Modern warfare is an episode of Black Mirror.

Damn. One drone homing in, another one recording.

A Putin rival and critic has died in prison.

The most shocking thing about this is that he didn't fall out of a window.

Well shit. I just learned a new word.

Such a fun word. Though, not much reason to use until Russia brought it back.

Almost as fun as exasanguinated.

I watch a LOT of horror movies. That one I've heard before. Although, I think I remember it from a CSI episode or something?

Yeah, that's logical. Uh huh.

Agree to disagree on you comparing yourself to Navalny, Don.

While I do believe the U.S. is rapidly declining thanks to a lot of really stupid and self-serving people voting and/or running things, this tweet is as stupid as Biden's "If you don't vote for me, you ain't black" comment.

And frankly, you two and your parties are the #1 reason why America is in reverse.

Putin gifts Kim Jong Un a car.

I didn't know they were dating.

Russian forces seem to have filmed proof they committed a war crime.

They do that 18 or 19 more times and the UN may write a letter.

What the heck is hitting Russian AWACs planes 200k deep inside Russian airspace? These are huge, extremely expensive planes filled with irreplaceable specialist officers. This is the second one downed. It's unclear (despite the caption) if this is UKR on purpose or RU accidently doing it.

Ukraine still losing.

On a lighter note, when a Putin film is inevitably made, doesn't Daniel Craig have to play him?

If Putin's so bad how does he keep winning all these elections!?

Russian created "Friendship Games" starts weeks after the Summer Olympics.

Put together by a country who has been banned from most international sporting events for cheating and who faces bans as a country for the Ukraine war. Important note: Their athletes can still participate in the Olympics, just not under the Russian flag.

Russian diplomat Maria Zabolotskaya used a debate on an Olympic truce for Paris to invite the world to the Friendship Games, citing her country's support for "honest and fair competitions."

I mean, do you even believe that?

I'm sure the $50M they're giving out in prizes will keep things on the up and up.

Peace and tolerance came to Russia.

Putin still blames Ukraine though.

Hackers take over Russia prison site.

It took officials a bit to notice, but not the prisoners who saw everything in the commissary reduced to a penny.

I like hacktivism like this, but really wish hacktivists would expose the Epstein clients and The Diddler's too.

Russian hackers associated with their government hack into U.S. infrastructure and cause damage.

This still isn't an act of war?
