There’s a claim that all myths and stories in all of #history can be boiled down to following the Hero’s Journey. @PeterGainsford has some issues with this, & takes us on our own journey through mythology to offer a different perspective. #Twitterstorians

But hey, at least the world has all the Russian gas and oil that it wants.
Stay warm.
Ukrainian children will pay the price.

I had good reasons to hate Russian security services before. Now I am just exploding. I feel angry, I feel stupid, I feel naive, I feel tired. I got played. I had him in class. Twice, in fact. One class was half-Zoom during COVID, several interactions outside classroom

So many Ukrainians went back to fight that there is a shortage in Poland of taxi drivers, construction workers, and other such jobs. Let that sink in. And yet some still talk like we're giving charity to Ukraine as they sacrifice their lives for us.

Economic price for action, for total isolation of Putin's murderous regime? Yes, you waited too long and the price went up. Now you pay for your complacency, your complicity. You will pay in gas while Ukrainians pay in blood. You are lucky.

There is no light at the end of the ESG tunnel. If you work in the space, your choices are to be a useful idiot, toiling in the trenches, for what you think is a good cause, be a feckless knave, in it just for the money, or find something else to do. bit.ly/36TxIn8

And that's the story of how I never backed another kickstarter campaign. Still psyched to support artists independent projects on any platform not entangled with crypto nonsense

We skipped AGI and invented the paperclip maximizer directly instead. Except it's sort of a Lovecraftian blind idiot god built of a terrflopping horde of mindless silicon computing SHA256 hashes lulled by the monotonous deranged chants of the crypto cult.

Without spoilers, the Sonny Boy finale was a beautiful end to a beautiful series. From start to finish the anime has oozed creativity and tackled what it means to live & change the world in such an ingenious way. I think this may be Shingo Natsume's best work. #SonnyBoy

I mean, funny take and all.
But frankly we need to encourage Taiwan to invest less in hard-to-sustain prestige weapon systems and more in cost-effective A2/AD and asymetric systems: more infantry training, prepare for playing the I side of COIN, more mines, more missiles, etc.
