    Misc. European politics

    Wasn't part of the USSR, but it WAS a founding member of the Warsaw Pact and the USSR invaded Hungary in the 1950s to put an end to a democratic revolution in the country. It was, for many years, a puppet of Soviet Russia.

    The MST3K thread by Gizmonics

    Episode 2 has dropped. good episode overall, though I thought it was a bit weaker than the previous one. Felt the riffs were better in the second half than the first, though the robot mechanic bit during the opening credits of the movie was great. The David Attenborough bits were fantastic as...

    Nobody has the intention to invade Ukraine

    This forum also has a rather high anti-athoritarian bent and Putin is the very definition of an athoritarian.

    Nobody has the intention to invade Ukraine

    Indeed. Given Putin's control over the media narrative in Russia, would said poll(based in MOSCOW) even RISK putting out a poll critical of Putin?

    Nobody has the intention to invade Ukraine

    Tracks well. The lower rank members of the Russian military we all born either after Putin rose to power or shortly before. They are also mostly from poorer families who likely couldn't afford decent Internet.

    The Random Image Thread

    Eh, depends on the results. On on hand it could increase the heat at surface level making the rest of the terraforming process easier, on the other it could awaken a long dormant creature slumbering beneath the Martian surface that decides that Earth looks like a nice spot to feed.

    The MST3K thread by Gizmonics

    Brand spankin' new short tomorrow along with the livestream of Manos. The shorts are generally awesome and, outside a couple of special events, I think this is the first time we've had a proper stand-alone short episode(wonder if it will have a host segment or JUST be the riffed short).

    Nobody has the intention to invade Ukraine

    So Putin thinks he IS Russia now.

    Nobody has the intention to invade Ukraine

    The Soviet ballads part is rather telling of Putin's ultimate goals. He really wants to be the next Stalin, like REALLY WANTS to be the next Stalin. Hopefully he just ends up being a second-rate Mussolini and his own people take care of him.

    Nobody has the intention to invade Ukraine

    Putin is also almost 70 and by the looks of it MIGHT be undergoing cancer treatments, though the Russian media will never admit that.

    Mary Jo Phel and J Elvis Weinstein are both permanent members of the writing staff this season. Having two more seasoned riffers on the team definitely helps.

    Nobody has the intention to invade Ukraine

    The idea is that it gives an avenue for discussion once said party wises up or becomes desperate enough to try talking instead of fighting. I fear Russia can't be reasoned with until Putin is gone at this point, though.

    Nobody has the intention to invade Ukraine

    What's the difference between a military offensive and a war exactly? Two nations are fighting each other using lethal weapons sanctioned by their respective governments, that's war, always has been(police actions and the like are STILL war, it's stupid when the US tries to use such semantics...

    Nobody has the intention to invade Ukraine

    I've often wondered that myself. Putin surrounded himself with corrupt officials who tell him what he wants to hear and skim a good chunk of the nations budget into their own pockets. If the equipment they are using in Ukraine is any indication, there's a good chance their nuclear arsenal is...

    The MST3K thread by Gizmonics

    There's an MST3K app available for Roku, Apple TV, Android TV, Amazon Fire Stick and some Samsung TV's. I used the Roku app to watch it yesterday. Apparently it will also work on the PS4's web browser. Console apps aren't currently being developed, unfortunately.
