Hello again Stockholm, that was a waste of time..

Millions of women have miscarriages every year. Treatment to remove the dead fetus is abortion. Otherwise sepsis sets in and you die. Thousands have ectopic pregnancies. If you don't get an abortion,you die. Abortion is healthcare. Roe v Wade protected that healthcare. No more.

A man who bragged about sexual assault got to appoint a man who was credibly accused of rape to a court where a man who was credibly accused of sexual harassment was already serving, and THEY got to strip American women of a fundamental human right. How fucked up is that?

Good god, this world is so nuts… Political assassinations, revanchist colonial wars, dumb pony world appeasers, scandals, nuclear intimidation, world food crisis. We are so backwards. We should have been landing on the Moon right now instead of this crap.

1/20 Russia is terror-bombing Ukraine with missiles, fired from a safe distance, purposefully selecting civilian targets with no military value. At the same time, we are reluctant to give Ukraine weapons with enough range to hit targets on Russian soil. For fear of escalation.

I’m going to file this under ”I have a feeling I might be pretty old”

Russia: "We're telling you openly for the millionth time the invasion is about seizing territory and erasing Ukraine and Ukrainian culture. We've also kidnapped a million Ukrainians and murdered tens of thousands more!" People: "Ah, yes, I hear you: NATO is bad."

Final week of vacation started and I’m almost destressed enough to enjoy any aspect of it..

If peaceful protest against your government is dangerous, you waited too long to do it, and tomorrow it will be even worse.

First day back after vacation and not a single password had expired.. does that mean I’m Milton in Office Space?

Never equate Russians fleeing the war they started to Ukrainians fleeing the war that was brought to them by Russia.

It’s even worse than that. The greatest obstacle to Western support for Ukraine is the lack of imagination to understand what Europe’s security order would look like following Russia’s victory in its war against Ukraine respectively its non-kinetic war vs Europe. #RealPolitik

Unfortunate article in The Nation, the venerable US lefty mag, that appears not to have been fact-checked, so let’s do that fact-checking, shall we? There are 10 main claims made by author Paul Hockenos, so it’ll take a bit of a chonky🧵. But here goes: thenation.com/article/world/…
