No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less.

He's just lost it. Now saying Rob and Michele Reiner caused their own murder because they didn't support him.

So sick.

Shame on our country.

I'm lounging about in a dark blue polka dot pyjamas, a slightly more rubinesque version of Audrey Hepburn.

A couple of weeks ago I ordered 2 boxes of these. They're already gone. Ordered some more. Try them with a slice of Stilton or any blue cheese, pure heaven.

I wonder how long it will take Trump before he puts the pressure on Finland and Sweden. Anything to please his best mate Putin. As a Swede all I can say is 'dra åt helvete' to both of them.
Once again, Russia has only itself to blame for this. It was its aggression that caused Finland and Sweden to join NATO and its Russia’s aggression that has strengthened the European alliance and put it on a war footing.

Funny how the rightwing can't get their head around this. A Muslim man trying to save Jewish lives. Typecasting might work in Hollywood, not in real life.
7News Australia reports that the hero who jumped and disarmed one of the terrorist shooters

His name is Ahmed el-Ahmed

A 43 year old married father of two

He owns a fruit shop in Sutherland

No experience with guns

He was walking past

He has two bullets in his arm

Pity the US doesn't allow snap elections. It could come in handy right now.

Putin sits in Moscow claiming that his armies have taken a town that the Ukrainian president is personally visiting. There are cowardly tyrants and there are courageous elected leaders and it is good to know the difference.
Putin said Russia had taken Kupiansk weeks ago.

Today, Zelenskyy visited Ukrainian troops there.

Not visiting the US anytime soon or ever.
NEW: Five years of social media history is only a fraction of what the US Government will shortly demand of overseas visitors.

The full requirements will end tourism in the United States.

Below is the full, mind-blowing list.

🚨THEY. WANT. YOUR. DNA.🚨

Danish intelligence has declared the United States, alongside Russia and China, as a threat to national security for Denmark and Europe. It warns that the US may use military force against its own partners and allies.

To all my supporters and supporters-to-be.

You help me show Ukraine to the world.
You inspire me to keep going, even when I’m exhausted.
You break the ice of indifference I so often see.

Thank you – I needed to say this today.

Drinking wine and dressing the tree while listening to the adventures of Karl XII during the Great Northern War. I sure as hell hope we don't have a second Northern War but who knows. Trump in his infinite wisdom is aligning with Russia and Russia is deploying submarines into Scandinavian waters.

Russia attacking from the east, the US from the west. The richest man in the world is also "helping out". As a European I'm starting to feel somewhat nervous.

I curse the day Fred Trump didn't pull out in time.
Anybody who is still hoping that Trump's America is a friend to European nations and the EU should read this.
He, and his administration, clearly want a far right take over of the continent.
He is not our friend. He is not even our ally.

‘Cultivate resistance’: policy paper lays bare Trump support for Europe’s far right

Being chatted up by a random guy when you're a woman in your 60s is a somewhat novel experience.

Data centres are energy hungry but what if we could use their waste heat to heat our homes?

That's exactly what happens in places like Finland: Cities are tapping the vast amounts of waste heat generated by data centres, and feeding it into district-heating networks.

I've turned into the female equivalent of a grumpy old git silently muttering "you're in my way kindly fuck off". Crowded Christmas markets appear to have that effect on me.

For the first time I'm almost glad I can't vote in UK despite living here. Obviously I would vote to stop Reform but with FPTP the choices are dire. Labour, what the fuck are you doing?
How have Labour watched the Tories spend 2-3 years parroting Farage then lose an election badly and conclude a similar strategy is the best course of action?
I. Really. Genuinely. Do Not. Get. It.
Just another of those days when I hate this government

As a Scandinavian, I humbly ask Americans to once and for all learn the bloody difference between Social democracy and Communism.

Long discussion with my sis in Sweden. After the usual chitchat about family and weather, she swiftly changed to American politics. I can't recall ever discussing American politics her before. I can't recall her knowing the name of the White House press secretary. To put it mildly, she's not a fan.

When Trump won the presidency a year ago, I was depressed for a weak. Tried telling myself, get a grip, you're not American, you don't live in the US. It didn't work, I had this ominous feeling of danger that the orange lunatic would plunge us into WWIII, either by design or plain stupidity.

My mother loved toads, I'm not entirely sure why. She loved them so much she would pick them up and drop them off in the most unexpected places. In my bed when I was asleep, a somewhat alarming experience. On a buffet table sending drinks flying. She would have loved the dancing frogs of Portland.

Aging woman all by her lonesome sitting in a pub and not giving a fuck. One of the few advantages of aging, not giving a fuck.
