I have heard some good news, everybody! I heard Ukraine gave the invaders a drubbing in Bakhmut lately!
Pour out a glass for our brave friends that fought and sacrificed for it. They do us a great service. They have stood up against an enemy that might have otherwise threatened our own people. Imperialism has to be checked before it starts, or it never ends.

'Apparently cows do not want suspected criminals loitering in their pasture...'
