Stop and take a look at the device you're reading this on. Most probably it was made overseas. Look into your fridge / pantry. Count the non-local things there.

As a man, it’ll never not be funny how we all yearn to have a huge dick—while literally every other living thing seems to hate a huge dick.

Today's violent right-wing authoritarians (maga, vatniks and their brethern) are the losers of the modern world. And I don't say it disparagingly. It's just a clinical observation from modern science papers on their psycho-neurological make-up. They're the Denisovans / Neanderthals of 2025.

E greu să porți o conversație în ziua de azi. Orice ai spune, se găsește imediat un expert în geopolitică de Facebook care îți explică, cu maximă autoritate, că totul e de fapt un plan bine pus la punct de globaliștii soroșisto-usaid-iști! 1/2

We Europeans must prepare for a strong economic downturn at trump's and elon's hands. Get some financial cushion, finish critical investments, delay non-critical ones, hunker down, stock up unperishables and canned foods. We're gonna be hit a bit later than US but we're too interconnected to escape.

With regard to The Firehose Of Bullshit, russia doesn't even come close to what Musk and Zuck will do to (what remains of) the free world in their bid for (more and more) power on a (they hope) stratified, fascistic planet. They'll unmoor the minds of hundreds of millions from reality. Buckle up.

In a world gone mad, the most powerful acts of resistance don’t involve posting on social media, but engaging in your community. Here’s my piece from last summer on the value of Supercitizens, who don’t just provide the glue that keeps us together, but also live longer because of it.
The Power of Supercitizens
Lurking among us are anonymous heroes who quietly amplify social cohesion. Here's what we can learn from them.

the free and rich parts of the world are desperately searching for a benevolent tyrant - someone to make the modern world’s complexity vanish without ruffling their feathers or those of their inner circle.

tyranny. but only for the others.

this is the articulate and bold leadership the EU has been craving
It is a privilege to be in Kyiv alongside @eucopresident.bsky.social Costa and Commissioner Kos.

In my first visit since taking up office, my message is clear: the European Union wants Ukraine to win this war.

We will do whatever it takes for that.

In today’s #vatniksoup, I’ll introduce a Romanian politician and conspiracy theorist, Călin Georgescu. He’s best-known for his pro-Kremlin and conspiratorial views, running for president of Romania, and doing it by only campaigning on TikTok.

So. We're under attack, one by one. Not surprising, but concerning that Europe doesn't seem to understand the danger. We're sleepwalking into technofeudalism.

Fuck.

I'm starting to think that the present form of democracy, "government of the people, from the people, for the people" elected in free and fair elections, might have reached its outer limits. Not because it is a wrong system, but because it rests on a faltering foundation.

In today's #vatniksoup, I'll introduce an American political analyst and media executive, Steve Bannon.
He's best-known for being Trump's chief strategist, "flooding the zone with shit", and for attempting to unite far-right, pro-Putin political parties around Europe.
