Time for a walk and an episode of Blowback.

It's not that I really need to go through the whole modern history of Afghanistan again - I've read so many different takes on US/Soviet complicity in the region's struggles already - but I do enjoy the return to history in general, when we as a species demonstrate so little ability to remember what's happened even a few months ago, let alone to put it into practice when making sense of the world today.

(To each their own weird hobbies, I suppose! 🙃)
