Boo-fragging-hoo, cry me a river.
Good.2. reportedly, they're not treated well at home by anyone; expecting to be treated as heroes for putting their life on the line for their country, civilians apparently mistreat them, one even throwing a beer bottle at a soldier despite the consequences of going against Russian nationalism.
I question how you can call the use of weapons against military targets 'indiscriminate'.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death
The Prig has a resurfaced in Africa, making a video saying he is going to make russia great in Africa again, and promising to bring them freedom - by committing atrocities to help prop up corrupt dictators repressing the population. So just like being back home in russia for him.

Another sign of how desperate russia is for new bodies - they have been targeting Kazakhstan with army recruitment ads, offering a $5300 sign up bonus and salary of at least $2000 a month, plus bonuses. Its a lot of money for such a poor region but we know russia is about as likely to pay its bills as Musk or Trump. Plus it is illegal in Kazakhstan to serve in a foreign army.
Given that not long ago their propagandists were threatening to de-nazify Kazakhstan next, I'm not sure now begging for their help is going to work that well.

Putin: We need to go into Kazakhstan due to Al Qaeda or ISIS (since Prig used them as the excuse for Wagner being in Africa)
Kazakhstan: It would be a shame if we invoked the treaty with China that stated if you attacked us they'd come to our defense.
Xi: Make Vladivostok Haishenwei Again.
Given how China's economy is heading towards a bad place, they might need a distraction, and given pootie has nothing left to defend with, its a tempting target.
With regards to the Tu-22 that got crispified the other day, reportedly it was done by a locally launched quadcopter, not a long range one sent from Ukraine. And not only was that one destroyed but 2 more were damaged there and a further 2 planes damaged at a different airfield near to Moscow. All by partisans working with Ukrainian intel.
Imagine if the USAF allowed one of its B1s to be taken out by a drone launched nearby to the airfield they were stationed at.
