Fortunately, the man survived but sustained injuries.

Multiple lawmakers here in Munich told me the U.S. Congressional delegation presented Zelensky with a piece of paper they wanted him to sign which would grant the U.S. rights to 50% of Ukraine’s future mineral reserves. Zelensky politely declined to sign it. #MSC2025

Six months ago I wrote a viral thread, arguing that NATO has 2-3 years to prepare for Russia challenging NATO Art 5.
I wanted to revisit the topic for a while. In light of @JDVance1's pick as VP, today seems as good as any.
TLDR: panic should set in. 1/15

I do really, really wish that substance mattered much more than style. The content of what these men say is more important than how they say it. But Biden's delivery is so fragmented it's hard to follow - getting to the substance takes work. Most viewers are not going to get it.

mycelium - notes on imperialism
in online leftist spaces the overlap between solidarity for victims of western imperialism and solidarity for victims of non-western imperialism appears diminishingly small. the same is true of activist spaces i'm involved with in real life. 1/

In fact 27 signatures decide more than the fate of 38 million people. As the Poles, Lithuanians, Latvians and Estonians know entirely too well, we are a hair breadth's from the third world war.

Some Thursday thoughts about racism in Ukraine.
Yesterday, I came across an incident on Instagram involving Zhan Beleniuk, a Ukrainian Olympic champion and politician. Someone had written to him in the "ask me" stories feature: "Go away from Europe, monkey. Ukraine is for white Ukrainians."
Initially, one might assume that this was fabricated by a bot to sow division among Ukrainians and simulate racism where it may not exist. However, it's crucial to acknowledge that such attitudes do exist among some Ukrainians.
My reflection revolves around how individuals come to adopt such beliefs. How do they justify and support their racist views, especially when Ukrainian history is marked by oppression and suffering under rus-n rule, including serfdom and exterminations? What factors contribute to this dominant and oppressive behavior?
These questions will occupy my attention in the coming years because I firmly believe that Ukraine possesses immense potential for social cohesion and a more regenerative future. – at Ukraine
