#russian coup

[poet-by-heart]

The 2020s news cycle is just a really long version of We didn’t start the fire

[monsterhospital]

its been a really exciting week for the person on tiktok who made a 2023 bingo board

Number one reason I love this hellsite

The destiel meme has transcended just being a meme and is simply a way of delievering news. I just saw three major current events trending and all of them had destiel as the first image

I love it here

[jiabeewrites]

so this is what i've gathered from the memes and tumblr posts:

(please do not take this as 100% accurate. it's probably only like 78% accurate)

TITANIC II:

a few billionaires + a 19 year old + one other person(?) went into a "submarine" that wasn't actually a submarine

it was controlled by a VIDEO GAME CONTROLLER

and they were supposed to explore the titanic

and the submarine thingie didn't actually work and they KNEW THAT before getting on

and it imploded

and they all died

the only person anyone has sympathy for is the 19 year old bc he didn't wanna go on but wanted to make his dad happy

also celine dion is trending lmao

and fanfic is being written for the submarine (im slightly concerned)

oh and the company who made the submarine is called oceangate

this link. that's it, that's the addition.

oh yeah and @hkayakh said that a documentary is being made about this???

RUSSIA:

there's a coup

and there's basically a civil war

and the person in charge of the coup said that he's trying to topple russia's military leaders

and ukraine just took back some of their land

also the troops stopped for coffee before fighting

important addition by @chimp-prolly-not-typing-hamlet: the rogue battalion that rebelled against Putin is a private paramilitary organization called Wagner’s Group which has been linked to far-right extremism and neo-nazism

GREECE:

the greek coast guard capsized a boat full of hundreds of migrants, killing 80 with over 500 people still counted as missing, and the eu won't even investigate (according to @socialist-microwave-laser, please go check this post for more info)

so yeah fuck capitalism actually

THE STOCK MARKET???:

logitech is NOT suing oceangate, that was a fake post

EXTRA SHIT:

andrew tate is being charged for rape and human trafficking

and apparently elon musk challenged mark zuckerberg to a jiu jitsu cage fight

and andrew tate offered to coach elon musk

the season finale of helluva boss came out!!! (s1e8)

the season finale of helluva boss is coming out only right now because of some legal issues that vivsiepop + spindlehorse had. i think it had something to do with working with kesha and her label

FNAF TRAILER JUST DROPPED

yeah the world just decided to speedrun history today

(pls tell me if there's anything to add to this in the replies!!!)

Still catching up on the news, but I think this is accurate…

[lilhawkeye3]

gotta be real, did not have “titantic kills people” and “another Russian coup” on my bingo card for this century…

[nerdia-a]

russia is a festering wound that only knows how to increase and kill

the international community - negligent apathetic scoundrels

but you already know all that

[reallyneedsalife]

can we stop speedrunning history on repeat, please

[thesoulofseverussnape]

Everyday i see Supernatural trending and i just think "what near world-ending shit are we going through today?"

[ohsalome]

Rule of thumb: everything russia accuses Ukraine of doing, they do themselves.

For example, during 2014-2022 they have been accusing Ukraine of invading itself.

[myrddin-wylt]

SO THE WAR’S GOING GREAT

part 1 here lol

[liberalsarecool]

Gov Abbott/GOP would welcome Russian tanks.

[munchablemusic]

Since apparently we’re speedrunning history this year I say we round out and end it with a stock market crash and reset the economy
