So, pro-Ukrainian channels were reporting that Russia tried to pull off Avdeevka and used a pipe that not so long ago carried gas to Western Europe through Ukraine to attack Ukrainians behind enemy lines in Kursk. They said that the Ukr forces have intercepted the Russian squad and 80% of the Russian force was destroyed. And then I went to sleep, only to wake up in the middle of night and see pro-Russian channels celebrating a breakthrough. They posted these photos…

So, Trump wants to set up a US BTC reserve, and the initial capital will come from the BTC held by the Department of Treasury, which was seized by the US government from criminals. The US government will procure further BTC. Furthermore, a Digital Asset Stockpile will be set up where other confiscated cryptocurrencies will be held. As much as I understand it, the US government does not intend to procure any other cryptocurrency than BTC. I assume the other cryptocurrencies will be converted to BTC. This is what I have done with other crypto in my portfolio, the only wise thing to do if you are a HODLer.
In Czechia, the governor of the central bank also wanted a BTC reserve. His suggestion was being investigated the last time I checked. This was criticized by the European Central Bank though. Luckily, Czechia doesn’t have the Euro. IMF is also hostile to BTC as was recently seen in strings attached to a loan offered to El Salvador. Bad, evil people reveal themselves through opposition to BTC and Donald Trump.
I must say that I have written countless posts discussing why Ukrainian is a peasant patois, and Ukraine is literally a twentieth century invention supported by anti-Russian assholes. And the counter argument to this is actually equally potent. All nations are invented, the Czech nation is a nineteenth century invention that really crystallized after 1918, the creation of Czechoslovakia. The German nation is a nineteenth century invention too, so are the Italians and the French.
And my biggest gripe with Ukraine ever was that the policies of the government completely contradicted what the country needs. I was always critical of the unitary nature of Ukraine, or trying to push the Ukrainian language and Ukrainian nationalism on a largely Russian speaking population. There are democratic means of maintaining a state like Ukraine. Federalism, and minority rights. You know what I mean but Ukraine never implemented any of this. They behaved like 1930s radical nationalists and blamed outside meddling when things didn’t work out. 😆
Another of my contention is that project Ukraine has always been an attempt to use the Khokhols to break Russia. Basically, outside powers like Austria-Hungary and Germany have sponsored this Ukrainian nationalist shit to get at their enemies. Inter-war Poland and Czechoslovakia were other victims of this policy. The agency was then taken over by the Anglos and used against USSR and modern Russia. And as long as Ukraine will pose as anti-Russia as Putin calls it, they will have a constant problem with Russia. Matter of fact, their radical nationalism will put them in conflict with all of their neighbors.
Ultimately, if you are a supporter of Ukraine, why do you support this Ukrainian self-destruction in the service of others?
Kaja Kallas is a daughter of a prominent communist and now she goes around telling us how they all suffered under USSR…
The Czech president, Petr Pavel was a member of the Communist Party until December 1989. 😆 He is today a darling of neoliberals and presides over munition initiative for Ukraine. Even more sinister, I have heard von der Leyen is from a family of Nazis. These EU, globohomo flunkies are all from Commie and Nazi families. Meanwhile, people like Trump are reviled, yet they have no family history of Nazi affiliation or Commie membership.
On X or Telegram you cannot follow RT or Sputnik as they are under sanctions. Luckily I still follow stuff I used to follow back in the days on YouTube on Telegram today, X is also kinda free…
That’s why you have weasels like Thierry Breton threatening Elon Musk and X. Christine Laggard hates BTC. I am glad I live in Czechia, which does not have the Euro, and where the governor of the central bank can contemplate BTC reserve. And this is why I oppose the EU. EU is against freedom and redundant. We don’t need the EU to have a customs union and the Schengen Agreement providing for free movement of people isn’t exactly the EUs work.
The Czech TV published the opinions of top politicians here in Czechia.
Petr Fiala (the Prime Minister): The decision of President, Trump only demonstrates the urgency to change the current European policy… We cannot allow the success of aggressive Russian politics, which threatens all of us.
Miloš Vystrčil (leader of the Senate): Fast and concrete help for Ukraine from Czechia and other willing and responsible countries is now the most important thing we can do.
Jana Černochová (the Minister of Defense): I hope President, Trump and President, Zelensky can soon find common ground again and American support will be resumed. Meanwhile, the European countries must step up their support.
Markéta Pekarová Adamová (speaker of the Parliament): Why would the criminal, Putin stop killing if the US are helping him to disarm a defending country? This is a cynical and dangerous capitulation before evil.
Markéta Gregorová (an MEP): At home in Hungary, Orbán carefully guards every minority so that the latter cannot have influence over anything. May he have the same enthusiasm for effective decision making in Brussels. I am happy that before we step towards abolishing the veto, we are able to act as a “coalition of the willing”. Orbán should be isolated, Fico should be disciplined.
Markéta Gregorová on the left…
Markéta Gregorová is a man hating lesbo-feminist that led a campaign “do you wanna fuck?”to teach men about consent. 😆
Why does the EU need the approval of Hungary for military help? The EU doesn’t have an army anyway. Individual countries will be those delivering weapons to Ukraine.
For months, the pro-Ukrainian propaganda presented the Ukrainian occupation of a part of the Kursk region as a failure of the Russian military. Failure to prevent an invasion, failure to expel the invaders. They even invented a deadline issued by Putin according to which the Russian military was supposed to expel the Ukrainian forces by October (or was it November, I don’t remember now) and again the inept Russian military failed. But recent news are showing quite a different picture…
Again these North Koreans. It is clear Russia didn’t use its elite forces or withdraw troops fighting in Ukraine to deal with Kursk. If they managed to draw North Koreans to this theatre that would be based but the evidence for this isn’t trust worthy from my point of view.
I have been playing Skyrim and recording it after work…
More specifically I have been playing the Beyond Skyrim: Bruma mod. As the name suggests, the mod covers an area beyond the province of Skyrim, the county of Bruma in the province of Cyrodil south of Skyrim. You can watch the playlist of my play-through below. I managed ten episodes, and the series end with a nice view. 😆
Beyond Skyrim is an ambitious mod project that seeks to add to the existing game Skyrim, which takes place in the eponymous province of Skyrim, other areas of the continent, Tamriel. It will be like Skyrim times 4 if finished. So far they released only Bruma. They were promising to add a piece of High Rock in a mod called the Three Kingdoms, and a piece of Morrowind in a mod called the New North. But neither of these two saw the light of day. Hopefully, their release was abandoned in favor of larger areas to be published later.
Beyond Skyrim could extend the playability of Skyrim, a game published in 2011, for another decade or two. What is absolutely ridiculous is that in those 14 years, Skyrim has hardly been surpassed in its category. Skyrim is a game of many flaws, and the fact that nobody has produced a game that would rival it, and take away its player base does not speak well of the games industry. Recently published Avowed is inferior to Skyrim, and Witcher 3 and Kingdom Come: Deliverance, while good games are not comparable, albeit similar. They say Kingdom Come: Deliverence II actually sucks ass so that’s that.
Hopefully Beyond Skyrim doesn’t get abandoned but this year promises to deliver the Skyblivion, which is a remake of the Oblivion game from 2006 in Skyrim engine. This is not just a remaster but a hand crafted remake. They have reworked locations and game assets, which promises a new experience and visuals on the par or perhaps surpassing Skyrim itself. It is also a community project, and this promises attention to detail not seen in many big studio titles. Oblivion will also be remastered in the Unreal Engine. The latter is official and should be available on consoles. I personally think they should redo Skyrim in the Unreal Engine. That would be something… Also in the works is Skywind, which seeks to recreate Morrowind in the Skyrim engine. I intend to play all of them…
