In a significant escalation of East-West tensions over Russia's invasion of Ukraine, President Vladimir Putin ordered Russian nuclear deterrent forces put on high alert Sunday. He said the move was a response to "aggressive statements" by leading NATO powers and economic sanctions by the West. "

Do you think the US will respond to this?
I don't see how they can't tbh.
2020 Bingo was interesting.

It's petty of me to be pleased by this, but, Putins suspension by the International Judo Federation has got to have smarted a little.

This is the best overview of the current military situation I could find. By a retired British General, no less.

It's legitimate salvage.

It might be better described as a "battle(field) pick-up".  Just make sure to put some updated markings on it!   :smiley_clap:

It may not be much, but Virginia (where sales of liquor are controlled by the state government) has removed Vodka sourced from Russia from its shelves in support of Ukraine.

A Canadian company is selling shirts to honor the Snake Island Heroes and the Ghost of Kyiv.

Click the "Why?" to see the organization they are sending the proceeds to. 

The website has had some difficulties since it was posted on Reddit, so if you're interested and can't get in, wait a while.  Also, Chrome seems to be better at landing a connection than Firefox.

Amazon has seen an uptick in sales of Ukrainian morale patches and t-shirts. Pretty much anything with "Ukraine" on it is selling really fast.

I need to pick up a couple new morale patches anyway, so I might snag a couple Ukraine flag ones while I'm at it.

Try to buy from a company supporting Ukraine if you can.  Nothing bought from Amazon is supporting them.

They need to rename that APC.  Maybe call it the Rocinante.
