On train now, some cunt told me to take the wrong fucking one, but now on right one to Ukraine maybe 1 hour, then I lose internet. Still have Ukraine sim kaart but I assume no cash on it. I'm already seeing the injured ppl, it's only gonna get worse
Currently in kharkiv, lots of air alarms, funny thing is the only near explosions happened after the all clear alarm. 2 within 5 km. Currently the Russians are trying to come this way 100k troops but they are under equiped and van dat stuff from theUA side but I won't until the war finishes, another air alarms, what do you do. Holy shit that was a big explosion. They actually got one right. Yep another big explosion and judging by the reverb it nearly hit something. Russia trying to take kharkiv again and Ukraine going south, let's see where this ends
Bad zed takes over, actually this explosions are exillerating I want more
Yeah those were the 2 big explosions I heard.
The funny thing is noone even looked up, I know you can acclimate to something but fucken hell, can hear explosions now in the background
Still doing the fucking nets, for reasons.
Also tomorrow, for an extra long Sunday won't finish work till 7 or 8pm.
Hopefully soon I can start doing stuff on the front lines. Can't really talk about why ATM.
Now Vinnie site your sources.
Hell even if it's a friend of a friend who heard something. Be a man, or else the number of beers you owe me will now be up to a dozen.
Mate it seems as if the propaganda has gotten to you, be a free thinker, be strong.
WRT Ukraine.
I can say this without disclosing details, cause I'm not being specific
true corruption is still a problem in 2023, though it was much worse 10 years ago. Not as bad as Russia but still nearly as bad. In the last 10 years it's improved, they wanted to join the EU, so had to fix a lot, they had people's revolution to kick out a party that just wanted to turn it into an oligarchy of Russia. But the funny thing is, it's improved heaps since the invasion, I'm not disclosing anything as it's common knowledge here. Cause of the war as soon as someone in power asks for cash to falicitate something, the person will go on telegram and call them out with video.
Russia of course it's still ruled by the oligarchy. Fucking shame. Corrupt as fuck.
I think it's cause you and I know they just spout BS and I can show the flaws in their 'facts'. Mate you've been reading propaganda , no problem with that.
Was a lot of the stuff you read written by 'Americans' who suddenly weren't saying much when Wagner tried their coup?
The reason they got shut down temporary is cause they are in Russia and Putin's was scared for his regime and cut internet access to these Russians ahem I mean 'patriotic Americans' online.
Today I met at work an 75 yr old grandma, she spent 6 weeks in Russian jail, her crime, her son is an officer in Ukraine military. They tried to use her being in jail to force the son to help them. Fucked up.
Imagine that mate, they take your mum And won't let her go until you help them with info
I want to send you a pm, but no idea why it's not working. Mate you have fallen for propaganda, you might thing yes I'm too smart for this blah blah. But you have fallen for this insidious shit. Like I said before I will take abullet for you, I want to help you get out of this.
Um not sure how, facts, reality?
Often they have the reverse effect
Have I fallen for propaganda? Perhaps, but as a true arachist, and there are so few of us, the algorithms can't pick me up, so I would say not, as they target the mainstream "hello person in New York" a a city of 10plus million. Here's some interesting news about ......
Yes in this war there is a lot of shit written about, hell I was here yesterday morning when the 2 missiles struck, I sort of know where and what time. 8.07 8.10 this was not reported, fucken felt shock wave from the first.
Quiet today so far but it's only 6am.
Ha yesterday the first hit happened and then only later air siren, normally they are better. Not that anyone cares about air alarm now. It's like I was here 3plus weeks ago I just arrived sitting in a busy park, huge explosion from missile, maybe 2km away and none even looked up, not even children, like where is that from?
They have seen worse, much much worse.
And if you think I'm in New York I can imagine
Then you are so wrong so fucking wrong
Really wrong, really really wrong
This is war, it's fucken bad, Vince don't be brainwashed, a mate of mine here who I will see later today to say goodbye to, I'm fucken crying now. Really. Danil, His dad got killed 200km north of here in, near sumy woods last October, he still has not gotten over it, his dad was 46. Younger than me. All he has now are photos of his dad in fatigues smiling into the camera in the woods, he will live with this for decades. Hey at least now cause there's one death in near family he doesn't have to fight due to Ukraine law, but in Russia law doesn't matter, death in family then you should fight more. Fucked up.
The whole thing is fucked, this war is fucked.
I will ask again cite your sources,
Now I ask like 5 times over some weeks, and you still refuse to answer, what does that say Vince?
Answer = You know your sources are just completely BS
Now in this case you have 2 options, double down and refuse you've fallen for the lies aka the weak option,
Or be strong and admit you were taken in by the lies and try to grow
I make mistakes, god don't I ever. But I try to learn, I hope I'm a better person.
Actually this is this war in a nutshell, Putin fucked up, he thought, it will be over in a week , Ukraine will be mine and my name in history books, instead here we are day 500 plus of the war and he's still insisting oh it's perfectly to plan. Russia strong
Um lots of ppl are dying in the counter offensive, I was at front lines a few days ago, yeah lots of death, from what I could see more Russians dying than Ukrainians which is very unusual when you are in defending. But hey corruption in Russia is large thus shit equipment , still sad to see all the Russian and Ukrainian dead, yes the Russian families have been fed a string of lies and brainwashed but still it's their dead child that comes home (mostly likely not, lot of pieces)
War is fucked really fucked
Lost my phone.
2 things wrong
1. Someone suggested let's go to the cherry bar, well this ain't bad
2. Me deciding to wear my jeans with hole in pocket
Deadly combo.
Fucken hectic after that with help of Ukrainian mate trying to track it down, from someone selling it 2nd hand but me not sure if it was the one etc.
Eventually got a cheap 2nd hand one, a mission in itself.
Then trying to get access to my accounts, cause they all want to verify it's me by using a phone. Still couldn't use bank as they need my SIM card, I'm going back to Barcelona though in a few days cause now I can't access funds.
Went to the 2nd most destroyed town in Ukraine, spent the night and since water was not working left a big turd in the toilet as parting gift.
Currently someone is letting me sleep in their empty apartment for free and spent the other night on someone's floor, she fed me well also. Now off to get some free food where I work.
Better than on the bed.
No I paid for that place. The water was not working so I couldn't flush, have a shower etc. I even was forced to use toilet paper to wipe my ass
Yeah you hear me I was forced to wipe my ass with toilet paper like a retard brain washed imbecile, though I admit as soon as I got bad to civilianisation I washed my ass with shower. Nah mate I'm going back prematurely after losing phone really pissed 1. Goin back to Barca humidity and 2 I have so many friends here. Like today excit metro wrong stop and gps not work cause of gps spoffing, 5 secs later I run into my mate from Nigeria he told me where to go (was wrong) event I make it back
Ha got off at wrong station yesterday, who did I see but my mate from Lagos nigeria, literally outside the station walking by, as gps was not working, due to Russian attack, I asked him what way to go, he told le literally the wrong way. Fucking cunt.ha ha. After 30mins gps was turned on again, so ended up right place just an hour late
its not meant to be impressive, its just a flashback to the joys of travelling before GPS when you either had to consult a map or ask someone, fuck I used to spend hours getting from point A to point B. Someone countries esp in asia were terrible as in their culture they have to give answer even if they didnt know otherwise its offensive. So you'll ask for place C and instead of going I dont know the guy would just make up something. funny in hindsight but at the time PITA
OK to not pollute the shout box here. I will lay out some shit here
OK ever since a kid I've been fasinated by history (well sure everything, I was one of those kids that always questioned , always wanted to know, never took an answer "cause thats how it is")
never did - fucked here I in 2025 with my kid - she has my quesrtion - like trait https://photos.app.goo.gl/i8APCnewvM2PPcwv7
I remember back in the early 80s, getting into history grandma had these history books, like volumes the history of the 20th century from 1965 I think
