What is this high school debate shit?

Everyone wants peace!

Adults just realize that any peace which lasts beyond a Russian re-arming / recruitment cycle has to be on terms that don't reward Russia's initial invasion with land and legitimacy, and which meaningfully deter future aggression.

it's great how while actually quite a lot of the european left copped on to its russia blindspot since 2022, varoufakis actually radicalised into a full blown tankie simply because razem politicians dared confront him about it to his face

My friend develops a specialized audio player for the visually impaired. He finally for got around to making some tutorials.
You might want to check it out and introduce it to your grandparents during Christmas dinner.
.... he really should've posted this before Thanksgiving...
Finally made a video showing podcast configuration in my audio player app 😮‍💨
Podcasts are a great complement to audiobooks.
And they automatically update even when you have no time to load more books onto the player.

Tell your grandma!

Podcasts for non‑tech‑savvy, visually impaired seniors are now easier than ever.

See how to configure a podcast in Homer Audio Player. Once done by a caregiver, the senior can access and play the newest episodes with intuitive and large UI.

The 2022 Biden strategy had a condemnation of “Russia’s brutal and unprovoked war on its neighbor Ukraine,” while the Trump strategy has no words of censure at all. None. While silent about Russian transgressions, it has plenty of nasty things to say about America’s European allies. wapo.st/4prmqK9

After this weekend's racist attacks on the EU, I've written a column about the moral obligation to stop posting on X.

Oh no, wait, I wrote it *two years ago* when it was blatantly obvious what was going on and how it would get much much worse.

The calls from America this weekend to "abolish the EU" are for one simple reason: the EU is the only thing that can keep European nation-states from becoming Russian or American vassals.
The US has declared rhetorical war on the EU
The calls from America this weekend to destroy the EU are revealing. They hate the union because it's the only thing that can keep European countries from being Russian or American vassals.

A male rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) in winter plumage.

Ptarmigan is from Gaelic 'tarmachan' meaning "croaker". The p- was added when people mistakenly assumed it was a Greek word.

A bird forever warning people: "A werewolf!" (just in case of werewolves).

The world needs to know Trump’s US is a country which will watch two stranded men fight for life on a camera feed for an hour, only to dispatch a $100k anti-armor missile to turn their bodies to pulp, and then laughingly describe it as military necessity. Show the world how we’re killing for sport.

US government adopted the far-right Great Replacement myth and is now demanding NATO countries to dismantle the EU and the European project. They themselves frame it as a binary choice. Essentially the end of NATO as we know it.

I don't really know what the administration hopes to gain by picking fights with the most well-liked pop artists in the United States. You're just generating backlash for no discernible reason outside of owning the libs.
Sabrina Carpenter ratioed the White House after it used her song in an ICE video.

If Russia is banned for its war of aggression and atrocities against civilians in Ukraine, Israel should be banned for its genocide in Gaza.

This should not be hard for anyone with a shred of moral/intellectual integrity.
