Just Human #381

In this episode, I attempt to sort through news stories and statements regarding the reported slowdown, interruptions, and limitations on Starshield in the Russo-Ukrainian War. Musk says, “It wasn’t me.” Trump says, “It wasn’t me.” Media says, “It was Musk and Trump.” Zelenskyy says, “It’s still not fixed.” Pentagon says… nothing. Spoiler: we don’t actually figure out what happened or why, but the exercise of going through it all provides lessons in filtering news, comparing reports, and staying sober-minded in an environment that constantly begs you to get drunk on emotion and political bias.
