Orion's Treasures over Snowy Mountains apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap26012... Rising over a frozen valley in the Tatra Mountains, the familiar stars and nebulas of Orion dominate this wide-field nightscape. The featured deep photo was taken in southern Poland's highest mountain range last month.

Holy shit.

The post of an absolute madman.

Canada's PM, Mark Carney, held a great speech about the new world disorder. Would have fitted perfectly in the spring of 2014. Now it's rather late but that he is still one of the first gives witness to the level of leadership we have had over the last decade. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Important work here from the NYT. Ross wasn’t run over. He dropped his cell phone, which he had shifted to his left hand to draw his weapon. And then he shot and killed a person with the gun in his right hand. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/15/v...

This image is making the rounds on the Internet, but I am repeating it anyway since EVERYONE NEEDS TO SEE IT. (I don't know who originally made it, but hats off to them!) This BBC article includes a link to the video of Renee Good's last words: www.bbc.com/news/article...

He was just making a joke about using military force to invade a sovereign ally. Cmon people. It was funny. Lol.

Happy new year, serfs. I have good news & bad news. 2026 will be worse than 2025, but it will be better than 2027.

Grim statistics in two simple infographics. In 2025, Ukrainians endured countless air raid alerts. The Kharkiv region alone faced more than 2,000. Russia launched 100,000 drones against us, 60,000 glide bombs, and 2,400 missiles.

Russia's political leaders keep claiming they have the #1 economy in Europe, but their own statisticians at Rosstat show that Russia's civilian economy is catastrophically collapsing.

Who'd of guessed???

The Russian government is preparing for a possible banking crisis, reports The Washington Post. A source in the Cabinet of Ministers links the threat to an increase in loan defaults, a slowdown in the economy, and the intensification of Western sanctions. 1/4

They’re scrambling. Written for a party of one.

Sanctions are not damaging Russian economy. We made "conscious decision" for it to get smaller. I remain a master strategist

‼️ Russia: “Roskomnadzor Seizes Domains Including Moscowtimes.ru Without Court Order” Now we know why the Russian language website isn’t working. www.themoscowtimes.com/2025/12/17/r...

Mass murderer Putin today called Ukraine's European allies PIGS. And he described the coming year, 2026, as a year of war. But tell me again about how much he wants peace.

‼️ Russia: “"All risks have materialized." The Academy of Sciences predicted a worsening economic situation in 2026.” BEHOLD! ✨ IT WILL GET WORSE ✨ www.moscowtimes.ru/2025/12/16/a...

OTD in 2021 Russian MFA denied any preparations against Ukraine or aggressive intentions. She was half right. We weren’t prepared.

Still in a state of shock trying to process the tragic loss of one of the most gifted men in the entertainment industry & his wife when the Embarrassment-in-Chief disgraces common human decency with this repulsive, deranged statement. #NoWords 🤮

1/8 It's hard to find anything good in the November economic data for China, just as it is hard to find anything new to say. All the important indicators continue to weaken, as they have throughout the year, in some cases even decelerating further. english.news.cn/20251215/a59...

The Epstein Files STILL have not been released. If he wasn’t in them. He’d have released them.

To all it applies

OTD in 2021 your Prez said claims that Russia would invade Ukraine are a "provocation". Which is why you can believe we will stop what we said we would not even start.

Like when China sent forces to the Arafura Sea off Northern Australia, and they started harassing Australian Coast Guard planes with powerful lasers for no reason. www.defence.gov.au/news-events/...

How you know russian propaganda only works on absolute imbeciles? NATO is guilty for not respecting an alleged verbal promise, denied by Gorbachev himself, MADE TO USSR, while russia is not guilty for breaking every agreement & treaty THAT THEY SIGNED. Logic: 0 Idiocracy: ♾️
