On the other hand, this ambassador was also shocked at how badly the Swedish employers beat their servants, so I guess it's swings and roundabouts as regards being socially progressive.

1/2 The British ambassador describes Swedish bonus families, 1824: "There was a gay dance and supper. Madame de Piper, sister of Madame Wetterstedt and a great friend of mine, was there, and also her two husbands."

Eventually they merged with Maxim, and Nordenfelt was pushed out by the even more ruthless Basil Zaharoff.

Today I learned that Maxim guns had a Swedish competitor in the Palmcrantz machine gun for a while. The Nordenfelt company which made them also sold submarines, and in the 1880s sold them to both Greece and Turkey!

Yes so this person I'm looking at was sent as minister to the Swedish community out there well after the region had passed from Swedish control.

I got excited for a moment seeing that one Swedish person was 'transported' to Delaware in the 1770s, before realising it doesn't mean the same criminal thing as it would in English.

Sometimes when I'm burned out the only thing that makes me feel better is doing historical research. Right now I'm looking at the way people from the UK participated in the building of the Göta Canal. It was drawn up by Thomas Telford, who also sent lots of workmen to the project.

I'm also annoyed by the parents who say "I got my kid's consent," as if kids know what they're consenting to. As if kids are knowledgeable about the dangers of the internet. youtube.com/shorts/V_Uw7...

By which I mean, I've done this myself. Another aspect is how few and isolated long-term anti-war campaigners usually are. This means the strong social bonds needed to have difficult conversations are usually lacking. So hard topics are, again, left unspoken, to avoid ruptures in the coalition.

Spook-ass, Christ oh boo! boo! @loukas.bsky.social · 15h

From my experience of anti-war campaigns in the UK this dynamic is mostly driven by practical coalition-building. If you can turn out lots more people to a protest by appealing to reactionary sentiments (or at least, not challenging them) then those who want to win the campaign will tend to do this.

For my ENG speaking followers Unprecedented High School blockades began in the outskirts of Paris in Créteil on the 21st of Sept. National mobilisations followed on the 29th of September, the 1st and the 6th of October. The movement is ongoing and has spread both in scope and scale. #tippingpoint

Was there some kind of particular Irish taboo against shooting foxes? "being an Irishman, I must not be guilty of shooting poor Reynard" In Stalky and Co McTurk also says that shooting foxes 'Is like murder'. It was to save the foxes for hunting with hounds?

The British ambassador has a lot in his memoirs about king Carl Johan Bernadotte. At one of their first meetings he quotes him saying, "They are a good people. They are not like the French, who only think of the present moment. Swedes think of the morrow, and they are steady."

Bloomfield's son was also a diplomat in Sweden and HE had an affair with Swedish superstar Emilie Högqvist and SHE was also the mistress of King Oscar I for about 10 years. It all makes me dizzy.

It would be so easy to convey much of the same information in a way that doesn't frame the protestors as a threat and Macron as a poor little boy with empty pockets. Simply writing that Macron says this, Macron claims this, would go some of the way. It's not rocket surgery.

Spook-ass, Christ oh boo! boo! @loukas.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

This kind of media framing is done by people who believe they are being objective. It is a kind of bias that is as invisible to them as water is to the fish who swim in it. ”This is just the normal way to write news. Why are you being weird?”

Spook-ass, Christ oh boo! boo! @loukas.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Look at the not-so-subtle editorialising here. - 'France' is braced. 'France' is something other than these French people? - The police violence, aren't we also braced for that very real threat? - Macron is 'cash-strapped.' They are already making his argument for him, by definition.
