Русский корабль - иди нахуй
I know nothing about anything, I’m just throwing my ignorant thought nuggets out to the board. But I do think that Chechnya and China both see that Russia’s military and economy are degraded to the point that they can present no serious opposition to either. Here’s the thing about Russia: being the bully who will not honor any agreements, and who will happily kill civilians to obtain a return of the Russian empire - well - that does not endear you to people. Russia has no supporters beyond the rogue states who get a benefit from Russia. Chechnya obtaining full independence from Russia benefits Chechnya. Right now Russian support only benefits a dying warlord. China can claim Russian territory without the world being outraged. When you threaten to drop nukes on the rest of the world, they will hardly cry when China seizes some of your disputed land. And China can always agree to diminish the size of seized territory in exchange for continued Russian bargain basement petroleum. How else can Russia obtain funds as it tries to continue to exist? I don’t think Russia wants to engage in a nuclear war with the west and China. So in summary:

Русский корабль - иди нахуй
The west constantly ramping up sanctions and means of combating Russia’s illegal avoidance of sanctions through the shadow fleet certainly is a problem for Putin. But on one hand, the message might not be for Putin, but for anyone in the country who has seen how much damage Putin has done to Russia’s future, and how much more damage Putin will do to Russia in 2026. I don’t think the military and the oligarchs want some kind of nuclear war resolution to increasing western pressure. If that remains Putin’s only choice, that is scary as hell, but probably increases the chance that Putin will be overthrown. My bold 2026 prediction is that China will make a move on disputed territory in the east, leaving Putin with no allies to assist him and continuing the war. Putin’s only response, given the paper tiger military they possessed now, will be to stop selling gas and oil to China. Which will crater the economy and the ability to engage in war with anybody. OTOH, China would be smart to wait until Putin is overthrown and there is a power vacuum to start its reclamation of Chinese territory in the northeast. I think China’s long-term interests are better served by seizing Russian land than by aiding Russia in its war now that Russia’s military has been degraded to such a great extent. I think it is inevitable. But timing is everything. Kadrov should be close to croaking. When that happens, all the tribes that hate his family and Russia could decide to go separatist again. If Moscow was terrified of Prigozhin’s march, they should shit bricks worrying about Chechnya. Trouble in Chechnya would be a fantastic time for China to act. I can’t imagine that Putin could survive. either of those two events, let alone two.

Pics of large women not loading…- Trump’s America
Maybe it’s just me, but I always thought that a demon out of the depths of hell would be smarter and more articulate. Most GOP politicians sound more like followers of Phil, the Prince of Insufficient Light, arisen from the depths of Heck. imagine if Trump had tried to take over the country with a posse of really intelligent, polished, subtle Myrmidons… Instead, he apparently raised a bat signal to attract an army of Beavis and Butthead type white supremacists and conspiracy theorists. That may be the thing that saves the country when duty, honor, empathy and decency fails.- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Stop Being Poor
- SEC Catch-all Thread
I always shake my head a bit at the fans of programs who don’t get the SECSECSEC. It is the simplest of constructs. The perception that the SEC is a better conference had demonstrable and tangible benefit to SEC programs over the last 20 years. This remained true even in years when the demonstrably superior SEC conference in the 2000s (at least in the top tier where I think we won seven (six?) national championships in a row ) became far less superior with the changes in NIL and portal. Even a false and incorrect appreciation of SEC programs being better resulted in higher rankings and better bowl matchups. That was good for every conference program. As a Florida fan, I hate Georgia and want them to lose every game. Georgia aside, if the conference being seen as better than other conferences leads to an advantage for Florida, deserved or not, I will always be all in on that. Why? Because I support Florida and always want the best for Florida. The idea that I would prefer Florida to have lower rankings and less advantageous bowl games simply because some people have a problem with how the SEC attempts to use that narrative to better their individual programs I find astonishing. The sole reason for supporting the ‘SEC is better’ narrative is so that Florida benefits, deserved or not. Because I always want Florida to benefit. I want Florida to benefit from any association with its conference. Just like I want Florida to benefit from bad officiating (Florida usually gets fucked by officiating, but if we got the Bama/Georgia bump, which is real, I would love to have that), I want Florida to benefit from recruits thinking SEC Florida is a better place than non-SEC conferences. I really don’t give a shit if it’s true or not. All I want is for Florida to always be in a better position versus every other SEC team, and to be in a better position than every other non-SEC team. If the perception of the SEC being inferior benefited Florida, I would be all in on everyone thinking the SEC sucked. Benefiting Florida is the only metric I care about, and in the last two decades, it has benefited Florida that the SEC is viewed favorably. A lot of that has been ESPN stanning SEC bullshit. And intelligent fans realize a lot of that is bullshit. But as long as the bullshit benefits Florida, I am 100% behind the bullshit. I get why Texas fans do not buy into any of this. That is rational. But during the timeframe that the SEC won 6 or 7 national championships in a row, the Big 12 did not produce two in a row. ESPN was not going on and on about how great the Big 12 was. When Florida squeaked in by the smallest of margins to play Ohio State in January 2007, the SECSECSEC thing had not yet vomited out of ESPN’s corporate mouth. Florida’s demolition of the buckeyes started the SEC is better narrative. Had the vote between Michigan and Florida in 2006 been held in 2010 it would not have been close. The SEC reputation at that point would’ve guaranteed a Florida matchup instead of backing in by 1000 of a point. The SEC reputation had become a demonstrable advantage for Florida at that point. and as a Florida fan, I want what is best for Florida. Period. As we entered 2026, that SEC superiority thing is gone. Other than people calling into the Paul F’s Bama smooth brain show, everybody knows that it’s bullshit now. That is probably a good thing for college football. To the extent that it’s no longer good for Florida, well, that is too bad, because I only care about what is good for Florida. I just wanted you to know why one SEC program member put up with the SEC conference loyalty concept - a concept that is foreign to Texas, and apparently rustles a lot of Jimmies. Tl:DR if the ‘SEC is better’ thing is not deader than disco now, it should be pretty soon. If you are telling me that Texas is too proud to want to get any benefit from conference affiliation, then I respect that. This Florida Gator is far more mercenary, and will take any benefit to my program that I can get, whether deserved or not.- 2026 Peach Bowl - Oregon vs. Indiana (CFP Semifinal #2)
The “ end the season part” is because Texas was not in the CFP and could continue to advance after winning. Texas had a fine season and a great bowl win. But claiming superiority over teams like Ole Miss that won TWO CFP games and we’re 18 seconds from winning their third….well, it’s not your best talking point.- Русский корабль - иди нахуй
Within 24 hours every non-heated home should have a temperature in the 30s. This is what Ukraine faces when they lose energy from Russian strikes. Misery loves company I guess. I have no idea which country has better access to large temporary power generation, but I have to assume that the allies have been providing that to Ukraine, given the number of years Russia has been targeting its energy infrastructure. At least I hope so. I doubt that Russia has the equipment or the manpower to restore the grids as quickly as Ukraine. Given that Russia thought it was invincible, I doubt that they allocated Resources into overcoming a loss of power grid scenario.- 2026 Peach Bowl - Oregon vs. Indiana (CFP Semifinal #2)
