The US ambassador told the EU to back off its own cloud and semiconductor laws or risk the trade deal. Calling it “protectionism” doesn’t make it less of a shakedown. That’s not diplomacy. This is blackmail! When will the European Commission finally stand up for Europe?

Dog tax

Two dogs are playing a rope-tugging game with what used to be, in its better days, alpaca toy. The blue merle collie on the floor is pulling ferociously at the butt-end of the toy while on the other end of the extremely-stretched-out-alpaca-neck a red & white icelandic sheepdog leisurely lies on the couch as she bites down on the head effortlessly keeping the collie from taking the spoils

💥Hungary's newly elected PM Péter Magyar, in his first speech, apologizes to victims of the Orbán government's smear campaigns and harassment, including NGOs and journalists. For 16 years, dozens if not hundreds of us had to endure our newsrooms being taken over, surveillance and pressure campaigns.

Dog tax Loooooong legs

Wide-angle photo of two dogs. The blue merle collie lies ok the floor with one front leg folded under and one extended towards the camera. She is very fluffy and mildly suhspihshus. The red & white Icelandic Sheepdog besides her has her ears flapped to the side in a flattened V-shape, she is really not into photo ops. She also have Very Long Front Legs. They are in a small house with large glass windows around them where abundant sun shines in from the clear sky, there is an office desk also behind them in the corner

Tens of thousands chant “Russians, go home!” at tonight’s anti-Orbán concert in Budapest’s Heroes’ Square ahead of Sunday’s Hungarian election.

Hastily taken close-up of a blue merle collie on a bed, she is being smothered by a little human. Her blep is showing as she struggles with the hug attack

Eliot Higgins @eliothiggins.bsky.social · 4mo ago

This Lippmann-Dewey debate still frames democratic thinking today. Do we fix democracy by improving the expert infrastructure that informs the public? Or by improving the public's own capacity to participate? The answer, I'd argue, is both.

Dog Tax: hello from Blacksky, it's been a while! 🖤

Two fluffy dogs
Sitting on a rock
K-I-S-S-I…
erm, eh, sorry I got carried away.
It's a collie and an icelandic sheepdog sitting on a large boulder under what is rather more blue than black clear sky

Dog tax. Recent feels:

A blue merle collie, she lies on the woodboard floor on her side, all four legs stretched out but relaxed. Her huge white collar fur covers up all of her face, just the tip of her ears and nose is poking out.

Dog Tax: a throwback to Tallinn Pride from a couple weeks ago 🏳️‍🌈

Wide-angle photo of Tallinn's old town, with cobblestone roads, old buildings overrun by climbing plants. People are walking on the cobblestone paths carrying flags and draped in rainbow colors. Two dogs, a blue merle collie and a smaller icelandic sheepdog are up ahead on the sidewalk, dragging their leashes on the ground, turning back looking at the straggler photographer

The news cycle can be a little bit depressing lately

In a muddy mood

Two dogs in the trunk ot a SUV with the backdoor opened. The smaller icelandic sheepdog is looking to the right past the photographer, further in the back the blue merle collie is peeking out to the left, most of what's visible of her is covered by partly dried chocolate-brown mud

Opened bsky so paying the tax...

Fluffy blue merle collie walking through the winter landscape and knee-deep snow in an evergreen forest. Her nose is covered in flakes of deposited snow, with her pink tongue poking out in a subtle blep

Extremely rare, they hate posing for photos!

An icelandic sheepdog and a blue merle collie smiles to the camera happily. It's a cool, crisp day in the Estonian winter with a forest in the backdrop

Guess this is just how it's going to be, every once in a while log in, accept some follow requests, post some pup pictures? Well then...

First person close-up of two pups sitting on the couch very close to the photographer, the size of the smaller icelandic sheepdog matches the size of the collie sitting further away. The icie is leaning close with pleading in her eyes (you can bet there is food involved on the other side of the camera). Her nose is like a big juicy plum, gently twitching to the appetizing smells emanating from the treats in the photographer's possession

All the old tech buddies following in the wake of the latest (and much welcome) hellsite-exodus, I hope you are prepared for minimal tech nonsense but lots of floofy puppers (and maybe shitposts) on this profile 🙃

Lumi the blue merle collie lies on a green couch. The front paws of the majestic creature are hanging off the side, her fluffy head turning towards the photographer, giving a puzzled look. Her body facing away with her bushy tail in front of the camera resting on a blue & red plaid scarf
