I'm not that informed about the context of the message here - but if it's about Gorby, then I guess, if you squint really hard, with a ton of asterixes and caveats - obviously, not only that, and that's presuming one was desireable....but I need to read the full message and context here. :D

By the looks of it, I'll be doing the full Car4Ukraine vehicle convoy trip from London to Lviv in early november, together with Evita maybe you got any media contacts, especially UK who'd like coverage? Ideas? @washingtonpost.com @telegraph.co.uk ?

I, for one, find space weapons hilarious and entertaining. USSR did a similar thing, they had built a space laser pistol to give to cosmonauts and strike sattelites with. Now we have rods from god or something. Well, my country has no nukes, so it changes nothing personally.

Next long form will be a deep exploration of the concept of Vranyo - analysis, history, most egregious examples and their consequences. Everything there is to know about the proud tradition of the systemic lie. This allows me to put some news in....and also to add in a LOT of culture and history.

I've heard you, and I didn't expect you liked longer stuff THAT much.... and, I figure my Acast ads don't pay me much anyways, and from November, it doesn't really matter how many eps per month I make...so yeah, we'll be moving over to this format for the most part.

​''We definitely aren't planning a mass mobilization, but let's wait until after the September elections to see who is right." - Vasily Nebenzya, Russian UN Envoy. ​Translation from Kremlin Vranyo: "Buy your tickets to Georgia right now, because the borders close the second the polling stations do.

This makes me paraphrase Enzo Ferarri and adress the people making our Latvian Influencer Awards: 'Go away, influencer. Peddle your goods and don't think about having real impact' My influence is measured in the resistance of kinetic impact, not likes and shares.

On the evening of August 19, a massive power outage struck central and south-western Moscow. Trams stopped, metro stations on the Orange line went dark, and malls were evacuated. Simultaneously, the internet crashed nationwide. And my doggo turned 1 year old. Life's good.

Kremlin channels claim the Moscow Balzi Rossi blast was a "gas cylinder" explosion in the kitchen. Meanwhile, locals in chat groups are already pointing out that the Stalinist skyscraper has no central gas lines. The area is cordoned off, and the Moscow Night Cycling Festival was canceled.
