#1 Severodonetsk is another city in ruin

Lysichansk is only a week or two from being ruined

30k Russians dead

20k Ukrainians dead

and I don't see an end game

#2 Ukrainian and Western intelligence report leaked to Britain's Independent newspaper says Ukrainian fighters are vastly outnumbered, completely outgunned, suffering huge casualties and are now deserting en masse.

This is the end, my friend...

#3 By request...

Russians is red
And usually kooky.
We loves all youse Jews...
Except Izzy and Mooky

And twelve million others.
The rest are our brothers
In plunder and venery,
Especially Henry!

#7 Tell it to Avril Haines, Pruitt

Eh? Are you perhaps in the wrong thread, Mr. Budd? Our Mr. Pruitt doesn’t write poetry — we leave that, mostly, to Zenobia Floger, who has a charming way with a trilingual rhyme.

#8 How bout some poetasting with neon? Titanium? This gas and that metal come from ... Russia. Oops.

Neon: Russia has limited exports of noble gases such as neon, a key ingredient for making semiconductor chips, until the end of 2022 to strengthen its market position.

Oops.

Titanium: the main hurdle for the M777 Howitzer is hiw to apply titanium alloys to the construction of the new weapon, in place of traditional steel, as titanium's impressive strength is also equaled by an impressive price tag,

Also, guess who dominates world titanium production.

Fook.

No wonder Ukraine isn't getting more than a pocketful.
