  • JD went to Hungary to endorse and campaign for Orbán and it caused him to drop in the polls substantially in the last few days of the run. Orbán then lost his re-election and the opposition party also gained a supermajority in their parliament, ending a 16-year pro-Russia dictatorship.

    Viktor Orban was a serious problem for the EU, since many of its functions require unanimous consent, and he could block anything Putin wanted him to. And apparently he was funneling government money into American right-wing PACs, so his loss is a significant blow to both Russia and the Republican party. It might be dominoes from here.




















  • I would like to nominate Diego de Landa, burner of the Mayan books. And a lot of Mayan people. The Mayans had books, like normal paper booms filled with Mayan writing. Histories, religion, presumably everything a society would write down. There are only four Mayan books left now. It’s all gone. It’s a tragedy that particularly boils my blood and I’m making him the final boss of a Mesoamerican-themed Pathfinder campaign I’m about to run, because I want to live out a fantasy where he gets fireballed to death or something.
