@PenttiPerttula Minsk ja Smolensk ovat riittävän lähellä Pietaria tähän.

Historic day in Boden on Sweden’s National Day. The Battlegroup from Norrbotten Regiment is placed under SACEUR’s command and becomes the core of NATO’s Forward Land Forces in Finland. As Framework Nation, Sweden takes responsibility for Allied security in the High North. (1/2)

It’s Men’s Health Month!

To every man reading this: you matter. Your health matters. You are not disposable. To the women who love them—wives, mothers, sisters, daughters—men’s health touches all of us. It’s time to reject the blame game, support funding for men’s health, and build a truly equitable society where every person’s health counts.

@GlobalDiss EU must suspend HER rights. For the children.

A young man working at the grocery store, probably 15 years younger than me, just boldly asked me out on a date. I told him I wasn’t single, but I admired his confidence to ask me out. He seemed proud of himself.

To all the younger men who follow me… ask women out. Keep trying. Don’t let rejection stop you. And women, even if you’re not in a position to accept, treat men with respect and encouragement if they ask you out. Together, we can promote better relations between men and women!

Girls struggling: “Something is wrong with the system!”

Boys struggling: “Something is wrong with boys!”

Do you see the problem here?

@Oksii33 Norway's hypocrisy is amusing. They have a visa-free policy for border villages and keep on granting Russian oligarches easy visas and unrestricted rights to property.

Some politicians in the UK think it is a good idea to introduce identity verification for using VPN services.

It could be that these politicians do not understand what they are proposing. The alternative, that they do understand, would be even worse.

Whistleblowers, activists, and journalists depend on anonymous VPN services. Requiring identity verification for VPN services would put them at risk. It would also have a chilling effect on online debate (VPNs can help people post anonymously on social media).

In authoritarian countries, VPN services are crucial forcriticizing the government. That is precisely why such governments seek to ban or restrict them. Hopefully, the UK will not join that list.

Estonia's defence relies on the dedication of its 100,000 reservists.

To highlight their commitment and recognise their invaluable contribution to national defence, we are currently marking Reservists' Week in Estonia.

The initiative offers reservists and their families a wide range of benefits, discounts and special offers across the country. Numerous events are also taking place across Estonia to raise awareness of national defence, encourage broader societal participation, and show support for reservists.

A piece of #Estonia’s history came home today. Saved from Kadriorg Palace in 1944 by 14-year-old Scout Eugen Vilder, hidden in exile in Australia for more than 80 years, the flag of the President of the Republic is now back in Estonia.

[Puolustusministeriö @DefenceFinland]

NATO’s Forward Land Forces Finland (FLF Finland) will be officially founded on Saturday 6 June 2026.

The launch of FLF Finland is a significant step in the process to strengthen Finland and the northern flank of the whole Alliance.

As an Irishman living in Ukraine I am ashamed of both my government to let this happen and my people for their hypocrisy. If this plant was supplying Israel there would be mass protests across the country but it seems like Ukrainian lives aren't as important as Palestinian lives

Serious question: How does the U.S. always find trillions for wars, but suddenly runs out of money when Americans need healthcare, lower taxes, affordable housing, or a better quality of life?

[Alexander Browder @Alexbrowder_]

Proud to be the first high school student in the world to ever be sanctioned by an authoritarian regime for uncovering corruption. It just proves that the work I’ve done to expose Russias sanctions evasion stablecoin, A7A5, has touched a raw nerve.
