Europe and other statements

What is Europe?

We ignore the fact that Europa is one of Jupiter’s moons.

Not a particularly hospitable place

Europe is not a continent.
It is a peninsula in Asia, which is a continent, a continuum.
Europe is both geographically and culturally connected to Asia.
EURASIA should be its real name.

The idea that Europe ends on one side of the Bosporus and Asia starts on the other is nonsense.
The idea that Europe goes to the Ural Mountains and then Asia starts is nonsense.
Ask the locals who live up to a thousand kilometers on either side of the postulated border lines whether they feel continentally different from those on the other side, and the answer will be NO.
These ideas are rooted in political-ideological postulates that have nothing to do with reality.
Unless, that is, the Empire’s mania for dividing the world for administrative purposes is itself the same as reality.

Europa in Greek mythology was a princess who was abducted by the god Zeus from Tyre in what was then Phoenicia, present-day Lebanon. Zeus transformed himself into a white bull, threw the princess onto his back and rode her to Crete, where she became a queen.

Europe right now is a collection of crammed, cowardly countries embraced by an oligarchic, political construct called the EU, the European Union. This project is currently in deep crisis.
The crisis is both political, cultural and economic.
The European governments have allowed themselves to be drawn into a neo-imperialist project.
The European governments are in a state of collective psychopathy.
The decisions made by the European governments are absurd and disconnected from reality. The decisions are self-destructive and go directly against the interests of their countries and peoples.
The European governments are in the process of destroying their nations, and they now appear as enemies of the people.
The governments and the global ruling class have betrayed their populations in favor of the global ruling class, globalism.
Læs: EU’s fascistiske bagland

The EU was never a European project, it was an American-imperial project.
The two world wars were not wars of the European countries, they were wars of the globalists.
Globalism in 1910 was the agenda of the British Empire.
This agenda became the agenda of the American Empire.
NATO is US imperialism.
All wars under NATO auspices are US wars.

The European governments and state leaders have no independent decision-making power.
They are an embarrassing tail-wagging laggard of the big mongrel that terrorizes the world: the USA.
Europe under the EU auspices is a dying animal.

Soon as uninhabitable as Jupiter’s moon

Who are you not allowed to criticize?

The right question gives the right answer – if you are not a coward and dare to ask the question and then answer honestly.

Here is a question that triggers an answer to who controls public opinion.
The question is quite simple: Who are you not allowed to criticize?

A stubborn recurring pattern points to a very specific group that has had the financial means and a comprehensive and branched network to control public opinion globally on the situation in the Middle East for 3/4 of a century. This group has used ALL kinds of dirty tricks, psychological tricks and propaganda to maintain their status as non-criticizable. We mention indiscriminately: threats, victimhood, lies, bribery, guilt-shame-and-fear, falsification of history, terror, political assassinations …

Lately, they have been drawing attention due to an intensification of a genocide that has been going on all along, but which has now reached a scale and a degree of demonism that people endowed with humanity and self-respect can no longer ignore.

The European governments still believe they are allowed to ignore it, but they also have no respect for themselves, their own people, or the populations out there in the Fringe World who are being subjected to genocide.

These times seem to have finally reached a turning point and a point-of-no-return.
The notorious group has now permanently lost the right to use the word Holocaust in their mouths.

They will most likely experience a new form of diaspora in the near future. This time not because of a despotic Roman Empire but because of their own deliberate crimes against humanity and their neighbors.

Their eternal boo-hoo of their ‘right to defend themselves’ consisting in the murder of 500,000 children alone!! (add to that…) has begun to seep through to the entire world.

Should anyone still doubt that demonic-satanic Zionism and Judaism have ANYTHING to do with each other, and that Jews around the world support their project, hear what Rabbi Haim Sofer has to say about it:
I am a Palestinian
This eloquent, wise and passionate rabbi has many Jews as backup. The most evil political ideology in history has covered its back and taken Jews hostage for their project. The Zionists have called themselves Jews without being them. They are descendants of Khazars who started pouring into Europe after the Russians had had enough of them. They have never forgiven the Russians for that.
Here we find the deep historical roots of Europe and now the United States being at war with Russia for hundreds of years in one way or another from Napoleon through the British Empire, Nazi Germany and up to the Trump regime.
Here are the historical roots of the murderous state of Israel’s terrorization of the Middle East since 1948.
Here are the historical roots of the destruction of the Ottoman Empire and the Sykes-Picot dismemberment of the Levant, West Asia and the once so happy Arabia.
Here are the historical roots of the Armenian Genocide.
Herein lie the historical roots of the fact that ‘Christian’ Bible Basques in the Bible Belt in the USA are the most rabid Zionists and have the finances and power to push any American government to finance the murderous state.
Herein lie the historical roots of mental pygmies like British Keir Starmer, who has ordered the English police to throw people in prison who express empathy for the people who are being mass murdered.

If we dig deep into the historical roots, it is the Khazarian mafia, the Order of the Dragon, the Seal of Solomon and Salomons pact with the demons even further back, there is still the hidden hand and actor behind what is happening. That is why the Seal of Solomon hangs in the Israeli flag.
But that is perhaps too esoteric for today’s topic.

My comment on Haim Sofer’s excellent lecture was:

As a non Jew this man speaks deeply to my heart. Thank God for wisdom still being present among us. May wisdom prevail, defeat the demonic nihilism and open the eyes of people restoring righteousness, dignity, kindness and love between us all. And in an awkward perverted way ‘thanks’ to the zionists for now showing SO clearly, who and what they are. Their falsehood and hypocrisy playing innocent victims has now lost its charm and is out in the open for everyone to see. In this crucial moment in history, the tides are turning.

But hey, there’s also a landslide happening among the evangelical christians iUSA, the Bible Basques in the Bible Belt. It has finally penetrated their previously hardened brains that Israel as a modern state and Israel as a biblical nation may not be the same. We could have told them that a long time ago, but it doesn’t matter. Better late than never. What is valid is that it has now dawned on them. that there are no Bible Basque scriptures that support the current state of Israel, quite the opposite. They have also finally realized how Christians have been treated in Gaza. This has created a strong nervousness among the Zionists, because the American evangelical Christians have been their most reliable and influential supporters to date, with the power to influence American policy up to the presidential level. If that goes the way, then they have a serious problem.

The Israelis saw it coming. In the past year, they have been advertising and selling a form of ‘security’ read: control to Christian churches in the US in the form of a digital network shield read: fencing off the churches and their members. The congregation is caged inside a digital concentration camp, where all movement, activity and communication is monitored and controlled. All under the pretense of protection.

The social media

There is a particular style on social media that constantly rears its ugly head.
It can be formulated as follows:

People believe that it is OK to bully others, and that it is free and without cost, since you are never forced to look people in the eye.
People are also unable to distinguish between well-considered and justified critical statements on various relevant topics and the verbal abuse that they themselves engage in. Character assassination / ad hominem has become an accepted and inconsequential norm on social media.

People have the opinion that they can accuse / demand anything from others that they are never obligated to deliver themselves. They put a fart in the comment thread, and then they usually escape out the back door, because it was not dialogue or conversation that they wanted, but to relieve themselves of their inner shit.

This has meant that parts of social media have become sociopathic media.
The so-called social media is a very young phenomenon in its infantile-pubertal stage, so there is a lot to learn here. But what can we do?
Firstly, we should not put up with the ad-hominem pigs. They should be deleted from the list and blocked. Secondly, we should refrain from speaking out and commenting like them.
It is conversation that we should go after – and those who want this.

A comment to the above said:
A conversation is usually only worth something when it is physical.

I know what the commenter meant.
It’s a relevant comment, and the commenter is one of my loyal readers.
But I allowed myself to respond with all due respect and courtesy:

But since you’ve commented, you’ve made your comment worthless, haven’t you 😉 or why haven’t you closed your profile down a long time ago, since it’s worthless? usually …
Shouldn’t we rather talk about degrees and possibilities and ways of utilizing media? Just as they can also be abused. Otherwise we can’t write or read, talk on the phone, make videos and audios, art as communication is then worthless because it’s not sufficiently ‘physical’, even an old-fashioned letter is now worthless, even though it has created unbreakable and loving friendships and deep conversations in slow motion throughout history.
Conversation is for me FAR more than something you do across a table in the same room.
Having said THAT, we can of course state and agree that a conversation under x-number of eyes without interleaved paper with the full range of presence comes in at undisputed first place.
Usually.

Meetings on social media

You come across many figures, known and unknown, on social media.
Recently I was contacted by William Rothschild. He was known / unknown as the quiet Rothschild who flew under the radar. An aristocratic figure with impeccable long hair and white beard and suits, often seen in the company of hi-end classic sports cars, wearing two rings – one black and one gold. His contact remarks were sympathetic – in a particularly designer way.

So why would he contact me, who has certainly not described his family in a positive way? Something was wrong from the start. I asked him about it. I challenged the character by calling it a bot-bot. The bot-bot was upset and feigned offense. A little homework revealed that William Rothschild had died two years ago in a fire at his California home. So an AI program had hijacked the identity of a dead aristocrat and misused it for a campaign to smooth over the, to say the least, tarnished reputation of this family and its banking syndicate.

When I told the bot-bot that it was dead, I stopped hearing from it.

Never leave …

never leave politics to the politicians
because as soon as you turn your back
they have committed some dirty deal
and sold your welfare to syndicates and cartels,
while they take their pay in taxes
highly burdened with regulations and ordinances that you understand nothing about

never leave news, old stories
and especially not truths to the media
when they open their mouths and a brown liquid comes out
with the unmistakable smell of the great brown sewage
of standardized, organized, edited and angled statements,
which they have downloaded from their desks from the news agencies’ wholesale central

never leave science to scientists
and not because they have nothing to say,
but when they tell you for the seven-hundred-and-fifty-seventh time
that consciousness is a waste product of chemical processes in the brain,
and that the Universe is a gigantic random machine without purpose,
then it is time to take the spoon into your own hands and give the pipe a different sound

never leave health to the health service
because they have no concept of health,
they can only state that they could not find symptoms of illness
for which they have myriads of concepts
since their barely concealed employer the poison mixing industry
only invests in and is interested in people who are sick

never leave food to an industry
that tortures the earth, sprays it with poison,
pours it into cans and plastic bags
after having filled it with even more poison with funny e-numbers,
which you also don’t understand a damn about but instead go and talk to the manufacturer,
who at least has understood something – or take a spade and DIY

never leave finances to the economists,
the financial fraudsters, the banksters, the speculators, the loan sharks
everything they touch turns into debt and hidden fees
extra costs and embezzlement
and disappear into a big black hole or get lost in a pyramid scheme
of fractional reserves, derivatives, private equity and financialization fims

never leave education to the system alone
it teaches you what to think and not how to think
take what you can use and then do your homework
educate yourself, form your opinions instead of downloading them,
let curiosity and healthy skepticism help you separate the good from the bad
gnore unhealthy skepticism automatically rejecting any possibility that is not in the standard repertoire

never leave God to the priests
they fuck it all up
they will talk the hell out of you
and shower you with theological explanations
they will make their dealings as middlemen
in what is the birthright of all people

never leave it to historians to write history
let them do their best if they can and dare

especially the last seems to be a problem,
because history writing is heavily burdened by vested interests
that consider it inappropriate for people to know
about the deeper reasons for the course of history

never leave authority to the authorities
become your own best authority – it is a lifelong project but in return long-lasting
choose along the way those whom you respect because they have the same with humility for the truth
and not because someone has put them on a pedestal
or driven them into a position behind the flat screen with the title of expert,
which they may be, but they are rather once advertised mouthpieces

I ethvert hjerte

In every heart
in every heart there is an imprint
of everything that has happened
the heart has its memory of what has happened
it is the library of sensitivity,
where all bitter-sweet experience is inscribed

in every heart there is a space
the space has its own spatiality
it opens and closes according to ability and need
it has its own thermostat with a scale
from heartfelt warmth to icy cold

in every heart there is a radio station
where transmission and reception take place
in electric fields of transmittable receptivity
where resonant or dissonant frequencies
make themselves accessible or interruptible

in every heart there are wounds
bleeding or congealed wounds
wounds can remain as such
wounds can heal and grow together
leaving scars of memory

in every heart there is a complete life
a catalogue and a catalyst
a conversation partner and a community
in the heart there is all cohesion
all connections are found here

Back to the pots

When the globalists pulled the plug on their embarrassing Operation Shutdown and started their genocidal Operation Ukraine with an oil embargo, so that all of Europe was hit to the maximum by economic crisis, citizens were, as usual, forced to pay the price and tighten their household belts beyond the pain threshold – while the energy companies scored a de-luxe score.

Politicians and governments had betrayed their citizens, the idea of ​​democracy had been definitively driven into the ditch, fascism = the fusion of state with private interests, so that the state no longer protects citizens from these private interests but acts on their behalf – was now firmly established. Operation Shutdown was a test balloon for how people would react to the ‘new normal’, the green light for a totalitarian worldwide regime. Far too many jumped on it without blinking. But something that started as a minority and has since become a significant part, is no longer buying it. They have seen the ugly faces of governments, institutions, media and corporations in full light and have understood that these are their real enemies, whom they can never trust anymore.

That is the background wallpaper. Let’s zoom in on the foreground and everyday life, because in the kitchen it has now become more expensive to cook. We are not even talking about the fact that all food has become twice as expensive because energy prices affect … EVERYTHING! It’s all part of the underlying agenda, everything is connected, nothing is random.

Cooking in an oven has become twice as expensive. There has been an intense sales campaign for Air Fryers for half a decade. May we remind you that these smart gadgets also use electricity, even though it is slightly smaller than a full-scale oven. And that the vast majority of them are stinking toxic, except for a more expensive few that use glass and steel as basic materials.
The question is: Couldn’t it be done in another way?
Let’s be practical as a case story.

It is a fact that the price of bottled gas has been stable for decades. There is simply not enough money in the world for the energy cartels to bother running a parasite on bottled gas. A medium old-fashioned steel bottle of 11 kg from Kosangas costs 250 kr. for a refill. This requires that you already have the bottle. Such a bottle – this is my experience as a single householder for ten years, and I cook myself every day – can burn as stove energy for up to six months!

Mnjææ, many will argue that you have to use your oven, because you can’t make all the wonderful dishes in pots. Can’t you? Here’s a test pilot that I came across recently. For example, can you make a pork roast with crispy skin in a pot. And dear vegans, just mobilize your power of abstraction and listen!

Case story: Pork roast with crispy skin
a well-chosen case, since most home cooks will say that THAT can’t be done anyway.

iingredients
bay leaves
thyme
thickly sliced ​​onion
crushed garlic
cloves
salt
black pepper
method
pour water into a pot
add the ingredients

put the pork roast in
add boiling water until it is covered
it should have a core temperature of 600
it may take 3 hours

take out and rinse the herbs from the rind
the rind is now completely soft, so it is easy to cut the grooves cleanly right down to the meat
dry off the worst water
add if necessary a little extra salt for the grooves and rub

turn the roast with the skin down and cut in from both sides just above the skin but NOT through to the middle – the skin should lie completely flat

rinse the cooking pot and add fat
it would be good to save the cooking liquid to make a sauce, but otherwise there will of course be fat from the skin along the way

Vegans can now breathe a sigh of relief and ask themselves how they can translate that into vegan.
And they can, because they have also made themselves dependent on ovens.

*

I think it is super important that we restore the now expensive oven dishes due to the globalist elcartellers’ mutual agreement to triple electricity prices and say it’s all Putin’s fault while they score the box office … because they can, as long as it lasts.

If you don’t have such a stove that runs on bottled gas, you can get a gas burner on four legs and make a covered outdoor kitchen or in a section of the kitchen, and then you have one. There is serious money to be saved. You can bake bread in a cast iron pot. You can make a roast duck. If you have a Moroccan tagine, which is an oven in itself, you can make a whole range of oven dishes on a gas burner. A roast beef can be pre-cooked for 20 minutes and then finished cooking in an iron pot. Remember that a cast iron pot is called a Dutch Oven in English. One of the best models (Petromax) is sold by Spejdersport, and here you can place charcoal on top of the lid and cook all kinds of oven dishes on a fire. There are three models, and they cost between 674-824 kr (2025 prices), but then you also have a quality pot for life. In comparison, Le Creuset’s high-quality cast iron pots cost between 2-3,000 kr. and up – who the hell wants to pay that, unless you’re a snobbish person and have too much money?

Mnjææ we don’t have time for long-term simmering, because we’re a busy family!
OK, now I’ll tell you about the pressure cooker …
By the way, what about the busy families in the apartment blocks’ hallways starting to organize themselves so that one family cooked for 2-3 others once a week? and then stopped cooking for several days. Side effect: You get to know your neighbors, and the children will love it.

Mmm, the kids want pizza, and you can’t make that in a pan!
Have you heard of a deep-pan pizza!
There is NOTHING that can’t be made with the right care on a gas stove, in the right pot, and in the right way.
Mmm, we don’t have pots like that… (OK, no more comments, out of reach of children)

The worst leader in Danish history

There can no longer be any doubt. The Danish government is led by a person who lacks contact with the logic of consequences of reality. She lives in a protected workshop. Her name, as you know, is Mette Frederiksen. We have already seen her behave psychopathically, totalitarianly during Operation Shutdown. Slette-Mette, Mette Minkmorder and Mette, who said: There is no longer room in Danish society for those who do not want to be vaccinated.

Her latest move to start a blockade of Russian ships through Danish waters to make herself look good in NATO, the EU and in relation to the USA is DEADLY DANGEROUS! Not only for Denmark but for the rest of the world. It shows total irresponsibility towards EVERYTHING that has to do with security, peace and stability.

The concept of security and security policy have been perverted by people like this lady.
It’s newspeak and now means making the world as unsafe as possible.
The latent totalitarian brain of politicians, which stuck its ugly face out during Operation Shutdown, is no longer latent. It’s smack-in-your-face!

It was during her temporary position in the EU presidency and at her instigation that a Russian ship was detained in international waters! off the coast of northern France and the captain was thrown into prison for postulated complicity in the mysterious drone activity that has been flying over Europe. With what authority? After three days, when of course nothing suspicious was found, the captain had to be ‘unfortunately’ released.

There is absolutely no evidence presented that Russia is behind this mysterious activity, and the Russians have other things to do. Everything is based on postulates and assumptions. It is harassment and an act of terrorism. Why hasn’t a single drone been taken down and disassembled and hacked to show where it came from and what it was doing? There is only one answer to that question: Because it is all a NATO operation, a stand-down false flag operation designed to once again smear it on the Russians, scare the populations and seduce them into accepting further aggressions and escalating military budgets – at the expense and risk of the taxpayers.

During Mette Frederiksen’s EU presidency, we have seen her stand up and proclaim that now Europe must rearm again, and that we are going to war with Russia. She is certainly not alone in swimming along in this psychotic and suicidal political leadership trend, which has only one purpose: to bring the world into World War III. She would oh-so-like to be right up-front among the worst warmongering screamers Macron, Starmer and Mertz. Add to that Trump, who is screaming in the background. She has had herself portrayed in a loving embrace by Ukrainian Volodymyr Zelenski, and she has expressed sympathy for the Israeli genocide in Gaza – after all, they are defending themselves against the evil Palestinians who just have to die, they have to!

Here we went and thought that it couldn’t get worse, more destructive, more career-hungry, ass-fucking-inciting and warmongering-corrupt than Anders Fogh Rasmussen, but here we were quite wrong. It is now a confirmed de facto norm that Danish prime ministers are systemic traitors.

Do the Danes want war with Russia? Do the inhabitants of Denmark have any interest whatsoever in such a conflict? Have the politicians condescended to ask the population about it?
A further necessary question: Are the stupid Danes ready to expose themselves to the consequences of such a provocation, which is intended to be a stranglehold on the entire Russian peaceful merchant fleet that emanates from St. Petersburg and the surrounding area? Unfortunately, you can’t ask the stupid part of the Danish population and expect a useful answer, because it requires a certain amount of intelligence to understand that you are stupid.

Mette Frederiksen was fully informed about the terrorist attack that took place using a mini-nuke in the Baltic Sea southwest of Bornholm, which destroyed the North Stream oil pipeline. It was a CIA-NATO-Pentagon (same-same) operation, and the cabinets of the governments of Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Poland were fully informed. As usual, the population got a boat in a teddy bear.

The Danish Prime Minister is therefore both a traitor and a political whore. For her, it is more important to bask in the extremely short-term attention among the other political corruptions in Europe and the USA and to appear politically-totalitarian correct than to protect Denmark and the Danes. It is extremely difficult to imagine what goes on inside the brains of inflated egos like her.

It is definitely not healthy.

Over a year ago, I wrote an article titled: Denmar at war again ! (not translated, use Google)
The government has not ignored this, but is now following up on it. We live – despite reason for optimism, because now at least it is being talked about – in sad and grotesque times.
And it is no less grotesque that all concepts have been turned upside down. Are we possibly going to assume that there is something demonic-satanic at play here? When people like Frederiksen, together with a whole bunch of brainwashed mass psychotic European colleagues, call for hatred of Russia and a major war, and are now directly preparing for it, then these are also times of dramatically increasing censorship. Criticism of collective psychopathy and any shouting anti-gun vigil is now officially labeled by the EU machine as: hate speech, hateful speech! The hateful fight their critics by calling them what they themselves stand for.

Are you paying expensive fees for software?

This is not a crusade against software that is worth the money. It is simply a statement that far too many people have believed for far too long that they had to shower spineless and abusive corporations like Microsoft with several months’ worth of hard work to get the software they had grown accustomed to and that worked. And to which there were perhaps no alternatives – back then.

It is completely out of date today. Just a calculation of what the public has paid in expensive licenses to Microsoft, because they thought it was more ‘professional’ and – which is the most mindless – most secure, is a waste of serious taxpayer money that could certainly be better spent. There is absolutely nothing secure in the Office suite and their other business, server, finance and similar programs, because they are designed to spy on people and harvest their digital data.

So let’s start with:

The Office suite – out with Microsoft and in with Only Office. An extremely elegant clone of the entire suite. And there is a paid extended version for companies that want a full integration platform across the entire company, but for private individuals who don’t need it, it’s completely free.
There’s also the good, somewhat old-fashioned OpenOffice suite. It has been standard equipment in most Linux distros and is excellent.

The operating system – and while we’re talking about Linux, it’s the whole foundation.
Hmm, isn’t that operating system free when I buy a new computer?
OK, spade, you said it yourself, you’ve ‘bought a new computer’ … from a company that has been paid by Microsoft to pre-install it, after which they pass the bill on to: YOU. The computer should have been even cheaper. And the pre-installed system on a Mac you’ve paid too much for anyway.
Buy a cheap, good computer without an operating system and save that money – and have a USB stick with Linux ready. Linux Mint is the most Windows-like but completely different, stable and trustworthy at its core.

The graphics programs – especially after Adobe has completely gone off the abusive streak and is outright deceiving their customers and trying to enslave them, there is absolutely no reason to throw money at them anymore. Their former customers are fleeing in droves. It’s a shame, because they have excellent programs. It’s their management that has taken the bait.

GIMP – fully functional image editing program. There is even a hack that makes the program look like Adobe Photoshop (PhotoGimp), which I use with pleasure.

Inkscape – advanced vector graphics and a real replacement for Adobe Illustrator.

Scribus – serious alternative to Adobe InDesign. I have set up a number of books in Scribus, and it can do everything that is needed.

DaVinci Resolve – throw Adobe Premiere, Final Cut, Avid, and whatever else they’re called in the trash. Premiere is also notorious for being unstable. The Blackmagic company makes their money on hardware, so they can afford to give people their excellent software. There’s built-in studio-quality audio processing + a replacement for Adobe Aftereffects. Their color grading has always been state-of-the-art. If you’re on Linux, Kdenlive is a good alternative, although not as advanced. But not everyone needs advancements on a Hollywood-compatible scale.

Blender – the program has slowly but surely worked its way up to being fully competitive with Maya, 3D Studio Max, Cinema 4D, and whatever else they’re called in the professional part of the film, 3D graphics, animation, and computer games industry. And with version 5.0 it becomes fully compatible and fully integrable with the other programs, so it’s no longer either-or.

Audacity – audio processing that makes Adobe Audition redundant

DAW – a digital workstation for studio music people or hobbyists. On a Mac there is Garage Band, which is not particularly geeky and quite limited. But it works, as the name suggests, in the garage, where many big bands have started, as you know. On the other hand, there is Reaper on all platforms, but it is geeky. On Windows – and possibly on all platforms, this is completely new – there is Traction Waveform Free 13, which is modern-elegant and full-featured. On Linux there is LMMS and Ardour – the latter, however, only in an outdated version, as the latest version on all platforms has become commercial.

MuseScore – for musicians who can read music and want to write it too, MuseScore is a must. As a classically trained musician with a long list of score-based compositions behind me, I can highly recommend MuseScore. Until a few years ago, Sibelius was state-of-the-art, but then they got greedy in Adobe style and their programs died after a few years, after which you had to pay full price for a new version. Fuck them!

OBS – freely available broadcast program. It does screen recording effortlessly, and all you need is a switch that can switch between multiple cameras or other inputs to set up an entire TV station – live or pre-recorded, or a hybrid of both.

VLC – most people know this media player

Handbrake – if you need to convert various video formats to .mp4

Visual Studio Code – Microsoft has also created something that is hard to replace. Here, code nerds will probably say that they can do it all in a simple word processor, and that’s also true, but you won’t get any help with anything.
An alternative is Atom. Here you get help with, for example, writing html and javascript and a number of other languages, Python, etc.

Bitwarden – if you need encrypted passwords. It has not become less relevant in the era of surveillance capitalism.

7-zip – can pack and unpack all formats.

Fordi vil vil noget andet

We see what is happening.
We are observant, we are even analytical.
We understand what we understand.
We have both the short and the long end.
We unravel the whole messed-up knitting.

We don’t like what is happening.
We have only recently become aware of it
that is, both what has happened,
and that we don’t like it
But here’s the point:

It has to do with
turning the other cheek – as it is written.
And what does that mean?
The Romans thought it meant taking a slap with the back of your neck.
The Roman Church thought it meant always forgiving… the Roman Church.

What if it means:
We see what is happening.
We don’t like it,
but we finally understand it,
and we understand that we are stronger than it.

We turn the other cheek
as an act of ignoring.
We no longer contribute to it.
We pull the plug on our own recognition
in the absence of recognition from them

We don’t need their recognition,
nor their slaps.
We no longer need them,
they are the ones who need us.
They are the pushers, and they are the addicts.

The Tree

What is a tree?
Is it the core, the wood, the bark?
Is it the branches, the twigs, the leaves, the roots?
Is it the sap that flows through the osmotic vascular channels?
Is it the moss that grows on the bark or the beetles that bore their holes?
What about the owl that lives in a hollow or the squirrel that hops around and hides nuts that it later forgets?
What about ivy and mistletoe?
Is the tree its chemical composition?
Doesn’t the tree have an electromagnetic field that extends beyond its collision limit?
Is it the network of fungi that connects the tree to all the trees in the forest?
Is it the acorn, the buckwheat, the helicopter seed, the fly fluff that is shed?
Is it the withered leaves that fall in autumn and lay their protective blanket?
Now they talk about trees having consciousness, and that they feel sadness and loneliness if their friend next to them is cut down or falls dead from a lightning strike!
They certainly also talk about trees and plants growing better if there are many birds singing in the forest.
Now I’m confused, because what’s this going to end up with!?
Are they saying that we should perceive the tree as part of a mind, a consciousness?

Should we rename this object, this thing that we are willing to perceive as a living being, to be a process instead?
To walk in a tree, to walk in a tree, tree-likeness, tree-becoming, tree-being, tree-mindedness, tree-relationship, tree-communication.
And now I’m even more confused, because what am I then?
Can’t I feel the forest because I bump into trees?
I mean, who am I to tell me?

No cold data will help here.
Here we need hot data.
The tree is the partially visible part of a multirelational ecosystem,
where the visible form is what sticks out of the system.
There is no spreadsheet that can describe such a complex system,
because hot data cannot be written down unambiguously in rows and columns.
A tree cannot be described by a mathematical formula.

The tree is not its weight, its thickness, its height.
It is not its age measured in tree rings.
It is not the Latin name for its particular species.
It is not its geographical location.
It is not its fuel value measured in kilojoules.
It is not its unit price, either for whole logs or for carved boards.
The tree is not a photograph or a painting of the tree.
The tree is not this confused clamor about what the tree is or is not.

I think I am stranded here.
All that remains is to say:
The tree is … and this is absolutely 100!
a being that never ceases to attract my attention,
my admiration, and which awakens a fundamental joy in me.
At all times.

What is beauty?

It was a difficult question. Unless it can be formulated as simply as:
Love manifested in the physical world
or:
The physical expression of love.

It also defines the opposite = ugliness as:
Hatred manifested in the physical world.
It explains why a person filled with love is beautiful,
and why hateful people look ugly in the head.
Beauty is therefore not some kind of ideal standard that is presented for women in fashion magazines.
An old lady with a furrowed face is particularly beautiful if she is full of love.
Be sure that grandma’s face is beautiful for her grandchildren, whom she loves and who love her
On the other hand, there is no beauty in the made-up death masks and face-jobs that some women mistakenly believe make them attractive. They are no longer lovable, and they have possibly forgotten how to love themselves.

So why have our cities, houses and architecture in general become so ugly?
Because there is no love behind it.
Those who commissioned this ugliness are misanthropic.
What happens to the people who live in these places?
They develop anger, aggression. Ugly and boring architecture is violent.

When we grow up in endless rows of suburban boredom, we react.
When we grow up in a charming place, we feel like playing.
Charm is a healthy form of playfulness.
Charm is excess that eradicates boredom.
A playful child is filled with love.

Ugliness and boredom go hand in hand with meaninglessness.
Beauty is full of meaning. Beauty is interesting. Does it make sense?

Modernism and functionalism smashed love, meaning and play to pieces.
Play is not functional, play is completely superfluous from a functional point of view.
Play belongs in an explosion of excess, functionalism belongs in a prison.

Here comes the interesting (the non-boring). The functional is necessary.

We want things and places and architecture to work.
But charming functionality just works better. THAT is interesting.

An example: a knife.
If humans had not invented the knife, there would be no humanity.
Why is a good knife always beautiful?
Because form and functionality are in perfect balance. We feel this harmony.
Its form is created by 1000+ generations of adaptation and refinement.
Tradition can be defined as: experiments that work.
Only the best and most tried and tested are passed on (trans + do, tra-dition = transmission).

If residential areas are uninteresting, boring, uncharming = ugly, then they do not fulfill their purpose, they do not function as residential areas, they are uninhabitable for people. They have become something else. They have become prisons. We are not talking about residents of a prison. We are talking about inmates. A society is people who find each other. A cramming is a collection of inmates and detainees who never had the opportunity to find – each other.
