Ok, really hard to say if something is *actually* going down, but it does seem like there's at the very least some sort of social media info war going on if nothing else.

From Meduza:

quote:

Journalists with publication Zerkalo reached the local police department in Rostov-on-Don. Asked whether the situation there could get worse overnight, the dispatcher said “We’re scared ourselves. I don’t know. No one is telling anyone anything. Everything is unclear.” The dispatcher added “I’m afraid there’s no one [to call for more information]. Watch the news and listen to what they say.”

Your judgement on "good sources" is often a little bit off, buddy. There's been very little to no reliable info on actual fighting. And there's definitely not a 50km Wagner column in existence anywhere.

Please let me be wrong on that last one.

I've been catching up on my Civie 11 videos and I just learned that one of the original level designers of Duke Nukem 3D lives in Russia. Goes by the name Levelord. Anyone know anything about this and how is he doing?

Let them suffer. If this goes hot, and POCCNR does end up with a civil war, even if they don't implode because of it, the tankie wailing and gnashing of teeth will be beyond all laughs.

Yeah until I see Prigozin on a tank shelling the parliament I'm a bit skeptical but unless the CIA hacked all the telegram and whatsaps, it seems that at the very least there's a in fact serious attempt of ousting MoD leadership.

I think it's worth noting that a lot of the pro-Z telegrams are likely run directly by Prigozhin guys/Wagner, just like Prigozhin ran a lot of outward-facing media stuff over the last decade, so they may be pretty unreliable in terms of what's happening right now like the 80km convoy moving into Rostov, but it's still a big deal that they're saying this stuff

So basically what we know is that dick measurement contest between two Russian generals has now caused infighting, if not an actual uprising in the Russian front?

They really are bringing back the classics from the Imperial Russian tsarist era.

Sure, I know Levelord, if you played mid 90’s FPS, he was a known person, but I had no idea they live in Russia. Expat?
