Alas I don’t want to run anything except a university degree program

Frankfurt AirPort is thoroughly broken . People needed to load baggage don’t show up for hours, delaying planes through the next day.
Trains between terminals travel irregularly.
Years of lack of investment have turned it into a third world airport,

One of the best pieces on Ukraine I have read anywhere on how France and Germany have approached the issue of arms to Ukraine since the war began.

This is *the* question. And failing an adequate answer the current embarassing situation will haunt the nation for decades.
RT @ACEurasia: Where are the Russian protests against the invasion of Ukraine? asks @MTemnycky.
"Public support for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has declined slightly since the start of the war, but the majority continue to support it," he writes in @_EmergingEurope.

Precisely, @davidfrum
RT @davidfrum: "Will you migrate to Post, Mastodon, or somewhere else?" seems to me the wrong question. For me, the highest value of Twitter is hearing directly from people engaged in freedom struggle against Russia, in Iran, in Chinese-speaking lands. Where do THEY go? How will I follow THEM?

If you want to know why Estonians find Ukrainians such a delightful change from the Russians who came to colonize the country during the occupation, read this.
These observations btw are from a Russian living here, not a "russophobe"
RT @peedutuisk: How some Russian-speakers who live in Estonia and support Putin think like, an interesting insight from a person who used to live in Narva, Estonia.
Typical entitled, imperialistic attitudes and common propaganda lie…

.@DarthPutinKGB too is another account I regularly rt and respond to, that's been missing for a while from my timeline. Is @twitter downgrading/shadow banning critics of Russian genocide?
RT @DarthPutinKGB: How it works with events like #Bucha
1. It never happened.
2. They were all Nazis so deserved what didn't happen
3. They were crisis actors
4. What didn't happen to all the Nazis who deserved it/crisis actors who pretended was on the site of a biolab.
5. What …

For some reason @noclador, whose analytical tweets I often rt, and whom I recommend to follow, has long been absent in my timeline. Indeed I only noticed this when we were both named by third account.
At the same time I get all kinds of crap on my timeline.
What's up with that?
RT @noclador: Any Serbian troops crossing into Kosovo will be returned the next day stiff, stacked, and stale.

Everyone who votes for this should never again be allowed into Europe or the wider West.
Each and everyone of them aids, abets and exculpates war criminals.

The Russian State Duma conducted the first reading of a law that will eliminate criminal liability for crimes in occupied territories if they were committed in the interests of the Russian Federation. https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/russian-offensive-campaign-assessment-december-15
