Turns out that poor US soldier who got arrested in Russia has a story. https://www.rferl.org/a/russia-gordon-black-arrested-tiktok-girlfriend-south-korea/32936746.html

Here’s the question: why didn’t anyone notice he was running off the rails?

Exclusive: The TikTok Trail Of The U.S. Soldier Arrested In Russia Left By His Russian 'Wife'

A Russian woman who described U.S. soldier Gordon Black as her "husband" posted numerous videos of the couple together in South Korea, giving a glimpse of their relationship before he became the latest American citizen arrested by Russian authorities.

Popping in after another absence. To share tonight’s musical journey. Watched the Eurovision semifinal on VLE from Finland. Some amazing productions. Ireland and Croatia got my vote. Metaphorically.

That reminded me I hadn’t listened to Otyken in awhile https://youtu.be/W7lwVHNkoyw?si=X_HvtIONShkKhBcH

And they always lead me back to the Hu

Russia is going to be investing hundreds of millions of dollars in our election this year, as the best way to invade Ukraine.

Just a reminder that the US Air Force forced Chobani to change their yogurt formula to not contain any hemp seeds because some military people ate it, and if you’re not a white billionaire guy they’re that strict about something that might have contained something you could potentially have made pot out of but didn’t and in some alternate universe might trip a drug test.

In recent years, some executives and board members at his companies and others close to the billionaire have developed a persistent concern that there is another component driving his behavior: his use of drugs. And they fear his drug use could have major consequences. https://www.wsj.com/business/elon-musk-illegal-drugs-e826a9e1?st=41yhnt3q3ll01rz&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink

This is how we wash and freshen our rag rugs in #finland in the #winter. #tip #suomimastodon
It's important to leave the rag rug for a while outside before you wash it with the snow. It must be cold so it doesn't get wet. The snow doesn't melt.
