My gut feeling is that the explosions in the three buses near Tel Aviv were a false flag operation. A pretext to defend what is now happening in the West Bank. But, that's just a gut feeling, nothing more.

Kanskje er det på tide å la Lotteritilsynet overta reguleringen av kryptomarkedet. www.nrk.no/rogaland/ung...

Det burde ikke være lov å drive nettbutikk i Norge hvis man ikke har en enkel og gratis returordning.

Imagine if someone had made this prediction in 2014: In 2024, Russia and North Korea, backed by China and Iran, will be waging war on a European democracy, and NATO won’t stop them.

"As Hemingway once wrote of bankruptcy, the collapse of autocratic regimes tends to happen gradually and then suddenly—slowly, and then all at once." www.theatlantic.com/internationa...

A friend points out that dictatorships, nowadays, also fail because they run out of money. They can't steal enough from the state to pay loyalists, wind up relying on narcotics trade or international crime (true of both Syria and Venezuela, for example) and then their soldiers stop fighting

Georgia continues to stand up for democracy. Real resistance doesn’t protest for only a day, it takes place for as long as it’s needed. #georgiaprotests

The events in Syria have made the world realise once again, or at least they should, that even the most cruel regime may fall and that Russia and its allies can be defeated.

Please share - the regime forces unlawfully detained people to say the opposition leaders are behind the protests, in an effort to jail everyone just like they promised before the elections. One detainee managed to get the message out and is on a hunger strike now. #TerrorInGeorgia #GeorgiaProtests

FANTASTIC NEWS! Romania’s Constitutional Court has just annulled the first round of the presidential election due to heavy Russian interference. The second round will not take place on Sunday and the first round will be re-run. The electoral authorities will have to validate all candidates again.

Musk explains his X algorithm

Again a Delaware judge says no to Elon Musk getting a $56 billion pay package from Tesla. I like that.

Elders are also protesting, despite the violence of the Moscow backed government and the risk of mass arrests. The younger protestors are shielding them from the water cannons and rubber bullets. All of Georgia remains defiant. #GeorgiaProtests

Zelenskyy stayed in Ukraine to fight Russia. Assad fled to Russia at the first sign of a fight. #freeSyria #freeUkraine

That warm fuzzy feeling when you ratio Olaf 🥲

I can totally get behind this.

Where there is darkness there is light, where there is ignorance there is enlightenment, and where there is fear there is bravery. Things are never so bad they can’t get worse and they are never so bleak you should surrender.

At the entrance to Kyiv's memorial park, a haunting sculpture depicts a very thin girl with a very sad look and a handful of wheat. Behind her stands a giant Candle of Remembrance of the Holodomor, a man-made famine that killed millions of Ukrainians.

Tesla has the highest rate of deadly accidents, their model S and model Y rank among the most dangerous of electric automobiles.

Russia fired a 2nd ICBM and hit itself. That’s all you need to know about its nuclear capabilities.

I read a paper edition of the Financial Times today, cover to cover. Encountered all kinds of topics that algorithms would never show me.
