I am intrigued by your blog, which I have just followed - I always take a glance at those who follow me, but rarely follow them.
You are much more informed than most who follow me and I wonder whether you live in Taiwan or somewhere in the west?
I am British (I have become ashamed to say, as this is no longer the Britain I grew up in) and your views on Ukraine and Russia seem similar to my own - I was particularly interested in your observations on NATO membership.
I’m, I suppose, an elderly man, that just gets some amusement creating nonsense from paperback novel covers, but it is good to read intelligent comment on your blog.
let’s say not taiwan. i’ve been fixated about ukrainian plight since 2014 and so don’t let my zealous blogs fool you.
my fixation originated from a feeling that taiwan & ukraine might share a common dilemma-an unrelenting glory seeking foreign threat, which might’ve been caused by prolific ability to imitate, to get beyond their doorsteps.
namely china & russia are attention & historically deprived from the golden age of imperialism and colonialism.
so thank you for following. i enjoyed you paperback covers. obscure but delightful mastery. and i won’t hold it against you for being british.
don’t recalled that i’ve blogged much about nato membership recently unless you dig a while back. but for a lack of better word, and also to be efficient, my observation is yes.
jokes aside, i do realize that i had reblogged another account’s take on nato membership, which, i could not do better.
i will at least say, for now, that nato membership is the russian narrative. and before nato, russia/soviet union was member of allied until russia revealed its hostile ambition was alive & well & no less than nazi germany.
on a separate matter, what profoundly is the underlying cause of birmingham insolvency?
I mean, for some reason, i just don’t buy bbc’s take on implying equal pay claims plays a major part. I frankly think it’s a similar ploy as to something like detroit dumping union pension with bailouts in 2008.
feel free ti correct me.

I'm sure I'm not the only one making this joke, I'm not gonna let that stand between me and a good Dune meme.
