Really just a thought, “boy, if Putin wanted an out to this shitshow, that would be one way to do it.” Of course, he’s going to just keep doubling down on a losing position.
I was sort of hoping, but not really expecting, that Putin might announce they lost the referendum, giving him an excuse to withdraw from Ukraine and end the war. Would’ve been nice.

re: #10 Charles Johnson
Be a good time for someone to post that NYT article about how Hitler is going to moderate his views now that he is in office.
Because exposing your balls to IR wasn’t weird enough.
Sorry in advance if you’re eating breakfast, but the perineum (AKA the “gooch”) is the area between the pubic bone and the anal cavity. For some, sunning this area (also known as “perineum sunning”) for at least three minutes at a time apparently creates a surge in energy equivalent to “walking around in the sun all day”, “recharging” or “having a cup of coffee”. And with #perinuemsunning currently getting over 2.7 million views on TikTok, it’s not even particularly niche as a “wellness” trend.
But why? What exactly is going on? Why are so many people spreading their legs and allowing the sun to blast UV directly into their butts? It’s time to get to the bottom of the internet’s favourite new kick.
“It honestly feels really good to have the warmth of the sun shining down there,” explains Abushady, a TikTok user and regular gooch sunner based in New York. “It’s a feeling you can’t really describe unless you experience it. It’s like the sunlight fills your being from the bottom up.” Abushady tells me that his body and mind were exposed to the joys of perineum sunning while living in India and spending hours in the sun practicing yoga.
“When coming back home to stay in Pennsylvania, I would go out into the sun with my yoga mat completely naked and do my practices for two to three hours,” he continues. “Certain poses mean the entire body is exposed, such as a headstand or happy baby pose. I’m not really intentionally going out just to sun my anus - it’s more about being free.”
But what about sunburn? Surely this is asking for the ring of fire? “I don’t worry about sunburn, because I live a lifestyle and eat foods that protect my skin from the inside out,” he says.
“Some people might scoff at this, but a phrase that I like to say is: ‘the sun burns you for your sins’. The reason people get burnt is because, a) they simply don’t expose themselves to the sun often enough so haven’t built a tolerance and, b) they live such a toxic lifestyle that their blood is toxic and out of tune with nature, so it reacts with the sun creating a ‘burn’ I intentionally live and eat in such a way that I can be in the sun for hours without sunscreen and not get burned.”
Sounds legit, lol.

And again, the Eleanor Roosevelt quote—
“I have the feeling that we let our consciences realize too late the need of standing up against something that we knew was wrong. We have therefore had to avenge it, but we did nothing to prevent it. I hope that in the future, we are going to remember that there can be no compromise at any point with the things that we know are wrong.”

Economic sanctions wouldn’t have worked (Scandinavia and the Soviets had too much to sell) and both nations were militarily too weak. The real reason for Munich was to give the UK time to build up it’s military forces. It was just barely enough time.
William L. Shirer, in his magisterial The Collapse of the Third Republic (1969) postulates a different inflection point for affecting the future course of WWII in Europe (three points, actually: Munich was the third). The second point, in Shirer’s analysis, was March 6-7, 1936: the feeble French (and British) reaction to Hitler’s “remilitarization” of the Rhineland - where he simply paraded troops in behind marching bands (with virtually no weapons). The Brits were content to merely sputter: the French were outraged, but their military establishment screwed the pooch: faced with an unexpected, and unprecedented situation, their only plan (delivered late) was basically a general mobilization for a massive war - which nobody wanted: and was, in any case, a bad response to a fait accompli.
Munich was a different situation: but few practical lessons had been learned in any case.

In a nutshell, Russia’s been playing a very long game in the region through its involvement within Israel’s hostile neighbors, and has been forcing Israel for years to play nice and bow to Moscow’s whims or suffer the consequences. Israel’s reluctance to openly object Russia’s actions since the start of the invasion was a direct result of that and additional factors. Not the case today.

If Russia has weakened so much that its decades-long threats such as providing advanced weapon systems to Assad in Syria and Hezbollah in Lebanon (instead of “regular” systems Israel isn’t concerned about) no longer work, then it’s in a bad spot indeed.
