With this said, just actually make a proposition of this madness is a shame for a parliament of this scale and dignity. They should know better. It is unworthy and it makes EU an embarrassment. Though not the first time and probably not the last.

The good news is there's still a chance to stop it. National governments need to weigh in and decided whether to support the idea.

Bad news - the European Parliament voted to ban "meaty" terms like burgers or nuggets from being used on meat-alternatives. That means no more veggie burgers or Quorn chicken.
Is Michelle at the Fed mentioned here, possibly a descendant to THE Dave Bowman who hovers around in space after his possibly unfortunate visit to Lapetus? #2001Aspaceodyssey

This is Sweden in one of its more exotic fashions. The island Gotland never stops amaze me. Today we walked the trail “Kustleden” from Ireviken to Harudden. Are you here @pergen.bsky.social ?
Dear Europe,
Trump completely melts under pushback.
So push back.
FAFO.
Thoughts and prayers for Maye Musk and Elon Musk's sister Tosca Musk.
“You take this one, I take care of this” and so on. Otherwise we’ll get exhausted and occupied of reacting and run out of competing ideas and visions (if we aren’t already…)
Or at least, let’s split up the job between us, act like a team, right?
Let’s take a couple deep breaths and realize we can’t react on the ongoing madness of our time for four years ahead.

They all got it wrong - except the bad (worse?) guys in the far East. Meanwhile everybody makes their everyday lull.

Jag försöker se det som sker nu som att företagen betalar för sin överlevnad - som gåvorna till kejsaren, eller beskyddarpengar till det kriminella nätverket.
…Extra svårt också när mycket av det man konsumerar hamnar i fickorna på företag baserade i länder där man saknar rösträtt.
Man kan ju också välja, eller låtsas, att vara helt politiskt ointresserad, hur det nu skulle gå till."
"Ska man bojkotta en får man nog också se till att bojkotta alla.
I dagens samhälle krävs det väldigt mycket jobb/energi av den enskilde individen för att avpolitisera vart ens pengar går….
Vi hade en diskussion om det här i familjechatten i morse. Ett klokt inlägg av ett av barnen var det här:
Panel 1: Mark Zuckerberg stands on the stage at a Meta all-hands meeting, wearing a little chain and a shirt that says "Cool Dude." "I think our company could use more Masculine Energy," he says into a mic. In the crowd, an employee raises their hand. "Excuse me, Mr. Zuckerberg," the person asks. Panel 2: The person stands up, asking, "By "Masculine Energy," do you mean a mature definition where men in power use their relative strength to protect and uplift those less privileged?" Panel 3: The person continues, "…or a more childish definition where men in power are free to be aggressive and harm others without being held accountable?" Panel 4: Zuck stands silent for a beat. Panel 5: "You're all fired," he says.
"Masculine Energy"
A copy of a tweet or similar with headline “What are the most profound jokes ever?” An MIT linguistics professor was lecturing his class the other day. “In English,” he said, “a double negative forms a positive. However, in some languages, such as Russian, a double negative remains a negative, But there isn’t a single language, not one, in which a double positive can express a negative.” A voice from the back of the room piped up, “Yeah, right.”
This meme or what to call it really reaches the highest standards imo. So incredibly brilliant.
Sorry for not being serious, but sometimes a laugh could be a short-term comforter. The topic is really serious though, and in Sweden we should stop mimic everything you guys do, but it’s hard times here too right now. The Onion has a slew of valid points…

This is #johnossi @ #annexet. The Boys are getting older but they are keeping their style.
So strange behavior from the right-wingers to obsessively refer to “wokeness”, whilst normal people like me (🤔) don’t see “woke” in anything. Of course things can go a bit haywire when morality becomes business, but the trend of dismantling progressiveness is so tangible and tiresome.
The most noble pursuit. May they rest in peace.
This is in no way surprising, given nowadays political and moral and perceptional and whatever winds,streams and trends. The Airbnb idea is completely bizarre, for real. Who is the potential customer, and what goes on inside his/her head?
Sowed garlic for harvesting next year. A real serious attempt. I find the natures built-in lack of agility somehow liberating. It is more of continuum and resilience.
an orange cat has his enormous front paws stretched out in front of him. he also has his tongue sticking out but in a cool way
I had a lot of things to do and while I was trying to do the things more things happened so when I finish the FIRST things there will already be OTHER things to do. Fed up of doing things
Many people think that as you get older, you care less about politics. But it’s not true.
You start thinking a lot more about the kind of world you want to leave behind. You want it to be better than the one you were born into.
We all have a personal legacy in mind. Mine is to outlive Trumpism.
In the still present post-election hangover and anxiety, let’s try our best to have a laugh at some really good humour on this theme that we actually should leave now for coping and endurance.

Is this what he in part is building? In part because I believe some candidates really are smart (though wrong focused) but RKJ certainly isn’t part of them

People who don’t have a clue that they turn on their webcam in online meetings. How do they actually do? Why is this so cringe?
Or is it deliberately?
