You know, I wonder if the Russians are trying to limit the damage to Ukraine to reduce the rebuild cost if they take it over. Sort of like a gentle invasion and troops were told not to fuck everything up because when it's over we want life to go back to normal as fast as possible
"They mean to take us as a prize. Their greed will be their undoing!"-

HA! That'll work better! /Sarcasm
If Ukraine has any ZSU or ZPU quad-gun AAA units, they can just mow them ruskie paratroops down in the air after their chutes open! -

Either way, I'm bringing it to my house and fixing it up. Maybe convert it into some sort of low rider. Has that been done?
I want to see it with the bouncing hydraulics! Lulz.

Something that I haven't really seen reported yet or focused on: this is basically an unprecedented invasion. Sure there haven't been "movements" like this since WW2 but a much bigger factor that everyone seems to be ignoring - maybe the Russian military, too - is the fact that the population they are attempting to invade has wifi until the power goes out and then even if it does cell service until the towers go out.
Never - in human history - has an invasion force attempted to quell a populace that has this much communicatory power at their fingertips. I mean this is potentially really, really bad for the Russians. Surely they worked this factor in to their pre-invasion equations, right? Even then - this seems like the type of thing that is impossible to account for.
We are seeing some truly unprecedented shit right now and if Russia didn't account for it properly it could go south in a hurry for them.
It took the Nazi Wehrmacht 4 weeks plus a few days to subdue "Kiev" in 1941.
It took the Soviet army 7 weeks to take back "Kiev" from the Nazi Wehrmacht in 1943.
War has changed even more than you stated, of course, except for the house-to-house urban combat problems seem the same. Unless Putin wants to level Kyiv, by WMDs or by point-blank howitzer building demolition.
The Allied Forces, including US forces, were losing so many soldiers to snipers in cities in WW2 that we started doing the point-blank howitzer building demolitions, too, so that's not new. -

They should head back to Russia or Donbas and hang around there because Ukraine is completely mobilized and not letting men 18-60 leave, would not recommend trying to do so if I was a Russian not carrying any Ukrainian ID.
And get tortured and executed for deserting in Russia or Donbas? No way!
Jump the fence in the pretty farmland (an unguarded border except for ports of entry) between Ukraine and Poland (in the area of Nyzhankovychi, Ukraine, and Malhowice, Poland, for instance), and tell the Poles you're defecting even if you get stopped, and you get to live a life in Freedom. It's back to a Cold War mentality, and the Poles aren't going to send you back as a defector -- they'll give you a passport, and then you can go where you want in the whole EU.-

This is one of the most bizarre videos I've seen yet, and we've all seen a bunch of them. Russians just abandoned their tank.
I heard the Sanford and Son theme playing in my head as the guy making the video moved around showing the interior.
Seems like conscripts who saw their opportunity, with finally no one to shoot them in the back when they deserted, to ditch their BMP/infantry-fighting-vehicle, take off their military clothes (prolly wore their street clothes underneath if they planned ahead to do this), and desert.
They already speak russian just like everyone there in Ukraine, so they won't seem out of place, and they can disappear and see if they can flee to the free part of Europe, too (Poland/Hungary/Slovakia/etc.).-

Was on a date, missed the over night. She did not like me constantly monitoring twitter vs. her new hair style. Someone catch me up quick. Did we win?
Did her new hairstyle win? Asking for a friend. Lulz.
Kyiv still stands free.
So far since sunup, a few air raid sirens and some thumps that seem like outgoing artillery (Ukrainians firing at ruskies).
Social media showing a LOT of fucked-up supply lines for the ruskies elsewhere in Ukraine and more footage of destroyed ruskie armor and materiel.
One missile strike hit a high-rise apartment building in Kyiv.
Kyiv's fierce and brave defenders so far have repelled the attempts to enter the city, and they even blew up one highway river bridge connecting Ukraine to Belraus to deny it to more ruskie/belarus armored columns.
Now some audible off and on rumbles in the distance on the DW Kyiv stream:-

Those who follow Soviet and eastern bloc history should not be surprised at a comedian showing more balls and guts and smarts than scary ex- KGB man. The heroes of Czechoslovakia in 1968-1989 were psychedelic rockers and a playwright.
No matter how this goes, I see another role for Jeremy Renner playing Zelensky in his future.

That heavy artillery in the top video could be more of the Ukrainian 2S7 Pion self-propelled 203mm heavy artillery firing outbound at ruskie targets -- I saw another video somewhere earlier today that said the Ukrainian forces had some firing earlier today from inside Kyiv.

Ramzan Kadyrov: Putin's key Chechen ally
Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov is one of the most powerful and most feared men in Russia.
For more than a decade the Kremlin has relied on him to maintain order in Chechnya - the Russian North Caucasus republic he has ruled like a personal fiefdom.
Human rights groups have accused him of a string of abuses, including the forced disappearance of opponents, torture and the persecution of homosexuals.
Critics have linked Ramzan Kadyrov to several assassinations, some of them in Europe, but he denies involvement.
In 2015 he praised a Chechen security officer charged over the Moscow killing of Boris Nemtsov, who had been one of President Vladimir Putin's most prominent critics.
Even worse, as I read somewhere that this is Putin's past modus operandi for occupation/subjugation/repression with a rape-&-pillage cheap mercenary army (bent on genocide?), plus ruskies in the motherland couldn't care less if Chechens (and not ruskies) get hurt by an insurgency in vassal serfdom republiks.
If these videos are legit :

This is why part of me thinks except for a few areas, like airports, he is using his conscripts to push fast and die. They can shoot and drive their equipment, but are not the professional core of his army. The rear groups could be a bit tougher. I have not seen any new graphics on what Russian Units are involved except for their Naval Infantry and some airborne. This is what they did in Grozny. Did not work well that time either, but eventually they were able to get accords and place Putin's buddy in place.
Not-so-strange you should mention the Chechens.
Rumors online are that once the ruskies take over, a size-unknown army of Chechens will be the Ukraine occupation/subjugation/repression force, and Ukraine will be further subdivided, too.

Just a quick walk to get some full court games at Clark Field in the evenings. Some good runs in the early 90s. Students mixed with grown ass men.

I played some pickup games there at the Clark courts and in Gregory, both pre-remodel and post-remodel.

So I've seen folks throwing around 4am local time as the possible time when the Russians start the full-fledged invasion. Is that 4am Donetsk time (about 5 minutes from now) or Kyiv time (a bit over an hour from now)? Looks like there is some traffic north of Kharkiv ...
Choose your targets, acquire, and Fire!

Those ruskie baboons weren't even interested in porking that babushka, when they usually don't care between animals or humans. That was the sign to me something was off.
