  • I donated to one of those groups who write things on artillery shells asking for, “Wcrain am byth,” (Ukraine forever in Welsh) but they never sent me a pic of it.

    I like to think it went toward helping them defend their country and their democracy anyway, and so I sleep soundly thinking myself a hero too.



  • As a fan of spawning unimaginable horrors of man’s twisted minds to be employed in the furtherance of defending democracy against authoritarians and theocratic fascists, I approve of whatever the hell this thing is.

    Providing it’s us using them. If it’s Russia, China, or Iran making them then clearly they’re a crime against humanity and we must invade immediately to prevent this evil from being unleashed upon the world.













  • 40% of national expenditure on defence and security is astounding. I’d read previously that the massive defence spending was reshaping the Russian economy, but I had no perception it was that high.

    That sounds like the sort of spending you’d pursue if you were heading toward total war, not merely entrenched in a single ‘special military operation’. I wonder if it indicates that those who suggest that this is just the opening stage of what will end up being a much larger war involving the attempted conquest of other nations might be right.
