No, this is not war destruction in Ukraine. This is in peaceful Russia. There are people living there, as you can see from the TV dishes.

This is how they live normally in Russia.

Of course, they don’t mind dying.

Ukrainian soldiers preparing for the counteroffensive:

In the Russian town of Shebekino that’s under the assault from the nationalist guerrillas, the police forces disbanded and massive looting has begun. Gangs of marauders are terrorizing the civilian population.

The last time that the guerrillas crossed the border into Russia, they had to withdraw because the regular army started bombing their own civilian population. These are Russian nationalists, so they don’t want their own people to suffer. But these aren’t people who are capable of organizing themselves and maintaining order.

By the way, in the neighboring Ukrainian city of Kharkiv that’s been bombed regularly for over a year, there’s been no looting. Businesses are open and serving customers. Municipal services are functioning well.

A national consciousness is the best antidote from chaos, disorder, and marauding. People perceive their country, city and street as their own and don’t want to damage them.

Let the grim determination of this animal accompany us in all our endeavors.

And yes, I’m pretty certain this is the first kitty pic I have ever posted in my life.

What I find infinitely funny is that the trans vogue is driven by white men.

These dudes truly have come up with an inventive way to go from the most henpecked category to the one that can bend ’em bitches over and have at them while everybody applauds.

I don’t know if anybody on here is following the attempts to share the movie What Is a Woman? on Twitter. It’s absolutely fascinating. Elon Musk clearly feels compelled to suppress the movie but can’t say so or explain why. The movie is very innocent. There’s literally nothing there that’s even mildly controversial by the standards of anybody who isn’t far to the left of Mao.

Elon Musk is fabulously rich. Why should he be so scared of simply letting the movie run? The guy is practically squirming, trying to wiggle out of taking down the “hate speech” designation on the movie.

I’m very curious who it is Musk is so reluctant to upset and why. There’s a bunch of “transwomen” among coders. The best coders, not some mediocre guys. Is Musk scared he won’t have a Twitter if he angers the ones working for him?

Russian nationalist guerrilla fighters have released their manifesto. You can find it here (in Russian, of course).

Read for yourself and decide what you think.

The moment I catch a cold and start dragging, social media plunge into offering me endless streams of ads for people over 60.

Yes, kick a person when she’s down, bastards. That’s a smart marketing strategy.

Between the ages of 6 and 9, a child begins to build his own inner world. (It can also be called subjectivity or the subconscious). Before that, he shares Mom’s.

During this time, children become secretive and start telling what adults perceive as lies. I’m not talking about imaginative inventions which appear as soon as a child begins to speak. I mean actual, purposeful lies. And this is a great thing.

Parents today aren’t too busy if you look at it from a historical perspective. Nobody has 11 kids and has to work in the fields all day. So people have a lot more energy and time to dedicate to formatting the children. Out of very good intentions, they start trying to eradicate the lies because they believe it’s their duty to raise an honest person.

As a result – and again, from very good and loving intentions – parents crash into this very new and still very tiny inner world that the child has created and start trying to manage it. The child ends up perceiving his inner life as a dangerous place. A place where he can never be left alone without being punished, humiliated and ordered about.

Such children grow up to be high-anxiety people. They develop ADHD and similar disorders. They have no idea what it even means to find refuge and comfort in their own thoughts, their own mind, their own inner lives. They’ll get addicted to screens because that helps to avoid being alone with their thoughts.

Every age of human development has its own goals. Learning to be honest is not the developmental goal for this crucial stretch between 6 and 9.

People who say “my child is 9 and has never lied to me” are either clueless (which is good) or tend to hover way too much (which is not good). I suggest getting a hobby and leave the kid be to develop freely and normally. As for inculcating honesty, instead of formatting the child, work on yourself. Become an honest person and teach by example.

Russian nationalist guerrillas are shelling the town of Shebekino in Russia. The regular Russian army has had to divert troops from the frontline with Ukraine and send them to defend Shebekino.

It’s an absolute genius strategy to use Russian nationalists to weaken the regular Russian forces as the Ukrainian offensive is unfolding.

Yet again, I’m stunned at the incredible historical development of Russian nationalists fighting to defend Ukraine’s sovereignty from Russia. When everything fails, you can count on nationalists to do the right thing. Even when it’s very hard.
