Day 320-ish
More, better NODS, please
Ongoing battles at night in and around Bakhmut and Soledar in eastern Ukraine again demonstrate how ENVG-Bs make pest control much more safe and efficient. So, keep sending night vision gear, especially thermal NODS and other contraptions12. Kudos to the boys and girls at Techiia Foundation and ATN for being proactive and concluding the deal before the crypto crash3.
In other news, I came across this annoying paragraph in an op-ed published on January 9, 2022 by Foreign Affairs, titled “The Long War. The West Needs to Plan for a Protracted Conflict With Russia.”
About two thirds of the way through this smug, precious, longwinded yet toweringly unresolved argument – through which Foreign Policy hacks continue to assert in dainty rhetorical strokes that only one legitimate form of engagement, i.e. Russia containment, remains, that being the sort favored by the cold-eyed strategists of the next American empire; so chipper, so blithely cruel – I concluded that nothing in this life would give me greater pleasure than to sock Ivo and James in the jaw.
