@ThatchEffendi It seems to be unusually mild this year, averaging in the mid-20s in recent weeks (so I'm told).

My podcast with Vitalii Shtybin on Etnografiya. https://t.co/8df9m7owU1

@gvbrdghvnian A public event for which I was moderator. Since then we use 2 moderators for hybrid events, one for the online audience and one for in-person. Otherwise it's too much for one person to keep track of.

@gvbrdghvnian For the record, the 'bullying' and 'harassing' referred to here was a single comment from an online audience
member in a zoom chat on screen during a hybrid in-person public event.

@ThatchEffendi Which kind of ajika, specifically?

[Timothy Blauvelt @V_Caucasologist]

@ThatchEffendi Yeah, but the Weisswurst . . .

[Timothy Blauvelt @V_Caucasologist]

@bryan_gigantino Yes, though as a mutual friends observes, Ivan's 'figures are all over the place. “Received funding,” “were funded,” “couldn’t survive without these grants”—all these statements mean different things.'

@ThisIsAndro @Mikiashvili_M And the Dardubala episode where Shevy gets stuck in the elevator in the chancellery and is wheeled in it to an official meeting with another failed state president who is also stuck in his own elevator ;-)

@ianbremmer This was not at a protest, it was during the raid on the party's office today.

@onewmphoto Perhaps then best to refrain from attributing emotive labels until one is more sure? The world is watching, and this will feed into narratives.
