this map of the day says wolves are the most dangerous animal in estonia. which sure, wolves are dangerous.

but we also have bears. which are listed as the most dangerous in russia. and russia also has wolves

what makes an estonian wolf more dangerous than a russian wolf? if a russian wolf crosses the border is it now more dangerous? what if it stands with one leg in saatse and one leg in pskov oblast? is it half dangerous. if i yell "tra küll" at a russian wolf is that like its sleeper agent activation phrase?

Lately in Estonian Politics:

(Translation)

Announcer: Next Question goes to (government official) Aleksandr Tšaplõgin. Please.

Tšaplõgin: Thank you minister. I have a question about Russian Delfi (Estonian News Site with translation into Russian). When we open the page- ads for same-sex sex toys. Ads for swingers' clubs. Detailed stories about porn in Estonia. Interviews with pornography actors. In your opinion, is this what state money should be going towards? Thank you.

Kristen Michal (prime minister of Estonia): Good question. The fact is that it's often that Google and other providers offer you ads based on what you have clicked on. It may be this. Thank you.

My elderly father started talking about how frustrating he finds “the pronouns thing” and I was like. Oh no. He had such a good stand on this, he’s been they/them-ing his cishet siblings for god’s sake! Is he regressing?? And he was talking about how difficult it is to remember, and how onerous it feels to expect strangers to keep track of it, and I’m like oh no oh no.

Then he says, “I mean, the problem isn’t the gender thing. The problem is four words: she, her, he, and him. We got rid of stewardess and turned it into flight attendant. It doesn’t matter if the flight attendant is a man or woman, so we got rid of it. We just need to get rid of those. I don’t need to know.”

“You don’t need to know… people’s gender?”

“No. I don’t care, I don’t need to know, and I don’t want to remember it.”

So we can relax. It’s just a continuation of his crusade to they/them the world. He doesn’t want to remember anyone’s gender. He’s abolishing the genders.
