Saw a clip of Putin being bossy but gracious towards some bowed and terrified general or other. It was meant for publication so when he said (actually ordered), very coldly, that the general should seal off the ironworks in Mariupol that not even a fly could get out, I thought, yep, this guy is totally fucking nuts. He's swallowed the whole Stalin playbook and he likes how it tastes. I left religion some years ago but I've been praying recently, praying very hard, that this revolting little mutant gets his ass well and truly kicked.
