A better world?
There is this certain idiom here: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/better_place 😏
Is that it? Well, maybe "we're so fucked" isn't so bad after all 😅

This is probably a five year or so old tradition of state-owned outlets in Russia — to downplay disasters happening domestically and exaggerating when it happened abroad. When it's in Great Britain for example, it's fire even if that was put out in 15 minutes, but when it's in Russia it's "smoke suddenly breaking out" even if half of some village is gone with it 😅
Nothing less could be expected when it's something war-related.
@sparge Gosh! Your cats are so lovely! 😻
This is Hudson.
We went out of town recently and some friends came by each day for cat care. We wanted to make sure that no one shooed the boys off of their favorite kitchen counter, so we left a note.
(Honestly, we left way too many notes. But I can't help it. I get so anxious about leaving them!)

I don't know why they don't utilize the same approach to stop the war, to me the whole chain of command looks so corrupt that you could buy them whole for much less than gets spent on military equipment for Ukraine 🤔
@bigtuffal
What exactly? 🤔

Either it's a joke or his wording is horrible — I find it hard to believe that if you ask him frankly: "Would you rather spend these five hours glued to the screens of your phones",— he would respond with: "Yeah, sure!"
Either that or I'm still not disappointed in humanity enough 😂
@czerv
Indeed! 🐌
🇬🇧 🇷🇺 The United Kingdom is offering British passports to Russian officials in exchange for intelligence information, the British newspaper i reported Friday, citing three anonymous U.K. intelligence sources and one former Russian informant.
@rvps2001
Hmmm… Maybe it's still worth getting a job in Russia first before moving abroad 🤭

Один там «сильный лидер» тоже увлекался мусульманским социализмом, сделал законы шариата основой правовой системы… А потом обнаружил себя нацепленным на палку 🤭

Don't worry it was a humorous and a bit silly attempt to play on the word "urban".
Urban music is a rather vague term, it's not limited to hip-hop and includes other genres, what was called R&B in the 2000s among them. I think it was a misnomer though, R&B proper is e.g. Aretha Franklin and the correct term is neo soul.
So Craig David fits perfectly, he's cool! And I didn't know it was Artful Dodger who brought him to fame, but I have found out now, reading his Wikipedia page 😲

Just in case: DMs/PMs simply don't exist on this instance as concept — don't use them, use the other instance if you absolutely have to, or send an email to any address at m0xEE.Net or .Com or .Org, but I prefer keep most communication public.
