Russia be slippery. My heart goes out to these rare brave souls in a land of cowards.
Ballet stars, and their notoriously poor balance.
He seems to have astonishing balance for someone with one leg
This isn’t funny.
You’re just blessed enough not to recognize gallows humor. We’re actually jealous of you.
Unfortunately anti-russian racism is acceptable here. When you see a headline like this, just be ready for the comments.
Gallows humor about the suspicious deaths of people critical of an oligarchy is not racism.
Unless you are a wilfully credulous root vegetable of a person.
What exactly was racist?
A nice window to the future for US citizens critical of their government… a window ripe for defenestration…
If I die mysteriously from a fall, please refer to this comment.
Actually you will probably die in a Tesla whose doors do not open https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/friends-trapped-in-tesla-burned-to-death-when-electronic-doors-failed-to-open-after-crash/ar-AA1tWPYH
Or which just hits you: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/06/10/tesla-autopilot-crashes-elon-musk/
I mean now where Teslas are probably the next mandatory car for state officials. And after some “Think Tank” will be pretty sure that all the saftey fuss about autopilots is bad for the economy.
A window to the present for journalists critical of Israel.
I imagine Russia is like the Star Wars setting, lots of crazy steep drops and they never install railings.
The platform where Darth Vader confronts Luke has railings, so they clearly have the parts, tools, and a guy who installs them. Maybe he’s just held up on Level B?
Or maybe they literally one have that one guy/gal installing the railings throughout the entire Republic‽
I hope ey finished the job on the Death Star and didn’t explode with it. Cause then it would be zero people installing railings afterwards
They are a contractor. They was obviously on a different job starting that before they came back to the Death Star.
They really could use some railings over there.
Stay on the ground floor, Russians.
Heart attacks happens on every floor.
So do poisonings, and shootings but we’re just mitigating circumstances here lol.
There could always be a feral bullet that has ran away from it’s gun!
They don’t have any budget to do it differently or it’s a power move, like, it’s not official but you know it?
Power move. That and shooting yourself, in the back, multiple times.
It’s a calling card. Everyone knows what happened, not a single soul will comment on it. Unless they fancy being the next up for flight lessons.
I wonder how Red Bull sales are in Russia.
What do you think Trump’s calling card will be? McDonalds induced heart attack?
Government issued tesla drove into a lake and drowned the occupants.
Without the textbook.
Happy Cakeday! 🍰🎂
This just piles up on the reasons Russia needs to be denuclearisased, putin getting ousted, democracy installed and so on.
Good news Russias economy is in the toilet and someone has started flushing already, Ukrain will prevail and hopefully we’ll have peace one day.
Russia is Game of Thrones in real life. I wouldn’t bet on positive change there.
More realistically, he’ll probably die of old age or be ousted by someone younger and more exciting to the wealthy elite that keep Putin in power. Real change may come after that, but a change in leadership is not going to immediately fix long term issues like corruption, wealth disparity, etc.
I think they will become a Chinese vassal.
I don’t know exactly what that’d look like, but the pure economic/political dynamics make it seem kinda inevitable.
A unified China/Russia alliance sounds like a player in a near future sci-fi, so I’ll take that as a good sign
Unless the Russians violently purge there elites, a new dictator will take the seat before the corpse is cold. He may even hold a sham election to “legitimize” himself as the best person to sand next to a window with.
True. Another possibility is that the economy (and infrastructure gotten their maintenance money stolen for 20 years and starts to crumble) goes down with a skyrocketing inflation going to the moon killing the ruble, and who knows what happens when you can’t pay your army any more …
Interesting times for russia.
Oh, so China expands to fill that void and hands out a portion to Kim Jong Link before repainting things?
I doubt the USA would let them do that freely, but it’s an interesting take.
Take it with a grain of salt, as I am not an expert, but it looks like China would prefer an ‘independent’ country that is ruled by Chinese government in secret. That way they don’t need to fix and repair all the shit, and can only spend bare minimum of effort needed to keep

“in an apparent suicide, putin critic ________ shot himself in the back 20 times. more at 11”
He’s gonna do it again at 11? Damn, that’s super sus.
Gotta give him time to reload.
