Some stuff you should be watching:
- China / Taiwan
- Russia / Ukraine
- Epstein deletions and findings
- Minneapolis
- Strait of Hormuz politics and economics
- Lebanon
- SAVE act and obviously related passport and ID invalidation hijinks. And postal service hijinks
- OS level age validation
@hacks4pancakes great list. Here's one more item that isn't getting enough attention: Sudan's famine and civil war. (Admittedly, this has less global impact, but it is among the worst suffering in the world right now.)

@adamhotep @hacks4pancakes I agree with you, but endless iteration over the list of immense suffering in the world is a quick path towards depression, and then nothingness
@codinghorror @hacks4pancakes While this is true, I worry about the trumpery in the news these days, like how the US has reached a new and dangerous level of ADHD; we invaded two nations simply to distract from the Epstein files.
(Yes, trumpery.) #uspol
