Ukraine Invasion 2: no more Black Sea fleet for you

Fair, I should probably stick to my usual low-content-and-meme approach to posting

I like your posts, FWIW. I don’t think you’re part of this venue’s chronic issues.

As long as they’re not “boomer memes” you may be ok.

@hokie I think you got in the crossfire of some pettiness. I got value from your posts, fwiw.

I appreciate it, and will just echo you all and hope that somehow, magically, the pettiness and chronic issues will disappear someday and we can just be a bunch of weirdos chatting politics and current events on the internet.

Must we do this here?

Isn’t that why some people work in hospitals?

I met a couple of morgue assistants once who would confirm this.

I don’t want to see the bodies, just the numbers.

Statistics are my pornography.

for only 70 rubles a day, you too can send a grown ass russian to be vaporized by a loitering munition or a high precision excalibur or an anti-tank javelin or a grenade launched by a drone.

the cherry on top there is that the humanitarian aid appears to be delivered by an LDPR truck, which is the political party used to be led by zhirinovsky. that’s basically how the parties build voter support there. right before “elections”, they drive around handing humanitarian aid to pensioners.

ETA: first suggested tweet following that thread. the dead orc at the end really hits it out of the park for me.

Not Ukraine but we just had a blaring, alarming North Korean missile launch warning here in Japan, and loud speakers are urging us to take cover from impending explosion.

Fun stuff.

Jesus guys the Ouji board was a miss. When you’re doing jokes, even when you’re good as Ukraine, some will miss. Unlike HIMARS.

feels pretty close to reality, except

  • woman doesn’t live in the UK but in Buryatia or Yakutia
  • is an ethnic minotiry
  • is only going to meet svyatoslav if she can shiv him with a broken vodka bottle after the date.
