The Week in Tweets and Memes

Hoo boy. This week was a doozy. It started off, as so many bad things do these days, with Russia. Wagner Group leader Yevgeny Prigozhin, one of the few men in Russia we’d actually prefer less than Putin to lead the country, decided he wanted to stage a mutiny, so he fabricated a story about an attack on his own mercenaries by the Russian army, then rolled quickly into the Southern District Military Command center in Rostov-on-Don, meeting no resistance from the local forces whatsoever.
