Very interesting thread. Anecdotal, at this stage, but hopefully there will be a scientific study on chronic brain impact (damage) due to covid. (Brain fog, cognitive disorders, increased aggression, etc)
My psychologist friend: Have you noticed how many people seem to have brain damage lately? Like, literal cognitive decline and behavioral or personality changes? Am noticing it everywhere, even in my longtime patients.
Another exhausting round of "Ukraine can't win" from people who clearly are not watching the same war as I am. Ukraine can win, as long as it continues to receive heavy weaponry, continues outsourcing its war economy to the West, and crippling economic sanctions on Russia remain.
“A defeated former president who was at the center of a failed coup allegedly walks out the door with nuclear secrets, refuses to give them back and then leaves a creepy, semi-threatening message for the attorney general — that’s apparently where we are.” washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/…
CEO of the Calgary Chamber of Commerce comes out swinging against @ABDanielleSmith’s worst idea yet.
The Alberta Sovereignty Act would also cause significant investment uncertainty, translate into capital being invested in other jurisdictions and have a negative on the Alberta economy. It's the last thing this province needs. We need to attract investment, not scare it away.

Real history is not "elitist." Also, 'History shows that fake populism and anti-intellectualism — with, as a byproduct, targeting independent thought — are necessary ingredients of an authoritarian takeover.' From the great @seanwilentz washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/…

Why presidents of both parties meet with historians.
Serbia is helping Russia beat sanctions - why is the EU not doing more to prevent this?
Are you a Western company that can’t work in Russia because of sanctions? No worries, you can evade sanctions via Serbia. Between 30,000 & 50,000 Russians have moved to Serbia. And more than 1,000 companies have registered…most of them in the IT sector. dw.com/en/russians-ar…
