    USA Politics

    Honestly, I am really pissed at the majority of new channels and the keyboard warriors on social media. Let's be honest, the world was given a great chance in the early 1990s to move past this shit and it totally fucked it up. US Presidents (GOP or Dems) and the EU turning a blind eye to...

    Russia invades Ukraine

    I do think this time they do not have years. Unlike previous incursions in Chechnya, Georgia, Crimea, etc I do not think the West will just accept this and throw up some generally toothless sanctions. I do not think the Russian people or Oligarchs will be thrilled going back to Soviet style...

    Russia invades Ukraine

    Yeah ... that is kinda what the news is saying ... massive logistic problems being at the forefront. I want to take nothing away from the Ukrainian Army who have no doubt been fighting bravely (and citizens in general either actively participating or supporting the army) .. but the Russians...

    Russia invades Ukraine

    I think Russia has been exposed a bit as a paper tiger. They still obviously have nukes and a ton of equipment, but I think we should be hearing an end of "where will Russia go next" .. They moved 3 km in 24 hours in Ukraine. State of the Union is tomorrow, I suspect Biden will announce some...

    The Ruble is essentially worth toilet paper today (Non Covid hoarding prices that is)

    US needs to close its airspace as well. This is not the time to hold anything back

    Russia invades Ukraine

    Honestly at this point I think NATO should ask for membership in Ukraine

    Russia invades Ukraine

    I think it means they are worried about energy from Russia

    Russia invades Ukraine

    Obviously the Ukranians, the Ukranian leadership are putting on an inspiring kind of bravery that certainly has moved me and I suspect the vast majority of the world. I would add the Russians that are out there protesting this as well. I am also glad the World is seeing the Russian government...

    Russia invades Ukraine

    I suspect it is an attemtp to buy them time to resupply. The Ukranians should certainly talk with them on the off chance there is a chance to end this, but the west needs to keep pumping in every single weapon and humanitarian supplies they can. I feel some sympathy for the Russian soldiers...

    That sucks .. I liked his music. His work with Queens of the Stone Age and the Screaming Trees albums were quite good

    European Politics

    Sanctions post-Crimea clearly did not do a lot of good. I do think the West should provide Ukraine with what it can as far as equipment, but the only sanctions that will really work is to stop buying energy and raw materials from Russia. Real recent reports are that the breakaway regions are...

    I would be really happy with a setlist anything close to that. I assume there will be a song or two from his most recent album, which I should listen to ahead of time. Concert is May 17 .. so have time

    I am sure it will be a really good show. I am declaring this a company event and can at least write the tickets off (bringing my accountant .. who happens to be my wife)

    European Politics

    Probably . but realistically that is some time off and has been for a while. LNG more friendly countries would have been a nice bridge. For sure, shutting down the nuclear plants was a major mistake without a replacement in place
