We played the long game. Easier than I thought.

“Globalist and woke pope” is killing me.

Folks episode two is up of our Air Raid Warning Red series. Now, this is a bit nerdy but if you really want to understand what a close run thing the battle was, we felt it’s important to understand the kit a d tactics being used. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/s... open.spotify.com/episode/2NM1...

I struggle these days whenever someone asks me for my political affiliation. But if you really force me, I’d describe myself as a “Dropbox Independent." I'm full up and can't accept any new information, and I inform you of that every couple days, at inconvenient times.

turning a big dial taht says "bomb militants" on it and constantly looking back at the president and Truth Social for approval like a contestant on the price is right

It’s my birthday. Send me money or cigarettes.

The Ferrari garage should approach their strategy by doing the exact opposite of what they think is going to work.

Military aid to 🇺🇦: 🇺🇸: $64.13 billion 🇩🇰: $7.54 billion Pop: 🇺🇸: 347 million 🇩🇰: 6 million Aid per person: 🇺🇸: $184 🇩🇰: $1256 The U.S. was paying the equivalent of 3 large pizzas per person per year to destroy the Russian military & someone convinced them it was a bad deal

the arc of history is long. it's long as hell. it's just—whew. it's a long-ass arc, is all I can tell you.

The options here are abandon the US and guarantee your own security or learn Mandarin.

Sooooooo many of you have not come to terms with reality yet. Y’all need to understand there are no guardrails and there are no adults in the room to prevent or clean up disasters. You’re no longer allowed to be surprised by this stuff. Prepare accordingly. Abandon the US.

You a hot boy, a rock boy.

I appreciate how many of you are Seriously Sophisticated, but we’ve genuinely lost the plot. First and foremost, Elon needs to be imprisoned for naming his child Techno Mechanicus.

You know? I still find it remarkably easy to remain patriotic throughout this administration. Trump and the MAGA crowd are a repudiation of every single civic ideal that the United States is meant to represent—and I see no reason to stop believing in those ideals because of them.

We spoke with our friend in Odesa about the psychological toll of the war and how resilience evolved as Russia’s naval power diminished. It’s an important perspective to accompany our larger discussion on the Black Sea Fleet’s lost victories. Many, many thanks to Olga for joining us.
