Ukraine is quietly becoming a drone superpower. According to Bloomberg, Ukrainian manufacturers produce around 4 million drones annually, from long‑range strike systems to inexpensive FPV models, a total that likely exceeds the combined production of all NATO countries.

Putin will then move on to Europe.

With a newly acquired pool of 39 million ex-Ukranian citizens to conscript from, many who will have extensive fighting experience, it is a nightmare scenario.

NATO troops have almost zero fighting experience in comparison

That's what I also think. He pretends he has unlimited time and resources but the recent nuclear weapons rattling hints he might have less and less options how to continue and tries to spread fear with the hope that Ukraine supporters will eventually back out. One is 100% clear: they have no money.

Russia’s plan to conquer Ukraine unfolds in three stages, according to Foreign Affairs. First: battlefield dominance. Second: occupy or devastate enough land to cripple Ukraine’s economy unless it complies with Moscow. Third: turn Ukraine into a satellite like Belarus. 2026 will be decisive.

🛜❌ In the Ulyanovsk region, mobile internet was disconnected until the end of "SVO".

Also in Russia, they began to fine subscribers to “undesirable” channels. These are anti-war resources. The courts accused them of “participation in the activities of an undesirable organization.”

It is fitting -- and necessary -- to relieve the old guard of their post.

We must ask whether we still deserve to carry what they built.
If not, then let us make it so.

This is one of the worst things about living in Canada, tbh.

Car ownership is awful.

-Cost
-Traffic
-Finding parking
-Maintenance
-Polluting

But because of how we designed our cities post-WW2, and how we chronically underfund transit and active transportation, most of us need cars.

I hate car ownership. I need a car, I have a car, but I hate owning a car.

The minister intervened to begin the process, now management has now submitted a restructuring plan *in the middle of collective bargaining* that it refuses to share with Canadians.
