Russia has invaded Ukraine

The apparent scene when he gave order to get nuclear deterrent force ready. He loves his large tables doesn’t he. He’s isolated on the World Stage, as much as he is here.

Looks like a huge coffin . . . sure hope that's not an ominous observation

Apparently due to his ongoing paranoia over covid. Nobody is allowed anywhere near him. Some are saying even Stalin at his most loony was never as isolated as Putin has made himself over the past couple of years.

Anyone else getting a twitchy bottom? My anxiety levels are rising with this latest bit of news. Am I being over dramatic or is it really scary?

Nope. The world needs a reset one way or another, we're just a blip, a second in time if that, I don't think we actually deserve to be here. Nothing you can do about any of it anyway.

Even if he were to order use of nukes - and I’m not convinced even Putin is that far gone - I think it’s unlikely the order would ever leave his office. There are plenty of people around him who know he’s going nuts and they’re not about to sacrifice their lives for it. That might be the point at which they decide to end his though.

Nope. Nothing we can do about it so just get on with life. If it happens it happens, the great unwashed have no control over this

Yep. If it all breaks loose put your head between your legs and kiss your ass goodbye.

A couple of days ago, Putin threatened Sweden and Finland.

Sweden’s (normally neutral) response today - it will deliver 5000 anti-armour AT4 rocket launchers, 5000 body armour kits, 5000 helmets, and 135,000 field rations to the Ukrainian armed forces.

And Denmark is now donating 2700 anti-tank weapons to Ukraine.

I think Putin has severely misjudged responses to his actions and threats.

I have to say those Bayraktari weapons made by Turkey, the Ukrainians are using against the Russian tank columns are badass.

There’s a lot of rich Russian and oligarchs that are seeing their fortunes dwindle. Expect an attempt on Putin’s life if this isn’t resolved soon.
