Fun Fact: Switzerland is synonymous with watches because France was the technological center of the 16th C. clock/watchmaking world and many of the industry's leading figures were Huguenots, who fled over the border en masse after the St Bart's Day Massacre. Anyway, this country is so cooked.

If you could use a pick-me-up, check out the Smithsonian’s live cheetah cub cam. The five-day old cubs are beyond adorable, and an important addition to the captive breeding program for this vulnerable species.

I am exhausted by white people leveraging their marginalized identity against others. "I'm trans so I have no other work to do on myself," is the white feminism of the 90s in New packaging.

and like, I’m sympathetic to this, I’m a very moralistic and intense person, oftwn frustrated with society and human nature, but “I’m American and therefore irredeemably evil but NOT as bad as American Jews bc Israel also exists” is not a helathy or politically productive way to move through life

we need to bring back monasteries and nunneries bc it is clear that a not-insignificant amount of people in the online left would be happier living as extreme penitents rather than exist in a sinful world, and they seem to hate any “middle way” between their extreme beliefs and doing nothing

Lifting sanctions on Russia and shifting the narrative to blame Ukraine for rising oil prices opens the door to the business deals Trump & Co. have been discussing with Putin this whole time. ​They may help Russia restore damaged refineries under the same pretext of wanting to buy diesel. ​

There is virtue, I believe, in the protection of the collective. Safeguarding the community is so much harder than lifting the ego. Anyways, join a union, fight inequality & reject the idea that any 1 is better than the health of the many. You know who taught us that? Plato (and later Rousseau).

No one is immigrating here unless you’re a wealthy American or European or Israeli expat who wants cheap tropical rentals, everyone is leaving or wants to leave. And with North American and European immigration rules tightening, it’s harder for us

Culture definitely an issue. Singapore with its shame campaign against third/fourth children definitely hurt its population growth and pensions I imagine the “welfare queen” with multiple babies (a very racist narrative) had a similar effect

A good time to remind people that Chris Van Hollen is the only Member of Congress to have ever called for European states to sanction the President and Secretary of State, in this case specifically in response to their attempts to destroy the ICC in order to protect Israel.

It's always stupid to draw conclusions from by-elections but my tentative one remains this: there is a large group of people who do wish GPEW well and wish it to succeed, you can mobilise them and turn them into GPEW voters, but you need to stabilise the ship.

I personally have a hard time coming up with strong principled beliefs about provincial vs. municipal jurisdiction, so I focus on the merits of the policy. Trying to ban/limit housing near jobs and transit is dumb when municipalities do it and it’s dumb when provinces do it.

The Philippines is an Indianized culture (many of our epics and religion have roots in Hindu tradition) but more recent Indian influence is because of the British Indian soldiers who arrived during the Seven Years’ War/the brief British occupation of Manila www.khaleejtimes.com/world/asia/i...

Sepoys were Indian soldiers brought by the British during their brief occupation of Manila from 1762 to 1764 as part of the Seven Years' War. They mutinied and fled to the outskirts of Manila

we really should talk about the (British) Indian Army more
There is no sense in which the Indian Army was a minor element in
British power. It was “the leading British strategic reserve on land” and
made Britain an Asian land power for nearly two hundred years (Black
1998: 178). Indian divisions played critical roles in both world wars,
helping to prevent a German victory in France in the autumn of 1914,
eject Rommel from North Africa, and fight up the Italian peninsula, as
well as carrying the main burden of Britain’s war against Japan in Burma,
