Bring out your dead A joint investigation by Meduza and Mediazona reveals the true number of Russian soldiers killed so far in the invasion of Ukraine — Meduza

Roughly 47,000. That is how many Russian soldiers have died so far in the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, according to a joint study by journalists at Meduza and Mediazona and Tubingen University statistician Dmitry Kobak. Analyzing existing reports about published obituaries, mortality data from the Federal State Statistics Service, and extensive records from the National Probate Registry, we estimate that between 40,000 and 55,000 Russian men under the age of 50 died fighting in Ukraine by May 27, 2023. When factoring in the number of men wounded so seriously that they did not return to military service, Russia’s total casualty count rises to at least 125,000 soldiers, based on our calculations.

…Records later indicated that actually some 2,468,665 rifles and carbines were received by the Occupation forces and later disposed of. The Japanese reported more artillery ammunition than small arms ammunition. Ammunition for the grenade launcher, often known as the “knee mortar,” was also more plentiful; some 51,000,000 rounds were reported, or an average of 1,794 rounds for each weapon… Approximately seven million armed men, including those in the outlying theaters, had  laid down their weapons. In the accomplishment of the extraordinarily difficult and dangerous surrender of Japan, unique in the annals of history, not a shot was necessary, not even a drop of Allied blood was shed…

Läsa böcker gör jag gärna, Men allt som oftast räcker inte tiden till för att hålla igång hjärnan med någon spännande bok, Denna semester har jag dock tagit mig tiden för att koppla av från det mesta och försöker lära mig göra det jag behöver!

Monday Notes: Family as Performative Action

K E Garland

I’m not interested in posing for pictures, pretending to be well, while emotions fire inside.

I’m not interested in spreading a smile wide across my face as I eviscerate deep-seated pain.

I’m not interested in keeping company with those whose life’s work is to worship Jesus, while spewing hate about others in private and praise in public.

I’m not interested in the performance of family.

I want to experience a mother whose instincts haven’t been muted by her own unmet needs, whose unconditional love isn’t predicated on codependency and control.

I want to feel the emotional security of a father, who uses words to express the intentions of his heart and the desires of his lineage, not the projection of patriarchy learned and perpetuated.

I want siblings secure enough in their attachment style to meet me through our bond of partiality, halfway toward middle ground and safety.

For when I…

Greek Study Notes, Page 3

Context, Thought, and Learning: ShiraDest Offers Project Do Better

     I always color code my verbs by tenses, past, present, and future (learning Greek language tips…), and at first, I was also writing a sentence with each set of conjugated verbs, but that was way too much to post on the wall.  The different color for each tense helps set it in the mind, and sets them off against each other logically as the time periods move forward, or would, if the writing was not too small to actually read from across the room.

From Behind the Pen

Predators are out there everywhere. While I don’t use online dating apps because I don’t have the desire to, I won’t criticize those who do. What I will say is, “Buyer Beware.” Recently and sadly, I’ve heard of so many increased online dating connections that have been fatal attractions. I understand that many people have success stories from online dating connections, others tell horror stories about their dating experiences, and sadly some do not live to tell their stories at all.

Last week, the bodies of some young women who were reported missing were found. In a few of those cases, it is suspected that the victims were targeted by sexual predators who probably passed a background check on certain dating apps but conducted their sordid pleasures at the expense of their victims’ lives. A report from our area uncovered the body of a missing teen who used a dating…
