OTD in 2022 I gave Emmanuel Macron my personal assurances that I would not invade Ukraine.

So you can trust any promise we make now.

I’ve skied up Ararat (5137m) 🥵🥶

When you’ve happily practised an obscure pastime for decades whose sole purpose is to enable you to get to mountain areas with few if any other people, it’s a nightmare to see it be promoted like this. 🙄

If you don’t like my posts, remember: my staff writes them, and I have no intention of apologizing.

Internal White House meetings going on, like, "Hopefully the racism will distract from the pedophilia which will distract from the killings which will distract from the pedophilia again which will distract from the economy which will distract from the pedophilia a third time"

This is not only brazenly corrupt. It is sick, twisted and egomaniacal. The time is long overdue for sane Republicans to stand up to Trump.

A reminder that we have 73% of his term still to run.

"you said I could join in"

one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things

To get beyond Trumpian nonsense about Greenland and talk about what is *really* going on with Arctic security it was my great pleasure to speak to Professor Klaus Dodds. Have a listen👇

we all remember the massive protests from the past month of people holding handmade signs that say Build Safeguards Into The System

EU plan to share data with US border force sparks surveillance fears Washington is demanding access to sensitive data as ICE heightens fears in Europe.

🚨🚨Given current situation and with the sharply deteriorating situation in #trumpland, I think it is unwise, imprudent and just a very bad idea for the EU to go ahead with plans to grant #US border authorities unprecedented access to Europeans’ data. 🧵

I feel like that Korean expert with the little girl in yellow bursting in.

always bears repeating that this is NOT a financial decision. jeff bezos is worth over 250 billion dollars. he can afford to lose many millions and never even notice it. this is, at its core, a political and personal decision by bezos to destroy the post

By coincidence re-read today FT Helen Warrell’s magazine article on artic warfare training (published in April ‘25) and this was a perfect chaser. Great episode as usual - please follow if you haven’t already 👇🏻👌🏻

Thank you! my new book (out in March) has me narrating the audiobook!

Your home-commute listen sorted.

Absolutely fascinating look at Arctic Security. Honestly, I would have to read several hours worth of pieces to get one-tenth of this insight.

@snellarthur.bsky.social's podcast is an absolute gem.

Thank you 🙏

If you’re saturated with Epstein news, get your ears around this fascinating deep dive into all things Arctic circle significance. 🎧👇

Often overlooked in debates about geopolitical developments. Following the topic for nearly 2 decades now, I’m happy to see that the Arctic finally gets more attention. 👇

I think a significant part of any school's OFSTED rating should relate to how easily you can find the term dates on their website.

Remember France locked up Telegram creator Pavel Durov when he landed in Paris and indicted him for Telegram's lax approach to child safety. They do not fuck around over there.
