This has been resting in my drafts for a while. Sergei Tikhanovsky, the husband of Svetlana Tikhanovskaya was let out of jail, and made some flaming interviews. Speculations have started that a fake Sergei was released by Lukashenko. He has become a bit of a meme and people are laughing at his antics.
I have been lurking around Semyon Skrepetsky’s online properties and collecting the stuff that he posts.
After elections, the Czech support for Ukrainian military can be stopped.
“We want Ukraine to survive as an independent sovereign state even if the price will be the temporary occupation of its territory as it is today. We will not recognize these territories as Russian.”
This particular quote irked Ukrainian internet warriors. Ukraine is getting cooked at Pokrovsk and Konstantinovka. The Ukrainian defense line is breaking. I thought Russia would take these places last year but Russian strategy is taking things slow, and in the meantime dealing maximum damage to the Ukrainian military. Demilitarization the hard way.
I am not sure Russia wants the kid of sovereignty for Ukraine that Petr Pavel envisages. Ukraine has been promoting Naziism, Russophobia and persecuted the Orthodox Church. I am not sure how they wanna deal with that.
There’s surviving, and then there’s thriving in a literal sewer. A colony of guppies—the same tiny tropical fish people keep in desktop aquariums—has managed to do both for more than 40 years in the waste-choked canals of a Kyiv treatment plant.
Guppies are a very hardy fish, I heard they live in rivers of Southern Europe where the winters are mild and the water doesn’t freeze.
Unfortunately, the guppies’ reign is under threat. In recent years, their numbers have declined due to an invasive predator known as the rotan-head (Perccottus glenii), a fish that wandered in and started eating them. Even in the sewers, nothing gold can stay.
This second fish is also an invasive species from Eastern Asia. Species tend to be introduced to places by natural means, some species tend to migrate around the World quite naturally but often this introduction is the work of humans.
I am generally against keeping pets. Most pets are wild animals in captivity. Unless you are able to imitate their natural habitat, don’t even buy it. Keeping a solitary hamster in a cage with a running wheel is modern age dystopia. Reminds me of people in the cities with sedentary job that get some movement in an overpriced gym.
I am even against keeping dogs in cities. Dog is a proper domesticated animal that has lived with humans for millennia but it needs space to run and marks its territory with urine. If you have a house with a garden and an adjacent field where the animal can run around and be happy, don’t do it. I have a dog but I live in a rural area.
So a week is remaining to Trump’s secondary tariffs on countries that buy Russian energy resources. This is supposed to put pressure on Russia to stop its advance in Ukraine. But Russian supplies of oil and gas over land are ensuring China’s energy security.
Indians might cave in to Trump’s threats. The question is if this will force Russia to negotiate a peace treaty to the detriment of their goals or they could continue on and bear the expense of the war?
White boy summer Czechia…
This is what an alpha male looks like. Babiš looks like a beta male but he is one of the richest people in Czechia. In his youth he played volleyball but he dodged military service over health problems. He had a an ugly wife, with whom he had a son that is now estranged and living in Switzerland. Then he had a mid wife with whom he had two kids, and last year they divorced.
International researchers analyzed the behaviors of almost 3,000 heterosexual users of a Czech dating app, with their findings published earlier this week in the PLOS One journal.
Czechia of all places. Here in my region, most women are not even on dating apps. What you will find on dating apps are sluts, passive aggressive fatties, and post-wall single mothers. Absolute trash! And if you are a self respecting man, you shouldn’t be on these websites at all. Either you find a girl in real life or you remain single. Either options are better than a dating apps.
Here in Czechia, if you are a loser, you are poor and fat, you can court some infernal dysgenic fatty. It is a form of sneaky fuckerism. And if gods forbid you have kids together, they will be the same. Why even bother with spreading your defective genes? 🧬 Besides the point, these fatties have plenty of health problems, painful periods and shit, and your ass will be at the receiving end of their anguish. 😆👌
By refusing to play by the European Union’s restrictive climate rules, Poland has begun to build one of Europe’s most energy-secure economies. While much of the bloc marches in lockstep toward a self-inflicted economic wound called “net zero,”
At the heart of Poland’s defiance is a steadfast refusal to abandon coal, the bedrock of its energy system. In 2024, coal, oil, and natural gas accounted for more than 85% of total primary energy supply, the highest share in the EU. Coal alone generated 55% of the nation’s electricity in 2024, powering homes, factories, and businesses.
Maciej Bando, Poland’s deputy climate minister, has been unequivocal on this point: “I have no doubt that coal units will be needed in the system until they are naturally replaced by nuclear power plants.”
The idea that you can power a modern industrial economy with intermittent and unreliable sources of energy like wind and solar is a dangerous fantasy. Poland must be careful to not follow the examples of Germany and the United Kingdom, where domination of power grids by wind and solar has resulted in unstable power supplies, surging imports, and unaffordable power prices.
The green deal fantasies of the EU would have been quite disastrous for Poland. I am glad they have the balls to defy the EU, at least somebody in this region has some common sense. I wonder if they will be able to build few nuclear reactors. But they built autobahn everywhere, so I am optimistic.
