Weird headlines.

it’s unreal how these grown-ass men had no problem destroying untold lives with chatGPT but go crying to a judge when people make fun of them online

Prime Minister Støre, Chancellor Merz, and I agree: by working together, we can better protect and defend the Arctic and High North, and ensure the security and prosperity of the entire region.

The Afipsky oil refinery, Krasnodar region, in Russia is burning once again. It appears that the main installation node for oil refining was hit.

If true, very embarrassing, but US has about 600 to give a scale

#Iran attacks Mar. 13 12.00 AM

Trump: "Moments ago, at my direction, Central Command executed one of the most powerful bombing raids in the History of the Middle East, and totally obliterated every MILITARY target in Iran’s crown jewel, Kharg Island ... those in this Terrorist Regime, would be wise to lay down their arms."

Recommend watch. For multitude of reasons but a good overview why most experts are baffled. US actions towards Strait have been, and I did choose the correct term, insane. Even without planning or regarding Iranian hidden "supper-weapons", easy, DOABLE, must actions are avoided 1/2

Groups in Iran against gov Kurds have PDKI, PJAK, PAK, Komala Baloch/Sistan have Jaish al-Adl, BRF, MPF Khuzestan movement has Ahwaz Falcons, Ahwaz Brigades, ASMLA Azeris have SADP and SAOCC Add MEK/PMOI That doesn't count official resistance or terrorist terrorist and I might miss a few

✋ Former USG war crimes lawyer here. Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning: Denial of quarter—even the declaration of no quarter—is a war crime. And recognized as such by the US Government. From DoD's Manual for Military Commissions.

Denis Alimov, FSB Alfa veteran and senior operative of Russia's new and "most secretive" assassination unit, walked into El Dorado Airport in Bogotá on Feb 24 looking like a tourist heading to Cartagena. He walked out in handcuffs. He was undone by Google Translate.🧵⏬️ 1/ theins.press/en/inv/290235

#Kazakhstan goes to the polls on Sunday to vote on a new constitution. Check out my @eurasianet.bsky.social story for more eurasianet.org/kazakhstan-p.... - and for much more on how the country's authoritarian political system has been built over many decades, read my book Dark Shadows!

1/2 The Ukraine combat reality has impacted UGV design away (for most part) from large, sophisticated vehicles towards smaller, cheaper and more attritable UGVs. This is Russia's Uran-3 - a smaller "sibling" to a larger Uran-9. Uran-3 is undergoing testing by the Rus military. iz.ru/2057968/roma...

EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas: “What I think is actually important for everybody to understand is that the US has been very clear that they want to divide Europe. They don’t like the European Union”. www.ft.com/content/1b9c...

The Wire scene where McNulty and Bunk say fu*k 3 minutes straight

Ukranian 🇺🇦 making friends every where they go! I think this will have actual noticeable real world benefits

Why these graphs are, if not useless, should be taken with a grain of salt In 2012 UN projected Nigeria would reach 914 million by 2100. In 2024, they projected 477 million. 2026 415 million

"I don't know what weapons the next war will be fought with, but the one after that will be with sticks." "Because of nukes, right?" "No, because we decided logistics was woke."

this means it is not open for transit

Bizarre but true: it is March 2026, and yet twice this month at two different events in two different countries I have had audience questions from individuals who are still adamant that Russia only invades its neighbours because NATO makes them do it. They are still out there, folks.

A Danish research ship was hit by GPS spoofing Mar 10 of Bornholm. This is unusually far from Kaliningrad for a ship. There are also other indications that Russia has made changes in their electronic warfare systems, making the reality for Baltic Sea mariners even more dire. More to come.

It's Day 1479 of a war Russia was supremely confident would be completed in a few days and result in the toppling of a Head of State it didn't like, with a puppet. But Ukraine has lost its independence to Moscow before, it knows the horrors that await and won't give in. Here's the daily🧵

Sweden is stepping up the shadow fleet game with another violent boarding of a stateless tanker, last one less than a week ago. Minister Bohlin surely does not sound like this is the last of it. Previous boarding has led to detention of vessel CAFFA and charges against crew.

Local russians "We are fcked, its coming" 😁 Královec is here!

Tikhoretskaya. Nice fire going indeed

Kas meil see vale-Narva diskussioon oli? Peaks trummi taguma et näed mis teevad. Õlgu kehitama et 50 hullu. Meediat taunima et pumpavad hirmu üles? Mulle tundub see enamasti hale naljakas aga noh, ajalugu teades, päris ilma rääkimata vist ei saa?

Since Starlink has been deactivated for Russian forces in Ukraine the internet traffic has dropped by 75%. Imagine that 3 out of 4 terminals were in Russian hands. Source: Kentik

While the statments are true. I'm not sure promoting a Pakistani grift operation is in anyone's best intrest. All most all "Iranian news" accounts are somesort of scams, spamms or grifts

Rank buying has a bad rep but it did have several more positive/neutral parts. For central government a major one was loyalty. Because your rank was money but only so if the army exsisted becoming a rebel was much more difficult. For many it was their pension, so next guy had to offer atleast twice

We Taught This Chimpanzee to Understand Commodity Markets and He Hanged Himself

1/ The shutdown of Starlink is reported to be causing a sharp rise in casualties among Russian signalmen and linemen, who are being systematically targeted by Ukrainian drones as they attempt to install alternative communications systems. ⬇️ bsky.app/profile/spec...

Fiber price is starting to hurt in Ukranian drone attacks. Price of a Km went from 4USD to 35USD. Starlink would be an option but also lacks the production numbers. So terminal AI assist? There are great ones thefourthlaw.ai but oh boy how I don't like Skynet

German 🇩🇪 Rheinmetall is doing numbers, from today's earnings call #ReArmEU

It gets better/worse. Trump asked the sizes, so they either lied (because shoe size=dick size) or didn't lie and Trump got them wrong sizes on purpose.

My favourite grasshopper fact: Grasshoppers first appeared on the planet 250 million years ago. Grass did not appear on the planet until 40 million years ago Imagine it: 210 million years, hopping around on any random surface you can find, waiting for the grass that will make you truly yourself.

The number of cancer deaths worldwide has more than doubled since the 1980s. Does that mean we're losing the fight against cancer? Not necessarily, because it depends on how you measure it. On this chart, you can see three ways to look at the same data. 🧵

A large part of the reason why the US Navy has been able to get away with underinvesting in MCM is... NATO. The sharing of capabilities meant that the US could leave MCM to European allies, who became rather good at it. This didn't take into account the US fighting a dumbass war, w/o NATO.
