Sedan 1993 har vi haft marknadshyror för statliga fastigheter, som museer och universitet. Som så mycket annat i den svenska idén med att få offentligt ägd verksamhet att fungera som företag är det en pseudomarknad som saknar centrala mekanismer för hur företag fungerar och agerar.

It's enchanting, and about as far afield as fantasy standard as you can get.

Hearing you both stress the weirdness of the text and call for music that isn't "elf shit" - I implore you to check out Bo Hansson's "Music inspired by the Lord of the Rings" from 1970 (intrntnl release 1972). Its a Swedish cult classic, a concept album of instrumental prog rock (with synthesisers!)
Den svenska fattigdomen är bland den mest rasifierade i västvärlden:

Totalt lever ca 17% av majoritetssvenskarna på marginalen eller i fattigdom medan ca 54% av de s k andragenerationarna och ca 75% av de utomeuropeiska invandrarna gör detsamma.
Would be very keen to hear you discuss Friedrich Kittler
Breaking news: US Border agents just shot two people in Portland, Oregon.
It's almost as if they are intentionally trying to desensitize us to their violence, to make us accept that they will kill whoever they want, whenever they want.
If we do, things will only get worse.
Fight back together.
If I was head of the WI and an 80 year old trans woman told me it was the only place she'd ever felt respected as a woman, and the British State told me she wasn't allowed to bebin the WI any more, I'd be putting out a public statement declaring the WI to now be an armed guerilla organisation.
"It's too costly to stand up for you, but we pinky promise we have solidarity with you" is bullshit.
"We have no choice but to discriminate against you" is bullshit.
They could use their platform to spotlight Gender-Conservative hatred, or demonstrate actual commitment to their stated principles.
In Lebanon. Can hear the Israeli drone constantly now. I’ve only been back for a day but folks here deal with it 24/7, for months. It’s psychological torture. You can even see it, just flying around. The Israelis want to let everyone know that they can kill whoever they want whenever they want.
Screenshot of an article headline "AI layoffs to backfire: Half quietly rehired at lower pay" with "at lower pay" being highlighted
This is sometimes read as "look 'AI' isn't working". But the opposite is true.
_This_ is what "AI" is _for_. Push down labor power, push down wages, make employment more insecure.

Fast svenskan har väl snarare gått ännu längre i att tant helt tappat innebörden släkting
Utskick från Arbetsdomstolen idag och allt framstår än mer absurt än igår. Jag kan inte komma på någon historisk eller geografisk parallel. Var och när har man egentligen stängt ned domstolar för att det saknas pengar?
AI is about industrializing knowledge and service work.
So far, much of that work has been resistant to offshoring, because from teaching to cashiers, it often needs to be performed at point of service, and in real time. We're seeing capital trying to crush that barrier.
#OtD 12 Oct 1999 Swedish warehouse worker, rugby fan, revolutionary unionist and anti-fascist Björn Söderberg was murdered by fascists outside his home. His union, the SAC (@syndikalisterna), held marches of 10,000s in protest stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/8438...
Bild på Björn Söderberg, som mördades av nazister 12/10 1999.
Antifascism är självförsvar. Minns Björn Söderberg.

New form to sign the petition for a Special Meeting of the EAA (to discuss the genocide in Gaza and the handling of the situation by the Executive Board). Previous one was reported and taken down by Google for "violating its terms". Wonder who reported it?🤔 #eaa2025
BTC Call for Action - EAA
EAA reversed its decision to exclude Israeli institutions complicit in the genocide of Palestinians after intimidation campaigns.
Read & share the full statement: blacktrowelcollective.wordpress.com/2025/09/02/b...
I've just resigned from the EAA. Sad to leave an organisation I have been part of for decades, but collaboration with genocide is unthinkable. #stopthegenocide #stopapartheid @archagainstaparth.bsky.social
Response from the BDS-movement (Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel) on the EAA. If you are a member, go to the AMBM today and voice your opinion!
I saw one prepper years ago who pointed out: the overwhelmingly most likely reason you have to leave your house in the middle of the night is because someone you love is dying in a hospital.
If your prepper stuff doesn't make sense for travelling to see a loved one die in a hospital, it's fantasy
a still of mahmoud khalil as he exited ice detention. he’s wearing a long sleeve khaki button up and a white and black keffiyeh wrapped around his neck. he’s got a big smile on his face and his fist raise in the air, defiant and proud.
Mahmoud Khalil is free.
Council for British Archaeology The Council for British Archaeology 5,702 followers 3h In light of recent correspondence and the open letter shared with us following the UK Supreme Court ruling on the definition of 'sex' under the Equality Act, we are sharing the following joint statement from the Council for British Archaeology, the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists (CIfA), and University Archaeology UK. "Archaeology should be a discipline where everyone feels welcome and empowered to participate. Our organisations are firmly committed to promoting inclusion by identifying and removing barriers to engagement, and by fostering a sense of belonging for all individuals. We are grateful to everyone who has taken the time to engage thoughtfully with this issue. Within our respective organisational remits, we are working to ensure that all individuals can contribute equally to working in, learning about and celebrating our wonderful discipline." - CIFA, CBA, and UAUK The CBA will be responding to the Equality and Human Rights Commission consultation in due course. In the meantime, we will continue to share resources and guidance to support all aspects of equality, diversity, and inclusion across the archaeology sector on our website. If you have been affected by recent developments or are looking for support, we encourage you to explore these materials and reach out to the helplines available https://lnkd.in/e9BZDSd9
Disappointed in joint CBA @archaeologyuk.bsky.social, CIfA & UAUK (...am I really surprised FAME didn't even bother?) statement in response to open letter asking for support for trans & gender diverse archs.
#Archaeology needs vocal allies, not shuffling generalities released on the quiet...
Holy shit a bunch of ICE prisoners who weren't getting fed broke down a fence and escaped this fucking rips
Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Different ways of thinking about restitution of stolen heritage? Move from 'repatriation' to sovereign states towards a recognition of craft communities and elite exploitation.
