I saw that and my first thought was the helicopter is heading for a crash right on top of the guy who fired the rocket!

Yeah, that's the one I saw, of anyone got it of that shit then credit to the designers, but that looked pretty fucking fatal.

In other rumours floating around:
Ukranian building controller sees russian troops falling to do leg day by taking the stairs, cuts off power to the lifts, goes for a smoke:


I'd expect it's a hydraulic winching system, and he threw the breaker for just that, not the entire building.

And likely propaganda, but typically on brand - apparently an old woman in a high rise building saw a Russian drone buzzing about (I assume DJI phantom esque, not Reaper esque) and knocked that shit out of the sky with a jar of pickles, as you do. No corroborating imagery for that one, just a story going around the social medias.

Woah

Oh, and before a zoom meeting with US politicians, Ukrainian security told them, explicitly, to not publicly reveal that they were on a zoom meeting, live, with Zelensky. It would obviously run the risk of showing Russian intelligence that Zelensky was in one place, with an internet connection, etc and they are obviously trying to keep his movements and locations a very closely guarded secret.

Of course two republican senators ignored that and took pictures of the zoom meeting, and tweeted them during the meeting.

I don't think either of them are smart enough to be double agents, but they're definitely dumb enough to literally risk the life of a foreign leader to get social media clout.

Again; deeply unserious people.

Those images of the bombed-out towns & cities in Ukraine are utterly f*cking depressing and tragic. I still find it really strange to see footage from there and compute that its happening while I go about my daily life. Not sure why.

These are the same countrymen who revealed where prince harry was in Afghanistan so they have zero idea or operational secrecy

It's almost like if you can't pass some kind of in moderately in depth security clearance, and can't follow basic operational security training, you shouldn't be allowed to stand for national government. At any level.

Rubio and Daines should have had security access revoked, and their states making plans for a snap election, with the hour of those tweets coming out

Germany joins the social media war.

Advanced Russian armour seen here.

How is a fighter pilot so fat And shouldn’t he be wearing a G suit?

Sky news guess trying to get vox pops from people who have literally just been taken from a full on conflict zone, in the process blocking entry to a bus full of refugees, and karma has one of its rare moments of successfully making them look like fucking idiots.

Or more specifically, one stoner undermines the ghoullery.



Good on that man.

Also, anon have rather humped the FSBs website.

Likely a nothing burger operationally, but still funny.

Verified I can't reach it from my location, either. Get a timeout.



Various 'down for me or everyone' sites suggest it's been down most of today.

I posted that earlier but it's still absolute quality.

Speaking of absolute quality, I laughed so hard at this I almost puked. That might be down to the wine, but still - Christ alive.

More quality.....satire? I don't think I know what this is.

Viz is providing articles to the Sunday Sport ??

The Sunday Sport had being doing this shit for years, but that one really got me going.

Oh, I'm not complaining ! I'm hoping it's getting cross posted all over Ukraine !

"But Richie was still inside the car. The rounds were ploughing into the car every time he moved. He was actually being protected by the engine block - he knew that."

Yeah, fck all of that
