So stop fighting, but move towards the thing that started the fighting in the first place?
Bold strategy Cotton
And coming from Erdogan of all people, just fucking weird. It's Putin with a smaller dick, if that's possible. Just fucking weird, I guess his upshot would be protection of some sort against an uprising?

I just looked outside to see if I could see the giant meteor incoming. Because that's far more likely an occurrence than those greedy bastards refusing someone's money.
To be honest, most of these companies are cutting them off, not because of the invasion, but because whatever they are selling, Russians only have a worthless currency to pay them with. It's just a good look to close up shop in Russia. Happenstance Don't give these companies too much credit.

I've seen several videos like this today. Maybe the convenience store food is just better than their MREs? /Sarcasm
First successful objective by the Russian Army in all this, a raid of a 7 fucking 11

Pretty sure Mexico is a net exporter of crude, they just have to import refined petroleum.
Right now Russia can trade with Iran ( I guess oil for oil?), Venezuela (again oil for oil), North Korea (counterfeit US currency for oil?) and who else?

Might that have been a Ukrainian offensive hit on the thermabolic launcher?

I'm shocked that the Russians haven't shut down the CNN reporter outside of one of their bases in Russia. I mean he isn't able to give exact intel, but he has been reporting intel nonetheless. That is just weird to me.

Good news, the World Taekwondo association just stripped Putin of his honorary black belt or better known as the straw that broke the camel's back.

Good lord, did they recruit these kids from the slacker stock boys of Walmart convention? They look like skateboard kids missing their weed.

Lukashenko is the cackling Space Monkey next to Putin's Jabba the Hutt.
Lukashenko getting the Mussolini treatment may well be the next big development. The people of Belarus hate him with a fury.

Last I read, that flight from Russia was evacuation of diplomats.
Meanwhile, in Kharkiv:
As awful as this was, I can't help but think they missed. Yes the shock wave was certainly deadly, but in terms of damage, they didn't hit what they meant to. Russian missiles are at best quasi accurate and fired by people only quasi competent.

i mean i'm kinda curious as to exactly what he thought was gonna happen...🤔
He thought he would get his way as usual. Total bully thinking to be honest. The saying fucked around and found out has never been more appropriate. Leave out all the other factors, even the ones I just mentioned, but this is the actual truth. He did it because in his entire adult life, he has never really had anyone stand up to him. The people of the Ukraine are to be admired for a long time for this (regardless of how it ends), because other powerful people had this chance many times and refused out of either cowardice or turning a blind eye.

Interesting point I read elsewhere, but nonetheless interesting:
Putin forgot that he had personally stolen the military budget needed to maintain his own army. Estimates put Putin's personal net worth anywhere from 50 Billion to 500 Billion, all of it stolen from the Russian the people. We have don't have a great picture of his overall finances because he's done all this behind the scenes with the use of black budgets (i.e. military) hidden from people view in the auspicious national security.
So basically, he's projected huge military strength when in reality he's spent the last 20 years stealing the money needed to have said strength. Here's the weird part, now he seems shocked that his military is barely functional despite the fact that he is the one who made it that way.
The cognitive decline argument I think at the very least has some valid points.
Quoting myself must seem exceedingly self absorbed but I forgot to mention one other thing and I don't know how to edit here.
I'm betting there are some dark money hedge funds shitting their collective britches right now, because if you have the best auditors in the world hunting down all this money, you know some of this lands in that world. I wouldn't at all be surprised in the coming months and weeks a lot of the inexplicable venture capital running around is going to be tied to this.

So when does Kyiv have so many Russian POWs they become a drain on resources? You have to feed and shelter them and at some point resources are going to get scarce. Can’t give them to the Russians they’ll just give them guns and point them back at you

That has been the entire thing so far. We are all saying no way they are dumb enough to do this and then they do it. In my brain there is only two reasons they do a 40 mile convoy. It is to draw out the Ukrainians army in full force to attack them. Or it is to scare Zelensky of the sheer numbers. Everyone says oh they are sitting ducks. There are S400s in that convoy. They would tear a fighter jet to shreds. The only thing I would try on them right now is a drone in the front and a drone in the rear. And hit the fuel. If they get shot down at least you know they have some AA. But I really think they are trying to beg the Ukrainians into attacking them in the open
Sun Tzu - Art of War type stuff, present a target of opportunity that isn't that at all (paraphrasing of course, been a long time since I read that one)

Or get them bottle necked in Kyiv and rain down malotov cocktails and everything else they've got.
This is as well, I have to think there is some level of a strategic reason not to be acting on this. We know they have turkish drones with missiles.

I read earlier the a fuel resupply was destroyed today. What if we know their convey is just going to get to Kyiv only to run out of gas, like everything else there. Why waste resources then attacking a convey we know will be out of gas? Keep destroying refueling conveys.

Covid has really made women too comfortable whilst working from home/remote. I say this with all sincerity about myself as well. Now I get dressed up like I’m going to the office. Of course I have boyfriend now and so sex is very important to me. I need to have it. I can’t have my boyfriend have cognitive dissonance when he sees me look like a ragamuffin. Not cool.
Gotta say, I don't like this take, just my humble opinion. I also don't care for this photo being put here without context. Just because you do something doesn't make it societal norm. Further, your sex life has nothing to do with anyone else's. I get off on ragamuffin, so who the fuck are you?

Reading elsewhere that the Slovenian consulate was hit in Kyiv. Not quite a article 5 trigger, but close if true.
