  1. That's the thing about insta-news through social media. Through the fog of war its pretty difficult to tell what's actually happening. In this case, I obviously hope that this bit of news (captured vs dead) is true.

  3. Am I crazy that this spooks me a bit? Can totally see this madman launching out of spite.
  4. seems significant https://www.reuters.com/world/ukraines-zelenskiy-welcomes-peace-talks-proposals-video-message-2022-02-26/
  5. He also threatened nukes against anyone who helped the Ukraine. As someone who remembers the 80s sure brings back some unpleasant feelings. Just the fact that he's uttering these threats is something else.

  7. Other than when I see it in articles, not usually a twitter person anymore. This person's feed (some of the clips have already been posted in this thread) is worth a follow right now, however.
  8. They were always interesting to watch. Intelligent badasses.
  9. Yeah. I'm guilty of skimming the thread due to the usual suspects.
  10. I will quickly defer to the more knowledgeable, but the cut them off from SWIFT sentiment sounds like 'be careful what you wish for.' https://apnews.com/article/biden-putin-russia-sanctions-e7cf432771171840f7ed70542b891a6e

  12. thread is moving fast so SIAP: https://old.reddit.com/r/nextfuckinglevel/comments/t0hm79/large_crowd_of_antiwar_protestors_in_st/ Moving. Esp considering what these folks are risking in order to protest.
  13. The second one. Where Trump just displays his typical brilliance and Fake News Host displays her reptilian morality.
  14. "A father who sent his family to a safe zone bid farewell to his little girl and stayed behind to fight ..." https://old.reddit.com/r/nextfuckinglevel/comments/t0b99r/a_father_who_sent_his_family_to_a_safe_zone_bid/ hard to watch.
  15. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/2/24/no-choice-but-to-invade-ukraine-kremlin That's some bravery.
  16. Always liked this one with Cornell doing his thing on the end of it:
  17. Man, sucks. Loved Screaming Trees and as mentioned above really enjoyed his solo album "Bubblegum." There it goes. There goes my youth, my twenties. Dammit.
  18. Decided I want to learn to ollie at age 51.
  19. Man I'm slow. I knew the cap reminded me of something.
  20. I kind of wonder if he's going senile. Maybe he was always off his rocker and I didn't notice, but sure seems to be going off in multiple threads with the crazy lately. Ah well, the ignore list grows.
  21. Believe I mentioned a co-worker I was surprised to find out was an ant-vaxxer. Before I knew that fact I had launch with him last year (I was already fully vaccinated). He played it off as “I just haven’t got around to it yet.” Before I knew that I was excited to meet him as my team is fully remote and I happened to be visiting an area near where he lived. Plus he and I were working together daily. He always was nice and seemed cool. His excuse turned out to be bullshit as he let me know months later he had to meet with HR to verify his non-vaxx status. Well it finally caught up with him. He has been sick for 8 days and says “This thing is kicking my butt. I have lost 12 lbs and I can barely stay awake” He is a fitness buff btw. I take no joy in his illness and I worry for him. If only there was something he could have done.
  22. I'm betting you've read a lot of Roger Angell. I can't claim to have read his books, but he wrote this essay on aging a while back that reminds me I should. That essay is from 2014. Checked wikipedia and he is still alive and 101 now.
  23. Apparently this is where you display your inability to think.
  24. A mentally ill BLM activist definitely discredits the entire idea behind Black Lives Matter.
