Might be the same brand-new S-400 system that a drunk driver crashed into a ditch earlier:

Guess it was being towed for repairs before that bridge attacked it in a vulnerable state.

My theory is that the drone attack was actually an assassination attempt on Putin. You see that giant dome is actually a storage tank for Putin's horse smoothies, and the guy seen climbing up to the top was Putin himself going to the faucet for a midnight snack.

The Russian Federation is working to keep relations with the United States from falling into the abyss of open armed conflict, - said Deputy Russian Foreign Minister Ryabkov. According to him, Russia is ready to use all means so that no one is allowed to encroach on the security of the country's leadership.

You aren't going to get the latest model unless you are well off via Dubai or something (or wait 6months) but lower models will be easy enough tbh. Apple blocking access to itunes would of been a bigger hit tbh

I guess I just mean if russia is kind of like, not even the western world, but everywhere really, sanctions on the things the middle class want would surely gently caress you up. Like if whatsapp was pulled from the UK because politicians are dumb, the government would fall in a week.

My first encounter with Cake Boss was coming across a cutout of him in a supermarket and my instant visceral reaction was to snarl "gently caress YOU!" at the inanimate object proclaiming itself to be "Cake Boss." So most likely.

It was a reaction to a speech the Russians were giving at a thing when the Ukrainians interrupted their speech. They got mad and tried to retaliate by taking the flag.

It's a perfect metaphor for the special military operation.

Old gently caress tries to steal something that isn't his. Gets humiliated. Does a woe is me act. Falls down stairs and shits himself.

a russian government representative treating ukrainians like petulant children having a tantrum - that flag snatch was the most irritated paternalistic looking poo poo i've seen in a while and one reason why the immediate consequences were so funny - has basically been the default operating mode for Russia for the past 200 years at least

Tough poo poo for the Russians. Maybe they shouldn't murder children if they don't want to get called out for it when it's inconvenient.

“Shoigu! Gerasimov! Where are the loving shells!”

“Look at them, you bitches! (…) you sit in expensive clubs (…) your children make YouTube videos (…) you think you have the right to dispose of their [Wagner fighters] lives (…) they came here as volunteers and died so you could gorge yourselves in your offices.”

I'm assuming a full translation will be coming out soon presumably before Prigozhin falls out a window.

The initial part of the vid showing Wagner corpses was omitted but can be found elsewhere. The edited vid is embedded in the tweet below.

did you know that russian nationalists were responsible for the breakup of the Bloodhound Gang?

if you remember, they're known for their crude stage antics and aren't exactly housebroken.

10 years ago they toured eastern Europe and caused a bit of an uproar in Kyiv already, because Evil Jared Hasselhoff, the bass player, peed on a Ukrainian flag. That was dealt with an apology and a fine (I'm not even sure about the latter).

Later in Odessa Mr. Hasselhoff was handed a Russian flag, which he put down his pants. Much to the delight of the local crowd. A video made its rounds and when the band arrived in Russia, they were already greeted with an angry mob, who rather demanded blood than an apology. The standard life-threatening demeanor of a Russian protest.

The whole band had to be escorted to the airport, cancelled the rest of the tour and never toured again afterwards. Another album was left unfinished.

I can't help but think that if he truly cared about his troops, he'd pull them out of Ukraine. Or is Wagner so interlinked with the RUAF that he can't do that?
