Ola Wenström wrote that it was difficult to take in the news about Sladjan and described him as outspoken, knowledgeable, and independent. Wenström remembered their years together in sports TV, with strong opinions, laughter, and lively discussions. He wrote that Sladjan had a great passion for football and reminded viewers that the sport was about more than results and tables. Wenström thanked him for the football, the discussions, and the impressions he had left and concluded with a message of rest in peace. #fotboll #människor #sport (translated)

Steffen W. Frølund wrote that a Danish data center developer had appeared before the committee on the same day. According to him, the company had its own wind turbines, solar panels, and a large molten salt battery, used excess heat for district heating, and covered 80 percent of its electricity consumption itself. He wrote that the data center therefore had a modest draw on the grid, while the battery could support the grid, and that it provided district heating locally. Frølund noted that data centers were placed at the bottom of the rationing queue and wrote that it did not make sense. #datacenter #bæredygtighed #vedvarendeenergi (translated)

Malin Ekman wrote that men, according to her, had begun to adopt less flattering traits traditionally associated with women, especially men in public life. She argued that they moralized to maintain their place in social communities and pointed to Alex Schulman as an example. After Dagens Nyheter recruited him, he had, according to Ekman, repeated left-liberal positions already put forward by colleagues and expressed indignation over issues that fit within that environment. Most recently, he had reacted with disgust to support for Stefan Holm, who, according to Ekman, had attacked Schulman's friend in a bar after the friend had jokingly mentioned on TV eight years earlier about killing Holm and his son. Ekman described the mockery of Holm as typical of a community where people constantly judged who was accepted and who it was safe to mock. She argued that those who supported Holm did not necessarily defend his long-standing grievances or propensity for violence, but rather his right to stand up for himself and his family even when it went against prevailing notions of right and wrong. According to Ekman, they instead despised men like Schulman, whom she described as adaptable and prone to decide who could be ostracized. #mansfrågor #feminism #könsroller (translated)

Kristina wrote that Karl Oskar and Kristina did not encounter any welfare state, but had to build a hut and arrange for shelter, warmth, and food before winter themselves. She called it an essential detail in connection with Lindström comparing their situation to today's tax-funded asylum reception. #historia #välfärd #integration (translated)

Jari Mäkäräinen criticized Timo R. Stewart's column, stating that Stewart had already decided in advance that those who disagree are stupid and racist. According to Mäkäräinen, Stewart defined racism as evaluating individuals based on their ethnic or religious background and concluded that such individuals had nothing useful to say about international politics. Mäkäräinen mentioned that the column likened the observation of group differences to climate denialism, young Earth creationism, vaccine resistance, and reptilians. He also claimed that it had asserted that the Finnish media, researchers, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs had adopted their Middle Eastern stance from Hamas. Mäkäräinen argued that the claim about the absence of pure races did not refute the phenomena indicated by statistics, attitude surveys, and street views. He highlighted religion, cousin marriages, concepts of honor, fertility, and renouncement of religion, adding that the common goals of Muslims could be examined from their own polls. According to Mäkäräinen, explaining unpleasant phenomena solely with prejudices and labeling dissenters as racists was essentialism. He criticized a sense of moral superiority and argued that it led to a lack of fact-checking, distinguishing between immigrant groups, or noticing that one's own media repeated Hamas's casualty figures. He believed that placing morality above observations weakened empathy. https://t.co/dglVfEEw2o #rasismi #media #ilmasto (translated)

Fedt. Både jeg og min hustru skal betale mere i skat pga. skattefrysningen. Vi skal også betale mere i afgifter på vores benzinbil og mere for benzinen til den. Til vores elbil skal vi også betale mere for strøm - og hvis vi vil skifte benzinbilen ud med endnu en elbil, så skal vi også betale højere afgifter på dén. Vores helt alm. hverdagsprodukter bliver dyrere og dyrere pga. mærkelige afgifter, vores strøm, vand og varme herhjemme bliver også dyrere og dyrere. Lige om lidt fylder vores ældste datter 18. Hun er sat lidt anderledes sammen i hovedet end de fleste, så hvis hun går i skole hele dagen, så er hun så ristet at hun i hvert fald ikke tage på arbejde bagefter. Men fordi at min hustru og jeg tjener mere end 700-ét-eller-andet-tusinde om året, så er det adieu til SU. Medmindre altså at hun flytter hjemmefra, hvilket hun overhovedet slet ikke er klar til. Når hun fylder 18 år forsvinder børnechecken. Yes, det er self. fair nok, da hun ikke længere er et barn. Det er så her at SU’en ville komme ind i billedet, fordi hun med nogle af de penge ville kunne betale for at bo hjemme. Kommer hun så ikke til at kunne. Så igen en defacto skattestigning til mig. Samtidigt lever jeg selv med bivirkningerne af at jeg, på trods af den røvfuld penge jeg hver måned sender til skattefar, som med alle regeringens skatte- og afgiftsstigninger kun bliver større og større fremover, modtager en elendig behandling af en udsultet psykiatri. Er efterhånden der hvor jeg har svært ved at finde noget som helst positivt i fremtiden. #Skat #Afgifter #Økonomi

Idag är årsdagen för utrikesminister Anna Lindhs död efter det fruktansvärda knivdådet på NK. Anna och jag tillhörde olika partier, men vi hade alltid lätt att prata med varandra och vi delade ett engagemang för vårt öppna och fria samhälle. Hennes alltför tidiga bortgång var förstås främst en förlust för hennes familj, vänner och kollegor – men den drabbade också ett helt land. Idag är vi många som minns henne med värme.

”valehtelija”, ”rasisti”, ”keksit näitä päästäsi”, ”emme tunnista ilmiötä” Näin mulle vastattiin kun kerroin helsinkiläisen rehtorin tuoneen esille ongelman luokalla olevista yli-ikäisistä oppilaista. Nyt kolme viikkoa myöhemmin kaupunki tunnustaa, että tilanteita on ollut. Tapauksiin on vaikea puuttua koska toimivaa lainsäädäntöä ei ole. Tällä hetkellä lapsen ikää ei voi luotettavasti varmentaa. Siksi eduskunnan pitää ryhtyä toimiin ja muuttaa lakia niin, että perustellun epäilyn tilanteessa lapsen ikä voidaan testeillä vahvistaa. Totuus ei pala tulessakaan! 🔥 #koulu #lainsäädäntö #opetus

Min bekanta som röstat rött sedan Hedenhös ringde och sa att han röstade på Liberalerna idag. Jag var nära att hämta champagnen. En röst bort från Magda och rakt in i Tidösidan är en ren seger. Att se en livslång sosse kasta in handduken värmer rejält i hjärtat. #politik #val2023 #demokrati

"Vi ska inte tillbaka till 2015" upprepar deltagarna i SVT:s migrationspolitiska debatt som ett mantra. Själv minns jag med värme all den solidaritet och generositet som så många svenskar visade prov på för att hjälpa sina medmänniskor, som kommit till vårt land för att få hjälp #migrationspolitik #solidaritet #Sverige #SE
