A fire in Russia with sixty-two dead - seemed rather avoidable. o.0 Things aren't precisely looking up in that part of the world.

Poor Russian... Looks like it's been a bad week in general.

Putin is a bloody idiot, worse - he doesn't have the excuse of mere idiocy for his Soviet-inspired rule. Painfully negligent on what matters.

Oy, I can't say it in the forums strong as it deserves.

How many years out of Sovietsk'i Soyuz, and this sort of thing still happens? And the Russian people elect Putin?

Every time I’ve gotten feedback that was hard to take it was usually hard to take because there was truth in it and I didn’t like that (or didn’t want to receive it). That’s not to say all harsh feedback is good or that we should be harsh for harshness’ sake, but learning to absorb truth without letting it break your inner core/break you is a lifelong skill that keeps your mind elastic and open to learning.
