A woman having unapologetic fun in freedom and security remains a highly provocative act to bullies and bigots. So it's no wonder that the Finnish PM dancing at a party has driven pro-Russian tankies and pro-Trump trolls absolutely bonkers. Everything they hate in one photograph

Racism & BYU/LDS Faith .. this video is just the tip of the iceberg. In my experience Iโ€™ve come to realize the complexities that come with solving this issue. 3 parts .. hope we can self reflect & tune out the extremes and find ways to progress more efficiently and effectively

We spend 50% more hours in school than Finland. They get 15 mins of recess every hour. They have NO standardized tests except for PISA in HS and they outperform us every time. When we canโ€™t give students more recess, physical activity & Arts then we donโ€™t understand education.

Itโ€™s important to note that systems like this, like long parental leaves, also create fantastic career opportunities for those who fill in while the employee is away. These long-term temp positions offer so much more than the usual coffee-making internships. #welfarestate

I'll write this in English. The US is not doing a "favour" nor advancing an "agenda" in Ukraine. It is abiding by the Budapest Memorandum of 1994. Ukraine gave up one of the strongest militaries in the world based of a promise to be guarded by RF, USA and UK. 1/2

Ted Carpenter from the Cato Institute think tank described today Ukraine as a "terribly corrupt" and autocratic government. "So this is not a war between democracy and authoritarianism because neither belligerent in this war is a democracy" : said Ted.ย This is why he is wrong 1/
