We cover the 10 Downing Street 'weirdos and misfits', red teaming the COVID response, ARIA, UK rapid testing & more. Its the first time I've discussed this publically, it was a mixture of fun and therapy for me! statecraft.pub/p/how-to-build… < Link here 2/2

Longtime Israeli activist Jonathan Pollack describes the “intentional killing” of American Aysenur Eygi in the West Bank: “It was quiet. There was nothing to justify the shot. The shot was taken to kill.”

The state of recruitment in the current market is so bad that it makes me want to start a recruitment company lol

I really struggle finding a balance between extremely intensive note-taking (useful for philosophy primary sources and not much else) and not taking any notes at all -- if I try to work in-between I always default to one extreme or the other. Any advice?

There is little to debate about (1) the fact that Israeli mass-killings, enforced starvation, destruction of homes/infrastructure/cities in Gaza should cease immediately and (2) that Israeli settlements in the west bank must cease expansion and, preferably, be destroyed

I love that all of Togashi's posts get 1M+ views and insane engagement but must look completely meaningless to outsiders

All the people being super confident that no way not me that's other people, and acting as if the very idea is laughable to be dunked on, are people I absolutely suspect would be first to get persuaded to go along with great moral evil so long as it was pitched right.

apologies to peter singer. some people really would let a child drown rather than ruin their fancy shoes
