🇩🇰 Axios: Denmark’s intelligence service says Russia is suffering heavy losses for only marginal territorial gains in Ukraine. DDIS also says Russia’s economy is nearing a major crisis due to defense spending and sanctions. 1+ million Russian military casualties have been reported since war began.

It’s a mark of the corruption of our whole way of thinking about the world that trying to meet a planetary emergency is routinely described as “ideological”, while continuing to accelerate it is presented as “pragmatic” and “economic”.

Russians continue to attack Ukraine every day, targeting both civilian and energy facilities. This is what the Trypilska Thermal Power Plant looks like after today's Russian attack.

The RBA of Australia is totally out of touch or complicit in bolstering corporate profits. For ordinary Australians the cost of living pressures continue with price hikes at supermarkets along with Trump fueled hits to our economy. Meanwhile real wage growth falls further and further behind.

We have about another couple of punnet to come of our blueberry bushes this year, then I can prune them back while we still have some cool days. We have had a great season. About 12 punnets plus these. These are destined for a blueberry cheesecake.
