LOOK AT MY FOUR PREVIOUS POSTS
If nobody gives a hoot I don't know what to tell you. They're about the world's people who are very much like everyone else. People are people, not what various governments would have us believe. If you cannot agree then I have nothing more to say. I've known this for some time.Trying to convince people otherwise would be a further waste of my time. There's nothing more of value I can offer via this blog.. other then adding silly entertainment and rather meaningless crap going forward. Maybe some science, humor and other stuff. That's about it. So far it seems most people don't give a shit. Prove me wrong!
'Backpacker Ben' Visits Myanmar
Myanmar, one of the most dangerous countries in the world. There is currently a civil war happening in Myanmar and the country is under a military coup so right now is a tough time to visit the country. However there are certain regions you can visit so I decided to go there and see how life is in 2024 during hard times.
This was my second time travelling Myanmar after a few years so it was good to be back! I had an amazing experience last time so hopefully the same happens again. Welcome to Myanmar!
I've been following a number of these vBloggers for some time as they visit various countries. I find there is a hellva lot more going on then just bing banging back and forth over politics. What I've learned is people are far more alike then different no matter which country or government they are stuck iving in. Face it, we're not the only tin can on the dump. The way most people in this country act you'd never know it.

vBlogger 'Sabbatical' Visits Ekaterinburg, Siberia
Knowing how this trip will eventually end, these are the saddest, most bittersweet videos I’ve ever edited. Even with all that happened, I still hold nothing against the Russian people. You meet people there who hold all kinds of different opinions: many hate the leadership, many love the leadership, and then there’s everything in between. But even the Russians who had fully swallowed the propaganda were incredibly kind to me, even though I was an American and their supposed enemy. They treated me in a way I didn’t see anywhere else in Europe. They’re human, like anywhere else.
My experiences were a good example of what happens when dictators and governments aren’t tearing people apart.

Johnny FD: Life In Ukraine
BTW- 30 years ago, Ukraine, under pressure from Russia and the United States, renounced the world's third-largest nuclear arsenal.
• 3,000 units of tactical nuclear weapons;
• 176 intercontinental ballistic missiles;
• 30 to 43 strategic bombers;
• 240 warheads for ballistic missiles.
All of this was exchanged for the BUDAPEST MEMORANDUM, by which the United States and Russia promised to protect Ukraine from external aggression
