Examples of racism/euro-centrism during the Russia-Ukraine conflict
Add to the above list if you can, thank you.
Resources For Understanding The War Beyond The Bulletins
Defense Politics Asia's youtube channel and their map, who is an independent youtuber with a mostly neutral viewpoint.
Moon of Alabama, which tends to have good analysis (though also a couple bad takes here and there)
Understanding War and the Saker: neo-conservative sources but their reporting of the war (so far) seems to line up with reality better than most liberal sources.
Alexander Mercouris, who does daily videos on the conflict and, unlike most western analysts, has some degree of understanding on how war works. He is a reactionary, however.
On the ground: Patrick Lancaster, an independent journalist reporting in the Ukrainian warzones.
Unedited videos of Russian/Ukrainian press conferences and speeches.
Yesterday's discussion post.
So I heard that mountain dew was origionally made to be a mixer with whiskey, and so I bought one to try it out with some Pendleton's Rye.
It's surprisingly good. like a whiskey orange but a bit different. I guess it's a good poor fella's mixer.
:07: thank you for important news for the next bulletin

I’m trying that this weekend. Another weirdly good whiskey drink: laphroaig (or some other very peaty scotch) and Pepsi max.
oh Scottish armpit juice, it's been a few years since I had some. I'll have to try that with the max since it sounds weird enough to be good
Almost every soda mixes well with whiskey. Seltzers, coke, mountain dew, sprite, ginger ale, etc.
I haven't tried quinine tonic yet, that might be the one miss for whiskey
