there are lots of good causes, but here one I really like -- local activists in #Rustavi taking care of the floodplains close to the river, cleaning up, replanting, volunteeers -- they seek to fund their next year, a truly good thing. Check it out here. I pitched in a tiny bit,.

this is an Azerbaijani government initiative that lots of good people can get behind!! .Credit where it is due, hope there is some follow-thru. @HikmetHajiyev .(Königsberg we don't need, feeds wrong sentiment, but everything else would be grand.).
Azerbaijan threatens Russia with using non-Russian names for toponyms:.1. Königsberg for Kaliningrad (German).2. Orınbor for Orenburg (Kazakh).3. Sarısu for Volgograd .4. Sölƶa-Ġala for Grozny (Chechen).5. Sujuk Kale for Novorossiysk.6. Toyohara for Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk (Japanese).

it took a quarter century, but eventually (some) justice for those who let themselves be bought by the corrupt regime in Azerbaijan. In my view, still too lenient, because these corrupt politicians distracted from how the regime plunders & mistreats the people of #Azerbaijan.
Summary of the verdict in the #Azerbaijan corruption case:.- Former PACE member sentenced to 9 months' probation.- Husband of deceased PACE member Karin Strenz must repay €111,000.- Proceedings against former PACE member Axel Fischer have been separated

#JustinTimberlake is coming to Tbilisi on a GD sponsored event on July 23 to project normality & how cool regime is. Young Georgians launched petition to get @jtimberlake to speak up against repression (many dozens in jail, incl artists) -- not to cancel the event. Good

had to re-read to get this, but this is the tweet of the day. #Georgia.
I believed the graph on X showing that Georgians are not Europeans and went to the sea in the middle of the day like any brown Asian man would and got my white ass second degree burns. Sorry Mr Zurab Zhvania for doubting you ✊.

while thousands of Georgian pupils sit for their exams, held to high standards of honesty, the new Minister of Education fibbed about having a doctorate -- one also mentioned by the Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze in his introduction to the people of #Georgia. In any normal.
Made a mini-scoop for @OCMediaorg. The newly appointed Georgian Minister of Education did not complete his PhD studies, despite the PM Kobakhidze claiming so.
