@Ilovethebomb @LaFinlandia that or just plain walk into Moscow and St. Petersburg and tell Vladimir that they're running the place now. From what I can tell about the Russian economy, he's not doing a great job and they might go for that. Who knows. I don't pretend to understand Russian politics.

@LaFinlandia Oh, my. Vlad must be kicking much Russian a$$ this Friday morning. He really should start with his own. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

@LaFinlandia is this in Russia or Ukraine? There are two places with the same name.

@Reptorian @Burstar Hmm, you'd think it would dawn on somebody (hint) that "maybe' it is a bad idea to try to go take somebody else's country away from them "because" somewhere in the history books it "used to" belong to Russia was a bad idea?๐Ÿค” Asking for several million Ukrainians.

@tal @don True, but there is also the argument (somewhat theoretical) that, if these people had stayed where they were, they might have changed the course of history. Maybe. Or not. We might also have completely lost them and their contributions to the world. Who's to say? And, no, leaving Russia is not easy right now. She's risking not just her life, but that of family left behind. It's brutal to live in Russia now.

@YeetPics @LaFinlandia Disagree totally. He's the #1 cause, yes, but he is not the only one. He could not do this without help, and he's had plenty. He's enlisted people from Bulgaria, Turkey, and other countries who specialize in atrocities and torture. He's allowed violent criminals out of prisons to go to war. He has help. They need to pay for their crimes, too. #WarCrimes #PutinWarCriminal #RussiaUkraineWar #RussianInvasion

@LaFinlandia Can't just throw a piece of adhesive on that one and call it good.

@LaFinlandia As much as I dislike the sight of those black smoke plumes, SLAVI UKRAINE! Maybe next time, hit that railroad and highway, too?

@LaFinlandia You have got to be kidding me. If he's an abuser, well, nothing lost, but seriously?? That's really cold.
