Zelensky has led the Ukrainian people against Russian aggression for over 3 years. He has aged 30 years in that time. And there he sits in the Oval Office with two mindless gorillas threatening him and shouting utter nonsense at him. Never in my life have I seen anything so undignified.

Sanna Marin throwing some impressive shade here: ”To start, Europe must rid itself of the dangerous illusion that it is weak—and stop acting like it. There is no trade-off between investing in the defence of Europe as a whole and investing in the defence of Ukraine—they are one and the same.”

It pleases this former president to no end that the Finnish Historical Society has launched a new portal with a fresh visual look (and some English as Swedish content, too). Congratulations to the board, and especially to the secretary general, Sari Aalto. Well done!

Longitudinal data has the potential to transform early intervention in mental health, but it’s an underutilised resource. That's why we're funding researchers to use these datasets to find new ways of identifying anxiety, depression and/or psychosis ⤵️ wellcome.org/grant-fundin...

Fellow historians (and others). I plan to teach a course on Weimar Rep, with emphasis on science, philosophy and culture (but politics can hardly be ignored). Historiography is an embarressment of riches. I’d love to hear about your favourite Weimar books (in English, German, French or Swedish).

A few more to go - namely former sanatorium buildings included in our Healing Houses book project. In bleak November light, we visited the former Päivärinne Sanatorium (1932) in Northern Finland. The house has undergone few major renovations but is well maintained, with most original features left.

An introduction may be in order: I’m a historian of medicine and health, with focus on modern and contemporary times. My interests - too many for my own good - include tuberculosis and other infectious diseases, generation and uses of health data and the relationship of built environment and health.

Tässä lähtee vahva viesti hoitoalan opintoja suunnitteleville nuorille: ei kannata. Huonon palkan lisäksi tarjolla epävarmoja, poliittisille suhdanteille alttiita työsuhteita. Hoitajapula ja vanheneva väestö - siinäpä hieno tulevaisuudennäkymä. yle.fi/a/74-20124957
