Greetings from Kyiv,
where the holiday mood is in the air.
During the war?
Yes – especially during the war.
I’m having a warcoffee
and getting ready to write in my favourite magic bookstore.

First moments after Russian missile hit Dnipro city today :
‘it’s us they vjibalys’ in’ the man says on the video almost calmly. ‘Pyzda’ coming from the one who’s filming . And that’s two of the most used Ukrainian swearings these days

RIP. I think this is a guy who tried, in general, to encourage people to be more thoughtful and aware.

These horrific, unending nights are nearly too much to bear. We could never have endured them alone. Our strength comes solely from the shining light of your hearts, the warmth of your embrace, and the unwavering kindness in your eyes, dear Ukrainians and friends around the world.

Just a little reminder.

What complete and utter bullcrap. Do they realize it’s our lives, our state’s future, our next generation’s fate at stake? It’s not just Ukraine being picky about security.

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.
We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

It’s Russia who needs to be demilitarised , to make world a safer place. Because clearly, Russia can’t handle having an army without constantly attacking its neighbours for no reason. And so maybe Russia shouldn’t have one at all.
