As Testing Alot Of New Things , Kindve Happy How It Came Out , Still Things I Want To Try To Do Better

❗Russian occupiers shelled Kramatorsk, Donetsk region, hit a nine-story building, destroyed several apartments on the upper floors, said Pavlo Dyachenko, head of the communication department of the Donetsk region police.

Five wounded - three pensioners and two children - were admitted to the hospital, said Ihor Yeskov, the head of the communications department of the Kramatorsk City Military Administration.

‼️Yesterday evening, the Russians bombed the residential sector in Donetsk region. Nine aerial bombs were dropped on Kostyantynivka, one more on Kramatorsk.

In Kramatorsk, Russian invaders killed a 52-year-old man and injured 12 more people. 5 people were injured in Kostyantynivka.

As a result of the attack, 69 apartment buildings and 47 private buildings, infrastructure facilities, cars, etc. were damaged.

On this day, 10 years ago, russian occupation forces, namely the "Oplot" brigade, in an act of terrorism, fired a Grad missile at a Ukrainian checkpoint near Volnovakha when there was a passenger bus. Twelve Ukrainian civilians were killed, and 18 were injured. Russia never admitted guilt or paid for the crimes, the consequences and continuation of which we see today.

This story is more personal for me because I was on that same bus earlier that day, heading from Donetsk city to Volnovakha. If, for some reason, I’d decided to return that day, I could have been one of the victims.

I had to pass by the remnants of the bus a few days later, which was horrifying. Subconsciously, I was expecting this to happen again, only this time to the bus I was in. It didn’t, and I’m still here. Although drones flying above my roof remind me every day that it could be any of us, any time, as long as russia exists.

It wasn’t even the only terrorist act by Russia that felt too close to me. But I’ve talked about this before.

Anyhow, later they completely isolated the russian-controlled (annexed) part of the Donetsk oblast from the rest of Ukraine, banning public transport (like these buses) at first and then essentially banning even smaller private mini-buses, allowing only cars through the checkpoints (to profit from bribes). Then, when covid happened, they banned all civilian movement through the checkpoints, allowing it only with special passes that were impossible to get. So Ukrainians, born and raised in Ukraine, to travel from one Ukrainian (illegally occupied by Russia) city to another, would have to go through russia... if they could.

The world didn't care then - when they were killing us, separating families, isolating us, re-educating, forcing us to get russian citizenships, etc. Now, ten years later, they’re doing the same things on a much bigger scale. If Ukraine falls, they will move forward. They will never stop.

do not. fucking. dare to say to me shit like "oh, but not all russians are bad!"

you bitchasses with no brain have no fucking idea how much suffering russians have caused and are causing with no fucking pause to us, even right fucking now. you assholes with no fucking shame can't even imagine how much i do not care for that 0.11037% of russians who aren't pro-war. you little parasites should shut your fucking mouths and listen to real victims.

so fucking tired. go fuck yourself yall. bastards.

Honor, Maksym.

I think about every Ukrainian artist who could have lived a long and happy life and done wonderful things but was killed by russians.

I'm thinking about russian artists who are inherently fascists and state propagandists, and how in the West they are loved and praised.

Indifference to russian crimes, support for russian occupation culture, praising russian artists and justifying their silence about the war - all of this is having a terrible effect on Ukraine now and will have terrible consequences for everyone in the future.

Odesa after russian attack 💔

Ukrainians on occupied territories are about to be deported from their homes if they don't obtain russian passport. This is genocide.

The really infuriating thing is Putin and Netanyahu are running the EXACT SAME rhetorical playbooks Palestinian/Ukrainian isn't a real ethnicity This land is historically ours and belongs to us We need to invade to destroy terrorists within We're engaging in self-defence, they're the aggressors And yet there are an infuriating number of dumbasses who will condemn one but not the other

More examples of Ukrainian resilience, this time through art.

Art created by children while they were sheltering in subways during the beginning of the invasion in Kharkiv, still on display. (Yay for people being decent enough to not vandalize them for almost 3 years)
