Only because it’s now empty and all the devils are here

You and Franz Kafka.

Horny and stingy is not a good look.

The sphex wasp laying its larva in living, paralysed prey.

Russia is less susceptible to morale failure than more liberal countries, and can stumble on in zombie mode, a decaying corpse of a nation-state reanimated by force, terror and rhetoric, at least until enough of its limbs fall off to render it structurally incapable of shambling.

How many do they have left now? That’s the second one (IIRC) they’ve lost in this war, and they didn’t have many to begin with.
