My thoughts on the disastrous meeting between Zelensky and Trump. Trump is beginning to realize that his peace plan is failing, and he tried to bully Zelensky into submission. It didn't work.

I really need a video from @anderspucknielsen.dk about the US potentially losing their 'soft power' in the world 🙏

I often hear that the geopolitical power of the United States of America is primarily based on their immense military strength. USA's global power is based on economics and international relations which are BACKED by military power. It's a triangle of power that collapses if one node disappears.

Det är bara nazism om det kommer från nazistdistriktet i Tyskland. Annars är det bara mousserande konservatism.

Found this @anderspucknielsen.dk video on the dangers of over egging peace talks interesting

French MPA: “was patrolling international airspace over the Baltic Sea, as part of a NATO operation, and was illuminated by the fire control radar of an S400 ground-to-air defense system ,” Happened on the night between Wednesday and Thursday.

AfD is worried about cyber-bullying by the nice fellas in NAFO (yes, I spelled that correctly). www.bundestag.de/presse/hib/k...

TRUMP: "After completely eliminating US immigration we have managed to .. *checks notes* .. increase crime rates across the board!" Crowd: *Confused in MAGA* www.aeaweb.org/research/cha... www.aeaweb.org/articles?id=...

This is an excellent primer on some of the privacy dangers posed by large scale AI, from a cybersecurity perspective. Written in clear language, it's the most accessible rundown I've seen yet on these topics! desfontain.es/blog/privacy...

Shadow tanker JAZZ, who likely broke down three times last two weeks, is now anchored in Danish waters. If one reads UNCLOS as closely as one did when YI PENG 3 was let go it is hard to not read it as an obligation or at least an opportunity for Denmark to do a port state control.

Worth paying attention to: “At the White House, senior Biden-administration officials are more convinced than their colleagues in the intelligence agencies that Havana syndrome could have been the result of a deliberate attack by an American foe” www.theatlantic.com/internationa...

Lammy: “I am occasionally asked on my travels … when will the Kremlin threat, this upheaval that we’re experiencing, end? When will things get back to normal? My answer is that they will not. Europe’s future security is on a knife-edge.” www.gov.uk/government/s...

It feels surreal to have Squid Game season 2 juxtaposed to Beast Games season 1. One is dystopian fictional commentary, the other is dystopian reality.

🧵It's Wednesday morning, and I've had TWO coffees. That means it's time for wild speculation and spurious conclusions! Today we will provide a totally non-credible and poorly sourced answer to the question: WHY DOES TRUMP WANT GREENLAND??? (Spoiler: It's not rocks, Marie..)

It seems to me that the time is ripe for a Bluesky thread about how—and maybe even why—to befriend crows. (1/n)

@auonsson.bsky.social Swedish Police and Chinese officials are planned to board YI PENG 3 today, per a press release from the Swedish Police. polisen.se/aktuellt/nyh...

The Economist chose "Kakistocracy" as their word of the year. www.economist.com/culture/2024...

Photons have no chill

Do you remember when I sounded the alarm "Russian broken 7k ton fertilizer ship that visits key strategic locations is a bad idea. It takes only some oil to make it a floating bomb." Guess what, parts of the cargo was contaminated with fuel oil and the rest is heading for Newcastle.
