"The story of immediate post-Nazi Germany's adult population was overwhelmingly one of continuity. They supported Hitler once; they couldn't be trusted not to make a similar choice in the future. The true miracle is that their children rejected them so thoroughly."

Step 1: Cut €2bn from development spending, including massive cuts across Africa. Step 2: Condemn Trump for cutting aid. Step 3: Announce “$800m for Africa” with great fanfare, as if you were filling the gap you helped create.

GOP playbook: • Find sacred historical locations • Announce a restructuring • Put oligarchs on BoD • Call vote for adding a living person’s name to the site • Courts say “no”; do it anyway * Tear down historical site • Never build anything unless it’s a safety hazard that can kill people

We often assume that our memories are stored in our brains, just like a hard drive stores data. bit.ly/4AfiMbS In this talk, philosopher Victoria Trumbull argues this is a radical mistake: she argues that the brain enables memory without containing it, and that time itself stores memory.
