March 23rd
Four weeks of fun, frollicing and fighting. Four weeks into a 3 day campaign. 1 Month since the World WTF'd as one
--Russian soldiers told on day four that it would be over in a couple of hours. 576 hours later….
--Quantity of Russian dead still unknown. Maybe 7000, maybe 17,000. Injured somewhere in the 30-40,000 range
--Quantity of Ukrainian dead or injured, I don’t know. Ukraine admitted to 1300 about 10 days ago.
--Russia isn’t making casualty claims. Not even exaggerated ones. (Unless it's about TB2's)
--Russia is clamping down on local newspapers reporting on soldier’s funerals.
--When they are held, Priests are very much of the 40K Priest mould. It's disturbing how into this the church is.
--Ukraine dominates the information sphere. Wrecked, looted, abandoned, Russian equipment everywhere. This hasn’t changed for 4 weeks.
--Every smartphone user is simultaneously a spy and a propagandist.
--Russian soldiers too busy trying to phone their commanders for orders to video themselves, it seems.
--Only the Luhansk and Donetsk rebels seem to have achieved much in the way of noise.
--Mariupol is now sufficiently ‘dealt with’ that troops can start moving North.
--The fighting continues, but there’s little but rubble left to fight over. It is the ashes of a dead land.
--The shelling of civilians trying to flee continues.
--The lawyers at the Hague will be getting their paycheques for decades after this is done.
--US: Russian troops have committed War Crimes
--Russia otherwise trying to do what brainy war experts think it should’ve done 3 weeks ago – encircle the Ukrainians pinned in the east.
--They may not have enough capability left to do it.
--Is there anybody in charge figuring this shit out, or are all these armies just wandering about on their own?
--Minister Shoygu has been missing since March 11th – his last public appearance. Putinbunker, or Coffinbunker?
--If you’d fucked up this badly, would you show your face in public?
--Russian TV calls for the nuking of Poland like I call for the nuking of a frozen dinner. 30 seconds and it’s cooked.
--Russian government has rare attack of common sense – admits it will only use nukes if it’s existence is actually threatened.
--This depends on your definition of ‘threatened’ I guess. Russia is threatened by its own shadow.
--Sergei Lavery admits they didn’t expect all their assets to get frozen – after so many slaps on the wrist it’s a punch to the face, a kick in the nuts and a cactus in the arse. It’s thievery, they say
--Russian soldiers admit they didn’t expect to be frozen either. If there was any army in the world that would have cold weather gear you’d expect it to be Russia – but not.
--The Maxim gun continues to prove its worth, after 140 years of service. On both sides.
--Someone has one in a double mount – with a modern optic bolted to the top. As you do.
--Russian soldiers have been spotted with Mosin-Nagant rifles.
--Ukrainian airforce still flying – but Russia close to gaining air-superiority.
--The only thing Russia has on its side is sheer bloody numbers.
--And once again, we’re being told they may run out of fuel/ammo/food in three days
--Russian soldier, pleading with headquarter “Sir, please, we’re starving. If we eat any more grass, we’ll be mooing like cows”
--Russian officer reassures them. “We’re having honey in our tea, and you don’t see us buzzing like bees”
--President Biden is attending a NATO summit, with Zelensky by video link (tomorrow)
--4 full battlegroups into states bordering Ukraine/Belarus - but not going over the border. Trying to avoid a NATO/Russia donnybrook
--The current posture is making Russia squeal like a pig, but can Ukraine last long enough for the pig to topple?
--Europe's strongest weapon is still it's free market, ability to cooperate and being able to tank the economic damage required to skullfuck the Russian economy into the ground faster than any missile barrage.
--Economic war is still war. Just because there're no ruined buildings or burned out tanks full of crispy-critters, doesn't mean their won't be casualties. The starving, the frozen. It's a comfy form of war for most, but not without consequences for many.
--Speaking of capitalist scum, 4 weeks after Pornhub, Nestle finally bows to pressure and tries to pull out of Russia
--I’ll never cease to be amused at how early Pornhub pulled out. (And I won’t stop using that joke)
--Facebook, Instagram and the like now blocked in Russian. Whatsapp still OK
--Russia’s demanding payments for gas in Rubles – to force foreign countries to buy them and prop the currency
--Nope, says Italy and Germany, Russia needs the payments enough that - well - it's fucked now.
--Poland has expelled 45 potential spies
--Russia orders American diplomats home to retaliate.
--Russia may no longer be able to fund its foreign embassies. Oh Dear. Spies will soon be required to expel themselves.
--You can buy a Zalensky dakimakura, if you’re that way inclined
--Or a Putin bog roll. Good thing too – I’m almost out of Boris Johnsons.
--Belarussian drone found in Ukrainian airspace – a child sent it over the border so Ukraine could use it
--It’s the only piece of Belarussian hardware to cross the border. It’s been three weeks since they were expected to invade. They’re going to do it, any day now, any day….. any day…..
--Ukrainian police may be back to work in Irpin – Ukraines counter offensives are slow.
--Russian monobrow Colonel captured. Supposedly head of Information and Psychological countermeasures.
--Ukraine is using it’s TB2’s as spotters – and as weapons deliverers.
--Russians have managed to attack at least 3 Ukrainian supply trucks.
--Teenagers are stealing Russian BTR’s – because why not
--Whatever the fuck was carrying that captured VAL rifle was special – those things aren’t common.
--And Europe continues to supply The Good Shit.
--UK asks Youtube to delete Russian Propeganda
--So many US Republicans are going to get pwned
--At least some of the captured fancy shit is making its way west. Traded for what?
--NATO may be going to high alert. Will likely Reassure Russia it’s just a planned exercise and definitely not any form of special military operation
--Back in the Parish, Mick Wallace still sucks Putin's cock - because why not. He's spouting Kremlin points Fucking cretin. Once again, making a food of us in front of the real countries.
--Russian conscripts are expecting to go home, Friday week.
--Russian army “Where there’s a whip – there’s a way”. This would gut morale – if there was any to begin with.
--Will it be possible for the Russian army to properly Haze it's new intake with so many conscripts at the front?
--Is Ukraine starting to --- ever so slowly --- gain the initiative?

I love the smell of rotaries in the morning. You know one time, I got to work early, before the rush hour. I walked through the empty carpark, I didn't see one bloody Prius or Golf. And that smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole carpark, smelled like.... ....speed.
One day they're going to ban them.
