Jukka Lepikkö wrote that the traffic safety authorities of nine European countries had approved Tesla's FSD. According to him, Traficom had said in June that it could return to the approval of FSD in Finland after the summer holidays. Lepikkö hinted that there apparently was no urgency in improving traffic safety. #liikenneturvallisuus #Tesla #FSD (translated)

Ulle Kastelholm said he has been voting for the National Coalition Party for about 35 years and described himself as a net taxpayer with a demanding academic degree. He stated that he lives in a prestigious neighborhood and owns two good cars, a summer cottage, and an apartment abroad. Kastelholm mentioned that he now votes for the Finns Party, as he believes there are too many people like Pia Kauma in the National Coalition Party. #politiikka #äänestäminen #Suomi (translated)

Petra Nyqvist stated that she had been asked to assess the veracity of Anter Yasa's writing, but according to her, Yasa had prevented her from doing so. Nyqvist described the writing as aggressive and false, noting that, in her opinion, the police do not declare anyone unaccountable. Nyqvist said that the police had called her one summer and said that Yasa was trying to make a criminal complaint against her, but there was no evidence of a crime. According to Nyqvist, the police intended to ask Yasa for more information, but the matter did not progress. She suspected that Yasa had attempted to make another criminal complaint against her but said that she had never received information about it—or that the accusation was fabricated. Nyqvist denied receiving money from mosques and stated that she was doing expert work related to her education in nature and the environment. She said that Yasa's writings could lead to a criminal case, but doubted that Yasa would be able to pay damages or fines. #valehtelu #totuus #poliisi (translated)

Jukka-Pekka Lätti wrote about the police investigating the violent actions that took place in Haukilahden, Espoo, during the summer of 2026. He criticized the fact that the suspect's image with identifying features was only published in October, and appealed to Mari Rantanen to ensure that such a procedure could not continue. Lätti also requested that the publication be shared. https://t.co/F3N9HIkoTq https://t.co/yY7WVit91n #Espoo #väkivalta #poliisi (translated)

Luka Svetina wrote that the turnaround in the referendum on the parliamentary inquiry indicates that the propaganda on March 8 about the alleged "political police" scared the oldest voters, aged 65 and older, which polls seem to suggest. He assessed that the opponent does not choose means, so the coalition should prepare for a similar campaign regarding the intervention law. According to him, they would communicate to voters that retirees would be left without pensions, salaries in the public sector would be reduced, while Blaž Brodnjak would have more money. He wished the coalition good luck. #referendum #politika #upokojenci (translated)

Riku-Mikael Leppänen wondered about the decline in support for the National Coalition Party and wrote that he considers the reason for it a complete mystery. According to him, Orpo could invite more female influencers to Kesäranta. https://t.co/7ALTrEnzms #Kokoomus #politiikka #vaalit (translated)

Juho Hirvelä warned in his writing that the western Finn cattle, which belongs to Finland's native breeds, was on the brink of extinction according to him. He stated that the same concern applied to the eastern Finn cattle, or Kyttö, and the Lapland cow. According to Hirvelä, the Ketomo family business from Northern Finland reported that it uses milk from all three native breeds in its ice creams. The company had also raised dark bees of the north during the summer and intended to showcase native breeds at the I Love Me fair. Hirvelä thanked Ketomo for its work for native cattle and hoped for more similar businesses. He encouraged people to check out the company’s ice creams in grocery store freezers and mentioned that the fair would be held at the Helsinki Messukeskus from October 16 to 18, 2026. Hirvelä estimated that saving the native cattle required getting the animals back into production. According to him, they would not be saved in Korkeasaari Zoo or at the mercy of wild wolves. He wrote that the native cattle had helped the Finnish people during years of famine and that now it was time for people to help them. #alkuperäiskarjat #suomi #kestäväkehitys (translated)

Otto Meri mentioned that he had visited the residents of Heka's senior housing the day before. According to him, the residents had described the situation in the housing company as a disorder that had continued for over a year and suspected that drugs were being traded from one apartment. Meri wrote that the residents claimed that unknown people had been moving in the stairwells, several stolen bicycles had appeared in the basement, and children's strollers had been left in the yard in September. Last week, according to him, attempts had been made to break into several stairwells and the attic with a crowbar. Residents had also reported that substance users had searched the yard for "Tuomas," that unknown individuals had slept in the courtyard grass during the summer, and that people had visited Tuomas's apartment irregularly. Meri said that the residents were scared. According to him, a retiree who lived in the same stairwell as Tuomas had stated that he did not always dare to leave his apartment. The residents had reported being in contact with Heka, but according to Meri, no action had been taken. He described the situation as unsustainable and said that one person should not be allowed to terrorize the entire housing company. #asuminen #turvallisuus #yhteisö (translated)

Maria Rautanen wrote that a law was being prepared in Finland that would require the installation of solar panels on existing public buildings larger than 250 m² starting in 2031. She linked the preparation to the EU's Energy Efficiency Directive for Buildings and asked whether the effects of the directive were adequately assessed in Finnish conditions. Rautanen argued that Finland could not be compared to sunny Mediterranean countries that used a lot of fossil fuels. She noted that Finland's electricity consumption emission factor was only 26 g CO₂/kWh in 2025 and pointed out that solar panels produced energy mostly in the summer when the electricity system was already low-emission and energy consumption was lower. She wrote that the solar panel production chain was heavily concentrated in China and that a lot of coal-generated electricity was still used in their manufacturing. According to Rautanen, 78,000 MW of new coal power was commissioned in China in 2025. Rautanen asked who would pay for the new investments while municipalities were balancing their budgets and welfare areas were looking for savings. She demanded a calculation of the costs and financing of the investments, as well as how much the solar panels made in China would reduce Finland's CO₂ emissions over their entire lifespan. She also questioned whether the panels would offset their carbon footprint during production and assessed that the rationality of the directive in Finland could not be determined without a calculation based on Finnish conditions. https://t.co/ba6sqYwZ2l #Aurinkoenergia #Energiatehokkuus #Suomi (translated)

The star player of the Little Owls, Otto Ruoppi, is injured, which affects Finland's chances of securing a direct spot in next summer's European Championship, as the team must win against Kosovo and hope for Spain to lose to Romania. #Pikkuhuuhkajat #EMkarsinnat #jalkapallo (translated)

This autumn's mosquito phenomenon, in which especially summer mosquitoes have been active exceptionally late, is causing wonder among researchers and is probably due to favorable weather conditions that have allowed their development into larvae. #hyttyset #luonto #syksy (translated)

Henri Vanhanen wrote that he wanted to correct the interpretations of an article by Helsingin Sanomat that dealt with nuclear weapons and said he remained uncertain about what the article ultimately claimed regarding Finland's security. According to him, Finland did not join the NATO nuclear deterrent with little discussion or unnoticed, but rather joined an alliance whose deterrence and defense had been based on nuclear weapons for decades. He described the strategic nuclear forces of the United States as a key basis for NATO's nuclear deterrent. Vanhanen considered that the bombing of Nagasaki was not an example of the current type of nuclear deterrent because Japan did not have a nuclear weapon nor the ability to respond to a U.S. strike. In his view, Nagasaki demonstrated the destructiveness of nuclear weapons and the human risks of their use, whereas the current deterrent was based on the assumption that an attacker had to consider the possibility of retaliation and uncontrolled escalation. Vanhanen assessed that Trump had increased uncertainty regarding the United States' commitment to the conventional defense of Europe and believed Europe would have to bear more responsibility for it. However, he distinguished this from the claim that the U.S. nuclear deterrent had weakened. According to him, the U.S. ability to use nuclear weapons had not diminished, NATO was not dismantling its nuclear plans or arrangements, systems were being modernized, and F-35 aircraft were being introduced into NATO's nuclear missions. Vanhanen stated that the NATO Nuclear Planning Group had confirmed in June that strategic nuclear forces, particularly U.S. forces, remained the ultimate guarantee of the allies' security and had decided to continue strengthening and modernizing the nuclear deterrent. Vanhanen considered it a central uncertainty whether Moscow would believe that the U.S. president would be willing to use nuclear weapons to defend an ally in an extreme situation. He reminded that the question of the U.S. willingness to endanger its own cities for the sake of Europe had been a concern throughout the history of the extended nuclear deterrent and there had been no complete certainty during the Cold War or at the present time. According to him, Finland's option was not a nuclear deterrent or a nuclear-free security environment, as Russia would have its nuclear weapons in any case. Vanhanen wrote that the crucial issue for the deterrent was that the Russian leadership could not be certain that the United States would defend Finland. https://t.co/3C8aAkuMwj #ydinaseet #Nato #Suomi (translated)

Ehdottoman vankeuden vaatiminen vihapuheesta voi tuntua työkyvyttömyyseläkkeellä notkuvan suvakin mielestä hienolta ajatukselta, mutta sen toteuttaminen olisi puhdasta järjettömyyttä. Yksittäisten kommentien rangaistavuutta on tähänkin mennessä arvioitu täysin tapauskohtaisesti, ja tutkinnat käynnistyvät usein vuosikausia vanhoista viesteistä, joiden olemassaoloa ei muista edes kirjoittaja itse, eikä näistä viesteistä yleensä löydy edes yksilöityä uhria. Yksittäinen teksti tulkitaan käräjäoikeuden toimesta joko rikolliseksi tai sallituksi, riippuen ihan tähtien asennosta ja kahvipannussa olevien purujen määrästä. Kesäkuinen oikeudenkäyntini on tästä tulkinnanvaraisuudesta hyvä esimerkki. Usean vuoden kakku ikivanhasta viestistä, jonka laittomuus arvioidaan muutenkin vasta oikeussalissa, olisi puhdasta neuvostotason vittuilua yksittäistä kansalaista ja tämän perhettä kohtaan. Se myös saisi aikaiseksi tilanteen, jossa maahanmuuttajarikollisuuden sanallisesta kritisoimisesta seuraisi kovempi rangaistus kuin itse maahanmuttajan tekemästä rikoksesta. #vihapuhe #oikeus #sanavapaus

Vaikka elämäntarinani on aivan erilainen kuin Päivin ja kasvoin maailmassa kieroon kuin käppyrämänty, niin tänä päivänä sama Henki vetää @PaiviRasanen kanssa kohti totuutta. Ja se on hyvä se 💪👍😁 Vahvuuteni on juuri kokemusasiantuntijuudessa: Olen elänyt vasemmistolaisessa Pro Palestiina maailmassa (kyllä 😂), uskonut Priden edustavan ihmisarvoa (🫠), ajatellut että Obama tai Stubb ovat osaavia ihan vain siksi, että he ottavat selfieitä ja ovat nuorekkaita sekä uskonut intersektionaalisen feminismin olevan voimaannuttavaa 🤪. Joskus menneisyyteni nolottaa, mutta juuri siksi olen niin varma, että vain Raamatun sana voi muuttaa jääräpäisiä syntisiä. Muutos kohdallani on kuin toukasta perhoseksi, DNAta myöden. ”Hyvinkäältä nousi viime eduskuntavaaleista Arkadianmäelle nuori Onni Rostila (ps.) suositun Youtube-kanavansa siivittämänä. Rostila on ehdolla edelleen, mutta kaupungista on nyt tarjolla eduskuntaan myös toinen oikeistolainen somesuosikki, Katriina Reponen (kd.).Reponen yllätti keväällä loikkaamalla perussuomalaisista kristillisdemokraatteihin. Hän kertoo odottaneensa perussuomalaisista pyyntöä lähteä ehdolle. Kun sitä ei kuulunut, Reponen vaihtoi puoluetta. Reponen, 47, on taloustieteen lehtori, mutta sosiaalisessa mediassa hän on profiloitunut erityisesti Israelin puolestapuhujana. Facebookissa hänellä on yli 9 400 seuraajaa ja X:ssäkin 8 600. Reponen oli myös alkukesästä Roni Arvosen suositun Kuuntelija-podcastin vieraana. Youtubessa jaksolla on jo lähes 100 000 katsomiskertaa.Uhkaako tässä käydä niin, että perussuomalaiset joutuvat katumaan, etteivät pyytäneet Reposta ehdokkaaksi? – Niin, en itse lähtisi uhriutumaan, että kun persut eivät minua valinneet, niin minulla ei ollut muita vaihtoehtoja kuin hypätä kristillisdemokraatteihin. Olen paljon rukoillut ja kannan loikasta itse vastuun, Reponen toteaa. Nyt hän arvelee löytäneensä kodin kristillisdemokraateista, vaikka toteaa puolueen sisältä löytyvän hänen makuunsa liian vapaamielistä suhtautumista aborttiin ja Israel–Palestiina-kysymykseen. Reponen sanoo olevansa kristillisdemokraattien sisällä hyvin lähellä naapurikaupunki Riihimäen Päivi Räsäsen linjoja: ehdoton ei uudistetulle aborttilaille ja äärimmiäsen skeptinen suhtautuminen palestiinalaisten oman valtion mahdollisuuteen. Reponen toteaa myös olevansa rokotekriittinen. Talouspoliittinen linja hänellä on sen sijaan puolueen yleislinjaa oikeistolaisempi. -Vielä kesällä kristillisdemokraateilla oli liian sosiaalinen ote talouspolitiikkaan. Onneksi tekemäni muutosehdotukset näkyvät jo nyt puolueen linjassa. Valtion pitää olla ihmistä varten, eikä ihmisen valtiota varten. Kristillisdemokraateilla on nyt Uudeltamaalta yksi kansanedustaja, ministeri Mika Poutala. Kesällä ex-meppi ja ex-kokoomuslainen Eija-Riitta Korhola-Dunderfelt ilmoitti lähtevänsä ehdolle Uudenmaan vaalipiiristä, vaikka asuukin Helsingissä. Katriina Reponen uskoo uudella puolueellaan olevan hyvät mahdollisuudet jopa kasvattaa paikkamääräänsä Uudellamaalla.– Poutala on ministeri ja Korhola on myös hyvin vahva ehdokas. Ja sitten olen minä uutena haastajana. Näen, että meistä kolmesta voisi kaksi mennä läpi.” https://t.co/mAqSoBCtfu #Politiikka #Kristillisdemokraatit #Muutos
