You won't believe what happened

In the southeastern part of the Kursk salient, Russian forces began counterattacks against the new Ukrainian positions in and around Cherkasskaya Konopelka and Fanaseevka.

Russian retreated a bit to let Ukrainian…

wait for it

Wait

A new pocket

Novosilka wasn't enough with a 100% wipe

Ukraine continues to having more pockets

This map seems to also now updating slow

Since Russian mod report of capturing after reinforcements has arrived

According to Zelenskyy, a "significant number" of enemy troops were destroyed. He gave no details but said the losses were in the hundreds.

Billions

Russia's Ministry of Defense said Saturday that it had repelled a Ukrainian counterattack in the Kursk region.

Russia said Friday its forces had captured the mining town of Toretsk in their latest breakthrough in eastern Ukraine's Donetsk region, where Ukrainian defenses are creaking. Ukrainian officials did not confirm the report.

I just love how the reporters sucker punch it

But let's ask our expert that knows everything Ukraine is doing is right:

@rdramamademegay

Since invasion of Kursk where Ukraine gained around 1400 km and now holding 400km and a town Sudzha with pre conflict population of 5000 people.

Ukraine lost those town with population over 10000 people: Kurakhove, Selydove, Hirnyk, Vuhledar, New York, Pivnichne, Ukrainsk, Krasnohorivka, Novohrodivka and of course Toretsk

You see that's why I love khohols they rush to lower the population of towns they are about to lose. I respect it and I am understandable so

So it's a 31k city.

And those clowns doing it other wise with Sudzha

They writing its population is 6k

While

So @rdramamademegay was it worth holding 400km of basically rural farm land in Kursk while losing land in the most populated and mineral rich region ? I ask pure rational question no need for emotional answers.

There is very good reason why Trump asking Zelenskyy to leave Kursk since Putin told there won't be any peace talk until Ukrainian are in Kursk and this month Ukraine is about to lose more than 400km in Kharkiv. Putin can get that land back when he wants and while Ukraine send its best men to Kursk and launches reckless offensive in zone where they are now outnumbered is a great gift for Putin in an attrition war.

Also here funny event

This week Korean soldiers left

But Ukraine offensive failed and they getting owned so this weekend

North Korean returned

I'm reading "Petersburg" as part of our book club, but because it's a one chapter per week basis I started "Brothers Karamazov" this week as I never read it before and I recently got a wonderful edition by Editora 34 (the only Dostoevsky book I had read was C&P).

So far I wonder if terrible fathers are just a recurrent theme on Dostoevsky's works.

@Aevann can you pls

Me and my partner are both plus size. We were having s*x doggy position and he slipped out and immediately try to go back in but went into my butt instead.

This is the second time within a month that the same incident has happened. First time I cried so much because it hurt and he comforted me. This time it hurt still as much but I didn't cry because I'm more mad than sad.

I'm mad because I've always told him that I never want to do anal it's not something for me and he brought up doing anal for the longest time until I told him I'd have to break up if this was a deal breaker because it's never happening and he let it go.

Now that this has happened twice so close together I feel as if it's been done on purpose. Only because we've always done doggy and when he slips he repositions himself gently back in he never just tries to immediately go back in.

He apologized and said "I'm sorry. It's my fault I've gained weight and my belly is more round so I couldn't see and didn't realize"

So am I to believe his belly blocked him and he was just into it that's why he didn't position himself gently back or was this done on purpose? He didn't stay in long only because I let out a scream and told him to get off. It just feels so close together to have the same thing happen twice when in our 2 year relationship this has never happened before.

JUST WANTED TO ADD: Thank you I just felt like I was overthinking this. Once I brushed it off as accidental but twice within a month is too much. He is currently snoring while I'm here with a bit of soreness, nothing compared to the first time it happened but still. This happening twice now… I don't want to think he did it on purpose but this is looking like it was. I'm not sure how to proceed if we didn't have a baby together I'd say it's over. But me being a sahm me leaving over this it just can't happen overnight.

I think I'll just refrain from s*x with him for a while. He's not an aggressive or mean person but this incident just has me needing to take a step back from being intimate.

Not to go there but we will look back at the insane cultural bubble that was 2019-2022 and the havoc it's wrought on pop culture with disbelief; it will legit be studied.

The way Disney has CRATERED its most valuable IPs in the service of fake cultural clout from what was always a vanishingly tiny minority and audiences that simply don't (and have never) existed as a way to take story telling shortcuts and up their ESG score. It's like something out of a dystopian novel, it nearly beggars belief.

Favorite bit is that he dislikes the term "pro-choice" because it "supposes that choosing to have a child cannot be wrong".

I support abortion rights, not "choice".

One day I checked my email and I received three separate emails (along with a few voicemails) from people very enthusiastically inviting me to "rdrama.net". Usually my email inbox is very slow, so to have multiple people emailing me over the course of one day was exciting. The emails I received told me that people were discussing my website on rdrama.net, and I was provided a link to this thread.

Link: https://rdrama.net/h/slackernews/post/330633/i-found-a-website-uglier-than

In this thread, people seemed bewildered by my opinions and blunt honesty, but they were unexpectedly welcoming and encouraging despite this (or probably because of this). I always have a hard time thinking about how others perceive me, since I will admit, I am fairly strange compared to the average person. I lose sight of this since I am me and I am living this strangeness 24/7, so what is completely normal to me is completely unique and new to other people. Sometimes I will say really stupid things to other people in public because I am slightly nervous when talking to people in person, so I have a harder time pacing my thoughts. This means that I sometimes lose sight of "normal" speak and my own internal words/phrases I made up. Once I gifted an acquaintance cookies. She thanked me and said the cookies were good. I got nervous, giggled, and said, "That's great, I hope they give you good mouth pleasure." The term "mouth pleasure" is one I made up to imply something is tasty, but out of context, it sounds completely sexual. After I said that, I felt my face turn red. Another time, I was talking to an acquaintance about delicious food I had just eaten and I casually said, "I one throated that food". The term "one throat" implies you ate something so quickly in one go, "one throat". But after saying it, I immediately realized that term was something I say to myself internally, not externally. It also sounds very similar to "deep throat", so I was embarrassed after I accidentally said that. (I originally heard this term on Impractical Jokers and it resonated with me.) All of this to say, my eccentricities sometimes make me seem more fascinating compared to other people, because other people are very similar to one another and thus, they do not stand out.

Also, someone in the rdrama.net thread was wondering if I was a . Is it because I use Arch? What about me emanates mentally ill man who shaves his taint? I took great offense to this, because what biological male has a cute face and is 4' 11"? That would be the absolute jackpot, and if I were a that had hit such a jackpot, I would definitely have capitalized on that. But instead, here I am writing this and making websites for s*x offenders, sans girldick. Plus, all s sound the same. They sound like a deranged Mickey Mouse, and my voice sounds nothing like that. I have a very authentic, biological, female voice. Perhaps you haven't spent enough time watching s to know this. I implore you to spend a few minutes educating yourself. Go to https://www.tgtube.com/

Here's an example of me talking versus how a sounds when he tries to sound like a girl. I've perfectly replicated how these mental basket cases talk via the power of Kdenlive.

Now you can spot a without even setting an eye on one. You're welcome for the masterclass in how to spot for blind people.

Overall, I was amused by this encounter because it was a glimpse into how people react when they visit my website and read my opinions. Usually I am completely blind to people's perceptions on these things, since there isn't a comment section on my HTML pages. It was also nice to see a website with a solid and active userbase that is completely separate from the usual r-slurred back-doored NSA Telegram chat, Groomercord group, or other NSA controlled "social media" website. I'm pretty sure rdrama.net uses Lemmy, which is open source (and federated) software that mirrors the Reddit look. If you are opposed to using reddit because you do not wish to start estrogen pills, then using a Lemmy instance would be a better solution for you.

In my case, while I appreciate the kind reception and invitations to rdrama.net, I am not a fan of the Reddit style/form of communication, nor do I tend to use websites that require accounts (withe exception of e-mail and my Peertube).

A lot of the time I prefer to post opinions and share ideas/responses anonymously, as this serves a few primary benefits:

1. No one will agree/disagree with my opinion simply because I said it. When I post an idea anonymously, I can get honest feedback that is not tainted by someone's opinion of me.

2. I generally do not use any website with a profile system. I don't like cliques that tend to come with profile-based websites. For example, on forums you will have cliques, a reputation, a post number history attached to your profile which seemingly dictates your worth. There are too many factors a profile adds that taint a discussion; as now the person is more important than the discussion at hand.

3. I can post something I do not actually mean without someone having the ability to confirm if I actually believe that thing due to my post history. Anonymity gives you freedom to be a completely different person. This allows anonymous posting to be much more fun due to its chaotic nature.

It's important to note that a website page is different from a discussion. While I operate a website where I write my thoughts/opinions, in a setting of discussion, I vastly prefer for ideas to hold value over who said the idea. When identities get involved in a discussion, the ideas can be tainted simply by the identity saying them. Whereas if the discussion was held anonymously, the thoughts and ideas are judged on their own merit alone.

I understand this is unconventional thinking for most people and that I am in a great minority. I personally prefer to operate like this, but I understand why most people do not have issues with profiles and discussions tied to an identity. While I personally do not make accounts on social websites due to my own personal beliefs, I think there is a good chance some of my readers may like this website. I think it's important to spend leisurely internet time on websites that are separate from globohomo ones. I encourage you to at least look at this website out of curiosity, and perhaps join if it's something you like. By having more users interact on such websites, it gives those who were once reluctant to use. Only a few years ago (around 2017) many open source federated websites were dead due to low adoptability since people did not want to use websites with a low userbase. Thanks to those who choose to use them regardless, it has given them more value, and thus, those who will only join is there is a sufficient userbase will now be more willing to utilize these better websites.

I encourage everyone to go and check out the rest of the column!

NFL players of all races lean very conservative. Remember this is a sport that has had ONE openly gay active player in its entire history, It's not exactly known for its progressivism and tolerance. There are only a couple of vocally liberal players and a whole lot more far-right ones who stay relatively quiet. (743)

Is basketball different? My cities team has a coach that will not shut the frick up about issues(complimentary)but I don't really get into sportsball so I thought that was common across the board. (59)

Angriest Comments

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

Let's stop pretending Taylor is some kind of helpless baby who's trapped in this relationship - she's obviously fine with dating a Trump supporter. She's a typical billionaire who's insulated from everything that's happening and about to happen to America and idk why she gets special treatment. (7874)

Listen I don't know a fricking thing about this subreddit and idk even know why it's recommended honestly but you hear me this:For as much good as taytay loves to purport I'll say this much as an aviation veteran with a decade experience working with private jets: this woman can frick right the frick off. The amount of fuel she shits into the atmosphere on the regular is worthy darn near of a war crime. Not to mention just the idea of how unabashedly gaudy it is, flashing her billions around while charging what, 4-500USD a ticket?I'm over the Taylor bullshit and I'm fricking left as they come. Way fricking left. (6)

Angriness: 😡😡😡🔘🔘

I'll likely be downmarseyd for this but this is just your standard straight down the middle athlete answer during media week, if you have a problem with the answer [which is fair] then it's less about him as an individual and more about the NFL's media training and stance as a whole. The same journ*list asked everyone else the same question on both teams and they all answered pretty much the same. They do it to create as little headlines and distractions as possible before the big game. The only reason this may get more attention despite a similar neutral answer to everyone else is because of the TS connection.We have seen Trump speak negatively on both Travis and Taylor previously. As someone who isn't much of a fan of his or the Chiefs he's publicly supported and advocated for causes and groups that are diametrically opposed to Trump. Whether it be Kelce's public stance on guns, LGBT rights, BLM movement or vaccination. There is also a podcast appearance where he says Trump is racis... (766)

This is a dude that kneeled with teammates during the national anthem, who donates to inner city youth, and is generally a decent dude doing pro-vaccine commercials, and other things. I don't know his personal beliefs, but he's also the ultimate team player. He's the least likely guy to make a media mistake during the biggest week of his life at the Superbowl. He didn't say he loves Donald Trump and he didn't say Frick him. Both that would blow up the story. He just said the President coming is an honor. It would be for any President that the head of the nation wants to watch you play. Even if they are not someone you like or support. Now, that saying Trump sucks, F him would cause trouble with his team, team owner, league, fan base, half the country, that is what really sucks. Not Travis's answer. For being a Chiefs fan, I don't like the NFL limiting players free speech by threat of job loss, the owners make the game almost unwatchable knowing that you are stuffing money i... (167)
