Sunday Music: Crazy

 


Seal's first Top Ten hit from his 1990 debut album, which put him on the music map, until 1995's "Kiss From A Rose" launched him into the stratosphere of headliners.

Claiming that Ukrainian television said (I can't read Cyrillic or whatever that is in the picture, so it could just as easily be a million plus rounds expended or something) that there's been over a million Ukrainian casualties since the invasion started. Or rather, claiming that the typo wasn't a typo. Do I smell cope, or is this actually a possibility? Math makes my head hurt right now.

If that's the sum total of all dead, wounded, and missing for Ukrainian civilians and military, I don't see any reason to doubt the number.

The whole point of "missing" is nobody knows what's happened to them.
Starting with whole swaths of Ukrainian civilians "disappeared" during the Russian occupation of now-reclaimed towns and villages.

All those mass graves aren't filled with cotton candy.

Meanwhile, Russia's on its seventh/eighth/ninth/tenth invasion force, They're down a couple of dozen generals, and 1/3-1/2 of their January 2022 ground combat forces, and they haven't revealed how many they've lost since Feb 2022 either.

It's all 90% b.s, and absent notable change, they're just knocking each other off like Iran and Iraq did in the 1980s.
If Pootie wasn't a delusional homicidal maniac, he'd have tucked tail and abandoned this futile effort long since. The Ukrainians have demonstrated decisively that they'll never submit to being under Moscow's thumb again, beyond all rational argument. You can't conquer a people that won't quit. Ask the Vietnamese and Afghanis. Both managed to withstand the tender embraces of at least three world-leading empires each, for centuries.
