Ugh. I went over to the BBC to catch up on what’s going on in the Ukraine and ran across a video of those Cossacks whipping the Pussy Riot members in Sochi: bbc.co.uk

Some of you may remember that I posted a Page about the Cossacks around this time last year after seeing the following at the NY Times: The Cossacks Are Back. May the Hills Tremble.

Gah—Cossacks and whippings and brutal rulers killing their people, all before 10am. What century are we living in again?

Need. More. Coffee. BBL
