Yes, yes Ukraine must win lest the Shadow overtake the world and bring us a 1000 years of darkness, I read Masssaro's OTT nonsense ocasionally. Mostly surprised at seeing people that were somehow convinced Ukraine are still ill-equipped and outnumbered right now. Than again I think most are just underestimating Ukraine or saying people do so they can then elevate them further. All just the nature of this being a spectator sport I guess. Still waiting to see what if anything Russia does now.

Robbing Peter to pay Paul didn't work for Russia, apparently they are now going to assault the south with the forces withdrawn from Kharkiv. Tried to do this with too little. Not sure why people keep saying Kherson was a feint (I guess people's ADD minds need an excuse for lack of success immediately), Russians there are a harder fight than elsewhere, so rightly got hit where they were weak - Rosvgardia and ОМОН of all things guarding an area. People sure are excited, though. Have to say some acting as if surprised NATO weaponry, training and intelligencr actually works.

Also that 3rd Army Corps they rolled up out of something is still around, although I guess that's Kherson. I guess that is priority.

WarMonitor's giving his usual bull****, apparently Russians are killing those who try to surrender, etc.

Wonder what Russian response, if any, will be. Seems they've withdrew heavily in that area.

Have to say catching Truss reading the Bible at Elizabeth's memorial and quoting "Why then do you judge your brother or sister? Or you, why do you look down on your brother or sister?" was amusing.

Well, unless 2022 ends in a nuclear holocaust.

Well, is in response to the situation in Kharkiv. Probably should have done this sooner, fighting this war with vastly insufficient amount of troops.

Putin having an emergency meeting today, apparently (random ass rumours on social media, of course). So either war declaration, maybe ? Well, or decision to use a tactical nuke.

Seems like war won't last that long, then.

Apparently the Facebook Container add on is causing text issues, but I doubt you're using that Does it work in Troubleshoot Mode (why did they rename it from Safe Mode, well...guess it fits better) ?

Excuse me, those are targeted intelligence operations. And you're Hitler if you say otherwise.

Now there's a mental image...

Bernie Shaw died today as well.

Well not sure Ukraine's win condition is that, hah. Or at least I hope not - Yugoslavia's dissolution was fun and all but the RF's hypothetical one is going be fun, as well...but with nukes around. I can see their condition as retaking land - maybe not Crimea - but at least everything before this year. Definitely not the situation like you'll see a lot of people speaking of, a Marshall plan type situation where the forces of the Light Western countries rebuild Ukraine to glory, etc. Yah, as Sarex noted, I mistook you.

Talking about aid to rebuild, not weapons, though.

Queen Elizabeth died. Didn't get to top the Sun King, after all.

Well a bit optimistic yes, but can see the US sticking with them just as part of the game versus Russia. That and well the money going in isn't going to be aid, it's going to be "aid".

Surprised she didn't say he was the leader of Iran.

Coincidence this happens after she meets Truss ? I think not.

Yes, avarice will evaporate before the glorious light of the dawn of democracy.

I am still unsure of what Russia's victory condition is. If Ukraine wins, I don't think they'll be rebuilding on their own, should get a lot of money pouring in. Granted, great opportunity for corruption then.

Need to get the Belt DLC.

Just being a bit mocking at the peanut gallery in the war, that was all. Although, this would be something worth betting on, it's a spectator sport for a lot Well why go with the banal explanation when it must be something else. They quoted him commenting on that moron Truss becoming PM in the UK about 2 days ago, the bombing in Kabul, etc.

So let's take bets on when this ends. I say November.
