More than 500 Subway restaurants in russia continue to operate and pay taxes to russia, advertising themselves through russian social networks and using Yandex services.

Boycott #Subway, show them that staying in russia will hurt them much more than leaving ever would.

"Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Moldova may be next. And it is certain if we do not withstand. We have heard recently that they have started talking about Finland, they have started talking about the independence of Uzbekistan, and so on. He [Putin] will not finish this until we collectively finish him." - President Zelenskyy

A historic petition has been launched, potentially leading to the deprivation of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán's voting rights in the Council of the European Union.

Article 7 allows for the suspension of certain rights, including voting rights in the Council, for a member state found in violation of the European Union's values, encompassing human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality, and the rule of law.

"Nav vienas patriotisma definīcijas. Nav viena pareizā veida, kā pierādīt savu Tēvzemes mīlestību. Bet man svarīgi šķiet ne tikai runāt par patriotismu, bet to parādīt darbos. Mēs nevaram saviem bērniem teorētiski iemācīt, ka jāmīl Latvija. Mīlestība viņiem ir jāparāda."

Oh my fucking god

I just had the sudden realisation that the way fedi does handles, @username@domain.tld, is pretty much almost exactly the same that "first name" and "last name" was handled in ye olden times

Then and there it often was X of Y, with X the name, and Y the city or place. "Last names" we have these days have this built in as an artefact; of, from, de, d', van, von, of the, etc.

So fedi has inadvertently recreated this trend

"Russia wants to destroy Europe: our way of life, our economies and democracies. Their war on European freedom may have started in #Ukraine, but it won’t stop there unless we give the Ukrainian military & people everything they need to stop them. Now."

Mr. putin, like that old deranged university professor, is putting world politicians to a test. The exam has just one question. 'Did you learn anything from the world wars of the XXth century?'

High-ranking officials seldom answer that with actions. They rarely even speak precisely about their stance.

But today we, the civilians, finally hear unambiguous voices warning of impending war. One from , another from the a week earlier.

When events like these happen, a spark of hope flickers within me. Maybe Europe will be prepared?.. Yet, each time, it quickly fades, leaving a trail of disappointment.

Went 3-2 in a league, the deck feels decent and my understanding of it is at least average if not above. Tomorrow I'm committed to analyse the replays of the games I played. I also went 2-3 with Esper Midrange in an Arena league, which is OK-ish, but whatever. Ramp feels like a very hard matchups when your opponents are playing well.

Went 3-0 in testing, feels really good.

I won't reveal which deck I'm practicing with for just yet, and I don't think it's a particularly good meta call, but if I dodge bad matchups, it could be a nice for me!

Didn't do much for the past couple of days because I was focusing on work, but I have watched some Andrea Mengucci content to get a grasp on the metagame.

There is still some time to come till the war in goes full swing, so, while regularly donating to , I figured I can have just a little bit of fun this year. Not real fun though. More like workout for brain. So my yearly thing this year is highly competitive, as opposed to the previous year, which was highly creative.

Last year I was doing to my best ability and made quite some cool content, but this year I want to apply deliberate practice to get actually good at . It'll surely not be free, but I'll try to my best to match my MTG expenses with donations to .

I'll be posting about my progress.
