Ukraine is America's 52nd State, remember that when you talk to Ukrainians you might as well be talking to a Texan.

I know that feel. I know churkafren from old KC, he is mobilized and expected to die soon.Your government is doing a shit job at protecting it's soldiers, AFU SOF are operating with near total impunity now and are stringing up his comrades' bodies as examples of what will be made of him. Most are simply crippled though, AFU's goal right now is to fill up all the medical wards so when the offensive actually starts it collapses utterly and injured mobniks die.

 

Anyway, I remember when we played GT4 and he showed me how to play pirated videogames (be nice I was younger then) and I helped him learn English. All of this is now in the toilet because he is basically confirmed to die as he is not in the evacuation group, and he is charged with controlling hostages that are very displeased with their slavery. He is having trouble dealing with his place in the universe, and when he brought this up to his comrades they called him a faggot and bullied him and reminded him that his station in life is to carry their bags because of his class (idk this seems like a cultural thing between muslims). He also hates his family for making him be the one to report so his cousins can live.

 

It's extremely strange because he is legitimately smarter than myself and will now be tortured to death and die violently. He's been taking to this poorly and now understands why people worship jesus and the entire appeal of christianity.

lol, lmao

 

It's not funny because he is my friend and watching my friend suffer is distressing. He was one of my first friends on steam and I made a VK page just to chat with him. He's the one who showed me telegram and how to read russian culture. This person has been very hurt over the past six months, and his life will conclude in a very painful, very bad way. His family will disown him as soon as they get paid, if they are paid at all, and he won't be remembered by anyone but myself. And I know him as a Russian, whereas he would rather not be remembered at all rather than be remembered as Russian. It's all very sad and Russian I suppose.

 

Today I went and got myself some denny's and then I hit up a casino where I casually lost $250 because I am a bad player. He would have laughed at that, and rightfully so because it's very funny. He's currently between a trench and barracks with a coal stove for heating, everything is covered in soot and mud, and he has permanent hearing damage. I'm smoking a cigarette thinking about how he won't see 2024 and how his family will completely, utterly, totally forget him by 2025. This gives me a lot of pause for thought.

Sad

Cringe, Bernd brotherhood transcends borders

Where is the churkafren from exactly? Dagestan? Chechnya?

wagmi

That very well might be further away.

But I understand what you write.

 

This is interesting take too.

 

I'm worried about Bernds all over. They don't cut out for this shit for sure.

 

Like clockwork.

 

Supposedly some rural area but ended up with his uncles in a large city after his father died. He's had an otherwise normal life despite the wars, since he is a big coward. He was going to apply to a college outside kadystan when 2/22 came and his family designated him as their offering to the great monkey. He went with it thinking Ukraine would just fold and he could just live in occupied Russian Ukraine as an apostate, unfortunately this is not the case and his life is being some bully's porter. Even with the front collapsing, muslims keep their pecking order which he's at the bottom of. This is distressing him because they have better friends and will probably get out. Also the regular orcs hate him because of his religion, since many of them had parents who died in chechnya too. He can only assume AFU SOF is going to treat him like this but rip his balls off first, since he's in a special area that has a lot of slaves that prevent AFU from just exploding him.

 

Overall mood is very low and most of his posts are talking about flowers now because talking about his broken finger, hurt people, and the lack of administrative support would make him quiet. Probably 80% of my messages to him are just pictures of flowers I see around my neighborhood, and he's trying to plan which flowers are going to be on his grave (this is just a funny joke, he won't get a grave and even if he does it will be a mass unmarked burial). The other 10% are PS5 memes because I promised to give him my PS5 if he lives. He reminded me that all russians are scum and it'd just be stolen at customs anyway.

 

That and the moon. I don't know what's it with muslims and the moon but he's noticing it more and talking about it more. Thinks he'll be dead by the next full moon. Assumes the offensive will start at tonight's full moon, which I doubt. I was kinda an asshole though because I reminded him that Biden is sending Americans to the moon again and he won't witness it, but (and this is me trying to be nice) at least his soul will be on the moon to greet them. He *really* cried after this and that was our last phone call. This is a muslim thing right? I never actually talked with him about religion since he always wanted to get away from it. Conditions must be really bad for him to start behaving like this. He claimed he's trying to convert to catholicism because he's gotten to that stress point where people start being religious out of frustration, but he doesn't want to be religious in a russian or muslim way because russia is shit. Reminds me of our EU2 RP. Unfortunately he thinks I care about religion and thinks I can convert him, again I think it's a stress response. I've told him multiple times now that he needs to see a priest to do that, and his unit killed or arrested all the priests.

 

I vaguely remember meeting similar people when *I* was in Iraq, but lmfao my assignments were made by merit and capability not by who our parents were. America also has better trucks than Russia, and way better power tools. Half my time was telling him how to properly rebuild glad hands to pull air from a truck to use for tools, and most of his tools are sub-harbor freight tier. Here in burgerland it's been li-ions for at least a decade now.

This is terrible and I'm truly sorry for the guy but

 

Kinda hard to feel sorry for those who weren't literally dragged to the frontline by force, let alone in a war of agression. If you are half-serious about not picking up a gun and NOT finding yourself in such position, you'd find well over a thousand options to do something else with your life: break your arm, blow town, stay in grandma's village, make a run for Kazakhstan. A shitton of options tested out by the Vietnam draft dodgers (except for Kazakhstan maybe) and many others.

 

Your presence in Iraq was fully voluntary too. So should we feel sorry for Wehrmacht soldiers? I don't think so. The "they were forced to" morality only works until you find out that in 1917-18 people in Europe (not just Russia, but Germany too although not on such grand scale) simply refused to take part in the war and just kinda turned around and left en masse, and that was it. They just did that and so can anyone else at any point in history.

 

Sure, the guy's cousins come into play but giving a fuck about them in the first place is a huge mistake on its own.

 

Still a sad tale of fatal docility.

so basically he was fine with going to war as an aggressor, but now that things went to shit (for him personally) he regrets it?

 

please keep posting updates if you can

 

are you the Bernd who hid from the mobilization?

 

 

There is a lot of maneuvering happening now as Rus. admin thinks there's going to be a big push tonight, but it's hard to say because they deliberately keep most units in the dark about the bigger picture. He's moving a lot and, even if he somehow survives the next week, his death is certainly guaranteed with the counteroffensive. It's more of a question of "where" rather than "when".

 

He is a self-admitted coward and didn't actually think the SMO would be a war. He's thinking about his own family's experiences in Chechnya, where Russia eventually won, and where his family survived by cooperating with the authorities. There was no way a Russian advance into Ukraine could plausibly be worse because it's the same country right?. He also watched a lot of local media and didn't realize how bad the situation actually was until he got into training and realized that many important questions were unanswerable or had the same doublespeak. Also, he was the designated boy pussy and constantly humiliated because of it, as he mistakenly thought his fellow muslims would treat him like a human. This is a common trend over the past six months for him, unfortunately.

 

I'll admit that I was part of the problem because I didn't think Ukraine would actually win either and that he'd get a job like I did driving trucks. In hindsight, I probably should have persuaded him to be (western) gay so he could get into Sweden. He didn't have the balls to do this, not that it matters anymore because they made him eastern gay and blackmail him with it. This is also why his hatred for Russia is not as great as his hatred of Islam.

This entire story is peak postmodernist Russia.

 

It could still be worse. At least when he is dead, he won't be a slave to Kadyov anymore or participate in the next Chechen War. The worst violence is yet to come, unimaginable horrors and betrayal he won't experience because he will be blissfully dead. And with him his comrades will march into the grave, forever peaceful burning in hui, and their bodies might give rise to grass or trees once the radiation goes away. Then he can become a flower spirit or shade something like in Oblivion and help adventurers grind xp. This is basically what he's already doing anyway.

 

Just imagine all the Russians who died blissfully in the First World War. They didn't live long enough to experience Communism or the Second World War. And their lives would have ended under the same miserable, pathetic and lowly circumstances anyway.

Any army in any time in history works like this:

As we move down in the ranks the soldiers know less and less, and at the level of the common footman/private/etc. they only have to know the immediate task they have to execute.

That's it. A lowly soldier will never be privy to anything more then his own next step. Literal step.

This is why so important to keep in an army order, and demand blind obedience, and immediate action for commands issued. A private can't know anything more than what he sees and can't know the reasons behind decisions in the upper echelons of command, and it is not his place to second guess the commands he gets.

 

In competent militaries, soldiers are at least told what the larger battle plan is because it's not super secret and any units that operate on an element of surprise are simply given different instructions. In IRL battlefield conditions even the best battle plan will be disregarded after the first contact with the enemy, so immense secrecy around the higher level picture is harmful as units have no idea how to frame what they're doing into a useful context. This is especially important if officers are expected to die forcing NCOs or boots to make important, consequential decisions.

 

A competent solider needs to know where he's going and why for anything he does to have meaning. If secrecy was the primary factor in military success then individual units would not have two-way radios and radio access would be heavily restricted. This is not the case in the west. We expect units to communicate regularly as their situations change, and the battle plan changes in response to it. Officers have enough leeway to make their own decisions and thus deviate from the plan. The plan is more of a guiding framework than hard orders, especially for land-based units that have high individual autonomy compared to naval frigates or aircraft.

 

I mean, you can't seriously expect President Biden to order ten thousand Americans to march east from Riga to Moscow without any idea of what the plan is besides marching and shooting. The original plan would inevitably fall apart as soon as they'd hit prepared defenses, just as we did in Korea. Without a larger plan to work within and modify individual units are cut off, isolated, flanked and killed. Extreme secrecy breeds bad ideas anyway, because it discourages units from recognizing dangerous behavior like shooting civilians or drug abuse. It also prevents, by design, successful support of local police forces by the larger sponsor. We don't hear about the DPR or LPR because of this, whereas we know about Ukraine's NPU as they work with our FBI laboratories (via the CIA) to identify dead bodies. It is notable that Russia does not bother to do this. Because the point of this war is to have a strong local police force that can support Russia and integrate into Russia .. not telling those people about the bigger plan to integrate into Russia prevents mission success because the mission's goals are conflicting with actual directives given out to those tasked with carrying it out.

i feel happy that deceased ukrainian bernds won't have to see the nation they fought tooth and nail for given away to ficki fickis by their kike leader

People do mistakes sometimes. When it's due to being misinformed it gets hard to understand their inner decisions. Did he know who and why he's going to fight? Was it a war of agression to him, or did he think it's a defense operation (as people who joined Wehrmacht did)?

Of course their mistakes is their own fault, but it doesn't mean you can't feel sorry for such people.

You can, but should you?

The Australian Bernd above proves that ignorance is a proactive choice.

These are the feelings we talk about, you can't say what others should or should not feel. We're all human and we all make a stupid choices sometimes, that's all I said.

 

Also, there's big difference between being ignorant and believing propaganda.

stupid question: if his death is certain why don't he just offs himself now to avoid further pain and horror?

 

I'm curios, what matters more in your opinion, intentions or the final result?

Matters to whom? To my own feelings, to the victims of the war, to the International Court of Justice?..

 

 

Emphasis on "coward" and remember this is the mighty russian army we're talking about: he is not normally issued a rifle, he moves stuff for the "people" who run the actual security for the construction. These "people" require this because it's part of their religion, and the military command accommodates it. He's part of a select group that cooks their food too, so it's not like his life is total gruel as his rations are tolerable and not rotten. This has kept him alive so far, but it guarantees he'll be tortured to death once AFU raid the site. They already know what happens inside, AFU buzzes them almost daily to keep track of slave injuries/deaths. When he's rotated onto the group sacrificial event (patrol) most of his time is spent within AFU scopes. Again AFU shoots to maim, the goal is total destruction of the medical support network. Actual instant deaths are rare or simply moved around by the bag. His other job is handling muslim cadavers as regular muslims consider it unclean but also refuse to allow a non-muslim to touch their bodies. The closest he's come to death was whenever he was tasked with retrieving a comrade's dead body as it's usually within a larger ongoing battle against AFU regulars and not SOF. He's not so afraid of AFU infantry because they'd just leave him to die whereas SOF crucify the dying.

 

This is subjected against the utter horror of the local villages, most of which have been bombed and ruined and are filled with dead, injured and decaying people being instructed to worship the monkey. What's happening to Ukraine is how most of his family was killed two decades ago. He's accepted that it is only appropriate that he is killed in the same way. It's important to remember the human element of this on the civilian population, because that's the goal anyway. The slaves judge him poorly because of what his bullies do, and he knows what they do is bad because they trained on him first. The real scare isn't the physical pain or torment: it's that this happened to his own clan, which was mostly destroyed because of it, and his death will be the final piece in his family's chapter.

 

I gently remind him that he *could* have put on that SF PRIDE! t-shirt and rainbow belt I got him and suck some dicks to get out of conscription and russia, but he was too proud of himself at the time. He's admitted that this was a mistake. I'm not so great either - I enabled this by getting him iphones in exchange for star charts my ex was into. His family's legacy will be some magical woo that an aging hag uses to determine when she should masturbate. I also got a lot of cool pre-SMO military gear (incl important documentation supporting it's veracity; mostly AK grips) that I sold on ebay.

What I mean is, physical pain can be controlled and ignored. It's the greater horror of a family's multi-generational history coming to an end. Imagine having 1,500+ years of recorded history all gradually go into the toilet because of Tsary, Soviet then Monkey. What was once beautiful, or at least pretty from a distance, becomes corrupted and destroyed internally. Oral traditions, tradecrafts, and spirits all slowly die as they are crushed and ground into the thin gruel used to lubricate ball bearings or fuel trucks. There is only one steep path into hell now, as individualism is stripped for a completely unrecognizable, alien demand for total subjugation to other men. Perhaps this was always true of society, it's how Islam rose, but it's also how it'll be destroyed.

 

The above is a basic retelling of what he thought about when he passed by the Zigger Novel Playplace and was briefed on how he would die if another Chernobyl occurred. He'd be turned into human soup, burning then melting back into the primordial form he came from. He'd join the stars permanently inside the lead lined coffins earlier sacrifices were given. Nobody would remember his name, it wouldn't matter, and he probably wouldn't have much more than a skeleton - even then it'd probably be crushed into dust to save space or melted with chemicals to reduce radioactivity. This is still his official work assignment because he overlooks a concrete plant which is where his own tomb would be refined. The slaves know this and it's why their hatred for him is extreme. It's also why he will be marked for interrogation.

I am asking you, I don't think you're a victim or a judge. I guess the real question is, even if those Russian soldiers - especially the low ranking ones - were lied to, manipulated and fed propaganda their whole lives, personal responsibility must start somewhere?

 

I don't know, I think being tortured is way scarier than my whole bloodline dying out. Do you recon his family's legacy is on his mind when he's being shot at?

 

Anyway, how come you know so much about military?

 

I was in the national guard, so I have experience driving trucks in Iraq. I didn't actually kill anyone though, which speaks less to me and more my commanders who never put me in a situation where needed to pick up a gun. This is because everyone was good at what they did and we were given good equipment and support from other units who didn't have to wait on higher approvals to help us. This is the biggest difference between western and eastern military strategy.

 

Anyway, the other part is a complicated question for him that I haven't gotten a straight answer on. He's only talked about his family stuff recently so I think it's due to the stress and not sleeping. He's completely given up on expecting to live through this, and once someone's over that hump there's not much else to do except think about what their parents would think. As both his parents are dead from the previous SMO and generally not well regarded by the place he comes from, he's trying to frame his life in a way that contextualizes his misery and gives it purpose. Because right now there's obviously zero purpose in the mission he's given, and this is a very common thought process when morale is low. This is also a core tenet of all religion. It's almost scientific, actually.

Spot on.👌

Well put. What's funny about the infantile parody of humanism I call the "they were forced to!" morality is that it pretty much suggests that the overwhelming majority consists of unaccountable subhuman cattle. Literally hitler tier thinking in disguise.

I dunno Bernd. The events unfolding since 2014 (or the rise of Yeltsin to be fair) made me come to a different understanding. I believe that falling for propaganda is volunary ignorance - an act of free will that shouldn't be ignored and forgiven if performed by physically and mentally able adults, especially in the age of internet. To think of it, you can justify an average German who was in complete informational isolation and didn't know anything better than Völkischer Beobachter, as anything else was barely obtainable at all except for picking up foreign broadcasts on the radio. You can also understand why a babushka in a Siberian village who's only got a TV as her sole friend would fall for it, but we're talking about young, physically and mentally normal males in the age of Internet.

Sure, they are responsible for their own crimes, but it doesn't make their intentions unimportant (for me) and it doesn't make them any less human.

It is voluntary but it's not ignornce. I can recommend a documentary book, 'A Nation Under Arms' by Nicholas Stargardt. It's about the German society during WWII. TL;DR it's not like propaganda was the only source, people knew (at least partially) about the war crimes and lilelyhood of losing, but propaganda hit the right places, made them victims so they could embrace total war.

That's the one I thought about when I made assumption about foreign broadcasts! Not sure if it's from that book, but I remember an example of a middle aged guy tried by Gestapo for listening to the British (or maybe French) radio and let go because he was a honored WWI vet.

Where can I report russoids to FSB when they call SMO a war?

 

It's not illegal to call it a war. It's illegal to call it an invasion. Russia is always at war with itself, therefore special military operations in Russian cities and villages is normal like with street combat, PIV rape, exploding buildings, or men going door to door collecting boys.

This reminds me of the black mood I was put into by a russian posting to the Haskell (programming language) message boards. Basically saying they could not post anymore because russia was planning to remove access.

 

It's something sad and personal. It's a strange feeling because you think you're above such things, of course the can always communicate, but it is not true.

churkafren is still alive (barely) and I forwarded this video to him, and he understands the content behind it. He's clearly suffering from sleep withdrawal and spends most of his day in a near-catonic state, which is typical for extreme sleep deprivation. He's still sane enough to do his assigned tasks although he has difficulty distinguishing what day of the week it is, since it is increasingly inconsequential to him now. He is still assigned to a single location and now they can't even run electricity to most facilities, so many jobs aren't being done or require an engineering vehicle to pull power from. Many more people are dying and now the bullies are starting to feel the effects of long-term stress and anxiety, which manifests itself as slurred speech and getting basic things like truck assignments confused.

 

Anyway, all he wants to do is sleep forever. He's come to the stage where he'll just sleep whenever he's not moving, and hopes AFU will just snipe him so he won't wake up. Patrols are now exclusively prisoners who are too stupid to realize they are walking into predetermined ambushes. It's ritualized slaughter. He still eats but the last time he ate he slept 13 hours, and received a beating for engaging in such a luxury when there were weapons and toilets to be cleaned. Fortunately, the bullies are increasingly unable to remember where they assign him so it's easier to just walk around and smoke when he wants now.

wait, what? they're letting out prisoners for patrols? what keeps them from running away then?

Top friend move

Indredastings.

I thought he meant Ukrainian POWs, not Russian convicts, that makes more sense

 

He is still moving but movement now hurts always and he's just going through the motions like a meat puppet. When you don't sleep for 30, 40 hours reality becomes ambiguous. Most of his "friends" are feeling the strain too, as they've stopped calling him a faggot as it's too much energy to be angry. Also, with the increased sacrifices there's more bodies to pick up and now it is very hard to even get other tribesmen' bodies out. Everything is taking a very macabre, dark turn as artillery goes by day and commandos at night. Normal building functions were cut off days ago - no water service in many places, and toilets don't work. Latrines have been dug and most of the mechanical team's effort is to get the plumbing back working. Lots of talk about occupying civillian houses where there is plumbing because everyone is tired of walking down three flights of stairs just to take a shit. And no piss bottles because they need them for fuel (plastic is very combustable and makes a great heat source).

 

 

It's the mobilized Russians. The slaves are kept in their pens, for whatever that even matters anymore. The fences are broken in many places, and guards "protecting" them on outside tasks are totally exhausted and just sleep it off. Many can just run if they wanted. But there's nothing to run to except war, going back home means becoming a target. For as shit as the bullies and guards are, they have boundaries, won't chase people down and usually prefer to rape their own over random civilians. Despite the violence and constant work, the mood is depressive and lean is the biggest enemy. The combat brigades are different and comprised of loosely assembled retards strung out on stimulants, and are known to be crazy enough to really hurt and torture people to death like in the castration video.

 

Bankcards still work so there's still an economy by people often children who buy food from stores in exchange for parent visitation minutes. Unfortunately it's still >on the Ukraine so everyone is always drunk, messed up and not in a good way. This is also why the combat fighters aren't particularly liked, they don't drive well and throw things at pedestrians for being dumb stupid cockholes getting in the way of their big mighty APC. Worryingly, many of them don't know how to back up properly or how to lock diffs anymore. These are the people who will be operating the evacuation group.

You might be wondering why he doesn't just load up on painkillers. This is because opiates give bad hallucinations, and the drugs are cheap shit made in china, india, or some other shithole country that was willing to sell it to russia. Most of the painkillers issued to troops are sold for money, quality food (like bacon bits or jerky) or alcohol. You can be buzzed on alcohol and still stand up, the world becomes a merciful blur and you don't have to interact with it. Heroin can be nice but most of the time it's like visiting hell as it simulates the feeling of being crushed, while your body is asleep but your mind is awake enough to perceive the fighting and noise happening around it. This was his last heroin trip and he hasn't touched it since.

 

The lack of hearing protection has completely destroyed everyones' hearing so now there is only two volumes: american tourist and screaming. The doctor has diagnosed everyone with extreme hearing loss, which will never come back, and in my friend's case it means he will never be able to properly hear islamic poetry (funny joke right? his bullies thought so when he tried to have a cultural moment with them so they made fun of his penis) or his family ever again. The doctor has become the most valuable person on site, which was expected, and payment is measured by the keg. His office has the building's remaining computer AND internet connection. The break room has a single family guy DVD and some softcore porn. The porn isn't particularly good but at least it's not war. Someone brought some grapes, which have been rotting where they left them because everyone on break is too busy drinking. The vibe is somewhere between late afternoon hospice and Casket.

Churkafren's mental facilities are declining, now mostly speaks in a combination of grunts, choking noises, russian slurs, and english verbs with a strong arab accent. He's taken up his comrades' drinking games even though he says he doesn't drink, which is a problem because lean is very toxic. Apparently he fell or something exploded near him (or both) so half his face is blue and he has a small limp. He found a very pleasant, non-flooded part of the basement that is quiet and is taking nap. I'm unsure if he'll wake up, because he could choke to death on his own puke. When I mentioned this to him, he said it was N'Hoaga Lots Victory [gibberish] Peace, Ali Protects. He's given up on learning latin and I just email him arab translations of catholic prayers, and he cursed me out badly when he realized that he'll be talking to god in the same voice arabs do. He then wished he didn't exist again and expressed discontent (mostly guttural throat noises and spitting) towards other people in his unit, who were too drunk/unwilling to get up off the floor to comment about it. It makes me wonder .. why doesn't Russia send chairs to their military bases? And if slavs hate sitting on the floor so much, why do they lay down on floors when they can push desks or tables together?

 

AFU now does regular "checks" on their outer perimeter villages, they're pretty certain slaves are escaping this way. Nobody cares because anytime walks over to that area without protection/armored vehicles, somebody gets their belly exploded and has a very long painful death. After informing the management about this, Command has assured them that the situation is fully under control, it's probably friendly fire, and don't worry about the weird metal taste in the water. They're afraid to risk an APC because they use it for power, and if AFU were to try to enter the main buildings the APCs are the only way to escape. After hearing this everyone switched to lean and they bought better quality pool tablets and test strips off the local jew. All drinking water is boiled now, which means there's no coffee and their entire operation is now dependent on a large coffee machine. Coffee machines have now been issued to all crews, patrols, and any building with electricity. The jew is probably brokering their activity to AFU.

The most dubious thing so far is talking to someone on discord in English in front of his uhh comrades

I think if it's made up it's at least compelling creative writing.

I remember caliball talking about the churka in question quite a while ago... I r8 highly dedicated and internally consistent creative writing /10.

Chill up, it was me using a proxy

no, there was an ukrainian posting from sumy, he also posted photos and such

It was me the whole time anon kek, i have a folder full of pics from there all of them downloaded from google... maybe i took the joke too far.

Still made me think, as the other sites and communities I frequented probably had real Ukrainians who weren't proxyargentinians...

 

or not....

He was here before hispachan.

 

We usually talk on telegram, email or some other services that I'm not going to mention. He doesn't do it near his comrades, for the same reasons I don't do it at work. There is literally nobody he can discuss this with, there's no therapy in russia, there's no USO in russia, there's no suicide helpline in russia, there's no medical intervention code for suicidal thoughts in russia. The few doctors he has access to are busy patching people up so they can die slower. There's just work, the work has been crushing him for the past two and a half months as it physically destroys his body. I'm witnessing this and have nobody to talk about it with outside of KC. I can't talk about this with my coworkers. I can't bring it up on facebook. I can't tell my family. I can't tell a priest. I only (barely) trust a few people in the business (ebay camo sales) who are mostly interested in buying his uniform and grips. There is zero space to have this discussion outside KC. All of our old steam contacts went dark anyway too, I'm probably his only non-Russian friend left. I don't have it in me to ignore this.

 

We met way before all this in the late 00s on Steam by playing videogames. This was before I graduated highschool and got into the military myself, where I did nothing of note or interest. He thought his experience would be very similar, since he had friends that got him into a noncombat position and some technical school. He didn't understand the implications of this until he was taken to training and deployed. I didn't understand it either because even after February I assumed Russia's armed forces would at least be competently administrated, even if poorly run - analogous to our own experiences in Vietnam, which I had to study extensively and whose consequences shape the US military's current command/response structure. Russia didn't learn anything from the Chechen wars, which is incredibly disturbing and scary moreso than anything happening to my friend. Because this is what's going to happen to Chechnya again, it's going to happen to Russians themselves again, and there won't be any way to stop the meat grinder when it really starts moving.

 

Think to Gorbachev's comments just before all this pleading with Putin to NOT do this. He was right about the costs Russians can accept on their lives, everything but war. That's why there was no second Soviet Civil War. Now, Russia's government seems dedicated to creating such an apocalyptic event just to force everyone down a few more levels into total subjugation. Witnessing this is disturbing, especially when I actually enjoyed about Russian Islamic culture that will be destroyed by this scenario. Watching things die is not fun and there is no other outlet to express this on either side of the conflict.

Will commiefornia ever update??

I had to go to noncechan to read latest update....

H-how did it feel

 

t. was fat in 2015 so started wearing skinny jeans just now

Uh, good ending I guess

I was wearing black skinny jeans in 2010, AMA (actually women's jeans I had bought from Zara in size W30 because there were no men's skinny jeans).

I remember how on several occasions people would stop their car and shout "faggot" at me or aggressively talk at me at train stations for wearing those type of pants, very interesting social dynamics

why do men so often wear baggy pants?

I was so skinny back then that when I wore skinny jeans I looked unhealthy. In the end I bought baggy teen jeans (being a 20yo) as the only thing that made me look a human being.

Angel 2:

36,6... Why you are asking?

 

Angel 1: Ouch! I designed those thingies thinking of 30,6 degrees

 

Angel 2: You WHAT??? Deadline in 2 hours! Ugh, fine. Here's a dirty hack: make them exterior for aircooling.

 

(turns out, those are testicles)

 

Angel 2: Truly dirty... Fine, send it as the final design and keep up a poker face, perhaps they won't notice the issue
