Ban-worthy.

Totally.

I don't see what the big dill is. Why would that joke leave you sour?

 

[lecoqsportif]

Some people just like to ferment unrest.

I guess its hard to keep your feelings jarred up for a long time.

These are some of the worst jokes I've ever seen.

Really makes you relish the good ones.

 

[MindzEye]

Unfortunately, comedy just isn't my bread and butter.

Anywho, it looks like Wagner’s near coup has prompted the Tsarist court to do a sweep of hard right hammerheads and Z fanatic warmongers. Vlad Vexler has been saying Putin’s only internal menace is from the right.

Ukraine massively increased the size of their bridgehead near Oleshky. Russia has retreated from the large island between Kherson and Oleshky entirely. The Ukrainians have put part of the town itself under artillery fire control and are rumoured to have a control point on the Oleshky side of the 2nd river (a 100m wide river called the Konka), just west of Oleshky.

That's the front to watch for breakthrough. The Russian garrison there is green, poorly equipped, poorly trained. The entire region is very poorly defended compared to the eastern front, flat and dry.

so I just found Tavria on the map and it is like 10s of kms further behind Russian lines than any previous report of Ukrainian progress that I've seen so far... in the Zap region no less.
