Putin recently said, “I agree in principle in a cease-fire.”
That’s a brilliant PR and propaganda coup. It also has a very pragmatic, realistic purpose. He said this, damn well knowing Zhelensky and the Ukrainians and the Brits and the US have so many hurdles to get through until they can achieve a cease-fire that what Putin has ultimately done is give the Russian army carte blnache to continue capturing key territory for as long as it takes for the West to get its act together or the Ukrainian army collapses, whichever comes first. My money is on a mid-summer collapse.
. One certainly has to wonder how an economics buffoon like Navarro can produce so much bullshit in just eight minutes. Impressive indeed!

The casting of a new Doctor for Doctor Who has some unspoken rules that the tabloids and fans often miss or ignore, but they're really simple.
A state court seat is not for sale, lawmakers tackle surveillance pricing, journalists won’t be silenced, and states ban political deepfakes.
Eight years ago Lance Ulanoff had a problem. William Shatner could not find him on Mastodon.
His distress is understandable, relatable even. Who wouldn’t want to be found by Captain Kirk himself! The way he dealt with that feeling of distress, however, was something different. He came to the conclusion that because Captain Kirk could not find him, Mastodon can’t survive.
You see, Lance Ulanoff, like most journalists writing about technology, understands tech. Like, really understands it. As an award-winning tech journalist and former Editor in Chief at PCMag-dot-com he knows the ins and outs of all corporate tech stacks. As I write this, the four latest pieces of his in TechRadar are pushing Microsoft hype like there is no tomorrow. All four published within the last two days.
That is the level of journalistic excellence and rate of creative output I know I could never even dream to attain.

Hell is not a lake of fire, nor is it composed of the circles Dante envisioned, like an infant’s stacking toy.
It’s not “The Bad Place” of sitcom fame, though it’s easy to imagine some in the current administration taking notes on hot dog torture and butthole spiders.
It’s not the Hellmouth, nor is it one of the dark parallel universes in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, as much as some of us want to believe we’ve shifted into an alternate reality.
Hell is as foundational as smallpox blankets and pedophile priests, as petty as a MAGA-festooned pickup that “rolls coal” on a passing Prius.

Sällan eller aldrig har man anledning vara nöjd med ekonomijournalistiken i press, radio och television. Ytterst få ekonomijournalister och börsanalytiker tar sitt jobb på allvar och bedriver ekonomisk journalistik värd namnet. De flesta av oss har därför sedan länge gett upp. Synd bara att allmänheten ska behöva nöja sig med det tyckmyckentrutade nonsens som helt […]
