  1. There is a big divide in Eastern Europe between the folks nostalgic for Soviet times and everybody else:
  2. UA artillery inside view
  3. Somebody’s rifle sling caught a bullet
  4. That’s a lot of trucks lined up, maybe the UA has something cooking:
  5. Stugna vs. dismounted infantry; big splash:
  6. flashback to first great stolen Russian armor vid:
  7. Resnikov getting out of a Leopard: “Excuse me, where is the road to Moscow?”
  8. I don’t understand why Lukashenko would admit this:
  9. Klitschko. Will be interesting to see later if it’s just a photo op or if the guy is heading east. Fighters fight.
  10. UA drone terrorizing Russian squad:
  11. Girkin with a real rant calling Gerasimov a cretin and saying they’ll be naked and barefoot by mid year without a Chinese lend-lease.
  12. Ruskies try to shoot down a drone with AKs and end up eating the grenade. Ouch! Pretty much ruined their day.
  13. Russian squad getting blown up by a rocket/ATGM. Boom /Denzel
  14. Interesting video of a rocket that went three floors deep into a Russian outpost but didn’t explode. Narrator sounding like morale is low:
  15. Any guesses as to what China’s “peace plan” might look like? It will be interesting to see them try to wade into brokering this thing and likely faceplant. No way Ukraine agrees to any territory concessions now when it looks like the tide is getting ready to turn and they’ve got a couple hundred NATO MBTs, IFVs, etc etc on the way.
  16. 34 countries want the IOC to ban Russia and Belarus athletes: “we do not agree that Russian and Belarusian athletes should be allowed back into competition”. The games are a big deal in Dictatorships, and we need to stick together on this. Many Ukrainian Olympic caliber athletes are likely dead now (I think I saw some obits for a few). Why in the fuck the IOC thinks letting the Russian and Belorussians compete in this scenario is unconscionable and the IOC needs their collective clock cleaned. I’m going to go ahead and say the quiet part out loud: Europe and the US are the only reason the games exist and are I’m sure the biggest revenue generators. The IOC needs to get that straight and stop catering to 3rd world countries and pissing us off. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/statement-on-russias-war-on-ukraine-and-international-sport/statement-on-russias-war-on-ukraine-and-international-sport
  17. Illia has a good “how did we get here” summary article here, worth a click, the guy works hard: https://kyivindependent.com/national/one-year-later-how-russia-came-to-a-fail-in-ukraine-battle-after-battle
  18. Definitely will knock your dick in the dirt.
  19. 23 hens around the house feeder Sunday morning My new apple trees are leafing out: Dad and I worked out butts off Sunday, got more tree cages built and installed, watered all the new trees, did some equip maintenance, and welded up a new gate. Got a lot done.
  20. Speaking of raccoons, there is a “Combat Raccoon” Ukrainian military squad that has some good merch on Saint Javelin:
  21. Long read but a good summary of Russia’s strategic mistakes to date and corrections: https://www.foreignaffairs.com/ukraine/what-russia-got-wrong-moscow-failures-in-ukraine-dara-massicot
  22. This is a good read: https://rusi.org/explore-our-research/publications/commentary/us-led-security-assistance-ukraine-working “Observing training and assistance first-hand, our view is that Ukrainian military success is a function of low-level ingenuity and creativity, as well as high motivation and morale.”
  23. Dury’s in San Antonio
