It reminds me somewhat of the Nazi (occupied Norway) Kultur-Terror that has a chimeric monster, including a naturally sibling KKK as the head. The Tates oppose Western liberal democracy and are chauvinist, yes. But they're also half Black and modern pimps (sex traffic is ok though, just not pimping)
I really don't get the point of taking something already cute and making it cuter. This is one snapped at least as far back as 2013, well before AI, and it really doesn't need the Super Mario World sprite glow-up to be the cutest of all octopodes.
Oh plenty of people noticed, lol. Literally talking about it at the time on camera, fully admitted by the Kremlin later. Crimean legislature dissolved at gunpoint by Girkin, admitted to on Russian TV. That's an invasion skippy www.rferl.org/a/russian-so...
LMAO the majority of Kyiv is Russian speaking as well, as is anywhere that's not Ivano-Frankivsk. Russian was never a constitutional language, so constitutional rights were never withdrawn, and Russian is as free as any other language to be offered as a private language including commerce.
In fairness given how big those things are there's not much else for him to regard.
His beard style is one I distinctly associate with urban yuppie cokeheads from the 80s.
I love that German Wikipedia used that carefully manicured beard to basically highlight that campaign managers made him grow it to hide his weak chin and jawline
Hey you know what's super cool? When you respect trans people enough to respect their individual and personal desires to talk about their experiences in the way they see fit, like say their own published autobiography.
If it helps salvage your mood slightly, as it did mine, I found this in there.
I mean seriously look. Notice how none of them look like they rummaged through the lost and found at the Grand Ole Opry's coat check?
Perhaps in your literacy you could go click the link that says 'norms'. Because truly nothing suggests that literacy like confusing standard deviations for, uh, let's see... a binding principle on acceptable behavior.

Aw man am I going to have to add Culver's Shrimp to the Heritage Foundation studies?
Man it makes me nostalgic for when Fox ran ridiculous shit like this.
A world where Zohran Mamdani is a bigger chud than Ezra Klein. Also note I'm a chud because the test questions ARE poor. Forced diversity actually is bad, because marginalized people deserve their own full fledged roles and heroes, not white hand-me-downs. But Chuds think all diversity is forced.
Apparently Zohran and I are more chud-like than I have either of us discredit for.
"Maybe if I cater to Nazis the Nazis will support us" has been a losing argument since as long as there have been Nazis.
Me and my wife (for ref, an agnostic-leaning-atheist Canadian married to a spiritual-leaning-religious Ukrainian) Culture matters.

The caveat Trofimov put on it after is unintentionally hilarious, because when has Trump ever explained anything like any other U.S. president? This won't restrain Trump if he thinks it solves his immediate problem and decides not to listen to what adults are left in the room.
Christ, is was barely nothing o'clock since they gave us the ultimate stink-eye and now they realized the grift drives eyeballs.
... the US is the evil bad guy because an American serviceman got a tattoo of evil bad guys *what the fuck am I reading* this is literally actually fucking dumber than this cartoon.
Nazis, of course, actually copied it from Prussian Hussars, notably a *cavalry* formation who (infamously) don't fight at sea, which shows how ignorant your historical analysis is, and they modified the Hussar busby badge into their unique Totenkopf-SS version. Guess which version Platner had?
