I spoke to the Secretary-General of NATO, Emmanuel Macron, Keir Starmer, Friedrich Merz and Giorgia Meloni. Together we stand firm in our commitment to uphold the sovereignty of Greenland and the Kingdom of Denmark.

well, if you put it that way maybe people will pay attention.

this is such a powerful historical analysis of where we are and what could come next. maximally enraging and frightening.

well played.

was waiting for the right time to dive into the second & final season of Andor. did it tonight. it's been said before, but the parallels between that show, the Ghorman Massacre and Emperor Palpatine and this administration, the Minneapolis Occupation and the current President are eerily disturbing.
