Ott Heinapuu @ohpuu.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I think that there are lots of military folk in Kaliningrad. Those people might have a tendency to be more rabid than the general population.

Ott Heinapuu @ohpuu.bsky.social · 06/10/2026There was an understanding in Libya that no side in the civil war will attack the oil industry to keep the money flowing (through the contested and strangely independent central bank). At the time, that seemed sensible. 200
