The confessions of the perpetrators in Moscow sound familiar, in the same way hits are organized in the Netherlands, using Telegram, cuit-outs, expendable people.

The great reorganization of Germany in 1803, the last act of the Holy Roman Empire before its abolition, is often seen as the traumatic result of Napoleon's overwhelming defeat of various German armies and his gobbling-up of the Rhine. But the damage had in many ways been done much earlier with the partitions of Poland [and Lithuania]. Looked at now, these seem pieces of insanity. It had been clear, if surprising, since the early eighteenth century and the victories of Peter the Great that Russia was to be as big a factor in European politics as Britain (both countries flanking Europe and, in their different ways, impervious to normal attack). It should have been in everyone's interest to keep Poland as a cheerful, thriving buffer, but instead, for careless, short-term reasons the Prussians, Austrians and Russians carved Poland into non-existence. Aside from the rights of the Poles to an ancient and, for centuries, highly successful state, this international piracy meant that Germans and Russians now shared a border — an issue that was to define international politics until Soviet tanks arrived in Berlin in 1945.

'The North Carolina State Senate on Wednesday voted in favor of a Republican bill that would make it illegal for people in the state to wear a mask in public for health reasons.
The proposed ban on health-based masking is part of a larger bill otherwise aimed at increasing penalties for people wearing masks to conceal their identity while committing a crime or impeding traffic, spurred by recent protests on campuses across the country against the war in Gaza.'

There were several reasons why teens in the 70s and 80s had problems. Chief among them was that they were infantilized.
So in the 90s and 00s they decided that the solution to the problem was to double down on the infantilization. Which of course made everything much worse.

Y’ know what? One of the reasons I love bicycles is that they defy categorization the same way people do (and for some of the same reasons)
Mountain bike? Road bike? Oh yes the two genders.
Gravel bike. BMX bike. Commuter. Fat bike. Folding.
Most of the parts can be mixed and matched.
Brands just sell what they make usually. Generally kinda following the type but also fully making each mode and brand a little individual.
So what’s the difference between a gravel bike and a hybrid road bike? I could list a dozen subtle points but which a given bike has may well vary. All so very arguable and contextual. I love it. They’re just so inherently human systems. Deeply technical too, but in ways where it combines into axes of freedom rather than strict categories.

Just an average day.
I had a narrow change of trains. Most of the way, my train arrived before schedule.
Just ahead of Poznań, we had to pass a delayed InterCity through, and we ended up arriving with delay, so I ran for the change.
It turned out that I ran unnecessarily, since the change was delayed as well, because of another delayed InterCity. Then it caught even more delay, for other reasons.
When I finally arrived home, I had to wait in front of the railroad crossing… for the next train from Poznań. So, I've effectively saved something around 30 seconds by taking the earlier train, but ended up standing an extra minute in the rain.
I'm a master of planning.
