Here is an article about 18 year olds signing up for the Russian Military and subsequently being sent out to Ukraine and dying out there:

http://en.vijesti.me/bbc/767624/From-the-classroom-to-the-front%3A-Russian-high-school-graduates-fighting-and-dying-in-Ukraine

It may give a useful timeline as to Derek Huffman's likely lifespan out there. Remembering too that as part of a foreign unit of ill trained fighters that they will likely be regarded as the least worthy to be held back from the front line meat grinder.

Russia is on a current military call up of Russians aged 18-30 year olds to replaced those they have previously called up. So some unfortunate young Russians will soon be joining this scene and the end of their lives also.

I know you like it, Trench, but as a woman I must say not wearing a bra, especially after her breasts become larger during child bearing/breastfeeding, is not a good idea as the breast might become droopy :)

Unfortunate to see that it looks like Ukraine could be in the verge of losing this war unless they get a big boost to manpower at the front and fast:

http://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/07/30/europe/russias-summer-offensive-ukraine-analysis-latam-intl

Essentially they need to drop conscription age to 18 as otherwise they risk not having a country to worry about rebuilding.

If Ukraine lose those front line cities then the whole Ukrainian line could completely collapse with Ukraine losing ground fast and probably struggling to re-established a new front line if at all.

some believe that time is a flat circle
and that history...
 is just a record of humanity as it keeps runnin 'round that same circle over and over again
but that's an illusion
that's not why history always seems to repeat itself

for example, Ghenghis Kahn and the Mongol Empire and the Silk Road
when Siberia was ruled by Beijing
and why this is repeating now with the "New Silk Road" from Beijing

history repeats when one dominant force is diminished and another rises to take it's place
and the pendulum swings from one side to the other
because it echoes the past, we view it as a repeat
but it's just the ebb and flow of the tide

Russia has been MASSIVELY DIMINISHED BY PUTIN
the consequences of this will work out in China's favor
as they step-by-step take control of Siberia's resources
Chinese and noth koreans are illegally used as labor in the far east, and they're NOT going home
in 10 more years, Russians will be a monority, as Russians leave, Chinese pour in

there are already forces building in Russia that will lead to China taking Russia over COMPLETELY
like it once DID centuries ago

would Europe be able to withstand a second Mongol Empire?
should the USA defend the world from the Mongols or should we be isolationist?

that'll be fer yur grandkids to figure out

cuz I won't phuqueing care what happens to ya'll due to me being dead
which is a debt to nature due,
that I will have paid
and some day, so must you

I believe this is true, already they have lost in Ukraine whether they end up taking Ukraine or not, it's taken them far too long and consumed far too many resources. Even if they take Ukraine they inherit a country with an economy as bad as theirs is.

Essentially Russia has been fighting at a similar pace to a world war. They are in their fourth year of doing so now and next year assuming they are still at it will be in their fifth year. So set against WWI & WWII performance they will be really hitting uncharted distances in terms of war longevity next year. All the while the Ukraine war is making them weaker and weaker doing compound damage. The Chinese must be laughing their arses off at Russia's foolishness. If Russia goes into next year with this war then seeing Russia turn into an economic weakling is going to be a hilarious sight. I would love to see Russia break up and never bother anyone again.

But you are right Krim, once a power like Russia uses up it's power like that it will become diminished and another power, in this case China will be one dominant. The same happened with Germany and then as Germany became diminished Russia took its place.

the WAR is essential for Putin to consolidate his power and increase his control in Russia
so he is in NO HURRY to end the war
why would he be?

his goal is NOT to win the WAR, instead, his goal is not to LOSE the war
because war is a tool he uses to keep the russian people tied to a chain

every Russian is a prisoner, out on "good behavior"
one phuque-up and it's "Dobre Den Ukrainia" or a gulag in Siberia

Russia will always be "The Volga River Boatmen" song
if yur a little kid, livin in an abusive orphanage
yur only option is to run away
the best and brightest, will have no trouble seein this
they're GONE ALREADY

the ending of Biden's support for Ukraine, has resulted in a 20% drop in Russian casualties

this is what keeps the war going "for Putin"
I WONDER who is responsible for that?

my guess, is Pee Wee Vermin

Russia turns any city/village they take over into gravel. There is no value to anything
they take.


But you are right Krim, once a power like Russia uses up it's power like that it will become diminished and another power, in this case China will be one dominant. The same happened with Germany and then as Germany became diminished Russia took its place.

Germany has the rule of law, an educated workforce and property rights. That's
why when East and West reunited that their economy jump started so quickly.
The FSU has an educated workforce.
FSUW are not for entry level daters
FSUW don't do vague
FSUW like a man of action. Be a man of action

corruption permeates EVERYTHING in Russia, even the corruption is corrupt
the poorest Russians are all owned and exploited by a kleptocracy
there's nothing in Russia that's HONEST or innocent

the Russian economy is NOT very productive
that's one reason salaries are so low

kleptocrats are people who used their positions of political power to gain control over state assets
AKA "Privitazatsi" and transfered it to themselves
AKA, "legal stealing"

Russia's poor do the kleptocrats labor for almost no money
they're like Irish sharecroppers

25% of Russia's total wealth is owned by 100 families
who have their roots as either apparchatiks, or organized crime
Putin is the godfather of all the Russian Mafiyas and Military/Industrial Complex combined
La Nuclear Costra Nostra

Russia's elections are all completely FAKED and choreographed
cuz Putin pulls all the strings for EVERYTHING in Russia
and he's sure not gonna allow himself to be replaced
