I think you should knock it off, too. We are the closest we’ve been to general war, and all that it implies, with the Russians since at least October 1962. I can only imagine what kind of pricks were running off at the mouth about those “damn Kennedys” or “how this is all Eisenhower’s fault” while in the middle of the crisis. There will be time for all of this later.
I’ve been singing this song to myself for two weeks now. I’m surprised it took this long for someone to post it on too hot. Thank you.
Sorry but after 4 years of stupid memes every time North Korea launched a missile I thought this is what we do in Too Hot.
No clue what this means...feels like a you can't fire us because we quit scenario From CNN live: "Russia withdraws from the Conference of European Constitutional Courts From Mariya Knight The Constitutional Court of Russia announced it has withdrawn from the Conference of Constitutional Courts of Europe (CECC) as of March 5, the court said in a statement posted on its website on Wednesday. Russian state media said that the Russian Constitutional Court’s withdrawal comes after the CECC chairman emailed ballots on March 4 to all members of the organization members to vote on terminating or suspending the Russian Constitutional Court's membership and associated membership of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Belarus."
Question...how is the UN calculating deaths/casualties versus the Ukranians? Numbers aren't close "Mariupol officials say about 1,300 civilians have been killed in the city since start of Russian invasion From CNN's Tim Lister in Kyiv Two officials in the besieged city of Mariupol in southern Ukraine say that about 1,300 civilians there have been killed since the Russian invasion began." Is the UN counting only direct firing, or needs a physical body (may be harder if person got blown up)? Is it only if a UN representative sees the body?
Ukranian soldiers playing checkers with Molotov cocktails (allegedly but funny & just wow at the same time if true)
The threat of nuclear war and their willingness to throw bodies at the conflict like zombies in the Walking Dead.
To paraphrase Jim Halpert from The Office: "Say what you want about [Donald Trump], but he never did that."
I thought the MOAB was thermobaric, but apparently I misremembered. It was the Russian FOAB that was thermobaric.
At the risk of claims of false equivalency, I am reminded of this classic piece from who was at the time perhaps our most gifted essayist: Dead Iraqis
Summed up, War is hell Why I smdh at the screaming of “war crimes “ in the media already. Take a deep breath and look around folks.
Dont worry, I got the business when someone brought up the 'Highway of Death' and I called it one of America's more blatant war crimes. I walked so you could run.
Of course *rolling my eyes* cnn live "Russia claims there were combat positions at bombed hospital From CNN's Tim Lister in Kyiv Several hours before the maternity and children's hospital in Mariupol was bombed, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova accused Ukraine of establishing combat positions at the hospital. At her regular briefing, Zakharova said that "in Mariupol, the Ukrainian national battalions, having expelled the staff and patients from the maternity hospital, equipped combat positions in it." She went on to claim that there were "numerous videos refuting Ukrainian fakes, confirming Kyiv's crimes against its citizens are in abundance in the public domain." Video from the hospital after the bombing clearly showed there were both patients and staff there, including heavily pregnant women who were carried from the hospital."
Cnn live "Ukraine’s Zelensky calls Putin’s nuclear threats a “bluff” From CNN’s Sugam Pokharel, Sharon Braithwaite and Chris Stern Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called Russian President Vladimir Putin's threat to resort to nuclear weapons a “bluff.” "I think that the threat of nuclear war is a bluff. It’s one thing to be a murderer. It’s another to commit suicide,” Zelensky said in an interview with prominent German newspaper Die Zeit, published on Wednesday. ..... Zelensky went on to say that Putin’s nuclear threat “shows a weakness.” "You only threaten the use of nuclear weapons when nothing else is working,” Zelensky said. “Every use of nuclear weapons means the end for all sides, not just for the person using them.”"
Still not operating normally...will it ever?

Coinbase finally getting on board, banning specific addresses/people. Ukraine had asked for blanket ban but they said only crypto accounts specifically on a sanction list would be blocked. Coinbase blocks over 25,000 Russian-linked crypto addresses
