It's the only platform I still regularly engage with minus this, being lemmy, tildes, and watchpeopledie.tv/h/slavshit because I get a lot of interesting stuff to watch and people still come on there on their own to express themselves about stuff I care about. But yeah, the fact that YouTube weathered the onslaught of russian bots and kept all my UA supporting channels up earned my respect. Which it's a great way to keep up if you're not on Telegram, or are just depressed by the shit, I think it's a damn good platform. Best thing google has imo.

But to each their own. I'm not like the vast majority of people.

Edit: I've been suspicious of Mr. Beast for many years. The deadness behind the eyes clued me into him actually. No one that successful with that kinda look is squeaky clean. That's been the only thing besides the obvious this person is wealthy, probably not amazing, that's made me dislike his stuff. Also the clickbaity nature of his content.

A BK opened near my office a year or two ago. I've never had a burger I'd describe as depressing before then. But that Bacon King or whatever they called sure was.

Intercooler + wet towel got me about 30 minutes on Verruckt

I read an article that basically said we give up on trying to categorize you guys (97), you're just "transitionals". Not millennial or gen z. And honestly I get that. I only remember 9/11 because of my mother's reaction. I grew up in a weird phase for tech. And I don't feel like I belong to either group.

So I think they cracked the code!

Interesting. Thank you. Only knew we have them, no idea if they even worked at all. That figures.

People launch large mortars in my area of 75,000 residents on a regular basis. It can scare the shit out of you if you're not expecting it. Sometimes people get shot over here as well. I wonder how the gunshot listening stations differentiate those noises.

I agree with you but I also understand why this is happening. I would be hard pressed to say I would be made out for military service even though I have great respect for those in the military. Cowardice is one reason and a very relatable one at that. To say people aren't fleeing because of cowardice at all is naive. But to judge them for that is unfair. I think we all agree there.

That being said, people in your comment chain aren't taking into account the fact that the very fabric of the Ukrainian society is under threat of total eradication. Historically that brings out a higher calling in people to defend their own homes, their loved ones, and their neighbors.

At any rate, the fleeing of these men bodes quite poorly for the future of us all.

I'm tired of people acting like Ukraine isn't holding back the fascist tide of Russian imperialism to the benefit of us all. If they were to give up today it would spell the end of their civilization, and a start to many great problems for the rest of us. Our peace is paid for in Ukrainian blood right now. Russia is sabotaging several foreign powers with intention to finish this genocide and expand the war. America, Germany, Sweden and elsewhere have been hit. And people act like we're not going to have to put our own soldiers on the line at some point. And the less Ukrainians in the fight, the sooner that will be.

Give me the downvotes. I've studied Russian history.

Edit: I'd also like someone to give me an alternative to conscription in their case. I see no other option.

Only when they become a recap of the subject for 90% of it do I get annoyed, lol.

I've never even thought to look into JP lore. But this is my front page now

I blame my office job

It's hard to comprehend their mindset
