Danish military expert @anderspucknielsen.dk:

"We have to push towards Ukrainian victory. That is absolutely essential. I cannot see how Europe can balance Russia in the future without Ukraine. #Ukraine is absolutely essential for European security after the United States is withdrawing here."

Should X/Twitter be banned in the UK and the EU?

As it’s now being used to spread and promote misinformation and propaganda to serve autocrats and oligarchs that don’t care about living in a more liberal, harmonious society, maybe the answer is yes.

What do you think?

The US is in the process of betraying everything they have stood for the last 80 years. Granting all of the wishes the Russians could have hoped for after attacking Ukraine, abandoning both treaties, promises and principles, It’s an utter tragedy for the world, and ultimately for the US too.

Here’s a thought that I haven’t seen anywhere but just occurred to me…

Trump is unhappy that European countries aren’t spending enough on defense. Maybe he’ll ask us to spend 5%. Maybe he’ll pull out of NATO.

I like to play Factorio, and with v2 finally out there is a lot to explore. I’ve made a couple of videos explaining things I’ve learned to fellow Factorians :)

Here is the first one, about making fuel efficient spaceships:

John Oliver really hits home with his latest Last Week Tonight, covering Israel vs Hamas. It’s gruesome that both Israelis and Palestinians have been seriously let down by their governments. Cease fire now and stop killing innocent people.
