Tämä hallitus se jaksaa yllättää surkeammin ja surkeammin.

Nyt Essayahin johdolla kaavaillaan takapakkia eläinten oikeuksiin.

Se on sietämätön ajatus.

A Yale professor who studies fascism is leaving the US to work at a Canadian university because of the current US political climate, which he worries is putting the US at risk of becoming a fascist dictatorship.

This seems like a good time to remind folks of what Hannah Arendt once wrote:
Total domination does not allow for free initiative in any field of life, for any activity that is not entirely predictable. Totali- tarianism in power invariably replaces all first-rate talents, regardless of their sympathies, with those crackpots and fools whose lack of intelligence and creativity is still the best guarantee of their loyalty.u

Ylen Jälkipörssissä Piia-Noora Kauppi kauhisteli, kun 35% suomalaisista ei säästä ollenkaan.

Johtuiskohan siitä, että kaikilla _ei ole varaa säästää_ ja sitä ei myöskään sallita, mikäli elät esim. toimeentulotuen varassa.

Vasemmistoliiton kansanedustajien tekemä lakialoite vaatisi, että tuotanto­eläimiä kohdeltaisiin yhtä hyvin kuin muitakin ihmisten pitämiä eläimiä.

Kiellosta ei toki ole kyse, toisin kuin otsikossa kauhistellaan, vaan vain eläinten hyvinvoinnin varmistamisesta.

The Army just deleted without explanation its page about the 442nd “GO FOR BROKE” infantry regiment—the Japanese American WW2 unit that is the most decorated in US military history.

This is actually pretty cool, Noa and Mira Awad are both advocating for peaceful solutions for Arab-Israeli conflict, and against the current policies Israel has implemented against Palestinians.

Noa and Mira Awad perform on the "palco", a mixed-language version of John Lennon's "Imagine", in Arabic, Hebrew, and joining together for a chorus in English.

Quite revealingly, their voices don't match incredibly well at first. But after a bit, it works.

Some quite big changes coming to Eurovision this year:
- Big 5 + SE perform full song during Semis
- Whole-of-show voting
- Expanded Rest of World voting

One thing's not changing, thank goodness:
- Petra Mede to host!
Major changes for Malmö: Big Five & Sweden perform LIVE in Semi-Finals and you can vote for longer
SVT have announced a number of changes being introduced in 2024 to make the Eurovision Song Contest in Malmö even more exciting.
