Not satire!

Of course two autocratic fascist leaders want to abolish a court that would see one—potential both—of them tried for crimes against humanity if it could only arrest them. And of course Netanyahu is claiming the ICC’s “antisemitic”, even though its establishment evolved partially from the Nuremberg trials that prosecuted Nazis for persecuting Jews 🙄

Trump imposes sanctions on ICC, accusing it of targeting US and Israel

US president has been critical of court since it issued war crimes arrest warrant for Netanyahu, who welcomes executive order targeting ‘lawfare’ against Israel

I hope for a day when the Sámi Parliament (Sámediggi, Sämitigge, Sääʹmteʹǧǧ, Saamelaiskäräjät) is free from entryism by people with contested indigenous heritage with vested interests.

Buori sámi álbmotbeaivvi buohkaide!
Pyeri säämi aalmugpeivi puohháid!
Šiõǥǥ saaʹmi meersažpeiʹvv pukid!
Hyvää saamelaisten kansallispäivää!
Happy Sámi National Day!

I hope for a day when Sápmi—the indigenous Sámi people’s land—is free from neocolonial natural resource exploitation.

I hope for a day when the Sámi receive an apology and reparations from the Finnish government for the ethnic cleansing they and their ancestors have faced, including forced displacement, forced assimilation, attacks on the languages and cultures, and desecration of cultural landscapes.

Well done, PAM! I wish Akava would stand up for its members and organise a proper strike for its unions’ members.

Musk has driven the transformation of X into a disinformation, hate speech and harassment platform which is no longer a legitimate space for scientific or respectful dialogue.

Thanks to the 137 staff who signed the letter to management!

I’m happy that my workplace Natural Resources Institute Finland (Luonnonvarakeskus) has stopped using X and will start posting more actively to its Bluesky account @luke.fi, as well as continuing to focus on LinkedIn. Please follow us!
