Fuck it, I’m going to intermittently live tweet Intervision. Putin filmed a very serious address specifically for the event! I bet the contestants feel special!

Shockingly, it didn’t fit the attempt at camp happening on the stage.

I will admit some of their pastries are decent though.

This would be a huge blow to independent media in the Caucasus.
For those who were asking me, how we were affected by aid cuts, here's answer, we compiled a story about it, there will be more stories coming about the impact on OC, so keep an eye.

I am sure we will survive this, we've survived worse times!

Only four years until civil war in Germany(!), says RIA Novosti. “Some experts” think European leaders want a European army to “suppress the future German revolution.” Scary stuff.

Three years after the full-scale invasion began, and nearly two and a half since this piece was published, it’s still something I come back to and read occasionally as a reminder of the toll of this war.

I’m not sure making your opponent’s brain larger and associating him with a cult classic is a winning strategy.

After reading much of RIA Novosti’s opinion page today, I combed through the catalogue to have a real look at their AI-generated cover images, and there’s quite a variety within their awful AI style. Racism, cute pipelines, terrorist birds… something for everyone. Oh, and clowns, a lot of clowns.
