  • War in Ukraine: Episode 275

    This week, vatniks were busy writing about Russia’s future after the war and how it should function – which is in stark contrast with reality and how this failed state actually functions. We also have a description of how exactly Russian assaults look like. And I might be mistaken here, but a death rate of 179/180 of a squad isn’t really a good thing.

  • War in Ukraine: Episode 274

    Russian economical voes have caught up to it's healthcare industry - abulances are woefully slow and certain meds are unavailable. (MD's listening to this will have a blast.) Also, a long letter from Girkin and the regular vatnik gloom.

  • War in Ukraine: Episode 273

    Welcome to the...ermm...Orange Border, I suppose. I continue to work here, as the Russian economy is still in the mud - and vatniks are dreading any pause in the war, as they feel that their whole army will collapse. Oh, also at the end, Finns did a funny thing again.

  • War in Ukraine: Episode 272

    Vatniks are confused about Russia's relationship with the USA, Putin's secret service officers get paid 900$ per month so have to become part-time delivery workers and Ukraine has a clear superiority in drones.

  • The end of the world as we know it. (But we'll be fine.)

    I was supposed to have a day off today, but then Trump and Vance literally destroyed the geopolitical, rules-based order of the world that had been in place since the end of WW2. However, Happiness is Mandatory. Things are going be rough, but not catastrophic.

  • Flow - a miracle from Latvia

    I made this breather episode about a truly great animated movie from Latvia that's got a golden globe and is now nominated for an Oscar, because it is truly a masterpiece and I highly recommend it to everyone. I just did not know I'd post it in an evening as fucked up as this one.
