A war leader should always wear a suit. (apparently)

Phillips OBrein writes an excellent substack about Ukraine, strategy and geopolitics. Hopefully European leaders grasp the reality and go all in on supporting Ukraine without America.

The US voting WITH Russia at the UN. Neither China nor Iran did. A clear sign of the new world order. Europe needs to quickly unite and stand up for itself quickly.

In the update no one was looking for, it seems much better if you toggle from video to audio mode (which is fine for me as the video I was trying to watch was just a podcast)

Watching videos on the website version of sub stack is an incredibly frustrating experience. They keep skipping back to the start, won't play in the background etc... all over annoyingly frustrating.

Europe urgently needs its own plan of action concerning Ukraine and our security, or else other global players will decide about our future. Not necessarily in line with our own interest. This plan must be prepared now. There’s no time to lose.

Any suggestions for two days in Amsterdam with a 5 & 7yr old? Will be there this summer. #Amsterdam #FamilyTravel

How a Lime bike can break your leg (not your usual click bait rant about Lime bikes, but a serious piece on design flaws and maintenance issues):

Very good read:

Where is going to be the warmest place I can go running in the morning?

Not the add I was expecting

Interesting thread:

Interesting article. Ukrainian pilots are doing heroic stuff in our dated planes with seemingly not much ammunition either.

Pleasingly the missing car key was in the first place I looked for it.

🚗What's happening to Europe's car industry is one of the biggest stories in the world right now, & prob the biggest story of next year too. A slow motion implosion driven by multiple factors (esp Chinese competition). Watch my primer on what's going on👇 youtu.be/oW_SXIVQT5I?...

@chimpman.bsky.social did you see last week's Grand Designs? They didn't finish, but they had a fireman's pole and THREE internal slides planned.

Continuing the weekend's niche EV spotting, this morning I saw my first Microlino.

Saw a Fisker Ocean driving down Lewisham Way today. (Niche electrical vehicle tweet)
