"Ukraine's Health Ministry reported on July 22 that a total of 1,642 medical facilities have been damaged, and another 214 facilities have been completely destroyed since Russia launched its full-scale invasion in February 2022 — although the updated number is likely significantly higher."

Trump and Musk don’t want you reading and having your way of thinking influenced by these books.
Actually - they’re counting on the fact that you won’t be bothered to.

Watch this, but pay especially close attention to the 6-minute mark.

Just read this book over the past couple of days as Trump and Musk begin implementing their own sick vision of authoritarianism in parallel. Terrifying stuff.
Found three mouse turds in my boot this morning but I also bought the dip.

Another great substack post by Snyder
...It is a sign of our cultural problem that we say "insurance" or "health care" when we mean "death grift."

I had no idea that Chechnya, a Russian province is governed by sharia law.
You’d think conservative media would be all over this and for fully supporting Ukrainian efforts, and also that they’d be vehemently against allowing for a stronger Russia via a Trump “peace plan”.

That there are 38 Republicans responding sensibly to this is encouraging

In case you missed my fave books of the year and want to help me get that Warpcast Reward UBI to put toward reading and sharing more books ;-)
GM from my portfolio
Hopefully more people (Americans) will decide to wake up and start paying attention to people like Timothy Snyder who know what they're talking about, because unlike Trump and his unthinking zombie acolytes - this is how an actual expert communicates

Trump and Musk fabricate an unnecessary internal crisis while externally scapegoating Canada and Mexico for America's problems.
Classic fascist playbook.

I haven't even made use of the new secondary market on @rodeodotclub yet, but wanted to say that just the notifications implementation of it is brilliantly done. Looking forward to playing around some more soon.
Well done folks!

“…This form of soft dictatorship does not require mass violence to stay in power. Instead, it relies upon a cadre of elites to run the bureaucracy, the state media, the courts, and, in some places, state companies. These modern day clercs understand their role, which is to defend the leaders, however dishonest their statements, however great their corruption, and however disastrous their impact on ordinary people and institutions. In exchange, they know that they will be rewarded and advanced.”
In case you missed my top books I read in 2024:
Anyone else notice that the anti-DEI, “merit based” talking point regurgitation crowd leaned heavily into supporting MAGA/Trump - who now appoints talentless hacks whose only qualifications and qualities are fealty? Trump played Americans, again.
Anyway, back to the stack to pop off the next book I've been waiting to get to
Okay as promised, here's my top 3 books I read in 2024 (and a couple of bonus honorable mentions).
Each book drove me to self-reflect and break out of poor long term habits and ways of thinking, effecting immediate positive change.
I won't go into details. Just read them and see if you have similar results.

So it looks like there’s a hot new flu arriving just in time for Trump to intentionally mismanage into unnecessarily killing Americans again
Are you actually “building community”, or are you just accruing social and monetary capital under those terms as a disguise?
