Welcome again to everybody! Make yourself at home. Sit down in that chair over there. Is anyone reading this? Take off your shoes, please; I just cleaned that carpet. In the time-honoured tradition of our group, here is our weekly discussion thread!

Surovikin’s plan is likely as follows: > Destroy Ukraine’s electric grid, water processing plants, critical infrastructure, etc. > It starts to get pretty cold >People think, “dang, I don’t want to freeze to death” >They move the West, which has energy problems of its own and a refugee crisis >Ukraine’s economy is by now not even crippled, it is disemboweled and shot in the head >Ukraine’s home front collapses, leaving its military out in the cold >Ukraine depends entirely on the West for weapons and money to keep fighting >The West is in economic crisis and can’t afford it anymore >Russia wins. Like, this plan is pretty fricking brutal, but I don’t think a lot of people are going to actually die from it. Also, Ukraine blocked water from Crimea for 8 years, so like, idk
With Russia providing an alternative water and electricity lines since pretty much the start of the takeover. It wasn’t much fun for the locals. Even with the much warmer climate.
It’s currently around +1C during the day in Kiev, and colder during the night.
