How Russian propaganda works abroad, in one sentence per layer:

For the right: "Russia defends tradition." For the left: "NATO caused this." For the pacifist: "Weapons prolong war." For the cynic: "Everyone lies equally." For the tired: "It's complicated."

Five contradictory messages, one output: do nothing.

Russian propaganda doesn't need you to love Moscow. It needs you paralyzed — and it has a script for whichever ideology you brought to the table.

Whenever a take ends in "therefore, inaction," check the return address.

Contrary to many EU-doomsayers, I predict the EU will rapidly reemerge over the next decades as the most advanced and powerful regional power on the planet. On one condition: that we defend it.
Here’s why. Very long thread:

Ukraine gives up its nuclear weapons for US Security Guarantees.

Foreshadowing.

[Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen]

We will introduce “made in Europe” criteria for public procurement in certain strategic sectors.

Ensure that new foreign investments in our industry are truly in Europe’s interest.

And step up support for strategic industries, like cars and batteries

[Roberta Metsola @EP_President]

The @Europarl_EN hearings of the new @EU_Commission Commissioners-designate will take place between 4 and 12 November.

With a mandate given by European citizens, MEPs will ask, assess, scrutinise and vote.

This is European democracy 🇪🇺

There’s two sides, but only one that represents real change in this election: Kamala Harris

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

Cats! Dogs! Geese! Laura Loomer! Look, now he’s attacking Taylor!

Like the last season before a show gets canceled for getting over-the-top and, at the same time, boring.

This election is about jobs, wages, climate, health care, abortion. Not his show. Your life.

not kidding at all when I say that the model that Doug Emhoff is setting for men to be powerfully, joyfully supportive of their spouses will have lasting cultural implications

This is Manuel, an usher at the European Parliament.

But what exactly do ushers do? They make sure meetings run smoothly, so that members of Parliament can focus on their job.

Take a look and find out for yourself!

Microsoft says meeting time has TRIPLED since 2020: typical workers are spending 57% of their time communicating [meetings, calls] with others: 'Today, knowledge work is, quantitatively speaking, less about creating new things than it is about talking about those things.’

"Music when we were growing up was the best. Everything these days is so terrible."

Turns out across every single generation, quality of music peaks at age 17 and you begin to start hating any music made after you're 35.

The Nostalgia Effect is powerful!
