Kremlin aide Ushakov says ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ agreed to some parts, but Putin is critical or negative on others.


In reference to the recent Ukraine "talks" in Moscow, German foreign policy expert Roderich Kiesewetter made following statements:

"The current talks between the US and Russia are nothing but sham negotiations that take place over our heads. Yet, Europe is not powerless.

in reply to Tendar

Anyone who fears escalation fails to recognize that Putin is already waging this war against us through sabotage and hybrid attacks. We have squandered months waiting on the US, which is now withdrawing from its protective role.
in reply to Tendar

It is up to the Europeans: Only if we take our security into our own hands and confront Putin with maximum resolve and strength can we force him to back down. Any hesitation or appeasement, or one-sided pressure on the attacked Ukraine, will only broaden the war."

According to Ukrainian Navy Spokesperson Dmytro Pletenchuk, the story of the Russian tanker Midvolga 2 seems more like a provocation than a valid incident. Pletenchuk noted conflicting reports from Russia, at first they said the tanker was sailing from Moscow to Georgia, then changed to claiming it left from Yalta. The strange 150โ€‘nauticalโ€‘mile detour, shifting narratives, and the nature of the wreckage all suggest a staged provocation rather than a legitimate route or accident.

Over 40,000 people โ€” 470 buildings โ€” are now without heat.



๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ Attacks by Russian forces have knocked the Kherson TPP out of operation, the plant suffered heavy damage after waves of drone, artillery, and other strikes. Key facilities and equipment were hit, forcing its shutdown. As a result, 470 buildings and more than 40,500 residents are left without heating.


Ukrainian children abducted by Russia are being sent to military camps in North Korea.

Ukrainian drones struck Russiaโ€™s Stavropol region and the city of Orel overnight. A fire broke out near the Nevinnomyssky Azot chemical plant, reportedly hit in the attack. In Orel, local sources also suggest a strike on the cityโ€™s thermal power plant.


Satellite images and analysis by Radio Svoboda reveal that this fall Ukrainian Armed Forces struckโ€ฏoverโ€ฏ50 strategic Russian energy and defense facilities, from refineries and oil depots to armsโ€‘production plants.

Analysts say this wave of hits hasnโ€™t been seen at such scale before and is already forcing Russia to divert resources for extra protection, while suffering critical fuel and munitions shortages.

GAS(n.1)

1650s, from Dutch gas, probably from Greek khaos "empty space" (see chaos). The sound of Dutch "g" is roughly equivalent to that of Greek "kh." First used by Flemish chemist J.B. van Helmont (1577-1644), probably influenced by Paracelsus, who used khaos in an occult sense of "proper elements of spirits" or "ultra-rarified water," which was van Helmont's definition of gas.

in reply to fbusc

Questa cosa mi ha fatto entrare in un tunnel... Cercando van Helmont su wikipedia (faccio riferimento a quella in inglese perchรฉ spesso รจ meglio) ho trovato questo passaggio mooolto curioso:

Van Helmont described a recipe for the spontaneous generation of mice (a piece of dirty cloth plus wheat for 21 days) and scorpions (basil, placed between two bricks and left in sunlight). His notes suggest he may have attempted to do these things.


Che tradotto รจ

Van Helmont descrisse una ricetta per la generazione spontanea dei topi (un pezzo di stoffa sporca piรน grano per 21 giorni) e degli scorpioni (basilico posto tra due mattoni e lasciato alla luce del sole). I suoi appunti suggeriscono che potrebbe aver tentato davvero di fare queste cose.


รˆ una delle cose piรน assurde che ho sentito negli ultimi anni. E per fortuna che veniva da un scienziato...
