He tends to do little travelogues of the historical sites he visits in the newsletter.

I LOVE SEEING DEAD BABIES ON 𝕏, THE EVERYTHING APP. IT'S WORTH IT FOR THE FOLLOWING TAB.
John ripping into that Po-lish thing in the Poe newsletter is good. That was gross and reminded me too much of my time reading stuff like that in uni.

As great as RWN is, I really miss Dolan's writing as well. The few things I've seen of his newsletter were great.

i think mao recalled during one of his meetings with kissinger that the egyptians didn't like mao talking to him because he was a jew, but mao was like "yeah but he's not as pro-israel as you think he is, they're not all the same, besides we've collaborated with others of their kind like karl marx." i think they also discussed dialectical reasoning

*gravely kissinger voice* yes i studied hegel in grad school

Mao: That's what I am saying. . . . But let us not speak false words or engage in trickery. We don't steal your documents. You can deliberately leave them somewhere and try us out. Nor do we engage in eavesdropping and bugging. There is no use in those small tricks. And some of the big maneuverings, there is no use to them, too. . . . Your CIA is not good for major events.

Kissinger: That's absolutely true. That's been our experience.

New EP is about the uMkhonto we Sizwe, Mandela's armed insurgency organization during the Apartheid era. The actual armed struggle against the South African regime is something that has been glossed over a lot in the history of the country so I'm pretty stoked to listen to it.

taking a break from reading the covid thread about the us government's failure to take the necessary large-scale measures needed to improve the situation because their institutions are populated with self-serving careerists whose sole goal is to accrue personal power and wealth at the cost of the populace to listen to the radio war nerd episode about the afghanistan government's failure to take the necessary large-scale measures needed to improve the situation because their institutions are populated with self-serving careerists whose sole goal is to accrue personal power and wealth at the cost of the populace

Doing stuff like that under time pressure sitting on an airport floor, I totally could imagine getting scammed (depending on how competent the scam site is).
