How did Russia's 3-day “special military operation” become 4 yrs+ of near-total war, and how did time symbols initiate, manage, and prolong it?

Already a modern #gohabsgo legend, if there were a Hall of Heart, @BGALLY17 would be first ballot.

[Alex @ivandemigoal]

It definitely hurts to see something like this. Hockey can be a ruthless business, and in a perfect world, he’d have played his entire career with the Habs.

UUK really doesn’t get enough flak for being one of the most destructive and craven organisations in the country. Must take a huge slice of the blame for the current crisis.

[Andy Hom @TheRealistHom]

As cynical as it gets, loads up and goes as high as he can even though the body is fully lined up for a clean hit. Dirty, just like Hall.

Canadiens playing hockey, Carolina something else entirely - even more cynical with the targeting than Buffalo. NHL has declined to protect star players all playoffs. Screw it, Xhekaj and Gallager in on fourth line and make sure some Canes feel it. #gohabsgo

Let’s give the Sabres their due, each time the @NHL refs went out of their way to give them a chance, they’ve made the most of it.

[Andrew Granato @agranato42]

A subset of researchers essentially hold the view that they deserve credit for work that appears in the world with their name on it, but cannot be held accountable for failures in that same work. That is untenable. You are responsible for what you place in the knowledge commons.

EXC: Inside the power struggle brewing at the University of Edinburgh.

The institution's supreme academic body has criticised managers for a "lack of transparency" over restructuring plans.

I mean, @nhl refs really doing all they can for Buffalo to keep them in this game

[Andy Hom @TheRealistHom]

He actually turns to avoid a full snow shower then gets roughed twice and gets a double minor for being roughed x2 I guess. @NHL officiating continues to set a … standard

[Matt Drake @DrakeMT]

How is this a power play for Buffalo? Absolutely ridiculous. Bolduc doesn't touch Lyon until he's shoved on to him by two Sabres players.

[Andy Hom @TheRealistHom]

The latest Russian Victory Day passed with some notable modifications to the March of the Immortal Regiment, the timings, and more.

If you wanted to read more on the ritual function of Victory Day in the ongoing SMO in Ukraine, this @GSQ_Journal can help: https://t.co/01lobfjzBz

[NEXTA @nexta_tv]

During his Victory Day speech, Putin once again linked World War II to the war against Ukraine

He claimed that participants in the “special military operation” are continuing the mission of the generation that defeated Nazism and are now “facing a force backed by the entire NATO bloc.”

At the same time, a large part of the speech focused on the memory of the Soviet people and the victims of World War II, with Putin calling May 9 “Russia’s most important holiday.”
