…and you’re okay with being recorded all day long, just like that?

Vihtavuori, lol.

My sanity isn’t ready for an reality where Elon fucking Musk is fucking shit up globally. Trump was bad enough, but this shit? This is what will eventually cause a global conflict against fucking fascists of all things.

We already did this shit once, are we really going to do it again?

Ain’t that the truth. The amount and types keep changing as they grow, too.

Nevermind the purple, although it’s ugly as hell, but having that dead space in the corner doesn’t leave much room for prep work, since both ends are also basically useless for anything you actually do in the kitchen except perhaps as temporary storage. This leaves you with exactly one place to actually prep on, and it’s not exactly a large one either.

We also know full well that the corner would be full of appliances as well, which leaves us with even less room.

Shitty kitchen all around, imo.

I’m Finnish, so if there’s one thing I’m aware of it is Putin and his various machinations.

I’ve been on the outside observing this escalating shit show for 8 years now and I think I’ve finally reached the point where I don’t even have the words to convey what I feel about the current state of American politics.

I mean, I know there’s a lot of history behind it etc., but just the past months? I don’t even…

I hope shit gets better for ya’ll, I sincerely do.

It’s a bit like Finland and Russia; we’re the one country they wouldn’t nuke because St. Petersburg is too close.

It’s almost poetic, really.

My pleasure. The great thing about The Guardian especially, besides the fact that they do try to cover the negative sides as well, is that they tend to separate ongoing events into their own pages. You can bookmark only Ukraine and check what has happened recently easily.

Granted, these days it’s mostly whatever bombings Russia has done during the night sprinkled with whatever counter attacks Ukraine manages, but still. In my opinion they’ve been quite quick with the updates when something major has happened. They covered Prigozhin’s road trip to Moscow last year very well, almost minute to minute.

That’s true, I’m sorry.

There were some twitter accounts worth following, but after what happened over there I don’t know if any of them are still active. Likewise there were some subs in Reddit that had decent amounts of factual posts, but I don’t know about them anymore either.

Other than that, what’s wrong with piecing together news from the most reliable sources? The Guardian has excellent coverage of the war. Anything that goes on for this long will obviously suffer from some story-fatigue but they’re at least more trustworthy than anything from Russia.

It’s called fog of war for a reason though, you’re never going to get 100% unbiased and correct information about ongoing battles, for opsec reasons if nothing else.

The only relevant answer is that nobody knows for sure. Ukraine is doing their very best but they’re fighting not only Russia but also the combined effort of all the fuckwits that support Russia materially, i.e. China, Iran and North Korea etc. it’s not exactly an easy position to be in, even if their tech is of lower quality than what we have in the west they’re also able to churn out a lot more, and that shows.

On the other hand, it’s pretty telling that Russia is resorting to what amounts to long range terror bombing in between human wave attacks. They used up a lot of manpower last summer, and it can’t be easy to replace those losses. They do have access to a lot more human resources, but again, of dubious quality.

Russia is certainty hoping for another 4 years of the orange fuckwit in the White House though. That’s where the real danger is. If that happens all bets are off.

So, you’re doing absolutely nothing except consciously support the rapist fuck who wants to sell out the whole country to Russia? Gotcha.

Mr Inbetween. The 8.7 on imdb is well earned.

This might be hard to believe, but people are dumb as fuck even without the help of anything remotely resembling the current iteration of AI.

What, you’d be surprised if they press-ganged these women into sexual slavery? Really?

This is Russia we’re discussing here.

It’d probably end with one really fat Netanyahu. He’s exactly the kind of backstabbing bitch who’d thrive in that environment.

You’re projecting again.

I would have, but I didn’t remember it offhand and didn’t have time to check. She deserved far better than she got though, that’s for sure.

Too late, as the one who broke the story got murdered years ago. She’s not talked about nearly enough.

You’re not wrong, and he’s obviously using it to full effect either way, but it just boggles my mind a bit that they probably knew full well this’d happen and they let it, smack middle in Moscow of all places.

It’s not exactly a good look no matter how much that demented fuck tries to spin it.
