That takes guts. Good for him.
I felt that was necessary to say at least once amid all the grim comments about how welp he’s fuckin dead. I mean there’s truth to that but it shouldn’t be the sum total of our reaction to this.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

It does. It's such an abrupt about-face that I can see why everyone initially thought it was staged. It's like a gazelle turning round and headbutting a chasing lion or something. Maybe he just received a terminal diagnosis and thought 'fuck it'?
I was thinking rather of hyenas circling a lion, each one nipping at a heel, a tail, an ear, none quite confident enough yet to bum rush the fucker all at once... Except they're all just hamsters... Nasty, evil little fucking hamsters, ready to rip each other to shreds 🐹

Stay away from windows, comrade.
And poisonous frogs only found in the Amazon
And walk faster than anyone with an umbrella.
And Don't fly on any planes near Russia airspace.
Or drink tea.
Or touch door handles
Or get pranked by two separate women at the airport.
Or get dust blown in your face.
or open your mail
Don’t drink anything
Unfortunately, VX also works on your face
Apply directly to the forehead.
Or they can shoot you with a poison dart
Don't wear underpants
Oh they will just construct a building around him instead. Just to throw him out.
A very minecraft murder method, I like it.
That's one way to commit suicide, I guess.
"he shot himself 9 times in the back of the head, jumped out of a window, and ate toxic tree frog venom on the way down."
“…yeah major depression. Shame.”
Sometimes these things are also a trap. Someone will deliberately be positioned to make a public opposition stand, just to flush out anyone who would support them.
They mentioned that in the the at article as well, and also why it's not likely
"Honey, I'm going window shopping"
How did it go? Was he ... Put-in jail? (sorry)
Ignoring the joke, basically yes:

I'm not entirely certain (because Telegram is disrupted and it's harder to get information from Russia), but I think this bears some relation to RosKomNadzor f**ing with Telegram and mobile internet in general, recently also in the Moscow region (arguably because the sky is full of Ukrainian drones, but perhaps for additional reasons).
Two political principles applicable to Russia:
- don't take people's alcohol away from them, sober people will do rational things
- don't take Telegram, people depend on it and will be angry, possibly forgetting how to lie
I wish him a painless autodefenestration. I can't imagine it ending any other way. It takes courage to do something like that. I wonder what made him snap.
I wonder what made him snap.
Hitting the concrete ground at terminal velocity definitely makes you snap in half
Oof. Touché. lol
He's been put in psychiatric institution today, reportedly
Does it have Windows?
Nah, all of it runs on Linux
*Gets thrown off Arch
Defenestration incoming.
No, those are usually outgoing.
I stand(in front of a window)corrected.
The rats are fleeing. I've been hearing rumors about an internal power struggle and a possible silent coup. Putin is now extremely paranoid and this is bound to start backfiring. This is yet another little puzzle piece to this.

The sharks are smelling blood.
Supports a fascist regime enthusiastically for the better part of a decade, cries when the fascist regime discards him.

A Pro-Kremlin Blogger
The regime could collapse any minute now.
Is it again that this loyalist just wants the war to go better, not that they want the war not to have happened?
Ah... Following the MTG playbook, eh? Whelp, hope this guy doesn't have a lot of him-sized windows wherever he is.
