My ex husband is being scammed.
Anyone who thinks they are about to get 900 billion dollars has smoked some Jupiter-sized crack rock.
That people fall for this shit…I really chose the wrong career.
WTF
Wood You Believe
Eco-Friendly wooden armour is a new standard of the Russian military.

For those not in the know, wooden armor does nearly nothing against any kind of munition that would threaten something like a tank. It’d be very slightly effective against the weakest drones (though posing a fire risk), do nearly nothing against anything greater than 7.62mm, and would be like air to anything beyond that. (There are some nuances here regarding HEAT rounds and shaped charges I’m not discussing.)
This is pointless and mostly dumb.
It’d take approximately 12 feet of wood (depending on type) to stop what three inches of modern alloy armor can keep from penetrating.
Neckligible
1997 America and 2025 America are very, very different places.
Prop App
Having a rival’s propaganda apparatus operating openly in your country is just so goddamn insane.

More winning! Total Victory!

Yesterday, the Ukrainian military reported a yet unusual incident, when a unit of wounded Russian soldiers on crutches was sent to take up positions on the front line. Today, a video of this 'assault' appeared.
Over the past few months, complaints and whining from wounded… https://t.co/lxiRVAeD4T pic.twitter.com/BY07ad4nYJ

Ian Welsh: This is what winning looks like! Total victory for my most-adored Putin!
Everyone else: What the actual goddamn fuck?
(Warning: people definitely do die in the above video. Which somehow fucktard Welsh will also see as a victory.)
Scholzing
I guess that clown is fine with fighting Russia in Germany in 3-5 years. Well, he’s gonna get his wish. It’s interesting how when given a clear and obvious choice, Germany and much of the rest of Europe of their own free will just shoots themselves in the foot repeatedly. I guess they are really into self-harm.
Tokky Blocky
It is absolutely fucking batshit insane that we’ve allowed TikTok to operate so long. It is without exaggeration an openly-operating propaganda arm of the CCP. This is just so freakin’ absurd.
Not Too
The liberals and progressives have become total nutballs about this, to a level I just cannot understand. They moved so fast from #MeToo to “If you can’t stand some sexual assault, being set on fire, or your kids being abused, you’re a MAGA loser!” I mean, what the fuck.
Engage
North Korean M1989 "Koksan" already on the frontline. It still amazes me how much the US, Europe and South Korea don't give a shit about North Korea fully entering the war in Europe. https://t.co/pMefI2kdIx pic.twitter.com/dkh3zCFbOQ

It amazes me too. That should have been the “Time to quit fucking around” moment and it just was not. NATO should’ve full engaged then and evicted North Korea and Russia from Ukraine.
And we did nothing. Nothing at all.

This and the related declining standard of living in Canada is 95% of the reason we decided against immigrating there. No reason to climb into a sinking ship.
Knock Knock
Drones in combat are simply terrifying. And the Ukrainian drone pilots are next level.
What’s the Dyl?
Try as I might, I never have and still do not see what’s so special about Bob Dylan. His appeal is completely lost on me, both musically and as a celebrity apart from that.
I feel like Dylan about some people do about Taylor Swift, I guess.
Ad Fall
Windows 11 is promoting Xbox PC Game Pass with a pop-up ad.
Ads in a paid OS. That we allow this is amazing. How far we’ve fallen — but we’ll descend into hell further still soon enough.
Old as ’62
93rd Brigade of Ukraine repels Russian AFV column attack on the Bakhmut front.
This attack is very notable because in addition to the BMPs and other equipment, the destruction of 5 Russian T-62 tanks that took part in this attack was already visually confirmed (by… https://t.co/xvStDGe0CN pic.twitter.com/IWjYfdgjnj

Huh. Those T-62s are old. Shows the Russians really are near to running out of anything useful. Those tanks were last produced by Russia in 1975 — 50 years ago now.
