Watched this some time ago. BadComedian is a film reviewer. The video is split into two parts, first being a review of a film “Marie, Save Moscow”, and the second is about the narrative that is being promoted in RU mass media - Ivan Ilyin and Ivan Shmelyov are being shown in good light, “faith allows people to win”, and so on. The film is about, and I am serious here, how “cold blooded communist woman” becomes “faithful and kind” through ortodox christianity. English is hard, I will expand the comment later.

There are more movies like this. Movies that promote perversion of Great Patriotic War, USSR and nazism. BadComedian also reviewed these two films (this one has RU subtitles, you can enable translation to EN) which promote orthodox faith as an important factor for winning. The second one even has… SS officer shaking hand with Soviet soldier and in a different momet had said “I will not kill you brother”. Do I need to say how vile this all is? Oh, there is also a movie that is straight up pornographic. And, just to add a cherry on top, these films are actively promoted on state media, and sometimes are sponsored by “Cinema Fund of Russia”, which is spending tax money.

These movies are not about the Great Patriotic War.

edit: another one, with EN subtitles proper. I recommend watching it whole, but the moment at 17:25 should be enough to clarify what I mean by “perversion”.

In Russia, being trans without gender marker in the documents changed and watching news about Argentina is terrifying. While the Ukraine does not currently prohibit getting F64.0, it may do that very quickly, using the “they are doing this to dodge the draft” rhetoric.

I am afraid that some of my friends (or, in the worst case, everyone) won’t be able to get out.

It has not happened yet, but Javier Milei had won the primary election, so he may become the president in October election.

I’ll go and send more hugs to my friends over there. I don’t have any more words.

I know that this is a meme, but injectable hormones are not good for long term storage since they are made from oil, such as MCT oil, and oil will eventually go bad. Vials can be stored for several years, but not for decades.

Can I talk about DIY here?

Since the regular points have already been covered by other people, I’ll add one thing that I like:

Two batteries. The external one is drained first, and it can be replaced while the laptop is running, because there’s an internal battery. I have 24Wh internal, a 16Wh external (it’s old, originallly it was 24Wh) and 72Wh external, in a 12 inch laptop (achievable because 72Wh battery sticks out and acts like a stand), giving me more battery life than anything else without an external power bank.

And I got mine for dirt cheap.

Gel is harder to make than injections tho. I am a bit afraid of sharing information, but if the raw powder (enanthate) is kept in good condition, and as long as oil can be procured whenever needed, it should be possible to only buy the powder once in a lifetime.
