Yup, just a massive brawl in itself, not crippling to either side-but Kursk/Zitadelle does matter, because it was followed by a permanent shift in initiative on the Eastern Front (and it was the last time Axis power held initiative in WW2, brief interlude of the Ardennes offensive notwithstanding).
The world’s in a gangsterish state, with Trump, Putin & Xi turning dependencies into protection rackets. That’s a dilemma for candidates to be next UN Sec. General. How to defend basic norms without crossing the veto-wielding bullies of the Security Council? My column economist.com/internationa...
Al Capone would recognise today’s world order. That’s not good

Cheese (soft) porn, and *white* cheese to boot! (Probably better not to think too deeply about this „daring secret” ingredient).
Happy 12th anniversary of the day Kim Jong Un visited the lube factory.
I am going to be spending the rest of my day and possibly my week thinking about "Werner the Herzog" and quite frankly it's the last thing I needed

Even Black Holes Can Get Indigestion. Unsurprisingly, Their Farts Are ‘Massive’ Expulsions of Gas
A high-res movie of a black hole’s “meal” suggests that it’s less a bottomless pit than it is a complex digestive system.

Somewhat unexpected poster for a tv series about the East German secret police. Oh, it’s a double S you say? (Btw tagline for this would have worked for a series about Stasi too).
Modern economic infrastructure can have these very vulnerable nodes, with visual impact for Russian civilian morale being an added bonus. I wonder if targeting choice was made mainly by humans or identified by those Palantir AI tools that Ukraine uses for their deep strike campaign coordination.
