kinda FREAKING OUT about the nukes.

 

Some detail on Putin’s order to adjust readiness status for “deterrence forces.” It’s not as simple as mobilizing nukes but I think the details make it worse :[

 

Not seeing this anywhere else

 

its on Twitter too

 

Russia-Ukraine latest: Vladimir Putin puts nuclear deterrent forces on high alert over Nato's 'unfriendly' sanctions

I would never bring bullshit into this thread but here you go anyway, the Telegraph is reputable enough I hope.

 

I think this is accurate to a degree, but the fact that one of our major parties can’t decide if they’re for the invaders or not is a bit of a wrinkle haha

Either way though, the pent-up readiness to get *excited* to root for a side in a war like this (which requires deep ignorance, as it’s exciting only if you don’t see any of the big picture) is just as toxic a problem in the US.

 

Did anyone else just learn this morning that this guy on the right is Kyiv’s mayor? Dr. Ironfist is not someone I would f with.

 

Man this clip has everything. All the Trump classics

 

What good is having control of a country if you nuke it back to the stone age

 

I’ve been thinking all the pro-Putin/Russia shit Trump has said and done and there’s no denying now that dude was a Russian puppet even back then. Like I really do think now that Russia has spent years trying to establish a puppet government with the GOP and they’ve worked together in varying capacities to accomplish it, it all makes sense in hindsight.

 

delightful

 

The legend only grows

 

Really would love to know what Biden is doing that independents don’t like lol

 

Not canceling my fucking student loans

 

He still owes us all $600 of course he’s going to be unpopular

 

between special deterrence postures or whatever the fuck Putin said And the absolute psychotics demanding a no fly zone in Ukraine I am getting really scared

 

not great that a blue check Ukrainian national guard account tweeted this imo!

 

I had quite the panic attack gotta say.

 

I overpaid the balance of my student loan by a penny. Can I put it in collection against the company? Garnish their wages perhaps?
