Professional cynic. The cup is twice as big as it needs to be. Staunch anti-theist. I believe "scientism" is an excellent way to live. Evidence-based progressive. Proudly nerdy. Middle-aged, white, euro-male with an excellent education, trying to use my privilege for good. Pet-parent to two wonderful huskies named Layla and Cheekoo.

Trump's "peace plan" for #Ukraine is really about the #US and #Russia gutting it like a trout. And kicking the #EU in the balls to boot. It's demeaning, insulting, and malevolent. IOW, classic Trump/Putin.
