I'm so sorry, @SecRubio. I can see your pain. Please consider stepping down and preserving your political future. You have dignity and integrity - two things that can't be bought.
Zelenskyy has aged similar to how Lincoln was described as having aged during the Civil War
I just cannot fathom the strain.
He is the greatest world leader alive right now.
Every single person who still cringes at the memory of trying to bullshit their way through an interview or exam question: today, the slate is wiped clean. Set down your burden of shame. Nothing - nothing, I say - could touch this.
Having pets is cool because wdym the universe said:
“Here’s a tiny soul in a fur suit. You’re responsible for each other now. Plus he gets to live rent free, supervise your bathroom visits judge you and share your snacks”.
The most dangerous symptom of approaching ADHD burnout is actually a sudden burst of hyperfocus. Here is how your brain tricks you into a total system crash.
Last week, I stayed up until 3:00 AM researching a random topic, reorganizing my entire kitchen, and mapping out a five-year life plan. I felt unstoppable. I felt like I had finally cracked the code to my own productivity. But hyperfocus isn't free energy. It is a high-interest loan taken out against your future stamina.
When your dopamine is low, your brain will occasionally panic and dump its remaining reserves all at once to get a quick fix of achievement. It feels like a breakthrough, but it is actually a final flare before the engine dies completely. The next morning, you don't just feel tired; you feel physically heavy, mentally blank, and emotionally detached.
If you just came off a massive wave of hyperfocus and suddenly feel like you can't even lift your arms, stop beating yourself up. You didn't lose your motivation overnight. You just spent a week's worth of cognitive currency in six hours. The debt has to be paid, and the only currency your brain accepts right now is absolute rest.
Scientists confirm that ADHD adults who run on chronic anxiety are using cortisol as a primary activation chemistry. The body was not built to run on stress hormones as fuel. Decades of thriving under pressure was a chemistry workaround. The crash that comes in your 50s is the receipt.
Im Jahr 2022 – in der Nacht, bevor die Russen in die Ukraine einmarschierten – wurde ihm geraten zu fliehen.
Darauf antwortete Selenskyj:
„Ich brauche Munition, keine Mitfahrgelegenheit.“
Dieser Satz wird als ein Sinnbild der Widerstandskraft in die Geschichte eingehen.

The Ukrainian decision to double down on drone warfare, from the battlefield, to mid range and long range strike, and not to draft all of its young men to make infantry, will be seen by historians as one of the most important decisions in 19th-21st century warfare.
