That's in Ruzzian Rubles, in the civilized world we refer to that as: two flat stones.

Invest in you old age: Superannuation or some other savings device. You need to put on as much as you possibly can as soon as you can but this needn't mean you plow all your income into it straight away. Transfer or invest as little as $20 per week initially, you'll never miss it and after a few weeks or months keep increasing the amount till you've reached your ceiling. Reinvest your earnings or dividends, compound interest is a beautiful thing.

You mean: Stephen Christopher Yaxley or possibly Andrew McMaster or perhaps Paul Harris or Wayne King (giggity) or even Stephen Lennon? My God this weirdo can't even decide what to call himself. How about we just agree to call him a fascist dickhead? I think that's appropriate.

Wow, they certainly don't fuck around do they?

Of course he is, I knows his chances of actually winning the popular vote is next to zero (again) so he's doing everything he can to try and save his orange arse. Because he knows that if he doesn't win then the best he can hope for is spending the next four years inside a variety of courthouses.

You're sorta right. The economies of sovereign nations are not particularly similar to small households, however continuously incurring debt without raising significant revenue will kneecap a country's economy (eg the UK). Rather than focusing exclusively on debt the IMF should be strongly encouraging countries like the UK to drive up revenue by all means. The most obvious way of doing this is by raising taxes. The IMF is, however, in the thrall of big money which is fundamentally opposed to tax's.

Same. They really capture the psychedelic nature of the song.

This is, hands down, the greatest version of this song.

Powerpop. What's not to like? Jangly guitars, vocal harmonies and killer hooks.

It's called a BLEVE (boiling liquid expanding vapor explosion) and they'the things of nightmares.

Video has been posted on social media purporting to show overnight Ukrainian attacks on a Russian air force base at Morozovsk, in Rostov Oblast, which is situated around 190 miles away from the nearest territory controlled by Kyiv.

The attacks were confirmed on Telegram by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, who said warehouses storing ammunition, including powerful glide bombs, were hit and that "information regarding the destruction of air-defense equipment and enemy aviation is being clarified."

 

Job cuts continue across the empire as the business model dies a slow death.

 

It’s the Ukrainians’ turn to bomb Russian positions into rubble.

Hundreds of Russian troops are surrounded in a chemical plant in Vovchansk, the main battleground in Russia’s northern offensive.

At least 30 of the Russians surrendered over the weekend. The others have nowhere to run and nowhere to hide. And now the Ukrainian air force has taken aim at them—with precision glide bombs.

 

Kyiv’s forces are due to receive the aircraft within weeks, but analysts say they are unlikely to be a game-changer.

 

Russian military bloggers said Ukrainian forces had managed to breach through defensive lines in places south of Orikhiv, a town around 6 miles north of Roboytne.

It is a sign Kyiv has decided to commit thousands of well-trained troops, previously held back in anticipation for a breakthrough, to the assault.
