It's obvious at this point that Putin cannot win this war. His army has been destroyed/collapsed and he's attempting to replace it with conscripts and stored equipment that's 50 years old. His air force is apparently utterly ineffectual, and he has lost the support of the populace. He's a megalomaniac, so he presses on. I seriously hope there is enough actual intelligence among the upper-echelon military to keep him from using nuclear weapons.

Russian windows, in addition to being able to toss people in the street, are apparently missile magnets.

A Russian missile demolished an apartment block in a Ukrainian region that Moscow says it has annexed, killing at least three people...

I get absurdity is very much deliberate in this war but it’s still insane how the Russian narrative shifted from “we are fighting the nazis” to “we are defending ourselves from Anglo-Saxon transgender satanists hellbent on making us drug addicts”

Re the sabotage of the gas lines: Putin's speech revealed that the practical consequences are that
  • Russia is now “entitled” to respond in kind, 
  • Russia is not responsible for stopping energy supplies to Europe, & 
  • Gazprom may not have to pay for missed deliveries.
It was the USA? Yeah, right. 

The positive side of this is he's obviously planning ahead, which means he's not planning to nuke us all to oblivion.

yep,  a lot of people are very nervous about the use of nuclear arms. Acting insane is a good way to stoke those fears. Then again he might be insane. He's made a ton of bad mistakes this year, even from his own point of view.

Just read of this online.. 

the manifesto introduced to the Russian General Staff Academy in 1997, ...: “It is especially important to introduce geopolitical disorder into internal American activity, encouraging all kinds of separatism and ethnic, social and racial conflicts, actively supporting all dissident movements–extremist, racist, and sectarian groups, thus destabilising internal political processes in the U.S.
