@rchusid The headline does not match Zakaria's editorial. And his conclusion is muddy. His last phrase, "letting Ukraine get destroyed in order to save it," can only be understood as failing to give Ukraine the weapons it needs to drive the Russians out of its territory. His "on paper" peace plan is purely imaginary until the Russians show some interest in ending the conflict, which to date they decidedly have not done. So there is no path to ending the war by negotiation.

Blue Jay

This photo is slightly out of focus. The bird flew off as I was trying to photograph it and I just managed to capture its image in the bottom left corner of the frame.

Even out of focus, it's a pretty photo of a blue jay in flight.

{"In comparison to other birds, Blue Jays fly quite slowly at 20 to 25 miles per hour. Ducks can fly at about 60 miles per hour, so in comparison, Blue Jays’ flight is leisurely." - birdfeederhub.com

On February 26, 1936, a coup d'état was initiated by a young Imperialist army officer who led non-commissioned officers and soldiers with the aim of political reform by force. He killed Minoru Saito, the Minister of the Interior, Korekiyo Takahashi, the Minister of Finance, Jotaro Watanabe, and others, and occupied the area around the Diet Building and the prime minister's official residence. Martial law was promulgated in Tokyo the next day, and was suppressed on the 29th. #Japan #1936 #226

Reading about environmental disasters for a thing I'm writing and I learned about a chemical spill in a place called Love Canal. Caused by the Hooker Chemical Co. This all just sounds like a horribly bad joke.

"Can you explain this gap in your resume?"

Yes. Life is about more than constant and meaningless toil for 40-50 years and a desolate twilight of failed ambitions. The social contract is broken and the system is a lie. You and I are both trapped in the same Sisyphean hell, where no amount working harder or longer will ever truly grant the rewards we were promised. The real question is, why are there no gaps in YOUR resume?

Errr, freelancing. I was freelancing.
