A CNN article says that there are Ukrainian staff.
So, the Russians are probably planning to retreat.
@XSGeek
Amen!
If we could grow bacon, I think all of mankind would suddenly get along.
What a mess of a country:

Empathy is everywhere.
Animal Rights are just around the corner.
Start getting used to plant-based beef.
@MrGoat
Any idea if there were Ukrainian staff still in place?
If so, then it could be evidence that the RU army is definitely pulling out and not that there is an inevitable leak.
@voltronic
This is explicitly prohibited in San Francisco.
It's unfortunate because most of the troublemakers are coming from the east bay cities. Wish there was a more efficient process to still do this with a warrant.

Just because the word "Christian" is in the name does not mean it has a responsibility to follow a moral code.
They use it as a source of authority; of power. There is no compassion involved in the identity.

How will these countries ever get traction and develop an efficient infrastructure if everything is either shaken to the ground or washed away?

This is a fantastic thread about a concept I hadn't heard before: White Innocence.
"This “argument” - basically: it can’t be fascism if it’s supported by more than just a few irrelevant fringe figures - is not only historically illiterate, but also indicative of how pervasive the dogma of white innocence is, how severely it distorts the discourse."

HUGE counter-offensive underway!
"Ukrainian troops have taken four villages back from Russian occupation in the south near the city of Kherson"
"...village names are Nova Dmytrivka, Arkhanhel’s’ke, Tomyna Balka and Pravdyne."

@Museek
I've never encountered something that I couldn't be simplified and, eventually, understood.
The hard part is how to break it down.
Then you know what to tackle first.

Concentrate every minute like a Roman— like a man— on doing what’s in front of you with precise and genuine seriousness, tenderly, willingly, with justice. And on freeing yourself from all other distractions. Yes, you can— if you do everything as if it were the last thing you were doing in your life, and stop being aimless, stop letting your emotions override what your mind tells you, stop being hypocritical, self-centered, irritable.

Leave it to Florida to have 38K people in one district willing to vote for a 29 y/o facist.
What an incredible story about the Battle of Kyiv. This will be a movie someday. It is full of heroes:

Ya think?!
Yikes!
These are heat signatures around the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in Ukraine. They could be shelling. Or it could be even worse.
