Russia's attempt to bully/blockade the Black Sea going great. Not for them.

At least six ships have flaunted Russia’s threats after it withdrew from the grain deal, and an Israeli one was the first to enter the Ukrainian branch of the Danube. A US P8 anti-ship aircraft is ensuring their safety.

Six ways that AI could change politics
Bruce Schneier and Nathan E. Sanders
"We can draw some fairly straight lines between the current capabilities of AI tools and real-world outcomes that, by the standards of current public understanding, seem truly startling...we propose six milestones that will herald a new era of democratic politics driven by AI..."
(Schneier's worth reading imho)

We're witnessing next-level strategic global politics. Learning so much from Putin's 5D chess game. I'm sure the reunification step happens soon!
Wow this didn't go the way I expected given the headline:
10 states plan to sue EPA over standards for residential wood-burning stoves
"programs that encourage people to trade in older stoves and other wood-burning appliances, such as forced-air furnaces, haven’t necessarily improved air quality"
States want more/better regulation?! That's a thing?

Good Ol' Prison
Black denied a request that Householder be allowed to report to prison. Instead, two U.S. Marshals handcuffed Householder behind his back and escorted him out of court with his family watching from the front row.
Householder expressed no remorse for leading an extensive bribery scheme at the Ohio Statehouse....

"ongoing crisis in Russia is predictable and inevitable... Moscow’s imperial campaign for new lands in Ukraine only exacerbated Russia’s internal problems." --Ukrainian Deputy Defense Minister Hanna Maliar
"Everyone who chooses the path of evil destroys themselves. Russia has relied on propaganda to mask its weakness but now there is so much chaos that no lie can hide it.”
-- Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky
Iran says, mmmm sounds like a _you_ problem.

Meanwhile has anyone seen Lavrov? Is he okay?

Q: ...conflict between Yevgeny Prigozhin, the owner of the Wagner Group, and the Russian Minister of Defence Sergey Shoigu has been unfolding over the last couple of weeks.
A: This is definitely to our advantage, let's just say, in any case. The more quarrels and serious conflicts they have within the system, the faster our victory will come.
And I am ready to help both at the same time. Only for them to destroy each other (smiles). --Budanov, Feb '23

People in Rostov strolling by soldiers in firing positions. Chutzpah? Blindness?
Seems to me Jonathan Pie doesn't much like Boris Johnson.

Call to action w/hope and steps to combat fascism include:
"Stop spreading panic on social media. It does nothing and adds nothing to drown in a sea of everyday negativity. For some reason, Americans are obsessed with raising awareness, as if problems magically go away when people find out about them. I’d rather we be obsessed with raising barricades. Or money."
