Ukraine has less than mediocre military performance. They have 700,000-600,000 troops yet fail to eject 200,000-150,000 Russian and separatist troops from their territory. The performance of their propaganda, however, is extraordinary.

From the Russian perspective this war is Operation Ukrainee Freedom, Brother war. The Russian goal is to eliminate Ukrainian state and culture, and integrate them into the federation. As a consequence, they used only an expeditionary force and did not use many weapons, like high powered FOAB and strategic bombing that could kill hundreds of thousands of civilians. The war is also managed politically, with baby steps like Putin managed the second Chechen war. Now the Russian people are annoyed at situation in Ukraine and Putin finally got the domestic support for escalation that he wanted all along. The worse the war goes for Russia, the more they will escalate. The Russians have not used vast majority of their air force or their 2 million reservists in this war yet (10% active in the American sense). They also have been collecting tens of thousands of volunteers for half a year. Their air force presence has actually increased, not decreased. The Russians also have not played hardball against Ukrainian civilians yet. They only recently started attacking Ukraine's power grid, with Zelensky claiming 40% of it is now damaged. Winter is coming and many Ukrainians will die, especially senior citizens. The Russians have not used much chemical/biological weapons or tactical nuclear weapons either to inflict mass civilian and military deaths. They have begun the first wave of partial mobilization, using units withdrawn from the Ukraine in April-August 2022. On the other hand, Ukraine has done many mobilizations already. Russian AFVs and missiles continue to flow around Russia and Ukraine as they conduct large scale maneuvers (like the big Volstok maneuver with the Chinese army recently). It is likely that the reservists and volunteers will be used to generate 3 additional infantry battalions per brigade per army doctrine. The Russian army now has approx. 370,000 additional troops slated to be used in the Ukraine, earliest at the end of 2022 and more likely in 2023. And if this does not work, they can do more mobilizations of reservists. The 'best case' scenario now is a weakened Russia but a long term Cold War II. Wonderful!

The problem is that it is unlikely that Ukraine/NATO will win the war. They won the war in the area of propaganda but not on the battlefield. It might be better if Russia wins the war. They would inherit a poison chalice (Ukraine) and will be absorbed, dealing with this disaster zone's problems.

NATO/US was not idle. They provided Ukraine with advisors, equipment and financial backing to rehabilitate their army and refurbish the Soviet arsenal they inherited. This is why they are an actual army in 2022 that isn't reflective of a 3rd world failed state that they are (with a 4,000-1,000 dollar GDP/capita, massive unemployment, organized crime, and overall being very poor ).

I'm not a fan of how Ukraine is trying to drag the US into direct war with Russia. If this happens it will go nuclear. Not only that but the US taxpayer has to foot the bill for most of the aid. If Europe could protect Ukraine conventionally with their own resources, it wouldn't be such a problem.

Had an incredibly stressful 6 1/2 week period. I lost some weight, and got more lean, to the point where my stomach was completely tight. Stress reduced my appetite a lot. But the stressful phase is over and my appetite returned. I overate 6 days in a row! Need to recalibrate my diet from now on.

From what other people have researched, he was a wealthy businessman before his transformation in the 'liver king'. I think it's for fun and attention, but he's also making a business out of it. Weird guy. To my understanding he blew up on social media really fast so this appears to be pre-planned. $4.1K - $65.3K ESTIMATED YEARLY EARNINGS Liver King's YouTube Stats (Summary Profile) - Social Blade Stats

Literally anything that was Tyrion vs Joffery/Tywin was amazing. Tywin/Hound vs arya was great as well.
