Recently Venezuela has been averaging ~1,100 BBL/D/1k of crude oil production which should annualize to about 400 million barrels annually.
So this would be about 1/10 of a year's worth of production for Venezuela.
I think this is context for this unconstitutional, illegal, impeachable act.

Trump: “I am pleased to announce that the Interim Authorities in Venezuela will be turning over between 30 and 50 MILLION Barrels of High Quality, Sanctioned Oil, to the United States of America. This Oil will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, as President”

I've been trying to find a good KVM switcher that I can use at home. It's hard. I just want HDMI x2 in and out and USB-C out and powered. That is all. Do you think this is easy to find? No it is not.

In 2026, I want one thing – a kidney donated from a living donor for my partner. I've lost sleep over whether I should post this – it's a massive ask. Sometimes I wonder if it's asking too much? But the reality is that I'm unable to donate my kidney, and he has zero family who are in the position

because the best outcome for Aaron would be a donor kidney, and I need to expand my network of possible donors. If you're here in Aotearoa New Zealand, and you'd like to know more, my DMs are open for a conversation. Talking to me isn't an expression of interest in donating, and I won't take it

I asked a landscaper for plants suitable for a firebreak.
Two of the were “highly flammable” but don’t worry, they grow back after exploding.
I think the point of the house surviving, not the plant, might have been lost.

This is making Jewish Australians less safe.
Forcing black and white choices on the public will create division.
If the well being of Jewish Australians is the aim, appealing to our egalitarian nature will be more effective than lying to us and trying to drag us into conflict.

Australians know the difference between Jewish people and Israel.
In normal circumstances most Australians think about people being Jewish as much as they think about people being Presbyterian, it’s mostly of little interest.
Lobbyists are blurring these lines and bullying politicians.
