Only do social media for Ukraine (used to be Israel as well - but no longer). Can’t wait to quit it all. Pic is my dog “swoops”, a better pick for US President.

One for the Musk fanboys. Wait till you see what musk’s shenanigans with starlink cost SpaceX.
Every single person who bought Tesla stock five years ago and has been holding it is a loser. No dividends. No stock buybacks. Zero asset appreciation in five years. Meanwhile the S&P 500 index fund is up 65% over the same period.

February 2025 The US announced it had switched sides. People have been in denial about it ever since then.
The vote at the UN in February 2025 was not a fluke. The USA wasn't dragged into the position of refusing to condemn Russia's war. Negotiations with Russia don't necessitate it. Even China abstained. This is US foreign policy now. Take a look to see who your new allies are.

Does anybody know why Putin isn't declaring mobilisation when they are literally bleeding soldiers every day and if this keeps going there'll be none left? Is he too scared he'll be hung by his own people? Surely he knows there aren't any Russians left who are courageous enough to topple him!
Russian losses per 14/10/26 reported by the Ukrainian General Staff +1650 men +2 tanks +1 ACV +54 artillery +1 MLRS +1827 UAVs +9 GRCs

Punishing The Orbit Bombs break fixed positions, drones suppress what survives and open routes through the obstacles, and infantry follows on foot to take the ground. The problem is timing: a bomb can remove a building in seconds, but the infantry meant to exploit it may still be days away.
The Retraction Loop The northern claw is gone, collected the way these things always are — the arrows showed up to record a result produced weeks earlier. Lyman is the reference; this is what it costs.

Also we’re raising the price of your sandwich subscription (again!) to cover the costs of supply chain disruptions and we’ve integrated AI into your sandwich to save you time—it will now eat itself!
Can’t eat a sandwich until you subscribe to sandwiches. Can’t eat today’s sandwich until it has applied daily sandwich updates. Sandwich now has adverts even though you paid for ad-free sandwich. Can pay again to have less sandwich adverts. Now you can eat the sandwich, but it’s smaller.

Watching the Dollar empire crumble because they elected a demented conman (twice) has such a beautiful kudos to it. There’s no way back from these changes. A proper Eurobond market and it’s pretty much all over for those hooligans in The White House (And America eventually).
THE ATTACK THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN It was so imminent Trump returned from Camp David early and the military were clearly prepping, with B-1 bombers leaving late at night from Fairford. I was told the Houthis were about to get walloped again for their transgressions against the Saudis. Iran issued a Code

This. As usual Europe will waffle a bit and then fail to understand the point.
The goal is to break the renewal cycle, create precedent, and make every future package a hostage negotiation. If the EU cannot renew a list of 3,000 names because two capitals want carve-outs for oligarchs, then the sanctions architecture itself is failing. Not because of Russian military strength.
