar det ikkje noko i historia, men det er veldig kjekt å finna så godt bevarte døme på det me veit fanst, likevel.

Ok, this just won't do! @popsci.com describing a 15th century Dutch/Hanseatic cog as "Viking"?! This is worse than useless, and shows how little these people care about actual history. All popular, no science. I'm bloody angry! No, this is not pedantry:

600-year-old Viking shipwreck is the largest of its kind
The medieval ‘cog’ was nearly 92 feet long and featured castles on its bow and stern.
