  1. Crossing into mainland Russia plays right into Putin’s hand; Zelensky is to smart for that. As discussed, sit back with that sweet NATO artillery, intelligence, and air defense and call in artillery strikes on anything close to the border.
  2. I’ve actually been worried that the munitions the Ukrainians have been obtaining from the Russians would be rigged. Supposedly at some point in Vietnam when our guys would find a VC ammo dump, we would rig some of the stuff to blow immediately upon use (no fuse) but then put back to look undisturbed as a psyop so the VC would be suspicious of any of their ammo dumps that had been unattended.
  3. Orcs pulling back and abandoning the spoils of war: http://
  4. Eliminating orc column with artillery, maybe mines, etc. Warning: Sound off. http://
  5. Haven’t seen this yes - a perfect flip and landing on this turret in Mariupol:
  6. This is where I’m at, they may still sell 80%+ of their usual amount of O&G, but they are still losing a good amount of top line revenue there, I’d guess at least 10-20%. Then the supply chain of everything else being screwed, setting money on fire in Ukraine, ~30k dead soldiers, exposing their tech is shit, etc. It will take decades for Russia to recover (probably never to reach this strength of military numbers again). The skimming of oligarchs may go down this year, injecting a hidden revenue stream back into the economy. Every billion counts at this point.
  7. I would say Bonnie was one of the US’s first sex symbols (in a modern sense). She was hot, photogenic, had style, and a ride-or-die / “F the banks” attitude that spoke to the zeitgeist. That’s probably a big reason why they made it so long, the LEOs kinda dug her to a degree and didn’t really want to gun down the “it girl” of the time. Good trigger discipline too.
  8. I’m not an economist, but I don’t see how Russia is only going to have a ~8-12% GDP reduction this year. I definitely don’t understand the Russian economy, but I understand moving product, and when your biggest customers stop buying, shit goes bad fast. Here’s some year 2020 GDP reductions. Those 12-18% numbers sound more like what I think Russia is cruising for. Lose most of your external revenue that props everything up and have to rely on crappy internal economics, FAFO.
  9. From that twitter thread. Is this where Ramjet got his Bert meme, or did Al Qaeda steal a photoshop from Ramjet?
  10. Also, the hammer and sickle on the tank is the Chef’s Kiss.
  11. Turret’s popped, tank is made from paper mache, Crew is terrified, stereotypical Rooskie pushing them where they don’t want to be, Russian public is nonplussed/not interested. It’s perfect.
  12. Accurate depiction of current state of affairs: http://
  13. Drones dropping grenades on Orc positions. Not as satisfying as the sunroof shot, but that was probably a high point not to be reached again. The crazy thing to me is that the Orcs still don’t look up to try and see the drones, they either assume it’s mortar fire or haven’t gotten the message. http://
  14. James Vasques’ boys rolled the tracked vehicle they had purloined. Apparently this Russian armor is just looking for a place to roll, haha. One minor injury he says in the thread. http://
  15. http:// https://v.redd.it/k54g0epnwnx81/HLSPlaylist.m3u8?a=1654574986,OThiN2I3NDVkZDk3NGZiMDQ1YTNhMjUzMzAwZmE5NzYwZjgxOTY5MDM4OWE5ZjRkN2JhOTE0ZjZmZGRiNmEwNg%3D%3D&v=1&f=hd&utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&utm_term=link
  16. burning enlistment station in Russia with Molotovs: http://
  17. Russian video showing the operation of a T-72, including the loading of the carrousel with ammo. It really is right under the crew. Yikes. http://
  18. Decent ATGM hit on a moving vehicle with orc bailing out in this one: http://
  19. Ukrainian artillery chasing Orc infantry around. This had to be terrifying. http://
  20. Ask, and you shall receive: http:// https://v.redd.it/70sit89w0gx81/HLSPlaylist.m3u8?f=sd&v=1&a=1654400168,MmQ4ZWRhNTdlODdhM2M0ZjMyODUxMjBkZjQ4ZmUzY2MyMTY5OWVhNDZjMGQwMTNhN2E2YzI1YmJkNDBkNDllOA%3D%3D&utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf
