Bummer, dude! I hope it doesn't hit you too hard. I know you're vaxxed, which helps a lot. My boss went to Disneyland a couple of weeks ago and came back with it.
Yeah, I'm pretty much okay this afternoon. A very high antigen load on my lateral flow test (huge, bright purple stripe), but I suspect that just leftovers, and the virus is gone.
Yeah, Zelensky spent about three weeks boasting publicly of his upcoming Kherson Offensive. Astonishingly, the Russians were ready for them when they came, almost as though someone had tipped them off. I /suspect/ that's what's behind the recent purge of the two Secret Police chiefs. They *did* manage to blow up that one bridge, which Fox and the BBC lauded as a crippling blow at the Russian logistical train, although the United States Institute from the Study of War seems much less impressed with, citing Russia's massively redundant supply chains, and ranking this as an 'inconvenience'.

They're obviously fated to win one crushing victory after another, until the entire county is lost. Zelensky reminds me more and more of Hitler with each day that passes. I can readily imagine him in his bunker in Kiev, moving imaginary armies around on the map, and raging at his generals, while little drifts of plaster dust sift down from the ceiling as the Russian shells explode overhead.
