Edit2: I'll categorize this list by activity and create sub-categories later today and probably add to it over time. I put it together so it'd be easier for people to find fun fringe drama or otherwise be entertained. Enjoy!
Please comment if you have others to add to the list. I bit off more than I can chew because apparently there's thousands of these, so I omitted ones that were boring, inactive, and/or redundant.
General or Misc Fringe
New Age
Paranoid/Classic
Religion, Politics, & Conspiracy (aka BORING)
Occult
Scientific & Historical
Lifestyle
Lite

It's better than Seinfeld at least, Skinner keeps pledging to worship ancient gods in exchange for a new dish.

Assuming the war costs Russia about 10 billion USD per day, that's 3.65 trillion per year. Russian GDP in 2021 was 1.78 Trillion USD. Which means that every year their costs are double of their income. It is not a sustainable model. Russia isn't a wealthy enough economy to sustain a forever war. Going by total wealth of countries, Russia is supposed to be worth 3.789 trillion USD.
Even if we assume that Russia is just losing older equipment and that's the primary cost being counted, they are still running out of equipment faster than they can reproduce it.
Let's take the lowest limit. Assume Russia war only costs 1 billion USD per day, that's 365 billion USD per year. About 20% of Russia's yearly economy going to a war they are not winning.
That is going to leave a severe economic dent that cannot be recovered anytime soon.
Even if the world buys all their oil you cannot just reverse a 20% loss per year then make additional money on top to keep the economy growing.
That is to say, from a geopolitical perspective, Russia does not win this war due to economic factors. China benefits from this war not by ensuring that Russia wins or is constantly funded by China, but rather by ensuring that western growth might be slowed down a bit via fighting Russia thus allowing China some breathing space to keep growing.
In conclusion - Russia's war is not a sustainable model.
Add in the fact that even missiles cost money, about 4 million per missile as per the numbers I found online, and Russia is launching about 300 per wave a day, that's 1.2 billion in missiles only every single day.
So obviously Russian total war costs are way above 1 billion a day.
Conclusion - Russia will lose this war. After the war Russia splitting is a real possibility.

If tomorrow all the things were gone
I worked for all my life
And I had to start again
With just my children and my wife
I thank my lucky stars
To be living here today
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom
And they can't take that away
And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me
And I'd gladly stand up next to you
And defend Her still today
'Cause there ain't no doubt
I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.
From the lakes of Minnesota
To the hills of Tennessee
Across the plains of Texas
From sea to shining sea
From Detroit down to Houston
And New York to L.A.
Where's pride in every American heart
And it's time we stand and say
That I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me
And I'd gladly stand up next to you
And defend Her still today
'Cause there ain't no doubt
I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.
And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me
And I'd gladly stand up next to you
And defend Her still today
'Cause there ain't no doubt
I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.
