The most noble thing a person can do is plant a tree they will not sleep under.
Yes, build your world so you thrive in it.
But also build it so it will keep going after you.
So it thrives.
Organize yourself out of a job.
Build redundant networks.
Write down things only you know.

Extraordinary article from the Secretary General of the Council of Europe. But I’m going to say this again, where are the Democrats saying that any illegal or forced annexation of Greenland will be reversed as soon as they take power. Why aren’t they making this clear www.nytimes.com/2026/01/19/o...

Been painting some infantry for Baron's War. The peasant levy is done. The foot Serjeants have just been basecoated.
The mini's are 3d prints, a mix of Reconquer, Epizion and Medbury designs.

This is scientists’s version of tearing down parts of the White House.
The National Science Foundation sign on our Eisenhower Av building is now gone.
The NSF mural in the foyer is removed and torn off in sheets.
We were supposed to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the agency in May 2025. That never happened.
