... though these days, such is the sheer strength of Putin's international positioning, they must be very, very nice to them. And send them lots of tourists, in gratitude for all the, errr, fraternal bullets and artillery rounds. And cannon fodder.
So let's see if the Russian magazine piece at this link gets fraternally taken down in the coming days. (If so, it's archived already: https://archive.ph/k8ULv) Nothing you wouldn't expect, but revealing nonetheless.
During the tours, the guides allowed tourists to approach and communicate with supposedly ordinary residents, but Valentina was alerted that they all spoke good English... And they spoke in the same memorized phrases - that they have everything thanks to their leaders and these are not just leaders, but their fathers, whom they worship. "One of our guides once said that they are like little children holding the leader's hand and do not ask where to go. Because their father always knows everything - what needs to happen, where their direction is, where the country is heading. I thought, this is an interesting comparison with small children. It really seemed to me that they perceive everything as little children," the girl said.
Some impressive weaponry in the arsenal, for all that.

While NK fertility is falling, it's twice that of SK. And that's Newsweek, not exactly NK boosters.

SK, who also make decent weapons, seem to be .. what's Korean for seppuku?
Looks like open warfare between Musk and DJT.
DJT is in the Epstein Files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!"
It's an ill institution that you can't take any positives from, so for all the misery and insanity of juche, I noted they found it clean.
Compared to, say, the UK, which since the proliferation of fast food shops and drive-thrus, has increasingly resembled a nation that has had several municipal tip explode above it.
I'm not wanting to switch, any maybe feeding litterers to ravening dogs might come under the "too far" tag, but maybe a slight tilt in that direction wouldn't be too bad a thing.
As for the Musk/Trump tiff, they both seem to want to kiss and make up, but it was fun whilst it lasted.
I had to laugh at some of the MAGA supporters though, in 48 hours we went from Elon is a genius, to Elon is a traitor, and by Monday he'll be a genius again.
Meanwhile, Trump is having Palantir build a database on everyone in the US, which under normal times would have the Molon Labe/Rooftop Voter apparel purchasers loading up on ammo. I'm sure they won't come to regret it's existence when the political pendulum swings away from them.
“We just wanna say — this war between Elon and Trump should’ve never happened. Never! It would never have happened if we were President, believe me. It’s a nasty, ugly war — so much hate on both sides. It’s very sad. You’ve got MAGA people, incredible patriots, and Tesla bros — smart guys, very smart — just collapsing. Thousands of them! It’s a disaster. We just want it to stop. We want peace.”

The best sort of NORKs.

I did wonder what kind of video of "norks" it might be ... very disappointed.
I may have been wide of the mark about them making up so soon. Someone tell Paltrow and the bloke from Coldplay, that this is how you consciously uncouple.
With any luck it'll turn into War of the Roses - the film, not the UK history.
