Soviet-era joke:
"An old woman saw a camel for the first time in her life and started to cry. When she was asked why she was crying, she replied, "Look at what the Soviet government has done to the horse!"
In the USSR, you could be jailed ten years for telling this joke.

ivy levan was/still is so underrated and less known to public that she stopped making music for about 6 years now 😔 it's sad because her voice is so fcking unique and she's such a beauty too
context: currently listening to one of her songs 'killing you' ft. sting on repeat 🎶🎶

What Christopher Walken says at the end is exactly the vibe Trump gives. Reasonably intelligent people all see it. The fucking morons never will. 😳👇

I am fully aware that my suggestion leads only to blood, toil, tears and sweat. But we have done it before and we can do it again. The alternative is to rebuild the continent after another devastating war, and that would be much harder and take much more time.🧵16/17

Ukraine has a lot to offer to China in return for security—rebuilding, ports, agricultural produce. There will be those in Europe who will support this. This gambit could be called a "Kissinger", splitting the US and Europe as Kissinger split the Soviet Union and China.🧵13/17

I have always felt that China is looking for a way to emerge as the victor, and that is worryingly possible. If the US and Europe don't offer security to Ukraine, China might step into the gap, using its leverage on Russia. They could even offer a better deal than Trump's.🧵12/17

If Europe is unable to stand up, Ukraine will be forced to rely on itself and a smaller group of allies that continue to give support. Threats to European security will grow immensely. Putin will get braver, meaning more war in Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, and beyond.🧵10/17

President Trump will dump this dead cat deal at Europe's door and say take it or leave it. Then it's up to Europe to decide whether or not to stick up for Ukraine and support rejection of the deal.🧵8/17

There is a strong possibility that the meeting between Putin and Trump will result in agreement. Putin is in the position to ask for it all. He might demand an election, the occupied territories, and Ukrainian neutrality. All these ideas have been teased.🧵6/17

The current US administration does not see the EU as it once did—culturally it sees itself aligned with the movements within Europe that are interested in destruction. And this raises the very concerning question—what now are the US interests in Europe?🧵4/17

Per Omair Sharif, the entire upside surprise to inflation was due to auto-related categories.
Of course, people are tired of amputations at this point (there's always something). And tariffs could hit autos further.
But perhaps some reason to think this won't be a durable lift.

The Small Business Administration sent employees a letter saying that they had been fired.
Then it sent them an email saying that the email was a mistake.
Then it sent some of them another email saying actually they were fired

Some pics from the crash at Scottsdale Airport. The one plane skid off the runway into another. Not sure if the pilots are okay, but the cockpit is crushed. #scottsdale #scottdaleairport

As earlier anticipated, a strong frontal band is now moving through SF North Bay and toward SF Peninsula/Central Bay Area, bringing locally torrential downpours and strong, gusty winds. Local urban/creek flooding likely & could be a severe t-storm or two in next few hours. #CAwx
