Today, the Main Intelligence Directorate of Russia asked how much more resources the country would have for a potential war against Ukraine. Unfortunately, the GUR and Lithuanian military intelligence both believe that Russia would only have enough resources for two years of such a war. The military also believes that they could fight until 2023 or 2024 at the latest, assuming it is a conventional war. If sanctions are tightened, this reserve would be even smaller. European countries are already considering tightening sanctions due to Russia's transfer of Iskanders to Belarus, which could potentially include tactical nuclear missiles. In response to the question of whether the occupiers have a shortage of missiles, it appears that surface launchers have been brought to their basing points, but they are not equipped. Submarine missile carriers are still in place, which is why the missile threat is still considered high. Russians have a large stockpile of bombs which they are converting to guided bombs to imitate missiles. Ukraine has experience in shooting down such bombs, and it is important to shoot down the aircraft themselves in order to counter the occupiers' methods. It is also important to listen to alarms when there are submarine missile carriers at sea, as they can launch missiles all over Ukraine.

Kudos to Barnes & Noble for prominently displaying, in its #Florida stores, books which #RonDerSantis wants to ban in public schools.

Hey there, to anyone who needs a hug goodnight right now, or just a general hug - here's one 🫂💙

Mainstream media needs to realize that protecting Benjamin Netanyahu will never make for the past and how they ignored the holocaust while it was going on.
What is going on in #Israel is a desperate attempt to subvert the judicial system in order to avoid going to prison.
Seems familiar? Cause it is the same issue in #USA with #traitortrump .

What would you do with your life if everyone had enough and would always have enough?

I would make music & art & scientific discoveries to cure chronic diseases.

Until then, I’m working on everyone having enough.

So they riot, burn down the Court house, or worse. Where does that take him?

The real border crisis in America is the one that is crumbling between church and state.

I'm spamming this on all my socials because I am proud AF of this masterpiece of #knitting

Smudge is currently sulking because he got all dressed up and didn't get a shout-out in my report.
This post is my apology. #CatsOfMastodon

Hey Mac! I was here first.

This house finch appears to complain about the arrival of a goldfinch.

This isn't the best photo in the world, but I've said before that interesting is often better than good.

So this USB-C cable supports power delivery, but not that USB-C cable? And I can hook up my monitor to this USB-C port, but not that USB-C port? Do I need an active or passive adapter to get HDMI? My head hurts.

Ok, mostly joking because I know the alternative plethora of ports is worse, but I thought of this meme so now you have to see it

The beautiful thing and at the same time the most complicated thing is someone who makes you always be yourself. No doubt. Without being ashamed of anything. Without fear.

Pacifica Sunset

Pacifica is where highway 1 starts down the California Coast along the Pacific Ocean.
After tasting some specialty beers and walking on the beach down near Santa Cruz. We decided to take the longer way home up coast.
As we neared Pacifica it was clear that I wouldn't make it to San Francisco for sunset. So we found a place to park so that we could enjoy the sunset in Pacifica.
