[Farm Boy]

Yep. There are a bunch of huge LNG tankers anchored since some days ago which i can see from my window. They must be waiting to unload at Huelva LNG plant. The big red dots:

The world must reorder. Supply chain processing capacities and armament replacements must go in even if they take years to build. I'd consider expansionist murder a permanent policy stance for the foreseeable future. One invading regime pulls back globally and it makes room for the others.

Someone had fun with the statue honoring Red Army in Czech Republic.


As far as I'm concerned, it should have been pulled down long ago. Communist rule was not much better here than nazism, especially during 50's.

As in the case with Syria previously, Russia is hoping to strike Europe again with humanitarian crisis. This time with the Ukrainian refugees.

The future will be much like the past then, no problem,

but we had hoped we might try something else. More like the roaring 20s, less 30s.

Only works with Muslims I think - Ukrainians are welcome, they skip all asylum procedures in Europe afaik.

We just have to check they're not disguised Russians

I was going to say it won't work because these refugees are white.

Can't have one without the other (also the Roaring 20s were quite crappy in their own way)

Strangely that's less of an issue here, Christian Syrians for example were given similar preferential treatment, they're not exactly white either.

If only we could genetically alter humans and make them more empathic.

We'd probably then have to exterminate the older unaltered humans. Don't want those aggressive genes remixing back in with the population.

The main difference is not color, region or religion. Most of Ukrainian refugees are women with children.

One can only hope.

I’d think that was a fake story if not for the fact that somehow my 2019 flight to the USA had not got caught in the time warp and I ended up in the bad universe.

Kiwi soldier interview from Ukraine.

Conscripted Russians captured or killed within days on Ukraine front line - former NZ soldier

A former New Zealand solider on the front line in Ukraine says growing numbers of freshly conscripted Russians are being captured or killed within 72 hours of being called up. The Russian President Vladimir Putin gave mobilisation orders to over 300,000 men on 21 September - some of whom are...

Some Russian soldiers essentially require babysitting vs combat or fighting. Just pick them up and feed them.

Two India's largest oil refineries stop buying Russian oil, out of fear for EU secondary sanctions.
