But this will be the third or fourth bailout of the russian empire.
Each time it's teetered on the edge, countries benefiting from cheap resources, bail moscow out.
And all the talk of collapse is shelved for another generation.
Should we not loundly say NO to #bailouts, no more #tooBigToFail ?

The best hope of forcing Putin to stop his genocidal invasion is to push Russia toward bankruptcy. The $12 trillion partnership deal that is reportedly being negotiated with the US is the exact opposite

If I bought a car in the future, it would not be a @mazdausa.bsky.social —and I encourage you to avoid this tainted brand and spread the word.
Like #Nestlé, #Mazda are doing business in russia, and thus supporting terrorism.
From a conservative point of view, this is unacceptable in a modern world.

@kyivindependent.com speaks with a Canadian volunteer, Brittney Shki-Giizis, who left the Canadian military to fight in Ukraine. A former tank instructor, she explains why she chose to come to the front, how she learned Ukrainian… to become an FPV (first-person view) drone pilot.

Today, Irving Berin would be, as I am, banned from the nice places of poetry and the creative arts like #FAFO. You simply don't get to be gay AND have a voice.
So if you can't deal with animosity toward a terrorist leader, that says a lot about you (and it says I am effective with my words).

A paean to energy workers. Heroes of our time, just as the terrorist regime tries to reduce #EUROPEAN cities to zero energy in the coldest it's been in a long, long time.
#Europe, led by #Ukraine, leads, not only in the defence of Europe but in keeping civilisation going against all odds.

Post-Truth society. In which power resides in dictating what people repeat, catechistically.
Left laments and then caves in, Right grudgingly accepts—but "so be it".
One does not need to lie well.

DHS doesn’t even bother trying to lie well. The man whose skull was shattered told the hospital he’d been struck by ICE officers, an ICE officer told hospital staff the guy “got his sh*t rocked,” then when it became clear how badly he was injured, they claimed he deliberately ran into a wall.

I won't say sorry for a long absence from social media.
I will continue to share. Some news: I performed an original translation in multimedia art, of a mediaeval Dutch poem, "Halewijn". I continue to support Ukraine, the defenders of Europe. Come what, come may.

Mama taught me to ask, "What if it just ain't true?" And so I regard the Left-Right dichotomy as imposed conformity. Labels dehumanise those who do not conform.
The kremlin pours our gas money into disinformation that keeps us squabbling with each other, rather than resisting russian aggression.

Bulgaria is not an empire, capable of reform.
An empire in its decline is unfixable.
Maddow is right, you know. That government, built on plantation slavery and resource extraction, is rotten to the core. A parliamentary democracy is needed, not a presidential system.

Yeppers, two guys get to discuss what it is to be a woman in a milieu of abuse of power dynamics. They'll discuss how it affects them, then move on. Thank you, @cnn.com !
The real question is whether you will engage with me on this, or merely explain it to me in terms I can understand.
