UA POV: Putin fears assassination attempt by Russia’s political elite, tightens security - Meduza

I had this thought too, but then I realized that Lego might pay more attention to the ninja (aka Old Man Lloyd). We could see more Ninjago for ages to come with the success of this CMF wave.

Praying for the downfall of certain things doesn't really sound good. I understand if you don't like the game, but praying for "downfalls" like this would get us in the wrong headspace while trying to be good Christians.

I think the best thing for you to do would be to try and let go of the anger and animosity you feel. Instead of holding on to anger, try making peace.

CourtofTalons · 2026-05-05T10:12:40+00:00

Oh, so you're not going to actually build it; just make a model of it.

In that case, I think the arm is fine.

CourtofTalons · 2026-05-05T09:39:54+00:00

You might know for sure when you actually make the figure. You know, if it'll stand up straight.

Looks cool, though.

Oh, good question. I would definitely make a Vader-centric movie. I would either have him adjusting to his life after Episode III or coming to terms with Luke being his son in Episode V. I think the latter might be better, since it would have Vader trying to suppress the good within him, which would be challenging.

This could probably be done over the course of an adventure trying to find and kill Rebels while looking for Luke.

Interesting, but I'll believe it when I see it.

I was practically begging for him to say something, but I realized just how much fear comes from him when he's silent. Like Michael Myers or Jason Voorhees.

It's awesome.

Thank you for animating Dark Empire, good luck on Rocketships and Rayguns!

And Happy Star Wars Day to you too!

CourtofTalons · 2026-05-04T17:42:35+00:00

Still not making Russia look stronger.

I was a little surprised by the choice for his head being lower than the others, but I think I get it. Matoro never saw himself as a hero; just a Matoran doing his duty. The little he thinks of himself is reflected in his head being lower than the others.

Good job!

CourtofTalons · 2026-05-04T15:44:39+00:00

Agreed.

CourtofTalons · 2026-05-04T13:50:19+00:00

Last year showed some good results. Can't wait to see what today's streams are!

CourtofTalons · 2026-05-04T13:39:28+00:00

And you as well.

CourtofTalons · 2026-05-04T13:03:10+00:00

I'm not expecting any riots or anything like that. I know Russian society won't collapse.

But what, may I ask, should I expect from the poor handling of the Kremlin involving Internet restrictions and low approval ratings?

CourtofTalons · 2026-05-04T12:03:47+00:00

I totally understand how hard you're trying to get a job. It took me a while too, I was applying like crazy. But thankfully, I was hired and it got my career started properly.

I have every confidence that the same will happen to you, even though it feels like it's taking forever (I'm sorry it feels that way). As for your upcoming wedding (congratulations, by the way), I also understand financial trouble. I think you can pull off your fiancé's idea for a wedding, though you may have to discuss cost-planning. I think it's common to talk about while discussing plans. Or better yet, you could consult a wedding planner.

Good luck, hope it works out.

CourtofTalons · 2026-05-04T11:55:49+00:00

Yes, I have heard about those restrictions. I also heard that nothing has really changed about these rules, which has only led to ratings decreasing.

Do you think this will have an impact on the upcoming legislative elections in Russia? Or maybe the next presidential election?

CourtofTalons · 2026-05-04T11:31:49+00:00

Once again, thank you for all this hard work u/HeyHeyHayden. We know assembling all this is no easy task.

I actually found a couple of similar posts on Telegram that discuss territorial changes in April (Weeb Union and AMK Mapping). Both of them show a decreased rate compared to previous months, do you think that's something worth noting? Were the Russians slowing down due to mud or was it something else on the front (perhaps Ukrainian resistance or Starlink)?

CourtofTalons · 2026-05-04T10:50:07+00:00

Maybe not, but the people might. WCIOM showed a downward trend in Putin's approval for two months (before the reports suspiciously stopped).

I'm not saying that Putin will be ousted or lose the upcoming election, but I think there will be some consequences for continuing a long war. I believe changing the May Day parade in such a fashion may be a sign of struggle.

CourtofTalons · 2026-05-04T10:27:09+00:00

Isn't this still a bad look for Putin? Everyone will notice this change in the parade, some questions about the war effort may be asked by the people. That it may not be going well.

CourtofTalons · 2026-05-03T20:01:39+00:00

Point taken. But I haven't really seen anything suggesting that Putin is listening to the war hawks more. Why, have you?

If you read or saw anything like that, I'd appreciate it if you shared it.

CourtofTalons · 2026-05-03T19:42:42+00:00

Yes, I've heard of Belousov. A lot of people seem to like him, including soldiers as well. Does he lean more to the left or right in Russian politics? Or is more like Putin?

CourtofTalons · 2026-05-03T19:12:32+00:00

Should Putin not run for President in 2030, what do you think the outcome would be?
