Just a fear tactic to try to regain control.
Had a feeling, but with how Putin has been acting lately I wouldn't put it past him to do something like that.

No NATO country would go to the aid of Finland anymore than they would Ukraine
Finland is and has always been part of Europe proper. Ukraine not so much.
The response to Putin invading Finland would be very different.

Really, I wouldn't either. I wouldn't be a bit surprised to see him ship a busload to the border with a camera crew and put them to work "fighting".

I’m admittedly not an expert on this so I could be wrong, but I don’t believe that would necessarily involve require NATO intervention. If say, Denmark decides to intervene on its own to fight with Finland I don’t think Russia attacking Danish troops would legally trigger Article V.
I'm no expert either, but you may be right about Russia attacking say Danish troops fighting in Finland. I think the question would arise if Russia decided to retaliate and attack Denmark or one of the other NATO countries in that country's territory.
You'd think that maybe NATO would have some language in their agreements about countries being in other alliances and getting into conflicts as a result of those other alliances. Who knows, but it would be logical to have this kind of stuff spelled out.

Ukraine - Russia agree on humanitarian corridors.
I assume this precludes any arms shipments to Ukraine through the corridors as well.

Russian Major General Andrei Sukhovetsky killed by Ukrainians in ‘major demotivator’ for invading army

A senior Russian army leader has been killed during fighting in Ukraine this week.
Andrei Sukhovetsky, the deputy commander of Russia’s 41st Combined Arms Army of the Central Military District, was reportedly killed on Wednesday.
Vladimir Putin confirmed that a general had been killed in a speech updating the Russian people on the progress of the conflict this afternoon, eight days into the deadly invasion.

Thoughts on this Ukranian writer shown in that link? It's a Wood for me.

That feels pretty big. Do we have any idea where he was in command in Ukraine?

I don’t think it clearly specifies, but judging by precedent, I think NATO’s standing interpretation of Article 5 is that a) it must be an attack upon the country, not just against belligerent troops aiding in overseas wars and b) the attack must be unprovoked. (I’m unsure though.)
Edit: Yep, Article 6 specifies that the territory protected includes Europe, North America, and Turkey. Interestingly, Hawaii is not covered.
Scratch the “unprovoked” part. I don’t think it matters. But I would suspect that keeping NATO members from getting entangled in wars that would draw the other members in is A-#1 priority for NATO meetings.

I heard he already has 372 confirmed kills using only his grandpas hunting rifle.

New reports in that he ran out of ammunition three days and has been sniping with a sling shot he carved out of the bones of dead Russian soldiers. When he ran out of pellets he started prying the teeth out of his victims to reload while muttering to himself: “Russian dentist: Go frick yourself”

Biden bs'ing about our commitment to helping them, NATO etc. We are watching the complete and total destruction in real time and Putin will not stop there.
Why aren't we doing MORE?!
