This isn’t just a soldier. This is a legend.

471 days of hell without rotation.

Serhii "Wind" Tishchenko, a combat medic of Ukraine’s 30th Brigade, held a position near Soledar from August 13, 2024 to October 28, 2025 — just a few hundred meters from russian forces.

While others rotated out — he stayed.

When communication was cut, they recorded video messages for families on flash drives and passed them through “live messenger backpacks” with powerbanks along the road.
2/6 Image
He dug a 6-meter-deep well under the position so they would have water. They drank unfiltered water from it.

For months, he moved on his knees — until they were covered in blood.

He lived in a tiny bunker beneath an asphalt road, repeatedly hit by drones and artillery.

The drug may start the addiction.

But over time, the cue can begin to drive it.

A place. A person. A smell. A mood. A time of day.

This is how the brain learns to seek the drug before the drug is even present. 🧵👇 Image
To understand why, start with what repeated drug use teaches the brain.

The substance is not experienced in isolation.

It happens in a context:

* where the person is
* who they are with
* what they feel
* what they expect
* what their body has learned to anticipate
That context can become a cue.

The brain learns that certain signals predict drug availability.

Over time, the cue stops being background.

It becomes a trigger for craving, attention, motivation, and drug-seeking behaviour.

1/ Russian soldiers who are blind, deaf, have lost limbs, or are in wheelchairs, are having their medical discharges cancelled and are being sent back to Ukraine to fight. It appears to be Russia's latest measure to make up for its huge losses. ⬇️
2/ Seriously injured soldiers with category 'G' status (temporarily unfit for service) are being rounded up at home in Russia and declared fit again by military doctors, before being sent back to war. Relatives say that appeals to the authorities are having no effect.
3/ 38-year-old Pavel Podgrushny from Krasnodar was blown up by a mine in 2024, suffering head and chest injuries and losing his hearing and his left eye. He was treated in Volgograd, discharged to recuperate at home, and given a prosthetic eye.

(1/14) 🧵

A full industrial-development scenario for the Philippines probably won't depopulate Metro Manila.

A mountainous country with limited land of 100M+ people that actually industrializes ends up MORE urban, not less. Image
Image
(2/14) A developed Philippines will probably end up with a spatial pattern similar to Japan, Korea, and Taiwan (below). The largest land area is for forested mountains and preserved land, followed by agricultural land in the flatter plains, then a small area for urban built-up. Image
Image
Image
(3/14) And that small urban built-up area is where around ~90% of the population might end up living, creating an approximately 90:10 urban: rural divide, a far cry from the 54:46 proportion of the Philippines today. Image

:: Exotics With No catalysts ::

Any guesses on which weapon will receive one in JUNE — and which ones will be forgotten?

That’s 24 exotic weapons. Bungie would usually give us around 2-3 each season. Image

Before 1750 the average peasant worked roughly 120 to 150 days a year.

Furthermore, the medieval calendar was packed with official church holidays and festivals. In winter people could only work day light hours.

Yet UK parliament yet a few wealthy elite control land. Image
So suddenly they were forced to work all hours under a new invention, the light bulb.

Conditions got exploitative, with next to no days off and working all hours inside in dangerous factories.

Yet the industrial revolution could have happened without the need to work that much.
We must learn these lessions from history and devise system to help.

🧵In Keeping the Dream Alive I set out the evidence that Murrell was involved in a conspiracy to remove Alex Salmond from public life. He would have been very invested in preventing Alex from returning to an SNP leadership role as it would have meant an end to his crime spree 1/3
Now that we know, by his own admission, that Murrell is both a dishonest and corrupt individual I would like the police and the Crown to investigate the evidence that he and others may have been involved in a conspiracy to pervert the course of justice without further delay. 2/3
Keeping the Dream Alive is available from all good book sellers. I plan to update it fully with the story on the SNP finances. There is a lot more to say. 3/3amzn.eu/d/042mfVsH

Ebola - it's not all about respiratory aerosols.

DYK that you, and me, and everybody are Pig Pen from Charlie Brown?

We shed our entire outer layer of skin every 2-4 weeks, about 500 million cells daily.

Your corneocytes (outermost cells) lift off of your body with the
gentlest of micro-air currents. Like a leaf picked up off the ground for the briefest of moments in fall.

They act like 12 micron aerosols in float time, but 25% of total skin flakes are sub 5 microns...and you know what that means. Deep deposition - or shallow as
sub 5 likes to also deposit in the nose.

It's funny...I embrace push-back in debate. Tightens up my game.

Imagine if those skin flakes now have Ebola on them?

Two studies show that Ebola literally oozes through the skin - both ways. In and out.

Not shown in vivo, but

🧵 On Christmas morning 2020, an RV bomb hit an AT&T office in Nashville and triggered a telecom outage that also disrupted emergency communications. This thread examines what happened and why it mattered.
2/25

The blast happened outside an AT&T central office in downtown Nashville on Dec. 25, 2020. It was not a random location.
3/25

Anthony Quinn Warner died in the explosion. Three other people were injured. The human toll was real, but the systems impact was larger.
