I was born and raised in the village, so I like it. Farm life and Clarkson's jokes, super.

The Sisu is something i also wait to see, and i'm not too big fan of Finnish movies in general 😄

Same. Sisu seems interesting but so seemed Omerta too which was total crap.

Amazing opening of second season of LOST [slightly spoilerish of 1st]

Disgusting and obnoxious bs but i wouldn't be surprised if Sanna flies soon to receive golden globe or emmy, probably handed out by Sean Penn and Zelenskyi.

I know you like 'em chunky like Ms Ohisalo, however I couldn't help myself and skipped through episode #1 a little to get some Sanna news. Oh my, 30 seconds of my life that went down the drain. At the end, she was giving an interview whining about how all the cameras are on her 24/7 and I thought to myself:

You stupid wh*re! You're really complaining about media attention while giving an interview to a documentary crew you hired? While posting senseless stuff on social media as well?

As a big hooters fan since -78, Kulmuni was my fav out of them 😋

Yup, that is what i've been saying for past 4 years. I got no interest of watch that carbage since i had to live it but maybe it is good thing that they made this if her retardness and narcissism shines through so brightly even from such short episodes.

Imdb botratings are a joke for sure, doubt anybody disagrees with that. Wanna watch something good for change?

Dim the windows, darken the atmosphere, crank up the volume and grab a beer or few.

Beautiful 😍

Ok, last one was a bit sugary and overhyped by Kossu, but this one is not.

Probably a bit tough pill to swallow for most hedonistic mcdonalds moviefans, but IMO refreshing artpiece in slow, psychological horror genre, which is not for all. Best consumed with some booze, theaterlike environment and without watching trailers, like everything is nowadays anyway. Beautiful effective 100min dose of uneasiness.

For the rainy day library👍

So i can trust that this latest review is done straight up sober, not even sip of kossu, jäger or jack involved?

If you like Rambo-like movies i highly recommend Deadly Prey.

There is a lot more attention to detail here than in Stallone blockbusters 

 

Here they are looking for him, but he is well covered thanks to his training.

I don't know is it this fever i got going on or the fact that haven't drink any alcohol for about five weeks but feeling tired as f yet impossible to sleep so trying to entertain myself with random youtube videos. Can't really concentrate to anything either but this i found mezmerizing for some reason 🤣 

No, i don't know who they are and there is nothing interesting going on but for some reason it brings warmth and xmassy feeling to my heart. I also analyzed hierarchy of their group, they got bum/joker, submissive one who is everyone's friend and alpha hobo who is holding the strings being host and most wealthy.

If seeing non-decisive, blur-seeking, permanent neverneverland residents by choice of modern day starts to feel tiring, Reacher season 2 just came out 🙂🍿

Great interview, a little over 2 hours long: First 35-40 minutes Putin is giving a history lesson about Russia, which I found really interesting. With 30 minutes to go, Tucker then asks some questions about AI and wants to initiate a prisoner exchange , the last 10 minutes are about Ukraine once again.

I don't know about great but more interesting than i thought. Hopefully Tucker asks Biden, Johnson etc about those things that Putin suggested and wasn't willing to answer for them. Mentioned about this "holy alliance" already earlier and their capability to end war and after watching interview i fear they will do even more damage https://yle.fi/a/74-20072351

Overall Putin did lot of cherry picking pretending to be holier than thou and innocent one himself and Russia as nation but lot of it made sense too, as we already have talked lot of this is just west/nato/russia elite power struggle and we common people are just meaningless ants between rock and hard place taking the hits.

As dick as Putin is and wouldn't trust him, got to give it to him how well he articulates and don't wonder why russians swallow his propaganda. Despite western media has suggested that he suffers lots of things from cancer to mental illness he seems very clear headed especially comparing to US president talking to dead people.

Don't really like Tucker either but have been amused with "real reporters" and their minions complaining that Tucker will and did ask wrong things and prearranged questions while in the mean time it is ok for sleepy to read his answers from prompter. Long live "real reporters":

Of course, I am not the kind of person who can speak objectively enough on this topic, but my modest knowledge of history is enough to understand that this is not a "history lesson" but a bucket of shit with the addition of well-known facts to create credibility.

In my defense against the possible "you are also under the propaganda of Ukrainization" I can only say that I have read most of the literature on history in the Russian language and written by Russian historians.

But as a PR move for the Western audience, it works, because surely no one rushes to the library for history books after listening to the interview.

When he works for an internal audience, he is more restrained and looks more "masculine" (I don't know how to write it correctly in English) and, by the way, articulates little. Maybe they worked with him to create the effect of an "open" person.

In any case, this is the best PR move from Russia in recent times. While the Ukrainian authorities make quite a lot of mistakes in this matter.

I have to agree with most of the things @Livertool says here as well and the contrast in sharpness and intelligence to the clowns on the other side of the conflict is astounding. Be it Sleepy Joe, Mr Scholz, actor Selenskyyyi... Yes, most of the things he talked about, we talked about here for 2 years and basically confirms almost everything Prof Mearsheimer published.

The main giveaways for me are:

• Putin sees Ukraine as part of Russia. At least it's deeply connected to Russia, so the war of attrition won't stop.
• Once support for Ukraine halts, he's open for negotiations.
• Nato won't expand into Ukraine.
• Still willing to send gas.

I'm looking out for Prof Mearsheimer reacting to the interview and giving his opinion.

I read Tarle a lot. Although he did not write much about the topics raised in the "history lesson", in his books he distinguishes between Ukrainians and Russians, whose languages and cultures are quite close, but still develop in parallel, and not one follows from the other.

Igor Danylevsky - Ancient Rus'. He is considered a rather good expert of these times. It very clearly divides Poles, Lithuanians, Russians, Ukrainians and Belarusians, although it says that the last two peoples have always lived between two forces, so they were under constant pressure and their identity may seem contrived.

I also read a lot of Petro Tolochko, I consider him a Soviet historian, but he is still Ukrainian, so maybe he was also paid by Poles and Austrians). The view on the history of Kyivan Rus is similar to that of Danylevskyi.

Oleksiy Shakhmatov is a Russian linguist and historian. I read (partially and abbreviated) at the university. He is considered one of the best specialists (both in Ukraine and in Russia) in linguistics. It quite clearly separates three languages (Ukrainian, Belarusian, Russian), which arose almost simultaneously from the Proto-Slavic language and each developed in parallel (of course mixing with the languages of its neighbors, especially the Slavic group).

I do not understand your attack. I only wrote that today Russian PR is better than Ukrainian, but I did not say that Ukrainian PR or propaganda does not exist)

Most likely not and not going to arque about Rus/Ukr history with anyone. Don't even care if all the things that Putin said was total bs propaganda. What i do care is our own western propaganda fed to people so they can't vote based on what is really going on. And that is suppose to be democracy???

This clip is very good example of it: (one at bottom)

 

Here is the whole Stoltendonks speech so you don't have wonder if it is fake, same statement starting at 13:24

I understand democracy (in the information field) as the opportunity for anyone to express himself and the opportunity to receive information from any source. If everyone follows the propaganda, it's not a problem of democracy, it's a problem of stupid people)

Shouldn't mainstream media/goverments produce none bias news in nutshell for those that has other things to do than fact check everything themselves if they even capable of doing it, like most of elderly people? That is how they got "approval" of finnish voters to join NATO too "this has nothing to do with NATO, all about Putin wanting to conquer Europe"
