Ukraine Conflict - "A state of war only serves as an excuse for domestic tyranny"
Thats a good video, it really raises how ridiculous the current FSB investigation is

Im surprised you think this FSB "investigation " has any possible credibility or authenticity ? " Hope springs eternal in the human breast " I suppose

Absolutely brilliant and hilarious, she has the best facial expressions. Her look when she said " we produce more varieties of cheese than the French " And " get back to work Amazon slaves "

Random video game news... may the dice be with you!
I think it looks promising and exciting, I dont really understand how it will be implemented? Do they mean you wont play the Tabletop game anymore but it will be a digital hybrid? Or do they mean it will be both ?And do DM create there own games in the digital version or are the modules preconfigured?

Shame the SA media really sometimes gets international things horribly wrong, I have just heard this " Dugin was the brains behind the Ukrainian invasion "

Ukraine Conflict - "A state of war only serves as an excuse for domestic tyranny"
I think the hyperbole and attributing Dugin to direct influence on Putin is unhelpful The article is also written by the Jewish Chronicle and they focus on anti-Semitism in Russia generally from the Soviet time but they raise parallels between Dugins rhetoric and Putins propaganda. Thats the influence I am referring to like the example below "Dugin’s buzzword, “Novorossiya”, meaning “new Russia”, was repeatedly used by Putin on national television in 2014 regarding the annexing of Crimea, resurrecting the Tsarist terminology of the Russian empire. Dugin envisages a “new world” centred around Russia, and Putin’s victorious press release about Ukraine was similarly titled the “offensive of Russia and the New World”. According to Ukraine’s Page News, its proud publication had been scheduled for two days after the Ukraine invasion. With efficiency typical of the Soviet era, somebody forgot to remove it from the automated timer function"

But vaccines are taken to give you anti-bodies so you get less sick before you exposed . They not suppose to be taken when you already have the virus?

Yes she was a known and vociferous propagandist and called for the genocide of Ukrainians In most countries being a propagandist doesnt mean you will get assassinated but this is Russia

Yes, you raise a good point. Its possible

Ukraine Conflict - "A state of war only serves as an excuse for domestic tyranny"
Yes, he was pro-Putin. He was one of the propaganda mouthpieces for Putins War The interesting point is was Putin behind it? I doubt it because they were close so this could be a major change in the internal stability of Russia. Could you ever imagine an assassination attempt within Russia of a Putin ally before Putins War?
-
Ukraine Conflict - "A state of war only serves as an excuse for domestic tyranny"
No thats not the point, in the world of Russian associated assassinations family members are often collateral damage or get killed Blame Putin for setting the precedent, dont get mad at me https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Soviet_and_Russian_assassinations

Ukraine Conflict - "A state of war only serves as an excuse for domestic tyranny"
Not really, he is a propaganda mouthpiece of Putin. Comments like he calls for the " obliteration of Ukraine " and other things so he would be a legitimate target for anyone opposed to Putin or Putins War
-
Ukraine Conflict - "A state of war only serves as an excuse for domestic tyranny"
As we all know Putin has been assassinating and killing people who speak against him for years so this is just an example of one of the other sides doing the same thing. It was inevitable and doesnt surprise me in the least

Why what do you think will be the extrapolation from this truthful account from a Russian soldier?

What !! I thought when you use to do your daily walks you did 18-20 miles/day ? But I agree, 18 miles/day is not my idea of a reasonable or achievable hike
-
What are you Playing Now? I name all the operations that go down in Taipei.
Yes, Im like you. I always play on normal and I have no issues with dropping any game to easy on certain encounters but only when something is really vexing me...and I always try for about 2-3 hours first

My brother-in-law went for a 4 day hike in Czech in a place called the Sumava park that reaches into the Bavarian forest, it was 70 miles and they did about 18 miles/day. The scenery looks amazing

The Wagner Group are nothing but barbaric and uncontrolled mercenaries who have no respect for human life or the Geneva Convention, I hope they suffer severely
