Did You Know – Soap Suds

I can remember my Grandmother asking me what temperature the water should be, hot or cold, to dissolve the leftover dish soap suds that were left in …

Did You Know – Soap Suds

He added that leaving leaves alone had many environmental benefits. “You let natural processes take their course, and you see that there are advantages not just in the areas of ecology and biodiversity but also with fewer weeds, and less need for water in the summer. When it rains, there is less runoff to the drains: it creates an entire process of improvements.” Source: Let fallen leaves lie, gardeners in Netherlands town urged | Environment | The Guardian

‘You get carried away’ Director of RT’s Russian service suspended and investigated after calling for Ukrainian children to be drowned and burned — Meduza

Russian state propaganda network RT has suspended Anton Krasovsky, the broadcasting director for its Russian-language service, after he called for Russian-speaking Ukrainian children who oppose Russia to be “drowned” and “burned” in one of his broadcasts. RT Editor-in-chief Margarita Simonyan reported the suspension on Telegram on October 24, calling Krasovsky’s comments “wild and disgusting.”

Perhaps Anton will explain what kind of temporary insanity caused [the comments] and why they came out of his mouth. It’s hard to believe that Krasovsky sincerely believed that children should be drowned. At this time, I’m suspending our partnership, since neither I nor the rest of the RT team can allow even the thought of someone who works with us sharing that kind of lunacy. I’m bewildered — what else can I say? To the children of Ukraine, as well as the children of the Donbas, and all other children: I want this all to end as soon as possible, and I want them to be able to live peacefully and study — in the language they consider to be their native one.

Anton Krasovsky called for children to be “drowned” on October 20 on his show Antonyms during an interview with writer Sergey Lukyanenko. During the conversation, Lukyanenko described how when he was a child in the 1980s, he went to Ukraine, where he heard children say that “Ukraine is occupied by Russkies.” He stressed that “these were absolutely Russian, Russian-speaking kids.” Krasovsky responded as follows:

Those children should have been straight-up drowned in the Tysyna, right where the duck swims (Editor’s note: This is reference to a Ukrainian folk song). Straight-up drowned, those children. Drowned! Right in the Tysyna. This isn’t your method; you’re cultured people, you fantasy writers. This is our method. As soon as they say, ‘The Russkies have occupied [Ukraine],’ throw them into a river with a violent, raging current.

Lukyanenko responded by saying that in ancient Rus, “branches were traditionally used” to punish people, to which Krasovsky said that the children could have been burned: “Just stuff them in a spruce house and burn it.”

After the episode was posted online, Krasovsky wrote on Telegram that he had had a “wonderful livestream with Sergey Lukyanenko,” though he later deleted the post.
