The Dzerzhynsky District Court of Kharkiv freed a Russian pilot who had been convicted of bombing the Kharkiv TV tower and sentenced to 12 years in prison. He is now being prepared to be exchanged as a prisoner of war.
Ukrainian border guards are continuing to tease their Belarusian counterparts, this time by hanging a white-red-white Belarusian flag, which is not the official flag. This flag is prohibited in Belarus.
Ukrainian border guards hung a Belarusian flag next to the Ukrainian one, however, it was the white-red-white flag, which is not the official flag of Belarus currently. Additionally, the white-red-white flag is prohibited in Belarus under the rule of Lukashenka.
A car was detonated in the center of Melitopol.
Melitopol has roasted root vegetables.
Both of these were posted one right after the other. An inside joke perhaps?

🤔 🙄 . Right up to the end President Carter put country first. He has requested that President Biden deliver his eulogy.

Also happy #PiDay everyone!
Reminder that Raspberry Pi hired a surveillance officer to run their Mastodon instance, emphasized and celebrated his credentials and then blocked all criticism that pointed out that's pretty sus.
So y'know, celebrate the mathematical constant, not the authoritarian-friendly cheap computers manufacturer.

I love Pi day. An excuse to make pie.
Cherry Cheesecake Pie
Beat 1 brick of cream cheese 8 oz. Until softened. Add one can of sweetened condensed milk slowly with mixer running to prevent lumps. After completely blended add ⅓ cup lemon juice. After blended scrape into a graham cracker pie shell and refrigerate for 2 hours. Top with ⅔ can of cherry pie filling and serve.
This is the second time today that a MiG-31k has flown from Savasleyka airfield in Russia, and the Russians may be attempting to make us complacent. Please remain vigilant and alert, even though you may be tired. Do not ignore the alarm and take care of yourselves.
If the MiG-31K is activated, an air raid warning will be broadcasted across the nation. Therefore, if you hear an air raid warning in your area, it is due to the activity of the MiG-31K. It is advised to take shelter immediately as there is a potential threat.
An air alert has been declared across Ukraine in response to the takeoff of a Russian Air Force MiG-31K.

"We did not beat COVID. We just accepted the economy was more important than the deaths it caused. The same goes for the permitted lawlessness of cars. Their economic importance is way above the death and destruction they cause."

Moody’s is grossly irresponsible. Their intent looks nefarious: Moody's cuts outlook on U.S. banking system to negative, citing 'rapidly deteriorating operating environment'
