Don’t know if it even made the news outside Ukraine.
Three combined heat and power plants fully stopped working after last night’s enormous attack. Unclear if anything can be fixed, millions of people are completely without electricity, heating or running water. Before winter.

similar to this, it's bad form in my book to pirate independently made works of art.
like, go ahead and pirate the latest hollywood blockbuster or triple-a video game. But there's a reason why I bought the Hundreds of Beavers blu-ray despite it being free with ads on youtube.

You can pirate almost any form of media… except books.
Go to your local library.

I am not sure if that is because I am a Taurus, or because I am neurospicy because I feel called out
HOROSCOPE FOR CARTOONISTS
♉ Taurus (Apr 20–May 20):
You crave comfort and stability, which is why you’ve drawn the same character eating the same sandwich in five panels. It’s not lazy — it’s cozy storytelling.

Update: ILoveKPALot falsely flagged another content creator’s video on her, because it showed her history as a terribleboss, a vindicative brat, and a self obsessed womanchild. She pushed a false rape claim against Saber just because his channel did better and be did not date her.

So after pushing a false rape allegation at Saberspark and trying to blacklist her former editors, ILoveKimPossible is now falsely copyright claiming any channel that is basically showing all her dirty laundry. Just letting folks know she seems to be a very vindictive and corrupt person.

this is the Jesse Singal exception.
it reads *extremely* like Jay's excuses last year not to ban the literal neo-Nazi who was making death threats
then it turned out Jay and half the devs were following the neo-Nazi

There has been a rush among centrists like Gavin Newsom and Ezra Klein to brush over the hateful life of Charlie Kirk and valorize the man.
Let me be clear, killing Charlie Kirk was wrong and abhorrent.
We must condemn murder without sanitizing a man who built his empire on hate.

We Must Not Posthumously Sanitize Charlie Kirk's Hateful Life
Influential anti-LGBTQ+ activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated on Wednesday. While condemning violence is something most can get behind, sanitization of his hate has gone too far.
