I believe there are other forums for that kind of thing.

Viagra + dodgy ticker = trouble. Don't recommend.
Go the safer option and strap a stick to your pencil with gaffer tape.

It would be difficult to get your condom over that setup - and the pencil might puncture it anyway.

The title is a bit misleading. Putin is haemorrhaging cash through key individuals who have been syphoning off money. It makes him look big but simultaneously, he's trying to get back control of the coffers.
As one commentator put it; for every key individual removed, it's one less individual in the war effort. Many critical industries have been taken over by the govt. because they were going bankrupt (corruption at the core) and simultaneously, seizing the assets of the Oligarch's who run them.

Lots of boom and threats of Lukoil being seized by host nations. Worth a watch. Collection of news headlines collated by the narrator.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy has moved to contain growing public outrage in Ukraine over a corruption scandal in the energy sector by firing two ministers who are accused of involvement in a large-scale bribery scheme.

(Reuters)
Nizhnekamsk and Orsk oil refinery hit.
Nizna wotsit refinery hasn't been until this strike and is 800km's inside Russia. Damage is not critical but expect more strikes.
Orsk has been shut down.
Meanwhile, Russia is borrowing off China and the interest rates + devaluating Rubel + low crude oil prices = long term financial woe.
China is not supporting Russia for free. Some say Russia may give up Manchuria to China as recompense.
Oil revenues down by £2.3bn.
Budget deficit 5.7tr Rubles (70bn US dollars).

Tuapse oil terminal on the Black sea got hit earlier in the week for the 2nd time and it's 'offline'.
The Black sea fleet then relocated to Novorossiysk (say that when your drunk), so Ukraine hit that port too:
It's a ball of fire:
