OTD in 1991 Ukrainians, including those in Crimea, voted overwhelmingly for independence from USSR.

I don't like that vote result, so I am changing the voters and having new votes.

OTD in 2021 Russian Embassy on Londonograd reported that US & UK were manipulating false claims of a Russian invasion & occupation of Ukraine to spread panic.

Which is why you can believe us now we say we want peace.

It's true that I self-publish, and maybe that means my stuff is not as polished as the big publishing houses claim their stuff is.

OTOH: nothing I put out has had AI touch it with a bargepole.

My work is my own. Available on Amazon, ibooks, B&N, & KOBO.

It's somewhat amusing that you can pass yourself off as a Russia expert commenting on this "peace deal" as messy but at least "a way to end the war" without realising Kremlin sees it as just a tactic to continue it later.

It will end nothing.

If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."

There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

In what is likely to be a massive blow to traditional Russian culture…
Alcohol prices in Russia are set to rise sharply from January 1, 2026, as the government approves higher excise taxes across the board. Vodka will go up 11.4%, beer by 10%, and wine by as much as 30%. Some shelves may empty by December as producers rush output. Analysts expect a 10% drop in sales.

Summer of 1889: Inspired by the match girl's strike in the previous year, London's tailors and dockworkers join together in a general strike. The tailors demanded better pay, a 12 hour work day, a limit on overtime, and a 1 hour break for dinner and tea. They eventually won.
