The sooner the Russian economy crashes, the sooner Russia will have to pull out of Ukraine.
So burn, baby, burn.
Despite the manipulation by the Russian state the Ruble is losing fast in value, causing Russians to storm the banks.
There is no chance for the Russian economy to survive if the war drags on and sanctions stay.

@fonecokid Part of this factually incorrect. Ukraine has been a democracy for 30 years. It's in their constitution.
russia invaded because they thought Zelensky was weak and wouldn't have the support of the West. There were essentially no consequences in 2014 when russia invaded Donbas and illegally annexed Crimea, so they thought there wouldn't be any now.
When I created this abstract painting, I wanted to capture the essence of tropical flowers rather than something representational. I feel like the playful and dynamic arrangement of the blooms and unusual, vibrant colors helped me get where I wanted to go. Let me know what you think!

Some of your impressions are mistaken, and I think you're using a lot of passive voice ("the iron curtain was created") in order to avoid assigning responsibility where it belongs. The USSR created the Iron Curtain, to keep people in when they wanted to leave.
Is the West perfect? Of course not, neither is NATO. But Russia invaded a peaceful country. Russia started a war. Russia is murdering, raping and torturing civilians. Russia is at fault.

I'm not in government, but I'm not allowed to let a vendor pay for my lunch because it could appear to be unethical.
A Democratic president got impeached for a lie about a clandestine blowjob. A Republican president got a pass on trying to overthrow the government.
I think you're entitled to something stronger than opinion, at this point.
I have no words for whatโs happening in our red states. Itโs truly frightening.
So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
