Another beautiful day, another complication

First I was reading about the new film of The Master and Margarita, then I was reading about the death of Alexei Navalny. Manuscripts don't burn.

And it's sounding like murder direct: not secondhand by harsh conditions or neglect.

And they’d been trying the secondhand methods too, by the sound of it. Wonder if Putin decided those weren’t working fast enough, or if they were an (unsuccessful) attempt to obfuscate more direct methods by weakening him enough nobody’s be surprised by his death.

Or they were just cruelty for its own sake, is always the likeliest explanation I guess.

Trying to draw some satisfaction that he took longer for Putin to successfully assassinate than a few people who were working for Putin.
