The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I should also add that there are other potential sources on (for example) YouTube, but one has to be very careful vetting them. Any yahoo can post to YouTube. But there is some quality content if you screen.

My primary source of info for the Ukraine situation is Perun on YouTube. He does very deep dives on different aspects of the war, its economics, how it's affecting the political climate (e.g. Putin is actually strengthening NATO because at least two more nations have applied to join the alliance, and other members are increasing their defense spending). He doesn't do day-to-day reporting, but more a sum-up of the situation. He's also pretty clear on what is his opinion, and what is verifiable fact (and often the means of verification, like visual confirmation of destroyed armor, etc).

I was very leery about Perun at first (as I said, any yahoo can post). But he has been consistently solid in his analyses. His videos can be a bit dense with data, though.
