During the British Hostage negotiations and the Doha Conferences around Afghanistan, I wrote extensively on substack, also in support of UN Special Envoys. Although, throughout the last year, I've worked heavily in and around the ceasefire and hostage crisis. Discussion of

Unpopular opinion: we all died during Covid and this is hell.

Cooked. We are.

I don’t know how you can hate AI video when it gives us new meme formats like “cat electrician”

If you can't see the rendition of helicopters approaching - not sure what to tell you?
