Nerd (software, history, gizmos, culture, science). Still not sure which to believe, Bohmian or Copenhagen interpretation. I like my humour dry and dark. Gardening and arts are my meditation. Like to dress in M05 camo.

My brother's an economist and it's truly embarrassing to be in a group with him when he introduces himself as a scientist. There are aspects of science in economics but it's pretty weak stuff, almost homeopathic.

This cartoon, published widely in Chinese state media at the time of Trump's visit to Beijing, summarizes Xi's attitude towards Trump. The legend reads "No rush, I know exactly when and how much to do"—reflecting the view that Trump serves Chinese state interests and can be brought down at any time.

Saksan äärioikeistolainen puolue kiittää Elon Muskia tuesta ja yhteistyöstä. Samaan aikaan Suomen poliittinen eliitti ja median johto viestivät ja päivystävät Muskin täysin kontrolloimalla alustalla. Tietämättömyyden piikkiin tätä ei voi enää laittaa. Tässä vaiheessa tämä on jo tietoinen valinta.

Today’s poem is called ‘Bags’.
Bags
 
you have bags
of bags
 
collecting bags
must be your bag
 
because you have bags
with nothing in them
except bags,
inside of which are other bags,
full of bags
 
you have enough bags for life
for a hundred lifetimes –
if there was a prize for the total number of tote bags
you would totes have it
in the bag
 
don’t know why you need so many bags
when all you ever put in them
are other bags

Ever wondered what would happen if you took ~80 Finnish WW2 special forces soldiers, trained them for months for a mission that is postponed again and again, and then they find a ready supply of vodka? Well, I got you covered: behold the "battle of Podporozhe." 1/
