Den geopolitiske situasjonen: 1. Mbappé omtaler helt korrekt Mao som diktator 2. Kina klikker helt og vestlig media omtaler det som en kjempebrøler fra Mbappé 3. Mbappé og Real Madrid legger seg flat og ber om nåde. Sannheten er død.

URGENT! National Guard units are reportedly being mobilized across ALL 50 STATES ahead of next week’s midterm elections. Military sources say Guard personnel are being deployed to assist with federal cybersecurity efforts and potentially monitor ballot drop boxes. This raises serious questions about the military’s role in our elections. Please report any abnormalities these next 6 days.

Jeg bor i et sameie, og det er litt trafikk her, skulle tro at det gir en del økonomisk aktivitet. Kommunale og private helsetjenester kommer og drar, gartnere som stadig er innom, håndtverkerne kommer og drar daglig, stadig noe i fellesområdene som må vedlikeholdes eller utvikles, fasadevask, vindusvask, rens av ventilasjonsanlegg. Lista bare fortsetter og fortsetter. Dette var menneskene, men noen må distrubere og produsere alt materiellet. Og etter klokka 4 da kommer det tett med matbud. Jeg tror vi sysselsetter ganske mange nært og fjernt. Slikt man kan komme til å tenke på når man står på balkongen og ser aktiviteten🤷‍♂️

A Russian bot forgot to switch its account from MAGA to "Ukrainian." 😀 This is how Russians simulate public opinion and pressure politicians into adopting a pro-Russian stance—leading them to believe that this is what their electorate demands. That is why it is important to express your position openly.

Det er en klassisk Aleksandr Dugin fabrikasjon, der Kremls såkalte sjefsideolog tyr til absurd fantasi og reinspikka løgn for å fremstille et initiativ fra Støre og Stubb om europeisk samhold og støtte til Ukraina som en angivelig underkastelse under Russland og en angrende tilståelse om det Norske og Finske NATO medlemskapet.
Presidents of Finland and Norway confessed to Russia that they regret being in NATO and think on the politics of neutrality known as finlandisation in previous ages.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Official statements show no such confession. Finland's President Stubb and Norway's PM Støre (no president) called Putin on Ukraine war end, reaffirming Ukraine support and de-escalation. Readouts omit any NATO regret or finlandisation. regjeringen.no/en/whats-new/p… en.kremlin.ru/events/preside…

I wonder if the expression "basket case" comes from this🤔
In 1960s Istanbul, Turkey, bars and taverns hired workers called küfeci (basket men) to carry patrons home in large wicker baskets known as küfe when they were too drunk to walk.... In old Istanbul, some bars employed workers known as “küfeci,” or basket men, whose job was simple: carry home patrons who had drunk too much to walk. Using large woven baskets strapped to their backs, these porters would transport inebriated customers safely through the city’s steep streets. Most küfeci already worked as porters during the day, hauling goods through markets and docks, then earned extra money at night helping tavern-goers get home. The practice became so common that Turkish developed its own phrase for it: “küfelik olmak,” meaning to be so drunk you need to be carried home in a basket. Istanbul has long been known for service-oriented jobs like this. Even today, many grocery stores and markets employ staff whose role is to bag purchases and carry them to a customer’s car. Istanbul still has thousands of licensed street porters known as hamals, who carry heavy loads through crowded markets like the Grand Bazaar, sometimes hauling over 200 pounds on their backs. #archaeohistories

Det kan jo være greit at kommersielle aktører minner på at opposisjon finnes og at den opposisjonen kan bli posisjon en dag.
I’m sending a sledgehammer message to shipping companies whose tankers are transporting illegal Russian diesel to our ports. Reverse course while there’s still time.

Dette fenomenet er beskrevet i litteraturen. Man finner det i eldre litteratur og man finner det i samtidens skildringer. Det er også små dagligdagse notater, se neste post
Отличный и очень убедительный анализ отношения россиян к войне в докладе @ECFR @j_kobzova и @KadriLiik на основе фокус-групп и опросов общественного мнения. Без иллюзий: «Примечательной особенностью всех групп является отсутствие сочувствия к другим людям, будь то украинцы или соотечественники, отправленные воевать.». «Пожалуй, самый интересный и трогательный момент фокус-групп наступает ближе к концу, когда участники начинают размышлять о только что состоявшемся разговоре с исследователем „Левада-Центра“ и группой незнакомых людей. Большинство с некоторым удивлением признают, что подобные вопросы редко приходят им в голову. „Когда упомянули специальную военную операцию, я сначала подумала: ‘Что?!’ Но потом поняла, что её как будто не существует. Она настолько глубоко зарыта, что ты просто не позволяешь себе об этом думать“,-- говорит одна из участниц. Остальные с ней соглашаются. Люди на самом деле обеспокоены собственным будущим, будущим страны, тем, как будет развиваться война. Но лишь когда им задают соответствующие вопросы, они осознают, насколько им страшно. Объяснить это исключительно страхом перед репрессиями нельзя. Скорее, изменился сам характер социальных взаимодействий: о чём люди говорят, каких тем избегают, где и как общаются. Люди ощущают собственное бессилие, неспособность что-либо изменить. Поэтому, даже если они неравнодушны к происходящему, обсуждение подобных тем начинает казаться бессмысленным. Вместо этого они уходят в повседневную жизнь, сосредоточившись на выживании семьи. Люди погружаются, зачастую добровольно, в состояние, которое можно назвать „заколдованным сном“, стремясь отгородиться от бушующих за стенами дома бурь, включая политические решения, на которые трудно повлиять, хотя они затрагивают каждого. Такой „сон“ был характерен для российского общества на протяжении всей эпохи Путина. Это проявляется, в частности, в удивительной устойчивости общественного мнения: рейтинг одобрения Путина никогда не опускался ниже 59%. Возможно, война подвергает эту устойчивость испытанию, однако пока никакого масштабного пробуждения не произошло». «Как фокус-группы, так и опросы показывают, что, хотя большинство россиян (61%) считают, что пришло время мирных переговоров, они готовы мириться с продолжением войны. Они могут быть недовольны „специальной военной операцией“, но не считают себя способными повлиять на её ход. При этом большинство (59%) полагает, что, если добиться мира пока не удаётся, следует усилить удары, а не идти на дополнительные уступки Украине. Судя по всему, большинство сходится во мнении, что мир должен быть заключён на российских условиях. Более того, предлагаемые режимом обоснования войны, похоже, были в значительной степени приняты обществом. По словам одного российского исследователя, дело не в том, что Кремль способен просто навязать обществу свои нарративы, а в том, что они формулируются таким образом, чтобы находить отклик в уже существующих общественных представлениях и убеждениях». ecfr.eu/publication/bewitche…

Om når noen tar bolig i hodet ditt
Når «den sterke mann» bor i hodet ditt. For å forstå hva den sterke menns styre er og hva frihet er utforsk begrepene positiv og negativ frihet. Alle kan tilby «Frihet» så lenge du nøyer deg med begrensninger i ditt liv, hvis du en dag avviker fra den godkjente malen kan det ha konsekvenser. Nissen følger med på lasset. #protips

«Vårt modell er ikke Belarus, men Polen!». Budanov
🇺🇦 🇺🇲 The confrontation inside Trump's Ukraine peace negotiations is now coming into focus. Le Monde reports that Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner spent nearly three hours pitching Ukraine's presidential chief of staff, Kyrylo Budanov, a postwar economic arrangement built around restoring Russian oil and gas flows to Europe through Ukrainian pipelines. The meeting took place on October 9 at the Shell Bay golf club in Florida. Witkoff presented the proposal as a regional prosperity plan: Ukraine would collect transit revenues, Europe would receive cheaper energy, and Russia would regain access to commercial routes disrupted by the war. Budanov saw something fundamentally different. According to a witness cited by Le Monde, he objected that the arrangement would recreate Ukraine's dependence on Moscow. “Our model is not Belarus, but Poland!” he reportedly replied. The meeting was interrupted, and Budanov called Zelensky. When talks resumed, news arrived that Trump had announced a separate agreement with Putin involving Russian diesel. Le Monde reports that an irritated Witkoff then demanded that the Ukrainians accept the arrangement and stop striking Russian oil refineries, arguing that the attacks endangered the wider world. A source familiar with the Ukrainian delegation described its members as exceptionally distressed by the encounter. The account adds a revealing dimension to the commercial negotiations we have been tracking. The proposed Lukoil asset sale, Novatek's involvement in an Alaska LNG venture, the broader US-Russia list of business opportunities reported by the Financial Times, and now the proposed restoration of Russian energy transit through Ukraine all point to the prominence of energy deals in Washington's diplomatic approach. These are separate proposals, with different participants and legal circumstances. But Le Monde's reporting exposes the strategic disagreement underlying them. For Witkoff, restoring commercial flows appears to be part of the mechanism for producing a peace settlement. For Budanov, according to the account, those same flows threaten to restore Moscow's economic leverage over Ukraine. The reported exchange also raises a question about sequencing: why was Kyiv being pressed to stop attacking Russian refineries while Russia continued striking Ukrainian energy infrastructure? Le Monde's reconstruction relies on accounts of a private meeting. The reported exchanges have not been independently confirmed by the participants. Source: Le Monde

Russian President Vladimir Putin cited genetics to declare that Russians and Ukrainians are “one people” and reiterated his claim to Ukrainian territory, saying: “I think that it is not their territory but the historical territory of Russia.” wapo.st/48aZaZF

Det er motstandsvilje å finne.
New poll: 76% of Ukrainians living in Ukraine believe that armed resistance to Russian aggression must continue, even if some of them have to spend some time without electricity, running water, or sewage services. Only 15% believe Ukraine should accept all of Russia’s demands to preserve these basic comforts, even if it means losing the war. Since August–September, despite all of Russia’s attacks, public attitudes have remained virtually unchanged. 80% believe Ukraine should continue striking Russia’s oil industry, despite US demands to unilaterally stop doing so and threats to suspend or restrict aid. Only 11% believe Ukraine should refrain from such strikes, even if Russia continues destroying civilian infrastructure. 63% are prepared to endure the war for as long as necessary, while 21% are willing to endure it for up to another six months. These attitudes have also remained virtually unchanged throughout the second half of 2026. 62% trust Zelenskyy as president, while 35% do not. kiis.com.ua/?lang=eng&cat=re…

A high school girl in Mexico just won a gold medal for putting out fires with a speaker. It plays one deep, low hum and the flames die in about 5 seconds. DARPA tried the same idea back in 2012 with a rig so big and clunky they never took it any further, and hers runs on a 12-volt battery and a speaker she can carry around. Sound is just air being pushed back and forth. A low note at 30 hertz means the air around the flame is flipping direction 30 times every second. Flames only exist in a thin layer where fuel vapor mixes with oxygen. Shake that layer hard enough and it keeps getting stretched thinner, the heat gets pulled away faster than the flame can make more, and eventually the flame rips right off the fuel. Whatever tears off is too cool to keep burning, so it just goes out. DARPA's report put a number on how little it takes. Once the air at the flame is moving about half a meter per second, which is barely a breeze, the flame goes out, and pretty much any pitch can get there if you crank the power high enough. Low notes just get you there way cheaper, because a speaker moves a lot more air on each push when the pitch is low. Two engineering students at George Mason figured this out by trial and error in 2015. They started with super high pitches, 20,000 to 30,000 hertz, and all the flames did was shiver. It only worked once they dropped down to 30 to 60 hertz, which is basically the bass on a hip-hop track. Ángela Karime's build is a 12-volt battery, a frequency generator, an amplifier and a speaker, tuned to 30 hertz. She named it Vortex Tech and talks about it shooting out little rings of air, and that's real physics. When loud, low sound gets pushed through a narrow opening, the air curls up into rings like a smoke ring, and those rings carry a puff of air way farther than the sound would get on its own. In her tests it put out small flames from about 2 meters away. She went through five prototypes and over 100 tests in about a year, and she says it's put out burning wood, flammable liquids, electronics and cooking oil. The cooking oil one is a big deal. Throw water on a grease fire and it flashes into steam and flings burning oil all over your kitchen, which is exactly the kind of fire where you'd want something that doesn't put anything into the pan. Now, sound can't cool anything down, so a big fire sitting on red-hot fuel can come right back the second the speaker shuts off. The George Mason guys worried about the same thing in 2015, and it's why this is still a prototype for small flames and the red extinguisher under your sink isn't going anywhere yet. Space might end up being where this matters first. Up there water floats off in blobs, while sound works the same with or without gravity, and acoustics researchers have already published experiments on fighting fires with sound on spacecraft. She's still in high school, and she's already working on a version that spots a fire and puts it out by itself. The gold in Indonesia also came with a special award that gets her into another international competition.
