In case you're wondering, authoritarians use this strategy of escalation to manufacture crisis, provoke outrage, then use the reaction to justify repression. It’s not about restoring order, it's about creating a spectacle of chaos they can claim only they can control.

Trump spent 75 minutes on the phone with Putin. He praised him, talked about teaming up on Iran, but apparently never called on him to stop targeting innocent civilians. What a disgraceful way to treat our allies and the brave people of Ukraine.

THREAD. When my parents' cat Bridget went missing, my dad, to try to ease his worry, painted her on a variety of historical ventures. Soon, these numbered in the dozens. After much nagging, my dad has had some postcards printed of this brilliant series: michaelcoxmoredaysthansausages.bigcartel.com

No one should sugar coat the real problems in Zimbabwe but watching a multiracial cricket team represent the country in England for the first time in 22 years whilst being cheered on by a multiracial diaspora, underlines the unreality of Trump's obscene lies about White Genocide in Southern Africa
