The funny thing, of course, is that not reading/badly misreading a paper, dragging it, continuing to double down when people point out your mistakes, then saying how mad you're not getting is classic philosopher behavior
I want to remind everyone that Russia is abducting Ukrainian children and some experts believe this amounts to genocide.
My short summary of Russia’s actions over the past 11 years.
Best sign of the day
One thing donald Trump does do is expose people for being absolutely disgusting opportunistic snakes with no allegiance to ideology or America. First Rudy, now Marco...it's enlightening.

Thousands of Ukrainian children remain abducted by Russia, torn away from their families, homes, and homeland.
Today, we launch the international Easter campaign #ChildrenAreNonNegotiable to remind the world about at least 20,000 Ukrainian kids forcibly transferred by Russia.
Sumy wasn’t a mistake. It was murder, it was a war crime. And unless Europe steps up, it will go unpunished.

Witkoff said that "putin wants peace", that’s why there is dozens of drones flying all around the city hitting residential buildings right now. Strange interpretation of peace

Day 110. The largest protest in weeks, triggered by added anger as the dictatorship seized funds aiding protesters, regime prisoners, & their families.
“You cannot silence SOLIDARITY!”
Without new, free and fair Parliamentary elections, there’s no resolution.

One second from every scene in Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace.
The ability to control mass party opinion this directly is unlike anything I’ve really seen in my time covering politics.
Book cover: Title: "Looking at Women Looking at War: A War and Justice Diary" By Victoria Amelina Foreword by Margaret Atwood Blurb: "Rare, powerful and affecting, a work of principle and courage by a truly brilliant and inspiring writer." from Philippe Sands Cover includes a photograph of Victoria Amelina, a young woman looking earnestly into the camera and at the viewer.
One way to commemorate the end of the third year of Russia’s senseless, criminal war against Ukraine is to read the work of Ukrainians about it. Vika did not live to see the publication of this book, since she was killed by a Russian missile. But we can see her in her words.
Musk and Trump despise Zelensky because they know they'll never earn the level of respect he has—and deep down, they realize he is a hundred times the leader they’ll ever be
Map of Europe with planned Pro-Ukraine rallies

In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll introduce how the Elon Musk’s Election Interference Machine™ (EIM) works. Since Musk and his broligarch allies won the presidency for Trump, they’ve now harnessed the machine to interfere in European elections, including the ones in Germany and Romania.

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.
If European leaders fail to do anything significantly, tangibly useful to advance Ukrainian victory in response to the Trump Administration, then they have zero right to complain.
An existential war for the future of Europe is underway. Play hardball to win or get off the pitch.
"I am on a night train from Kyiv, bound for Zaporizhzhia, a city in the southeast of Ukraine which is about twenty miles from the front... As I get ready to go to sleep, I find myself thinking that Americans are also speeding towards a line."

Once seized from Finland, Karelia now is Russia's most miserable region.
Meanwhile, Finland itself continues to rank among the happiest countries in the world.
This is the Russian way: invade a country, sacrifice 150,000 lives, seize a piece of land, and turn it into a decaying wasteland.

Europe won't survive sleeping through another wake-up call. We should jump out of bed and throw on a shirt. We should do what we can, with what we’ve got. And we’ve got a lot. Here's how to step things up as the US steps down:
The official US position is now that Russia deserves to get something for its aggression, and Ukraine should concede its negotiating position in advance rather than start high—a "high" that's simply in line with international law, BTW—and be willing to negotiate down in exchange for concessions.
I'm sad to share that the trans vet that took her life outside the VA last week was apparently Elisa Rae Shupe.
She's someone many of us know - she was responsible for the mass email leak that let us know how the ADF, Heritage, etc planned to enact trans eradication we see today.
RIP Elisa.
a good part of me thinks that in addition to everything else, the reason they are scrubbing these stories is they do not want disadvantaged kids to believe they can aspire to anything other than their designated “black” or “hispanic” or “woman” job
