Here's the 100 largest coops in the US: https://impact.ncb.coop/hubfs/Co-op%20100%202023%20Report%20-%20ADA.pdf

Combined more than 300 billion USD revenue. Not peanuts.

Here's a few networked coops with each more than 2 million members, from the nordics:

Cooperatives do work wonders, unless they are purposefully destroyed with adversive regulation.

Also, employee stock options rock.

Actually - co-ops work wonderfully. Largest grocery chain in Finland (S-chain). Everywhere Scandinavia (COOP). UK. Rural America. Israel. Decades of success.

And many if not most software startups deal out shares. Great way to bind the blue collar workers.

It's the venture capital and just sometimes the grabby founders that cash out...

Russia has been seeding discontent in Europe for decades. (1)

Russia has invaded Checnya, Abkhazia, Southern Ossetia, Transnistria, Krim, Ukraine (2). Baltics stand next in line, in a few years, if West fails.

It's literally a sick war game for Putin's Kreml.

This far the inflation has been driven by rising corporate profits and energy costs. Now that the stagnant wages start to react, it's time to...

Nuorilta miehiltä kerätään mehukkailla keskusteluilla tietoja, jotka säilötään ilmeisesti Moskovassa. Petteri Järvinen arvioi, että tietoja voi päätyä Venäjän tiedustelupalveluille.

Tekoälyn haitat on jo täällä.

It's published in Nature or Science. Which means it's better than the thruth (which we don't have access to!), it's high quality science.

Not a good man. They think he's the divine necessary man who will bash abortion, women, the blacks, gays, the heretics, mutants and aliens and porn stars, not necessarily in that order. As the good word verdicts. A great christian hero.

(American white evangelicalism and christian nationalism is an abomination on the face of the earth.)

They already do home-schooling. A lot.

Here's one fine example: https://biblicalfembootcamp.com/2020/08/05/christians-should-homeschool/

And even the rare case of transition regret, it's usually because 1. lack of peer group, 2. social condemnation and 3. your family now hates you.

Not because of the procedure, but because of the assholes around you. (This by one older Swedish study on the subject).

It's a literal miracle cure. Any sane doctor would jump for it.

Polyurethane (PU) will gather humidity by hydrolysis in storage if not used regularly, especially if stored airtight, and will crumble in half an year.

It's used as sole material in sportswear, Scandinavian outdoor and military gear, and several Indian shoe manufacturers. Especially the military boots are funny, because they literally crumble off the shelf.

Also used as vegan / synthetic leather and has to be dried properly if wet.

Take good care of your gear.

Lähden junalla reissuun, jännittää. Loma puolessa ja on tullut itseä tuotua maailmaan. Hyvää viikonloppua!
