My home is just 21°C at the moment. And I find it rather cold. I'm still remodeling it, so don't have a lot of heaters around. Usually I prefer to have it around ~24–25°C. How warm is your place?

https://focusingonwildlife.com/news/norway-now-kills-more-whales-than-japan-and-iceland-combined/ Whale sushi is nice, but if you like meat, you really should try whale steak at some point. It's absolutely lovely! :) (Though make sure you cook it right, so it doesn't taste like fish oil...)...

We got lucky: only one person lightly wounded. I have some doubts that this will make the news outside Norway, since while it's headline news here, it's not blown out of proportions, considering it ended up being far from as terrible as it could have been. The exact event aren't clear yet, but...

https://www.politico.com/story/2019/08/07/white-house-tech-censorship-1639051 The article looks a lot at what the White House can do, and on what Republicans in FCC and FTC thinks should be possible to do (answer: not much). Knowing Trump however, and the company he keeps, this could turn...

The story so far: Is Britain about to leave the EU? Snap UK General Election Brexit Thread III - How to instantly polarise your country without even trying Brexit Thread IV - They're laughing with us, not at us Brexit Thread V - The Final Countdown?!? Brexit Thread VI - The Knockout Phase ?!?

tl;dr: 205 years ago Denmark peaced out after being allied with Napoleon, and gave Norway to Sweden in January, 1814. We, however, quickly put together a congress and made our very own constitution, ratified on the 17th of May, 1814! We even elected some Danish prince as our king and declared...

Apparently a work accident during restoration... :( https://www.france24.com/en/20190415-fire-paris-france-notre-dame-cathedral

I came across a twitter thread and an interesting, and sad, post about Fox News' brainwashing has effected the family relationships of lots of people. Thought it was interesting enough to share here: https://luke.substack.com/p/i-hate-what-theyve-done-to-almost-39f And I'm happy this blight...

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/01/world/canada/trudeau-scandal-snc-lavalin.html Fill me in OT. Why haven't I heard of this before, and what's going to happen now?

Coming next week! https://edition.cnn.com/2019/02/20/politics/special-counsel-conclusion-announcement/index.html March is gonna be a politically very interesting month! :D

So, let me get this straight: - Soros got a bomb on Monday? - The Clintons got a bomb today? - The Obamas got a bomb today? - Eric Holder was to get a bomb today? - John Brennan got a bomb addressed to him at the CNN's Time Warner building? - Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz got a bomb? -...

Today, for several hours, the entire island of Sjælland, where Copenhagen is located, was on lock-down. There's 2.3 million people living on that island! All bridges and ferries were stopped as police was (is?) looking for a Swedish-registered car with three people in it. It's a black Volvo V90...

You asked before. Now we will all find out. Look how happy Pai is. This can only be a good thing. :)

I read an interesting article on how the modern stories with a good side vs an evil side are just that, modern. That until the 19th Century and nationalism, the myths and stories that were told didn't have any moralistic opponents in them. And that this good vs evil trope is probably harmful...

Is Britain about to leave the EU? The answer, as we all know by now, is yes. The United Kingdom is leaving the European Union. May signed the letter triggering A50 yesterday, and at 13:30 CEST today (12:30 BST) it will be delivered to Donald Tusk. I think this is for the best - for the EU...

Instead of derailing the French election thread too much, I figured I'd just spin this of to its own thread... It seems that you pick up jokes where I seek to be serious, so if you don't mind, I would appreciate if you could explain to me what the joke is. Do you think other states can rely...

Is something I would have liked to read. But I haven't seen anything like it. Has the media simply not reported on it? Anyway, the council is apparently angry, and here's the reason: http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-36900310 In all fairness, a quick look on twitter didn't reveal much outrage, so...

I don't think anyone has posted about this, and if there's anyone here like me, they'd probably want to hear a bit about the aftermath of this event. These are all charges though, not convictions yet. 25 people were charged in total. All of them are accused of using “force, intimidation...
