    I don't know if they'll be enough to hold them, but from what i'm seeing on r/combatfootage the Ukrainians seem to be doing a lot of damage to the Russian so far, probably more than some expected. Lots of videos mi-8s and su-25s dodging Ukranian MANPADS and Russian armor on fire.

    Alrighty, thinking we should maybe create a dedicated thread for this conflict, as I just realized that these posts will crowd out any domestic politic posts, especially since this conflict will last a while

  5. Remember when TJStarr posted about how quirky and fun the "Jewish themed" gentile-run deli in Kyiv was? Please don't post that fucking dork
     
  6. Claims that these are Ukrainian jets??:




    Tone of this account is not exactly professional but haven't seen anything making me not trust them. They're pretty measured, don't seem post bullshit

    @Jason Tate thoughts on whether to keep Ukraine updates in here or in a separate thread?
     
  10. I suppose I can see both sides. We're probably not likely to keep up this pace/volume for too long.

    With the Ukraine stuff we just either need a trigger warning or to log off or probably both, last night was a nadir for twitter

  20. You can go back a bit to see their only other post in the thread, which was quite lengthy and I believe started with indignation toward some of the mention of Neo-Nazi elements in Ukraine. This all sucks.
