From David Sedaris on Trump vs Biden: "I think​ of being​ on an airplane.​ The flight attendant comes​ down the aisle​ with her food cart and, eventually,​ parks​ it beside my seat.​ “Can I inter​est you in the chick​en?​” she asks.​ “Or would​ you prefer the platter of shit with bits of broke​n glass​ in it?" To be undecided in this elect​ion is to pause​ for a moment and then ask how the chick​en is cooked.”

One of the most egregious Russian war crimes in Ukraine is the abduction of children

Moscow bank branches have run out of cash In the morning, a correspondent from the Moscow Times visited almost two dozen branches of large banks (mainly Sberbank, but also Alfa and Avangard), but none of them had dollars. So that the orcs can see a dollar again, I have included a photo. 😂

Asking Eurovision fans in Australia for support of the Ukrainian entry

Western folks, if you have ever wondered how school was during the commie regime, here is my experience which was more or less the same across the entire Soviet Union + the Warsaw Pact. The classes usually started at 7 AM, we used to form a column in the schoolyard and sing the anthem (a praise to the everlasting communist era) before we start. We all had the same uniforms, after all, communism promotes equality, right? Too bad all it has to offer is equality in poverty. Once entered the classroom, the child was entirely at the teacher's mercy. Some teachers were normal people, no different than any teacher nowadays, but others were not so good and since beating was totally allowed and even encouraged (spare the rod, spoil the child) they used to take advantage of that privilege. The most common form of punishment was hitting the palms with a ruler or a plastic rod. Sometimes the head. Pulling the hair or face slapping was also common. Since my handwriting has always been ugly I experienced all the above. The first page of every textbook was the picture of our "great and wise leader" which has to be kept clean. I once accidentally spew some ink on it. A real tradegy. I took the worst beating I can remember from both the teacher and the school principal who immediately called the secret police to question my father in order to find out whether it was an accident or a deliberate act of disobedience. My father was detained and questioned for 24 hours. I was in the 4th grade when the Revolution came and the nightmare was finally over. I pulled that portrait from the textbook, threw it on the ground and pissed on it. My advice to you: be careful who you vote for because democracy is very fragile. You have the power to vote for its demise. This is its main weakness: you can democratically elect a dictatorship but not the other way around!

@IneBackIversen Gunther is using a #NAFO blocklist and Silver is Ivan the used car salesman and one of Elmo’s favorite conspi guys (which of course is not news to you), so you can safely take your bat to more than the narrative… These guys and their crowd are literally #infowar storm troops…

🧵1) Is this on?🎙️ Who’s ready for a history lesson on “life during war” by a European chick with a degree in entertainment that has spent the last few years working in a warzone? No offense America, I’m targeting this narrative, not you. Let’s be smart & share some knowledge.

Ukrainian soldiers getting ready to move to the front line. Don’t FORGET to wish them victory & safety 🙏
