Apparently Bornholm, the island near the Nordstream leaks is having a complete power outage, possibly because undersea cables have been cut.

Needs confirmation, but if true this, and the attacks on ukrainian cities today point at Putin choosing further escalation.

Though all the artists who post NSFW art there that gets flagged as not viewable without an account does sometimes get me tempted, it really ain't worth getting immersed in the cesspool.

Not surprising since the Russian Navy has been pushed to use force to project power in their neighbouring waters. Yet I'd give them the benefit of the doubt here until more information comes out; undersea cables can get damaged in any number of ways and this could just be poor timing. This cable has been damaged in the past by someone's anchor getting caught in it for example and these sorts of cables can be damaged by sealife, by earthquakes, passing ship traffic e.t.c.

Latest news is that it was not sabotage but a local issue.

[Loud Whispers]

Yeah that's why I'm not surprised. These kinds of things are fairly common, in the Atlantic they have to do something like 50 repairs every year

I forgot why do we need to know how to say hovercraft in Russian?

Absolutely no reason.

But, if you'll forgive a totally unrelated diversion while I'm passing through, I happen to have a stock of anguilla. If anyone wants any, I can deliver them to you. Almost anywhere that's not up a steep slope or across a cattle-grid, that is.

Damn, has it occured to any of you that Sergei Surovikin (the new Russian battlefield commander) looks very similar to Dr. Evil?

He will have bad tempered dolphins... With laser beams... Attack nordstream

And "One million roubles!" is only about US$16k, so hilarity ensues. (Even a (short) billion is still pocket-change!)

Meanwhile, Russia added Meta to its list of terrorist and extremist organizations

I'd guess that would be Putin. He is, after all, quite the short fellow.

That was long ago. But yeah, any company that stands up to Russia is at risk of that. Not that they're exactly saints themselves tbh.

Apparently last rocket strike on Kiyv messed up electricity supply, so it is now supposedly turned off "for economy" for 4 hours per day at certain times. In reality time when it is turned off is completely random and varies by house, so some houses, like mine, are barely affected at all, and in some light is turned off along with water for 20 hours per day, and 4 hours when they are on are in the dead of night. There is, of course, much swearing.
