Russians spending days in queues exchanging the news - this must be torturing Putin
⛽Kremlin is finding it harder and harder to deceive its own people. Millions of Russians now spend days in gasoline queues, where they exchange news instead of Kremlin propaganda. From Moscow to Irkutsk, the fuel crisis reflects Ukraine’s reported 42% reduction in Russia’s oil production.
Turning a fuel shortage into grumpy gatherings
Here's what Russians are talking about while waiting in line for gasoline: "They're saying: 'What the hell do we need your Crimea for?What the hell do we need these Ukrainians for,who are causing us all problems?’ They're angry with the authorities, these conversations are happening more&more often"
I don’t often agree with David Say-no-more but his suggestion is spot on that BT should “stop being a d…head” 😂😆😆
Spectacular own goal
#FriendlyFire A new video shows that one of the most spectacular explosions at the Moscow refinery was not caused by a Ukrainian drone after all. A Russian air defence missile can be seen hitting the complex. Incompetence, or corruption leading to ill-maintained systems. Or both!
Most protected city in world attacks it’s own fuel tank for mega photo op 😂😂😂
A Russian air defense missile blows up a fuel tank at the Moscow Oil Refinery following a failed attempt to shoot down a Ukrainian drone.
This morning's keynote at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, "Drone Sanctions and their effect on the Russian oil industry", has started. Bonus: the keynote is streaming online, for free. I hope all of the attendees are taking detailed notes.
The entire city of Saint Petersburg, Russia, received a front row seat for the destruction of the local oil terminal. This includes also the attendees of St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF), which will start today.
Project 2025 Architect: We proposed 1,913 recommendations for Project 2025. 1,055 have been implemented. The person who deserves credit for that is Donald J. Trump.
All words found under 1min💫 I didn’t think this would ever happen
Important reminder from Foreign Minister Sikorski: ❗️Vladimir Putin is a man whose word and whose signature cannot be trusted. He lied to us repeatedly. These are not my men in the Crimea, remember? I have absolutely no intention of invading Ukraine.
Why would Russia fire an Oreshnik IRBM at a bunch of garages in Bila Tserkva in Ukraine? Because they were aiming for a nearby air base, but their missile's targeting is crap.
The "Falcon" garage complex hit by fascist Russia's Oreshnik IRBM is 250-500 m away from the Bila Tserkva airbase (presumed target). That's well outside the Oreshnik's assumed CEP. Most probably, the Oreshnik is even more inaccurate than experts previously believed.
Russia hit a dead-end on the battlefield, so it terrorizes Ukraine with deliberate strikes on city centres. These are abhorrent acts of terror meant to kill as many civilians as possible. (1/2)
Stephen Colbert and David Letterman throwing things off the Ed Sullivan Theater. Colbert: “Anything you’d like to say, Dave?” Letterman: “In the words of the great Edward R. Murrow to CBS: ‘Good night and good luck, motherfuckers.’”
Today marks Nakba Day, an annual day of remembrance to commemorate the expulsion of more than 700,000 Palestinians between 1947 and 1949 during the creation of the State of Israel and the year that followed. Inea is a New Yorker and a Nakba survivor. She shared her story with us.
France is mandating solar panels on every large commercial car park in the country — turning millions of square metres of idle asphalt into one of Europe's most productive clean energy assets. I have been mentioning this for months - they are shooting up on all the supermarket car parks.
NZ techies - any ideas on good domain hosts? We need to sort out our family domain (.com). We've had it hosted with Google since it was cheap and benign. Now it is neither. @dialogcrm.bsky.social any current favs? @markhansen.co.nz any update on 2023 table/post?

Ben Cohen, co-founder of Ben & Jerry's, was arrested after confronting Robert F Kennedy Jr about Gaza during a hearing on Capitol Hill: “Congress sent the bombs that kill children in Gaza and paid for them with cuts to Medicaid,” he shouted before his arrest. Follow me if you think this is BS arrest
Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.
This is really important and urgent. Please watch, amplify and share widely across platforms. Working hard on saving these people. Every voice and every day counts. Thank you, @realjakebroe.bsky.social, for all that you do and keep doing.
Ukrainians living in the occupied territories of Kherson are being targeted and controlled with landmines and drones by the Russian occupation forces. Zarina Zabrisky spoke with civilians who have managed to escape the hell that is living in the occupied territories. @zarinazabrisky.bsky.social
