This is a *really good* piece on how the #EU works: a civics class that actually makes sense. I totally agree, the Union is far too often *presented* needlessly complicatedly.

Musk is preying on European ignorance
Over the past week Americans have shown they have no idea how the EU works. But let's face it, most Europeans don't know either because their education systems failed them. Here's a simple explainer.

📣THREAD: It’s surprising to me that so many people were surprised to learn that Signal runs partly on AWS (something we can do because we use encryption to make sure no one but you–not AWS, not Signal, not anyone–can access your comms).

It’s also concerning. 1/
PSA: we're aware that Signal is down for some people. This appears to be related to a major AWS outage. Stand by.

Excellent thread that I kinda had been waiting for.

The question isn’t "why does Signal use AWS?" It’s to look at the infrastructural requirements of any global, real-time, mass comms platform and ask how it is that we got to a place where there’s no realistic alternative to AWS and the other hyperscalers. 3/

Kristillisestä sionismista puhutaan – mikä ei yllätä, sillä vaikuttaahan se jo Suomen ulkopolitiikkaan nykyisen hallituskoalition kautta. Siksi esitän muutaman teologisen huomion kristillisestä sionismista, sillä sellaisia liian harvoin meillä kuulee. 1/10 www.hs.fi/suomi/art-20...

Tutkijan mukaan Suomessa on yllättävän paljon kristittyjä Israelin ystäviä. Kaksi heistä kertoo, miksi he puolustavat Israelin toimia Lähi-idässä.

Just for the benefit of everyone who doesn't understand the dynamics here I just want to make clear that if you go to any Ukrainian newspaper's social media page their goofy millennial chain string of emojis about any headline about the US threatening to drop their "mediator" role is 🫡✊️🚮
"If you don't accept our shitty deal where you have to concede a bunch of things to the Russians in exchange for nothing, we will offer no more shitty deals."

Like, uh, okay? That one, please? The latter? Fucking duh?

Nyt on hyvä hetki allekirjoittaa Laki Särmään -kansalaisaloite! Sillä on huimaloppukiri, mutta KAIKKI JAOT ja rummutus tarvitaan nyt! Suomi on pieni valtio ja sen paras turva on sääntöperäinen maailmanjärjestys. Kansanmurhaa suorittavalle maalle pitää tulla seurauksia, esim ettei sen aseita osteta.

A reminder that calling out Israel about their genocide of Palestinians is NOT antisemitic.

I'm Jewish, and I think it goes against Jewish tradition to *not* call it out. "Zachor" (remember) and "never again" are phrases used by Jews specifically about the Holocaust. Yet here we are.

Haa uusioyhdyssanalistalleni, jolla on toistatuhatta sanaa tuli tänään yksi lisää: "häpykielenhuolto"
