I have just finished reading The Rape Gang Inquiry Report.
It is, without a doubt, the most horrifying document I've ever read in my life.
There is no close second... and it's worse than you could ever imagine.
Here's everything you need to know 🧵
Norge har altså, hvis jeg har forstått det riktig, vært med på å nominere Iran til et råd som skal utforme FNs politikk om menneskerettigheter og kvinners rettigheter?
Er dette kødd?
Kommentar, @jonasgahrstore ?
Flaut å være norsk.
The Norwegian town of Rjukan is not a place to live if you suffer from Seasonally Adjusted Disorder (SAD). It receives no direct sunlight between September and March, thanks to the mountain Gaustatoppen, which blocks it. But the Norwegians came up with a genius solution.

My wife just phoned me and the conversation went like this:
Her: “You know that Gladiator movie that I got you for Christmas…?”
Me: “Yeah.”
Her: “Wind it forward one hour, 16 minutes and 28 seconds.”
Me: “Right, I’ve done that.”
Her: “Okay, you see the gladiator at the front fighting the lion…?”
Me: “I can see that, yeah.”
Her: “Just behind him, there are two gladiators having a sword fight with each other…?”
Me: “Okay, I see them.”
Her: “Well, behind those two, on the left-hand side of the screen, there’s a gladiator holding a spear…?”
Me: “Yes…! I can see him.”
Her: “Right…! Those are the sandals I want for my birthday.”

this is a weird feeling but let me explain
when I think of my wife, it's not just love there, there's this protectiveness
I know on some soul-deep level she's got an innocence and loveliness that I will never ever have, and it's my job to protect it and keep the world lovely because it has her in it
and being in close proximity to this loveliness for a few years, that protective feeling kind of extends to other people.
I imagine it's even more visceral when you have daughters
so seeing what happened with Iryna, is like a visceral, animalistic gut punch, a deep spiritual anger.
does anyone else feel this?
A generation of Marines, Soldiers, Sailors, and Airmen - fought in far off lands for the idea that we were ‘defending our country.’ Many fought, killed, were injured, and made the ultimate sacrifice willingly because they believed in protecting their country and the innocent.
Any one of the veterans I know wish they could have been there to defend you Iryna. In so many of our states and cities the social contract is broken. If you love your country and wish to defend your loved ones and family we need you.
We need our best to serve within it’s borders: join your local police, join ICE, join the FBI - but most importantly - show up in force to peacefully vote out and eject the villains that allow the tyranny of criminals and these atrocities to continue.
The European Union's Digital Services Act (DSA) claims to target only harmful content in Europe, but our analysis of the House Judiciary Committee's recent report reveals that the DSA pressures US tech companies, including X, to enforce censorship on a global scale—including American political speech. This conflicts with core US principles, as the First Amendment protects freedom of speech, which includes freedom of expressing ideas that may be controversial to some users. We advocate for more speech, not less.
