Commentators I've seen blame the lack of defence on incompetent commanders that aren't reporting losses, lack of construction equipment for preparing fallback lines and lack of communication between units. There are apparently many cases of electronic warfare units jamming Ukrainian drones because they don't know what the drone unit is doing. In short: doesn't sound like a problem that can be solved by just adding more bodies.

Disclaimer: fog of war, I'm reporting on what people have said about what people have said, this may not be accurate (but what source is perfectly accurate in the middle of a war?).

"Huh, these tear-oh-nides the boss sent us to fight sure do look like devils from back home"

I wonder if the curse can tell if it's lab-grown. What about cultures though? Could you extract muscle tissue, feed it, cause the muscle to grow larger, and then feed it to a cat? And would that result in a partial curse trigger? Basically, just laying waste to some of mankind.

(or no nutrients!) affect intelligence.

Absolutely not ok to do that imho. The link between breakfast and learning outcomes in primary schools is extremely well-documented.

That study is borderline unethical.

3rd time's the charm! And also according to this map they didn't even have to split it with Russia this time.

Way to smear a whole bunch of people you've never met. It looks like that media budget was well spent on convincing people like you.

I truly wish Romania would do the same with Roma people here. The culture is still very racist towards them without any actual understanding of what Romanians did to cause this to happen in the first place.

Short version: slavery followed by mass murder during WW2 (not on the scale of the Jews, but still pretty bad) followed by forced assimilation of the style described above against the Sami.

I did the same. Anything can be a garden path sentence if your tired enough.

For players of strategy games, CAS suffices. No idea if militaries do it differently. Saying you're going to an automatic teller machine would be awkward to say as well.
