I hope the Ukrainians are in a position to give lots of gifts this year. For myself, I'd like a new U-Gears kit, and I hope the Russians get a nice 365-day advent calendar with a fresh rear end whipping in each slot.

I wonder how much of that is Putin, and how much is the potential successors jockeying for position.

At this point, I think the latter is more likely. I wonder when Putin will end up falling out of a window after shooting himself twice in the back of his head (due to sadbrains of course) after accidentally ingesting polonium

Isn’t there effectively a cap on oil prices somewhere south of $100 a barrel due to the Canadian oil sands becoming profitable around there?

More or less, the oil sands can’t get to market very easily, it’s a very sour crude (so it’s not great for making eg gasoline) and production can’t ramp up instantly.

How sour is sour. Can I put tar through steam crackers and water gas shift to spit out sulfur and hydrogen? I can imagine an option where we just reform the tar directly to hydrogen for liquidation or piping for use rather than trying to process it to refined petrol

It's a dumb poo poo post by Medvedev, not sure why some OSINT account would spend time "debunking" what's essentially someone posting their Kaiserreich head canon lore.

As if it wasn't obvious with his first post, you dull minded idiots just can't track daddy Elons subtle sarcasm. Paraphrased, but the gist of comments I've seen elsewhere this morning. *4-5 hours later, after someone got through to him and told him to do damage control.

Wondering if more than anything if a prolonged slump in energy prices is the thing that gets Putin kicked out of office and ends the war.
