A los ciudadanos rusos se les dice que se preparen para las “fuerzas nucleares entrantes” mientras Putin hace sonar la sirena de la Tercera Guerra Mundial

Rusia ha dado instrucciones al público para que comience a prepararse para un inminente estallido de la Tercera Guerra Mundial mientras el presidente Vladimir Putin advierte que Estados Unidos se está preparando para lanzar bombas nucleares sobre el país.

Millions of children at every Russian school wore gas masks while civilians flocked to bomb shelters and workers hid under benches.

Bone chilling messages were also broadcast live as Putin ordered all 142 million residents to comply with the WW3 drill.

NN reports: As part of the extensive drills, emergency crews wearing hazmat gear swarmed the streets.

Footage even shows schoolchildren being taught how to correctly don gas masks.

Sirens and loudspeakers were sounded in all regions across Russia’s 11 time zones in drills that spawned two days.

It was Russia’s first nationwide civil defence exercise as Putin prepares his people for a nuclear war with the West.

As a chilling alarm bellowed out in cities and towns everywhere, a message sounded declaring: “Attention everyone!”

Emergency services gathered in hazmat suits to carry out protocol as part of the exercise.

One group ran from a building with a dummy body on a stretcher accompanied by a pack of dogs.

Heavily armoured and spiked doors also appeared to close off an underground bunker holding officials and Russian police.

Chilling messages were splashed on TV screens as programmes were interrupted.

They read: “Attention, everyone!

“There is a check of readiness of the warning system to the population.

“Please remain calm.”

The same wording boomed out from loudspeakers nationwide.

Firefighters rushed to put out a blaze as ambulances and other teams worked around them during the surreal exercise.

Workers wearing eerie hazmat suits also stuck signs into the ground on the side of the road.

The exercise was based on the assumption of a giant nuclear attack from the West.

The “legend” assumed martial law had been introduced and that Russia had gone through full mobilisation.

In one city Volgograd, two shelters were used as part of the drill.

One could accommodate up to 36,000 people.

“The main goal of the drills is to check our readiness for specific actions,” said emergencies minister Alexander Kurenkov who oversaw the drills.

In a real nuclear war, Vladimir Putin would be calling the shots.

He is known to have multiple nuclear bunkers in his palaces as well as a fleet of “Doomsday” Il-80 Maxdome aircraft for use in the event of atomic war.

In Moscow, alarms were supposed to go off at 10:43 a.m. for one minute.

However, some sounded at night and other residents heard nothing at all.

Many residents in other cities like Novosibirsk and Vladivostok heard nothing.

The emergency alert tests occurred just a few hours after the Russian defence ministry claims to have shot down 31 Ukrainian drones.

In a statement on Telegram, the defence ministry said: “Attempts by the Kyiv regime to carry out terrorist attacks on targets on the territory of the Russian Federation were stopped.”

But Irina Tsukerman, a national security lawyer and geopolitical analyst, told The Express: “Putin is not seriously concerned about possibility of a nuclear or other major scale attack by NATO.

“The practice of martial law is particularly useful as Putin continues to crack down and isolate Russia from external influence.

“In reality, Russia is not preparing for a nuclear attack; it’s preparing for a long-term imposition of internal restrictions, such as martial law.”

The United States also carried a wide-scale check of its public warning systems this week.

If you have a cellphone or were watching television Wednesday, you should have seen that message flash across your screen as the federal government tested its emergency alert system used to tell people about emergencies.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency said: the purpose of the test is to ensure the systems “continue to be effective in alerting the public to emergencies, particularly at the national level.”

You’re walking down a long quiet road. It’s winter, snow covers the ground, the sky fades gray. All around you are trees that have long since dropped their leaves, cold and dead, waiting for spring. You stop beneath one, eye caught by a striking sight. Amid the bare branches you see a round bundle of stunning green leaves. Hanging down above you are dozens of beautiful little pearly white berries. The fruit tempts you, but you don’t dare touch. Instead you simply admire them. Life among the dead of winter. Mistletoe.

@slocotion Hi, here is my design for slocotion's patreon dyo doll contest. Her name is Haustoria of the Pale. I was very excited to put this together once it struck me. I thought of all my favorite fruits I could have used but then inspiration hit me as I was considering less common fruits and fungi. Mistletoe is used medicinally by some but the entire plant, including its cute white berries, is toxic. Since this is a longer post, I’ll include more notes on my design under a cut but to point out the most important thing, I’ve combined the nature of the toxic berries with some historical+mythological inspiration that I think echoes it nicely.

In Norse mythology, a well known story is that of the death of Baldr. Baldr was the most loved god of the Aesir, so when a vision of his death reached his parents Odin and Frigga, they did all they could to protect him. Frigga sent her servants all over the world to make every creature and thing vow to never harm a hair on Baldr’s head. All but mistletoe promised, too insignificant or too young to make the vow. After it was done, Bladr seemed invincible. Since nothing was willing to hurt him, the gods would sometimes gather around and throw things at him, watching everything bounce off without injuring him. Loki, jealous of the love and affection that was always paid to Baldr, came up with a plan to get rid of him. He had an arrow made of mistletoe and brought it to Baldr’s blind brother Hodr. He gave it to him to throw at Baldr as all the gods pelted him with objects and weapons. Hodr threw the arrow and, since mistletoe had never promised not to harm him, it pierced his chest, killing him instantly... And so Baldr was delivered to the depths of the land of the dead, looked over by Hel.

specific design notes under the cut thank you for looking!

Mistletoe is a very interesting plant to me. It’s not a tree or vine or bush, but instead its an evergreen parasite. The sticky seeds attach themselves to the branches and grow into it with a haustorium, which is a structure that lets them sap nutrients from the host plant. Haustoria’s name is a reference to this structure. “of the Pale” is a reference to not only the color of the berries but the pale gray and white landscape of winter.

Mistletoe berries are heavily toxic but also exist in winter, when other plants may be barren and “dead.” Because of that and their parasitic nature I see them as a sweet little balance of life and death. In addition to that, I use the split colors of the face/mask of Haustoria to reference the goddess of the land of the dead, Hel, who is described as having a body that is half black as death, split down the middle.

The structure of the outfit is inspired by Scandinavian and specifically Norwegian folk dresses, since I’m borrowing old Norse history for more inspiration, it seemed fitting. I also felt the style would be good to accompany the botanical and berry designs attractively.

The twin peaked hood is to further split the design down the middle, with little charms to show life and death.

I included white beads all over the outfit to represent the mistletoe berries themselves so they could stand out.

The dark side of her face is adorned with thorns and has three mournful black tears leaking down from her eye, as well as a hollow half of the center heart.

The light side is blushed and lively with shiny eyes, leaves shaped like the mistletoe leaves, red petals like the mistletoe blooms, three white dots to be the mistletoe fruit, and the center heart is full.

Her cape is white on the inside to represent the white of the berries and also the white of snow.

To cap it off, I do believe mistletoe is fitting for a plague doctor as they are still used medicinally to this day. :)

Thank you for reading everything and looking at my design! I’m very proud of her and I hope she doesn’t stretch the theme. And definitely more than anything else I hope you enjoy looking at her!

one of the differences between plasticity!tori and mutagenicity!tori is that mutagenicity!tori comes off as having an extremely exaggerated sense of self-importance. plasticity!tori is like "oh god why are scary people talking to me" and mutagenicity!tori just assumes important people should want to talk to her, despite being some random orphan from a country no one considers important. and THAT is reason #236 people don't like her

I generally try not to be elitist in whatever fandoms I'm in, but I have to make an exception for the SCP Foundation, cause 95% of the complaints I hear about it are just signs that whoever said needs to read more SCPs instead of getting all their information from content farms

Most SCPs aren't a bajillion words long like SCP-6500, most SCPs aren't generic uncontainable Things Which Kill You or doomsday monsters that are gonna scratch their nose which causes all of Europe to burst into flames, and there are still plenty of horror SCPs out there, the site has just over the years expanded from horror/copypasta to New Weird

The SCP Foundation has plenty of good content, you just have to actually read it
