Today, Nov. 20, marks World Children’s Day — in Ukraine, it comes amid the ongoing impact of Russia’s full-scale war.

Children across the country continue to face displacement, loss, and daily threats from Russian attacks.

The sight of opposition politicians being arrested is becoming more and more common in America.
ICE just blatantly violated the law and arrested sitting Chicago Alderperson Jessie Fuentes while seeking to illegally arrest a patient in a hospital. Fuck these fascists.

The Ukrainian word for "independence" is "незалежність."

AFAICT,
"не-": "not"
"-за-": "behind" or "under"
"-леж-": "laying"
"-ність": making it a noun.

AFAICT, "незалежність" is to be proactively getting yourself from behind / under someone or something oppressive.

Citizens United was brilliant. It fundamentally changed who representatives represent, from citizens to well-funded interests, foreign and domestic. Pure malice and systems thinking in action.

“The pie will get bigger,” they said.
“And we’ll have the whole pie,” they didn’t say.

2. Get PR, funding, subsidies.
3. Choke. Manipulate. Extract.
