@th3j35t3r can confirm, I'm folks

@WeThePeople anyway we have of verifying this?

@Render I get this is probably a joke, but I've got family members saying they think Ukraine will invade Russia after this.

I've been trying to explain to them that Ukraine is far from being in the position of a sustained invasion, let alone would be taking the Russians to their home turf and the disadvantages associated with that. Though, I'd love to see Putler get his very public trial and punishment.

@mcfate obligatory old meme usage is obligatory

@Render not sounding good for the defenders. Any word on reinforcements? There was some warning this attack would come

Can get that in Canada here for relatively cheap. I'm more for bolt action myself though.

@Anemone or else what

@th3j35t3r I've had very weird success with raid, I don't know if I did mine correctly at all but my PC likes to take a second try to boot sometimes, and when it does boot the boot record says something like "can't find hard drive" shortly before booting to windows lol

If I have to shut the PC down in an emergency or the power goes out, it goes into a repair mode where it checks that both volumes of the raid (mirrored 2 TB drives) are still duplicated. Slows the whole thing down for hours.

I attempted a meme :D

@mcfate lol I mean it's easy social engineering, he already perfected it when he was backing Trump's campaign lol

@Render the first love of my life was a 1965 Mustang Fastback in much worse shape than I understood. It was one of those used car dealership deals where it will probably fall apart in a week after you buy it, but man I went by that lot every single day to oggle that sexy black car lol

@th3j35t3r that guy is now my spirit animal

Yeesh this is getting crazy

@WeThePeople politicians dying of old age while in office is just morally wrong. They shouldn't be allowed in office past 60 lol

@mcfate okay but I legit do not know who he is

@th3j35t3r I wonder what he's going to label them as

@WeThePeople identifying in what way?

To paraphrase the beginning of Martin Niemöller's famous poem:

"First they came for the Ukrainians, and I did not speak out - because I was not a Ukrainian"

Spoiler alert, the ending of the poem is about the Nazis coming for everyone eventually, because people just refused to participate in stopping them early.

I really, really hope we don't make this mistake again.
