Of course he took an Uber to the front.   

Damn...though that reminds me of the Taxi's of the Battle of the Marne, or the Dunkirk fleet.  Get it done however you can.

Damn...God bless them all, including the Uber driver.

I assume this is what DetCord referenced last week.  Hope he comes through OK and does some good.

For all we know that could have been DetCord speaking English in that video.

No way...the guy in the video was way too much of a pussy to be Detcord.

[Sir Slash]

Yeah, you wouldn't see DetCord until....it's too late.

things seem to be developing nicely.

Mariupol surrounded and Russian tanks are going in...as stupid as that seems for the Russians. No water, gas or electricity in Mariupol either.

Great, sad article in The Atlantic by Ben Rhodes:

"Perhaps it is no coincidence that at precisely the time when living memory of World War II is fading away, humanity has failed to heed the lessons of our worst history."

"How much more strain could a creaky international system bear before it broke?"

"Putin has long been a source of these pressures, simultaneously dragging us back into the darker recesses of history while capitalizing on the vulnerabilities of our present moment. He was at the vanguard of autocrats who claimed power through democracy only to dismantle it. He enriched his circle by selling commodities to the West while lambasting its immorality. He disrupted the international system by taking advantage of the obstruction it afforded him."
