Well, insects are arthropods. I think they're fascinating creatures, and they are far from mindless biorobots, but... Yeah, it'd be a lot better than industrial farming of mammals and birds.

They believe that the good guys always win, and they also believe themselves to always be the good guys. Hence the mental gymnastics.

Not disagreeing, actually. I'd rather eat arthropods than mammals for a lot of reasons.

You're pretty much spot on.

Eating bugs: ewwww.

Eating wet bugs: finally, some good fucking food.

Thank you, I've almost retched at the idea.

The tea is absolutely the superior drink.

Don't be sorry, comrade! It's an interesting perspective, and I agree with you. We don't usually think of languages that way (well, at least I don't), but it's a valid and valuable approach.

I wouldn't call Ukrainian a dialect of Russian. They are somewhat mutually intelligible, the degree of this heavily depends on the regional variation of Ukrainian, the further west you go, the less it is. I think there's enough differences for it to be its own language.

It's quite beautiful, actually, and it's a shame that the sound of it makes me want to vomit nowadays.

I don't know what's going on, but I'm glad to hear a comrade feels better!

Good lord, just give up already. How many more people have to die?

We're physically well, but mentally exhausted. Both of us can't wait for this war to be over.

Puts my shitposting here in perspective

Sometimes it's easy to look at the world events and say "yeah, this is horrible, but in the end it'll lead us to the better world", and kinda forget about those swept up in these events. I do this too, because the only other option is a complete burnout.
