This entire 🧵 terrifies me.
No Russian opposition should be recognized unless and until it recognizes self-determination of all ethnic minorities and agrees for reparations as a bare minimum.

Feels weird to be the last generation who had a living relative (well into my adulthood) who survived polio and fought in WWII.
Feels bad knowing those lessons were won in blood but won’t endure.

One of the reasons I love being in #Pinelands is because there's so much less light pollution that you can actually see the stars.
