Woke up and checked what's up on Telegram. I feel we can say the gas explosion theory is dead and buried

So much for a day off. A blast just hit a closed military VIP banquet at Moscow’s Balzi Rossi (3 dead, 20+ wounded). State media claims a "gas leak." Minor detail: the Stalinist skyscraper runs on electricity. Zero gas lines. Classic Kremlin vranyo in action. 1/thread
2.48 Dark Autumn for Russia 2 theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-48... Dark Autumn 2: The Ponyatiya-filtered audits of April predictions I made, against ISW delusions as Russia's logistics spine burns, Wildberries collapses, and the cartel state enters terminal failure.
FIFA are a bunch of parasites and Gianni Infantino is an utter bastard. I hope that Latvian Football Federation votes for football and not for greed. youtu.be/3FTeLXCNGM0?...

2.47 I am a Bobbit Worm and I do "BLOOP" youtu.be/_ChUkgwosqQ Ukrainian drone Bobbit worms snap Russian logistics in half. Crimean blackouts, digital Gosplan price-fixing, Z-sphere panic, and our official endorsement of Count Binface for Clacton. (Has video this time)
I'll have to work through my dark autumn predictions. Personally, I feel that @thestudyofwar.bsky.social lost to me in the first round squarely. My april stuff has come much closer to reality then what they and othets were saying back then.
Russian economy is BEYOND screwed, irrespective on anything at this point.
One of my favorite footy YouTubers @theoldzealand.bsky.social just drew my attention to Italy's new coach. And woah, that's right up my alley. youtu.be/0LKjK7ttMok?...

2.46 National Peculiarities of Russian Freemasons theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-46... From SVO Masonic lodges in Rostov to pawnshops charging 77% interest on wedding rings, I dissect the apocalyptic delusions, burning logistics, and final collapse of the Syndicate State. (YT version incoming)
2.45 The Wildberries Extinction Event theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-45... As Ukraine’s drone campaign liquidates Russia’s Amazon and frontlines run out of gas, the Kremlin’s vranyo engine collapses into AI-generated lies, friendly fire, and pure Z-patriot panic.
It always feels amazing to see that you've really helped some very real, awesome people. Just got this thank you message for the last campaign. If you want to be awesome too, here's the current campaign! And it earns you a special Eastern Border podcast badge too! car4ukraine.com/campaigns/su...
So I finally did it. I started writing a book. theeasternborder.substack.com/p/angry-patr... @beijingpalmer.bsky.social Check this one out, please. You probably will like it. It's angry.
Angry Patriots: Prologue & Chapter 1.
So, I've started writing a Gonzo journalism book. Prologue's free.

2.43 …but it sometimes rhymes theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-43... Imperial hubris mirrors 1904 as drone strikes dismantle Russia's refineries, forcing a 25k-ton daily fuel deficit, hyper-inflation debt traps, digital rationing, and total elite structural rot.
IOC is now disliked by absolutely everyone. Z vatniks are not happy either. Personally, I find this hilarious.
So, last night the ACTUAL Omsk strike happened. 10 FP-1 drones. More than a day in the air.
2.42 The Pantyhose Filter theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-42... The imperial well runs dry. We track the 69-hour fuel queues, Cossack vigilantes hunting Crimeans, military MPs getting fragged, and the terminal August 2026 convergence. Donate to Car4Ukraine: car4ukraine.com/campaigns/su...

Tonight at 2AM my time, Japan plays Sweden. Let's go #SamuraiBlue!!! Also, I'll release an episode before that.
2.40 Fraud Watch theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-40... Fuel panic hits Moscow, small aviation collapses, and Z-patriots lose their minds on live video. An unfiltered autopsy of an empire running on empty. Oh, and I'm quoting Moscow mayor Sobyanin in my thumbnail. (After his acc was hacked.)
With Iran closing Hormuz again...well, pick between a fiasco and just bombing the shit out of their water supply. From a mercenary standpoint, I'd pick the latter. That is, if you want to reach an agreement. Or, adapt to Hormuz being permanently closed. Not nice, but only two options Trump has.
In France some bastards attacked a factory that produces drones for Ukraine with Molotovs. A Belarus citizen has been arrested.
2.39 Vranyo for Dummies The Russian imperial simulation hits physical reality at terminal velocity. An unfiltered Gonzo audit of empty air defense grids, $95B deficits, and paid crowds. theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-39... Donate to Ukraine: car4ukraine.com/campaigns/su...
I just found out that I'm 283km from Riga. That's the distance from NYC to DC basically. Or London to Manchester. (A LOT by Latvian standards.) And only 22km from Russia.
