#Choices
Peace Artist DiamanteLuz 1h

CHOOSE THE PATH TO PEACE: When choices are binary, pause, take a beat, then act rather than react and choose the path to peace. If someone cuts you off in traffic, choose to pause then flow forward in peace. Flipping them off, is engaging in their negativity and invites the possibility of escalation of a situation you could have let pass. Your engagement with negativity opens the door to the possibility of chaos and literally provides an opportunity for bad things to happen to you. Is flipping off a stranger so important that it is worth risking injury, life, or that of the loved one riding with you? #ChoseThePathToPeace #Road2Peace #RoadToPeace #ChoosePeace #Peace

Finnish political scientist (born 1969)

The author argued that deterrence relying on Moscow’s approval would not be genuine deterrence. They said Russia had demanded in December 2021 that NATO halt its enlargement, return to its 1997 lines and leave its neighbours to make their own choices, but NATO rejected those demands. The author said accepting them would have given Russia a veto over which countries in Europe could be safe. #NATO #Russia #Deterrence #RU #NATO

Sobriety is not just about individual actions. How can we create living conditions that are more conducive to health, more sober, and more just? This report proposes four angles of analysis and 16 recommendations to go beyond mere awareness. 📒 Sobriety From individual actions to collective choices ✍️ Simon Ferrière, Alice Robinet, and Sarah Tessé, High Council for Strategy and Planning (HCSP) Audio Capsules of Health Practices 🎙️🎥 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fIA0tZy3g5w Analysis of Health Practices and link to the source ℹ️➕ https://www.pratiquesensante.com/blog/pratiques-15/sobriete-des-gestes-individuels-aux-choix-collectifs-6318 📌 For health and social care prevention professionals, this report helps to understand how living conditions facilitate or hinder sober behaviors, beyond just individual will (p. 42). Its analytical framework across four environments — cognitive, economic, physical, and socio-cultural — allows for the identification of collective levers to mobilize (p. 46-47). It clarifies the links between sobriety and public health (p. 34-35) and emphasizes the importance of equitable policies that take household constraints into account (p. 37-39). Its 16 recommendations provide guidelines for public action, to be tailored to on-the-ground realities (p. 73-75). 🇬🇧: Sobriety From individual actions to collective choices - https://www.pratiquesensante.com/en/blog/practices-15/sobriete-des-gestes-individuels-aux-choix-collectifs-6318 #️⃣ #pratiquesensante #Sobriété #EcologicalTransition #EnvironmentalHealth #Lifestyle #ActiveMobility #SocialJustice #PublicPolicies #pratiquesensante #Sobriété #TransitionÉcologique #SantéEnvironnementale #ModesDeVie #MobilitésActives #JusticeSociale #PolitiquesPubliques (translated)

There was a time I would have responded to this with a furious 58-point tweet thread, but ... I'm too old and tired. Suffice it to say, it remains infuriating for the NYT to not only to make the choices it makes, but to follow those choices up with a bunch of condescending gaslighting.

Here's one of biggest problems w/NYT's terrible editorial choices on AK story, & why @patrickhealynyt.bsky.social is world's biggest chump for making them. We're effectively watching Todd Blanche do what Jeffrey Clark was prevented from doing. Healy doesn't see it. emptywheel.net/2026/10/26/t...

Chancellor pays tribute to Rachel Reeves. Yet he's said this is a "continuity government" but refuses to make the big changes we so desperately need. So what was this new Labour Government for other than a change in the people reading the "difficult choices?"

Trump's statements about the Alaska senate races this week all add up to suggestions that the Alaska voters are too stupid to make selections for the senate, so he should make the choices for them... and that includes removing Alaska's other senator, too. An accurate summary of Trump on democracy.
