There were about 3,400 homeless people in Finland at the end of last year, according to figures provided by the Housing Finance and Development Centre of Finland, a government agency. This represents a drop of about 8 percent on the previous year.
However, a report by All Points North earlier this year found that while the numbers of homeless people in Finland are dropping across almost every demographic, the trend for immigrants is accelerating in the opposite direction.

In January of 2021, photos started bouncing round the internet of this deeply weird thing happening in the sky above Glasgow, Scotland. Photoshop trickery?
The bizarre truth:
- yes, everyone really saw these
- no, they’re not faked or manmade
- they absolutely don’t exist.

TL;DR: Joanne isn’t just a TERF, and she isn’t just racist, she’s ableist as fuck too. Ember has receipts.

I know. But Ember is herself autistic, if that helps. I found it went past smoothly, and I retained it, instead of it turning into background noise.

QAA Podcast: Witchcraft Skeptics And The Spanish Inquisition (E306)
Annie Kelly brings Jake, Julian, and Travis tales of the lesser known figures of the European witch hunts during the early modern period: the skeptics who openly doubted that every accused woman was actually a witch.At the time, it was common for village communities in England, Spain, and France to accuse local women of cursing cows and similar satanic mischief. But a handful of men didn’t believe the mainstream belief that witchcraft was widespread. Doubts were raised by the Spanish royal physician Andrés Fernández de Laguna, the English gentleman Reginald Scot, and the inquisitor Alonso de Salazar Frías. Salazar even established rules on investigating witchcraft that set a high standard of proof. This subsequently saved an untold number of accused witches from being hanged or burned at the stake.
What can all of this tell us about the modern right’s use of the language of demonology to describe their enemies? Listen to get exclusive analysis from the National Baby.
To get a better background on the history of witch hunting, Annie interviewed Professor Marion Gibson from the University of Exeter, and author of the book Witchcraft: A History in 13 Trials.
