That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence. 証拠なしに主張できることは、証拠なしに退けることができる。
Incredible claims require incredible evidence. 信じがたい主張には、信じがたい証拠が必要である。
It’s immediately clear that Putin is slow-walking the US proposal for a 30-day ceasefire in Ukraine. He has no intention of accepting the proposal, but Putin needs to avoid saying “no” directly to Trump.
And he needs only a few days to invent a provocation that makes the proposal unacceptable.
Well, this is interesting. Curious whether he can stand reelection as a #forward candidate.

The purpose of efforts to study (the non-existent) links between #vaccines and #autism is to run multiple small studies with poor controls, then terminate early and publicize those that demonstrate the desired outcomes. #badscience

The Trump administration is negotiating with Ukraine in bad faith. US will not under any circumstance restore arms shipments and intelligence sharing, or do anything to improve the security of Ukraine whatever steps Ukraine takes.
Uh oh. February 2025 leak of corporate customers. Responsible party unknown.

I am wondering. Will Trump’s State of the Union Address will be delivered in its native Russian?
OH: A castle won’t turn a clown into a king.

As the US unravels into #oligarchy, economic decline and political chaos, #ukraine and Zelenskyy are now the leaders of the free world.
Welcome to the end of Pax Americana.
It’s shocking how much the US has come to resemble book 3 of Atlas Shrugged. Eg. using political pull to reward allies and punish rivals. Actions that make no sense except as spectacle for the voters.
The #google monopoly has been the Internet’s greatest threat to #privacy and #security for two decades. I am sad it took a couple ill-advised map updates to make the at least one segment of the population to realize the threat. But at least they finally came around.
So TikTok will be banned in China by the CCP to prevent spying by the US government, and the value of the network will decline even faster than Xitter?
I cannot name a single ancestor, person, or cultural work that lived or was created in the year 1025.
I dare say in the year none will exist: the English language, the USA or any current nation state, the Internet, or knowledge of today’s most famous people outside a small group of historians.
We’re down there with the shitholes now.. #climatechange 

Better than anything I wrote:
“The operational status of our IT general controls reflects a robust and active framework, with significant improvements achieved in 2024 and strategic enhancements planned for 2025 to ensure continued alignment with organizational goals and security requirements.”
Rule of law fails because we don’t want to believe it can fail.
