💬 #Zakharova: The original #US plan was to step up economic pressure on Russia to make it reconsider its legitimate security interests. That didn’t work. Now the US is going to use #WMD; in fact, this is a game that crosses the red line. 👉 is.gd/QThNRp

Someone should do a smog impact study when a Chick-fil-A operates near neighborhoods. Jfc! - incredible traffic, more accidents, blocked bicycle lanes, belching cars, trucks roll'n coal - a chicken-flavoured nuisance.

I enjoy incredulous-looking Russian propaganda, but they should have had a GrandMaster Flash soundtrack in the background. youtu.be/u0u_qxFEysI

UPDATE: The latest new thing going viral on Russian propaganda channels is a fake video supposedly showing Ukrainian President Zelensky with a pile of white powder (assumingely cocaine) next to him. The original footage is from March 6th and no Zelensky is not going

And now, ladies & gentlemen, an important message from your Russian infrastructure-destroying sponsors:
Quote Tweet
Replying to @igorsushko
Still, alerting the Russians to fire safety issues is an important public service. “Remember only YOU can prevent cruiser fires, chemical plant fires, research institute fires…”damn, not quite as punchy as the American original but still time for a Smokey the Russian Bear.

US foreign policy is getting more insane by the day, but the public gradually loses interest and transitions to angrily debating masks and gender identity at Disney World. Sounds about right

Overheard at the VA today as I was sitting there in the blood-draw chair: "I don't have PTSD, I *give* PTSD!" <snicker> - I am so with that statement.

Guide: How to make sure you are heard by your Congressperson

In a past life, I briefly served as an unregistered (under the hours threshold) lobbyist and taught grassroots supporters how to effectively advocate to Members of Congress. Since the process can be mystifying for many, here's my insight (this one is for you #ufotwitter) /1

Can’t Understand: Ppl. going ape-sh*t over Fresh Prince ‘slapping’ Chris Rock. You’re more likely to meet and make positive impact on new Ukrainian war refugees than two TeeVee performers. Honestly - who r u more concerned with? Is the shallow end of the pool so gargantuan?

Does the Russian nuclear-option ORBAT include neutron weapons, e.g. "It kills people, not buildings"? I hope they don't open the trunk.

I would love something like this, one of the few forms of Russian PSTN hardware encryption devices that would run admirably well off my Lada's ice-fishing port/cigarette lighter plug.

Yesterday, a secret Russian cipher machine appeared on Twitter. Allegedly confiscated by Ukraine from Russian troops around Kiev. Whether this is correct remains to be seen, but we have created a provisional page for it: cryptomuseum.com/crypto/ru/m427/ any further info is welcome.

A week ago, ~40,000 SATCOM terminals were knocked out in Ukraine and other European countries. I just published a technical analysis of that incident, based on the information publicly available and my experience in that field. reversemode.com/2022/03/satcom

A team of Russian soldiers wanted to use the elevator to reach the roof of an office building. The Ukrainian administration of the building trapped them inside by cutting off the electricity. The Ukrainians also used an industrial camera to take this commemorative photo.

If any sort of chemical weapons are deployed in Ukraine, I sure AF hope someone comes up with a Molly MDMA weapon so both sides drop their guns, hug each other and pass around orange slices... The War would stop.

Telegram is the most popular messenger in urban Ukraine. After a decade of misleading marketing and press, most ppl there believe it’s an “encrypted app” The reality is the opposite-TG is by default a cloud database w/ a plaintext copy of every msg everyone has ever sent/recvd.
