Historian here history first time as tragedy the second time as farce.
Pretty big news out of ECOWAS aimed at combatting that looks aimed to combat and mitigate the spread of JNIM, ISGS, ISWAP, and others. Intent appears to be to cooperate with the Alliance of Sahel States (Mali, Niger, & Burkina Faso) as well.
I meant to write Khamenei. But Khomeini as well.
Things simultaneously true:
1. Iran's regime is evil. F*ck Khomeini.
2. Blowing stuff up seldom has strategic value.
3. POTUS's ability to initiate a war like this despite the Constitution should worry all Americans whether we approve of this instance or not
If only I had reason to believe the people in charge knew what they were doing.
Frankly, I expected better from a FIFA Peace prize winner
I remember when trying to forgive student loans was massive overreach of Presidential power.

This is not a movie scene.
This is a Ukrainian city that Russia is systematically erasing.
They want it to disappear β physically and from the worldβs memory.
Please, donβt stay SILENT

I talked to @sashotodorov.bsky.social about casualty data and what they tell us about Ukraine and the death of decisive battle. Check it out.

According to that logic then America is only truly safe if it occupies Canada
Never forget:
"Dearest friends or whatever
We are calling ourselves these days
My current location
I cannot disclose
Geographically
It's nowhere that Iβve been before
But emotionally
Weβre on the same road"

I've been deep into the muck of Medicare on behalf of my father. Takeaway: The US system is an evil blend of Kafka and Calvin. Kafka provides the bureaucratic absurdity and opacity. Calvin is responsible for the clear message that runs throughout it all: "You're poor? F*ck you, you suck."
Busy editing an interview I just did with @sashotodorov.bsky.social about Ukraine and the death of battle in modern warfare. Stay tuned!
That's exactly what I was thinking
This is wonderful.
The challenge is picking which season to watch. The finale of season 1 is great, but it's only in season 2 that things really get going. You know, when Spike and Dru appear. Of course the best of all the badies is Glory, who's in season 5. The season 5 finale is among the best TV ever made.
Anyone watching the SOTU tonight has to do some deep reflection as to why they passed on the opportunity to rewatch Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
The Danish Government announced it will increase the Defence budget with 21.6bn DKK (2.9bn EUR) in 2027 or a total of 255.4bn DKK (34.2bn EUR) to 2033.
This will raise the budget permanently to 3.5% of GDP by 2030.
It also aims to increase other related budgets to 1.5% by 2030
Thank you.
Smug judgementalism cut with left antisemitism. I find it no less odious than the crap I see over there. I guess the problem isnt the app but the fact that the humans using them are well, humans. And we kinda suck.
IDF answers to French Army questions about the effect of networked warfare tech on Mission Command. Check it out.

Wow.
This is precisely why I don't like bluesky and prefer Twitter. The smug judgmentalism.
As a Pennsylvanian, I've never understood this either.

Un Γ©pisode avec @simnasr.bsky.social pour garder un Εil rΓ©gulier sur ce qui est en train de se passer au Sahel et notamment au Mali (et en Syrie) un peu plus loin des camΓ©ras, mais comme souvent quand il s'agit de jihadistes en train de conquΓ©rir un pays, c'est pas mal de ne pas oublier le sujet.
