Currently reading Inventing Reality: The Politics of News Media by Parenti :). A great book, but also somewhat depressing. Even though it's quite old, it definitely still holds up. It kind of seems like nothing has changed.

Participated in a pro-Palestine protest today in Copenhagen, Denmark. It was wonderful :).
2.500 people had signed up for the event. Some said 10.000 people showed up, others are saying 15.000. It was absolutely packed with people of all kinds and ages. I went with my 60+ year old dad.
I don't have enough pictures to make justice of the scale, but we went from a part of Copenhagen named "Nørrebro", and walked to the Danish parliament.

A birds-eye view of how many showed up at the parliament: https://odysee.com/@kovpak:c/394458251600888:1
The first few seasons are great. The 4th season is a bit of a mess. First it was cancelled, and later renewed, if I remember correctly.
+1 for Sorry to Bother You. Just watched it today, fantastic watch. Didn't expect anything else from good ol' Boots Riley :)
I use the NewPipe fork with Sponsorblock as an optional feature. You can get NewPipe on F-Droid here and the fork with Sponsorblock here.
As a rule of thumb, I always check their respective GitHub pages for links, I don't really trust the Google Store. There are too many spam duplicates of various apps, especially FOSS ones.

Yes, but also no. You have to create the entire infrastructure yourself in W&R:SR. In Tropico you just "paint" roads and cars appear by themselves and don't need fuel, and so on. Stolen from a Steam review: "The game focuses on its realistic economic simulation. The player must manage resources such as coal, iron, and oil to power factories and produce goods. Despite a complete planned economy, a player must still account for the fluctuating prices of the global export market, so the player must carefully balance and diversify exports and imports to ensure economic security. Additionally, the game features a detailed transportation system, including trains, trucks, and ships, which must be managed to transport goods efficiently. While the transport system can initially be a little obtuse, once you learn how to filter the inputs a station is allowed to have you'll figure it out. Having experience in games with similar transport systems like OpenTTD or IG2 is a great help."

Государственное страхование Р.С.Ф.С.Р. Страховка - верная помощь в беде.
Text on poster:
Mandatory insurance only provides first aid. It is possible to provide the whole farm with voluntary insurance. Don't forget about voluntary insurance. If you spare a penny, you'll pay with a penny.
Kind of feels like a based version of a modern insurance company commercial

Hey, Danish guy here. It look like it's advertisement placed on scaffolding. Apparently the ad companies don't care about the laws/rules on advertisements on scaffolding, so the ad companies abuse that Copenhagen politicians haven't enforced the rules regarding those ads.
In Copenhagen, the major has very recently commented on it, calling it "The Wild West" (link to article, use DeepL or other tools for translations).
So usually it's not advertisements placed on a building itself, but on the scaffolds they use, when they're renovating buildings, or doing roof-work/repairs, etc.
