Russia creating distractions and false flag events.
Polish forces shot down a Russian drone earlier on Christmas day, now Russia is shooting at least 4 drones from the direction of Belarus towards Poland.

Take good care.

Russia has closed the case of the Azerbaijani AZAL plane it shot down itself — despite Putin’s earlier promise to see the matter through.

Azerbaijan’s Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov has already stated that Moscow’s decision “raises serious questions,”

However sad, we need constant reminding of the horrors of the tyrant Putin and his regime of kleptocrats and psychopaths.

OTD in 1991 the soviet union collapsed. Its creation was a great catastrophe as millions of citizens suddenly found themselves involuntarily living in Russia.

OTD in 2022 drunken Dima took an especially large swig and made some "predictions".

He was in fact signalling loyalty. He prefers public humiliation to pubic defenestration.

Merry Christmas. Stay well. Thank you for your courage and kindness.

Russia's war in Ukraine is an ecological catastrophe.

Massive Russian terrorist attacks hit multiple electricity substations in Odesa, Ukraine, targeting civilian infrastructure, leaving more the 1 million innocent people without electricity or water in the middle of winter.

Take good care of yourself.
Day 381 of nonstop protests in Georgia. The Russia backed Georgian Dream introduced a new law to curb unsanctioned protests.

Protestors continue to resist daily with no sign of stopping in the face of repression and tyranny. #3E

I'm midway through a 4-gig-1-week tour of Germany to talk about human depopulation and its social & environmental impacts. Spoke at Ruhr Uni Bochum, Dusseldorf, and Duisburg Essen, then Munich on Monday.
Great to meet old friends and engage w students and academics from many countries.

Ukrainian President Zelenskyy reports from Kupyansk, where Ukrainian forces conducted successful counterattacks. Nevertheless, it is quite a move.

That man has balls of steel.

This is the best explanation for the current "peace" process, in my estimation. It's about Trump's enrichment.

So, why does Musk get so exercised by it, so many people talk about Great Replacement Theory, or Europe's civilisational erasure etc. in the States, if no one is interested? Lots of people in the States, particularly Republicans, are talking about it as if its an existential threat.

For sure, I understand. However, no one writes about how environment and depopulation interact; or if they do, they do so on the basis of unproven and inaccurate assumptions. Socio-environmental intersections with depopulation are becoming significant as we realize it's not straightforward.

You must be jealous that you didn't get one in 2018 when the World Cup was in Russia.

Yeah. War crimes in Venezuela, and FIFA give him a peace prize.
He's out strategizing you, Prez! You need to up your game!

Good morning. Took this two years ago. No time to go through camera this morning. Nankeen Kestrel.
Have a great day.

It might provide a nice feature article. How do these big changes impact local people and communities? It's the linking of the global with the local that makes these issues relevant, interesting, and real.

Happy to interview on this if you like. It's an important and interesting story in the present context, and has much broader implications than just the narrow focus of the article.

You're amazing Niall.
