I can barely understand the logic behind "Hurtling toward a black hole, we seem to be endlessly stuck, horizonless, in the event horizon." and "Ukraine has turned into a rallying call for much of Europe, a vicarious way (dangerous, but not too dangerous) to experience once again the forward vector of time. "

Integrate Ukraine to EU and after that... What? "Hurtling toward a black hole..." again, but this time with Ukraine? ;-)
