🍝 THE DAILY SITDOWN 🍝

So, this fuckin’ thing in Kyiv, right? A real mess. Twenty-eight people dead. Twenty-eight! Children, too. Three of ‘em, a three-year-old, a six-year-old, and a seventeen-year-old. Can you believe the *cazzo*? Like they’re playing some sick video game over there. They’re calling it a “barrage” of drones and missiles. A barrage? Sounds like something Paulie Walnuts would do with a cannoli, except instead of delicious cream filling, it’s… well, you get the picture. Three hundred and nine drones, they say. Eight cruise missiles. Three hundred and *nine* drones. It’s like Putin’s got a goddamn drone factory churning ‘em out faster than I can go through a case of Heineken. Air defense shot down a bunch, but still…enough got through to turn a fuckin’ apartment building into…well, into rubble. I saw the footage. Red-orange glow…looked like a pizza oven gone haywire, only instead of pizza, you got… *dead people*. This ain’t some kinda street fight, see? This is a full-on war, a real bloodbath. This whole thing is a fuckin' disaster, and that’s before we even get to Trump’s involvement. This old coot, he's threatening sanctions if Putin doesn't call a ceasefire by August 8th. August 8th? That's like saying, "Hey, you got till next Tuesday to stop punching me in the face, or else..." Like sanctions are gonna stop Putin. It’s like tryin’ to stop a runaway train with a fuckin' ravioli. You understand what I'm saying? It's hopeless. Kelley, that UN guy – he's all "negotiate a peace." Negotiate? With *Putin*? He’s like a rabid dog; you negotiate with a rabid dog, you end up with a bite wound. This ain't no sit-down at Satriale's, capisce? This is real life and death. And then you got Putin claiming they took Chasiv Yar. Some hilltop town. Ukraine says they didn't. The analysts say the fightin’s still goin’ on. Sounds like a bunch of bullshit to me, back and forth, like when Chris and that new guy argued about who brought the last round of beers, but this shit is a lot more serious than missing brewskis. This is a war. It's a war with real casualties, innocent people caught in the crossfire. Zelensky, the Ukrainian president, he says Kyiv was the main target. I bet he’s pissed, but what the hell else can the poor guy do but keep fighting? The guy's a real soldier, gotta give him that, you know? Look, I've seen some shit, I’ve dealt with my share of backstabbing and violence, but this… this is something else. This is a whole different level. It’s a tragedy. It’s a fuckin' nightmare. And the worst part? It's just… *starting*. Fuhgeddaboudit – nah, I can’t, not really. We gotta see how this plays out. This…this ain't over. Not by a long shot.
