"How much longer are they going to torture us? When will this all end?"

And

"All these sirens, some loudspeakers saying stay off the streets."

Y'all don't like it very much when minor impacts from your way come home, do you. Y'all would've been fine if you'd just left Ukraine alone.

Also, your stress contrasts so aptly with the blithe guy who put an extra tank into his back stay because

"I have to go to Mariupol [in occupied Ukraine] tomorrow."

"What's going on? I don't know"

Well that's some lack of reflection that is actually impressive.

I bet they can't say the truth about Putin invading Ukraine and how badly it's going or they'll get sent to prison for rehabilitation, or defenestrated

So they cry for social media because it's finally happening to them and they don't want to risk speaking out

"All the atrocities commited were ok in my book but now the whole situation is affecting ME. I declare this went too far!".

[-] cronenthal@discuss.tchncs.de 35 points 2 days ago

How can they post this to the open internet and at the same time be ignorant about what is going on?

[-] Vergissmeinnicht@lemmy.ca 30 points 2 days ago

Some probably know but are afraid to say it

Open internet? In Russia?

Boohoo you don't have gas. You are the same people that thought it's A-OK when hospitals were hit by cruise missiles that had not strayed from target, schools were hit, monuments, and when the pride and joy of the Russian Federation was to bomb heating plants in Ukraine in the middle of winter.

I'd say, you reap what you sow, but I don't wish upon anyone the destruction that Russia has wrought upon Ukraine. May you be in fuel queues until the day you die, though.

I think I was most impressed by the guy who jerry rigged an extra gas tank in the back seat of his fucking car.

[-] Vergissmeinnicht@lemmy.ca 20 points 2 days ago

I'll be impressed when his car hasn't caught fire after a month.

From the first vid:

"Strawberries are 1000 rubles a kilo"

So let's see 1000 rubles is about 13 dollars, and a kilogram is 2.2 pounds . So a little over six dollars a pound. That's about what strawberries are locally. Good to know that "the country is imploding" prices are about the same around the world.

The median income in Russia is 4 times less than the USA. So to earn that strawberry money would take 4 times longer.

Strawberries at a thousand rubles reminds me of this American psychologist who was embedded with the Allied force that captured Aachen as the first major city of Germany in late 1944.

When he interviewed the local Germans they reported that the past few years had been tough on them. Nobody had had any real coffee since forever, and no butter, either.

War really is hell, I guess.

Edit: corrected a minor inaccuracy, and for anyone interested, it was Saul K. Padover, who wrote this book about his experience: https://catalog.hathitrust.org/Record/000903013

Don't worry friends it's all part of the plan!

[-] Kissaki@feddit.org 8 points 2 days ago

[-] ladicius@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

I thought the younger guy was getting some weapon from the trunk.
