Carrion birds circling ukraine

If the west actually have a shit about the ukrainian people and state they would be forcing their creditors to eat shit and take a haircut. Of course they don't though, ability to extract profit from whatever rump state is left of the country is the consolation prize for not getting to balkanize Russia

The latest simplicius focuses on military matters and so is worth reading. It includes the ISW finally catching up to fall 2022 and an interesting thread by a ukrainian soldier about Russian assault tactics

My cat broke my glasses today. I have since declared her a wrecker and a revisionist.

They are thinking short term in the sense of "what is going to get me through this week". At best they are thinking quarterly, and since it's only start of July, their imagination doesn't extend to the election yet.

Sounds like the isw's version of trump's debate talking points

If you cut off a chicken's head, it will still act like a chicken.

This is literally the stupidest thing I've ever read on hexbear.

How exactly is poultry a grey area? Have you met birds before? I hear what you're saying about oysters (even though I disagree), but making the same case for fish/octopus let alone birds is pretty fucking mind blowing.

I firmly believe that any grad student should be able to explain their research in broad layperson terms. If the only thing a graduate can do to explain their research is copy paste the abstract of their thesis, that reflects very badly on the student. I have more faith in marxisthayaca

For example, my grad studies were on recovering valuable materials out of industrial waste.
