Det er mer interessant å forsøke å forstå hvorfor Epstein ønsket en relasjon til Mette-Marit, enn å spekulere i hennes motiver. Som min kollega Mikael Holmqvist har påpekt, har monarker en særegen «royal touch». Det er konsekrering, ikke først og fremst flørting, som er graverende

Palantir har ingenting å gjøre i den norske staten. Denne tråden er virkelig god i å avkle galskapen. På høy tid at norske politikere spisser ører til Maja Van Der Velden www.nrk.no/norge/reager...

Very senior economist speaks out against Summers and against the discipline continuing to bestow privileges and honors on him; calls out sexism in economics.
You'd think this site should be flooded with similar threads...
"'They’re spending more money than I would even tax them,' [Mamdani] said in an interview with MSNBC last week."
This is the message. Make it clear that these billionaires aren't just worried about losing money. They're worried about losing the ability to exchange their money for power.
Det er ikke «apolitisk» å investere i selskaper som er uetiske. Det eneste «apolitiske» man kan gjøre er å ha etiske retningslinjer (uavhengig av strenghet) som man håndhever likt helt uavhengig av hvilke selskaper som bryter dem.
Interesting paper! When you ask people about the most important issue "facing the country," they often say immigration. But when you ask them about issues facing them personally, it doesn't crack the top 10.
This indicates that voters are reacting to media narratives, not their own experience.
The rich are responsible for an outsized share of carbon emissions — the top 10% account for 48%.
And the gap is growing.
Since 1990, the richest 1% have increased their share of emissions by 13%, while the poorest 50% have seen theirs fall by 3%.
Så enormt bra jobba! Kudos!

“Fascism” isn’t a slur for politics we don’t like. It’s a precise word with precise meaning. And in the face of what’s happening right now in America, it’s the most honest one we have.
I’ll lay it out as plainly as I can. 🧵

This is a fantastic project. So well deserved!

The International Association of Genocide Scholars has passed a resolution stating that Israel’s actions in Gaza meet the legal definition of genocide. Read the resolution here genocidescholars.org/wp-content/u...
In Norway we see ourselves as ethically virtuous – so why is our oil wealth enabling genocide? | Sindre Bangstad
Barely an hour ago, Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif warned us all:
“If this madness doesn’t end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people’s voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.”
Israel just killed him.
Gaza has reached IPC Phase 5, which is the worst level of food insecurity & is associated with high amounts of death & permanent disability. For people experiencing this level of malnutrition, even if it ended today, many of the consequences (eg personal outcomes like disabilities) are irreversible.
Following an exchange with @marcoalbertini.bsky.social on the @isa-rc28.bsky.social letter to the @isa-sociology.org exec committee, I’m reposting my position on requests to review for the Israel Science Foundation.
It is also very problematic to read statements saying that the ISS suspension has “real” personal & professional consequences for our colleagues, while Palestinian sociologists and academics (many murdered, suffering from starvation, with universities demolished) are ignored, not even mentioned [4]
