    Then there is this.. but take it with a very large grain of skepticism, I can only find one "reputable" news source and it's source as well as other all point to the same source. If true it could explain quite a few things.

    Russia’s Putin To Hand Over Keys To War While He Has Cancer Surgery: Report
    https://nu.federati.net/url/286166

    >New York (Knewz) — Vladimir Putin’s cancer surgery will force him to hand over power in the Ukraine war “for days,” a “Kremlin insider” told the Daily Mail.
    >
    >Putin will reportedly put hardline Security Council head and ex-FSB chief Nikolai Patrushev in power while he is dealing with surgery. Patrushev, 70, has played a big role in the Ukraine war thus far and convinced Putin that Kyiv is overrun by neo-Nazis, the Daily Mail reports.
    >
    >A year and a half ago, General SVR reported that Putin is suffering from abdominal cancer and Parkinson’s. The Daily Mail reports that Putin has put off the surgery and it won’t happen before the Victory Day commemoration of Russia’s World War II victory in Red Square on May 9.
    >
    >The surgery was originally scheduled for the second of April but has been pushed back, SVR reports.

    The EU Starts Its Own Twitter-Alternative, Mastodon
    https://gizmodo.com/the-eu-starts-its-own-twitter-alternative-mastodon-1848861387

    >If you’re among the throng of Twitter-die hards that are more than a bit bummed about a certain South African billionaire’s plans to buy out the social network, you might have flocked to its open-source alternative, Mastodon. As it turns out, the European Union is right there with you; the European Data Protection Supervisor (or EDPS) announced this week that it would publicly pilot its own Mastodon server, dubbed EU Voice, as a way for European institutions and agencies to talk to regular folks.
    >
    >And if Twitter’s not your thing (and honestly, who could blame you), the EDPS said that it’s also testing a YouTube alternative, EU Video, which is based on the open-source platform, PeerTube.

    snip

    >“With the pilot launch of EU Voice and EU Video, we aim to offer alternative social media platforms that prioritize individuals and their rights to privacy and data protection,” Wojciech Wiewiórowski, European Data Protection Supervisor noted in a statement.

    “There are no advertisements on the platforms; and there is no profiling of individuals that may use the platforms. These measures, amongst others, give individuals the choice on and control over how their personal data is used.”

    InSight Mars Lander Records Largest Marsquakes Yet

    >The magnitude 4.2 quake occurred in the Valles Marineris, a large canyon network on Mars about 5,280 miles from InSight. The event probably originated at greater depths within the planet than the magnitude 4.1 quake, the study authors said. But the magnitude 4.1 quake is not to be overlooked—it lasted for 94 minutes, the longest seismic event yet recorded on the Red Planet.
