In 2010 we created a fake political party in Estonia. Today I found an old video on Youtube - me explaining our playbook for Lithuanians. I think our populism engine, starting at 11:22 explains Trump. youtu.be/FbIB3yB1C5o?...

I have some unverifiable but plausible hypotheses, like:
The total amount of animals in the world remains the same, if you count in all the toys.
Vanarahvas ütles lihtsalt "särtsakas" v "pauk". Ikka sai asjad aetud.
Koerte nimed meenutavad lahkuvat Tallinna linnavalitsust, kasside omad seda, mis peale tulemas on.
Palu kõigil kingitusi tuua.
Üks tüüp tegi just trammis sellise chemtraili, et rahvas läks Norde Centrumi juures maha. Tavaliselt seal ei lähe keegi maha.
See kui Grünthal suuga sireeni teeb, on sohk.
Possibly the best line to describe the economy today appeared in Politico.eu: “On Reddit’s r/beer, a forum of nearly half a million brewing nerds, the mood was bleak.”
Hyper reality.
Kiu ma tahan, et minu potsitsui edsapidi rohkne jgataksn, siis kritjangi nii, riaks;
Kuidas sa saaksidki ennast sealt leida, kui sul pole tiktokki.
Võib olla tõi vabatahtlikult tagasi.
Russia has been turning ex-famous people into information mules for a long time. Actors like Gerard Depardieu and Steven Seagal, journalists like Larry King, intellectuals like Noam Chomsky and economists like Jeffrey Sachs have all blindly supported Putin's regime at some point. What's the catch?
We created this object to visualise the fact that Estonian women do signicantly more work at home than men, such unpaid tasks also make it difficult to develop a career. This kettlebar will travel around events and locations in Estonia this week. #womensday
Europe needs to step up its defence. Meanwhile you can enjoy this video about the best German mountain biker.
Estonian Eurovision candidate Tommy Cash is extraordinarily smart, he operates on levels that many people do not yet grasp. Anyway, there will be art, politics and disco! eurovisionworld.com/esc/estonia-...

Minu nipp konverentsi vaheajal puhvetijärjekorra vältimiseks: söö esimesena magustoit ja teisena soolane. Ülejäänud lollid seisavad samal ajal pikemas sabas.
There is a fresh interview with me on polarization and impact and on the reasons we created a media laboratory in Estonia. Big thanks to Ulrike Rohn and ScreenME podcast! #media #polarization #entrepreneurship open.spotify.com/episode/43mx...
Ma ütlesin ka, et "much of". Midagi toimus ka Eestis, kuid ehk mitte sellel tasemel nagu USA-s. Osaliselt oli see lihtsalt algoritmiline ning näiteks teatud teema puudutamine võis lihtsalt valla päästa mingid sanktsioonid, kuid see pole ju fact checking. Samuti ilmselt massiline reportimine mõjus.
East European dudes celebrating the termination of FB fact checking, although FB in East Europe never did much of fact checking.
Jah, nõus, ei tasu olla üleolev.
Oh these glory days of Soviet childhood.

A graph depicting brand worth of Nike, Tesla, Estonia, Audi, Paypal and IKEA. Nike is the biggest, Tesla commes second, and then Estonia.
Estonia's brand, not exactly Nike, but over 3x more valuable than Ikea? (This according to Global Soft Power Index and some Estonian public officials).
Dude calls himself shadow president, proposes ski lifts instead of trams in Tallinn.
Estonia's leading business newspaper recommends to raise money by playing "responsibly and systematically in casino". Although it appears with "content marketing" label, studies have shown that more than 60% of people may not make a distinction between this and real stories.
