Still deciding what is what in re: Russia-Ukraine conflict

 Popping around through various sources just makes me wonder who is the worst.

No doubt Tsar-to-be Vladimir Putin is not anyone's favorite, but there's been some tidbits am seeing that Ukraine's leaders are not as wholesome as they appear, which means there may be a very thin thread of proof that Russia feels justified in launching this conflict (or expanding it since it's been going on at a lower level since 2014 when Russia annexed the Crimea.)

With RT America getting shut down and the parent network pretty much black-listed on most media platforms, been looking at France 24 and Euronews for a different perspective.  Times like this is when I wish I still had my Ku-band dish setup so can see the feeds directly.

So when in doubt, keep an open mind.

And the insanity keeps on a-rollin'

 On the brighter side: no more mask mandates here in Nevada.

Even better on the bright side: was able to go visit my girl up in Canada for couple of weeks (cost me a bunch but it was worth it, considering it has been nearly 2 years since I hugged and kissed her last.

Now for the downers:

We're on the verge of hyper-inflation thanks to Sleepy Joe's energy policies and his lack of economic sense, plus add in the conflict in Ukraine courtesy of future Tsar Vladimir Putin, but from what I am gathering, the origins are not as clear-cut as the mainstream press makes it out to be.

Meanwhile, I just keep plugging away and hoping things get better.
