IN my city there was a case in which cops did watch a joint for a couple of days multiple days per week. They noticed that the amount of real customers was much much lower than the earnings reported. So they took quite a bit of money and had that money laundering charge.

There is Defence in depth, which means giving up territory for strategic gains and to keep your units intact. It also enables you to create situation that are favorable for you to attack and stretches enemy supply lines.

In terms of the Southern attack into the direction of Crimea defense in depth can't be used too well as the supply line is either north of the sea and thus on land, which is good, or over the bridge and all the way over Crimea which is bad.

So the extreme points are holding completely (which means focusing your troops on that area, which means that other areas are more easy to be contested), or withdrawing after tactical fights to lure the enemy into your formerly held territory. A mixture will happen. When Ukraine is able to push further into the territory a natural response would be to try to create pincer movements with reinforcements to make the forward troops encircled and force withdrawal.

Since all this happens in areas of mine fields (at the front) and artillery barrages both sides are currently focusing plenty forces which is dependent on supply chains. This doesn't mean it is a trench or positional warfare, but only has some elements of it within that area.

Reminds me how is Niger / Burkina Faso / Mali going?

The sympathy for Laika is understandable and very human. It is just.

However the instrumentation of her death is anti communist. Why did the Western world so much care for one dog when they did kill countless animals - including dogs - for commercial usage (and I don't even mean animal agriculture!) with little and no scientific gain?

Anticommunism. The Canine Defense League (a name that was chosen for its continuity) was leveraging Laika progpagandistically and did quite a bit of Sinophobia during that time, too.

KINGDOM OF CONSCIENCE – Moralists don't really have beliefs. Sometimes they stumble on one, like on a child's toy left on the carpet. The toy must be put away immediately. And the child reprimanded. Centrism isn't change -- not even incremental change. It is control. Over yourself and the world. Exercise it. Look up at the sky, at the dark shapes of Coalition airships hanging there. Ask yourself: is there something sinister in moralism? And then answer: no. God is in his heaven. Everything is normal on Earth.

Peasants are gardeners and fought and won wars. Florian Geyer and alike are a famous pop cultural icon.

No worries, Junefall rather than Bro. At least if you use "Bro" as gendered term (or you want to be friendly, then use the name or "you" instead).

Also before I write more: I read that you commented and read what others wrote and answered, so I want to iterate that you are welcome here. You seem to be good faithed.

I dislike labeling myself as handicapped (well in my first language), as while my body and head work different to most of my friends and the people I meet outside there is no "norm", no default to which to conform to. Our bodies just are, they are shaped by evolution and such, but each body is unique and individual, there is no idealist perfected version of me. So while I can do some things and can't do other things are well or better than others mostly I am handicapped by society.

Society demands a ton of stuff which is not possible for me and stuff that is easy for me they act as if it is a hard incomprehensible thing to do. A friend of mine uses a wheelchair and society builds doors which in old buildings are often too small to get in, this is discrimination (handicap) by society, she does also bring her own chair to events (the wheelchair) which sometimes is troublesome when the tables or chairs in the room are bolted down to the ground and it also means that society does accommodate for people who need chairs (though not for me who can't properly sit on most chairs).

Basically my body is as it is and got its problems which could be better, but that is just life. I use tools and medication to improve how it works, but what I can and can't do is often mediated by society and society is which does actively handicap me. It is a concept I didn't come up with, but which re-framed how I think, so I just took it for me. Some aspects of it are covered under the so called: Social model of disability, but it isn't a 100% fit for me.

Same happened to an account of mine.

Good for speculation though!

If stuff as well as yours had existed in 2004 when IRC "died" and facebook etc. grew we might still have functioning decentralized boards as default right now.
