Down, Boy

Russians are entertaining themselves by traumatizing our people, including kids

A grieving mother saying goodbye to her daughter Zlata (4 y.o), who died from injuries following the Russian missile attack on Odesa. The parents asked everyone to be dressed in white because Zlata was an angel… RIP, dear angel

Georgians are stronger than me, because if protests in my country were constantly confused with the state in USA, I would throw hands

so so fucked up how Ukrainians in online spaces are like "I don't want to see anything or anyone ruzzian on my dash ever again, no matter their views" and some foreigners go "oh, you're so racist for this, you can't bring tumblr blogs into this" or "it's just pictures of moscow why are you blocking them for this jesus" or smth like that, and it's like. fellas is it "overreacting" when people don't want to see or hear anything related to a nation who oppressed them for centuries including at least two genocides with one of them going on right now, is it "overreacting" when people want to see literally any other country except the one that is killing Ukrainians every goddamn day. bro imagine living in a country that's not being invaded and arguing with someone who's currently sitting in a bombshelter hiding from ruzzian rockets second time this week about how they shouldn't bring posts about dostoyevsky into this.

"Нам не знати, коли закінчиться ця війна. Однак я знаю, що робитиму у день перемоги.

Я вийду на широку дорогу, яка пролягає між полями. Високе небо. Дивовижний краєвид переді мною. Мине ще тиждень-два - і зміниться сезон, ховаючи шрами війни.

Моє тіло калататиме. Холодний вітер битиме в обличчя. Десь у грудях зароджуватиметься гарчання, хрипіння, що переростатиме в крик.

Внутрішня пружина, що лишалася зажатою весь цей час, вистрілить.

Не знаю, скільки це триватиме. Мить, десятки хвилин. Не знаю, скільки в мені буде крику за всіма полеглими, закатованими, вбитими, викраденими, знищеними, зґвалтованими, покаліченими, зруйнованими, зниклими безвісти, непохованими.

Я кричатиму болем. Кричатиму до болю. І з кожною миттю я вичавлюватиму з себе той уламок снаряда, що застряг у стіні в домі моїх батьків.

Бо він не може визначати все"

Babyn Yar, 82 years past.

Last year, I walked there a lot - and couldn't help but cry, every time. You always knew the Holocaust happened, and what it happened to Ukraine as well, but there, in the memorial park, you see the photos, read the text describing it, you see these ravines, you walk along the graves/monuments of the Jewish cemetery, you listen to the prayers and memorial songs... Can you not cry?

And then there's the rocket attack on Babyn Yar last year. And there's the occupation, execution of civilians, mobile crematoriums. The theater, inscription "KIDS". "Filtration camps". Deportation of children. Blowing up the prisoners' barrack. The damn. The market. The train station... No, I couldn't.

82 years later, and the only thing that changed is the language of the invaders.

hi friends

as we boycott in support of palestine, here is a little reminder of the companies that specifically supported israel in their crimes against palestine (taken from the al jazeera website)

do as much as you are able to during the boycott, but if you need essentials or need to go to work to support yourself, that is okay! anything helps and boycotting these companies specifically is great because of their direct role in the violence against people in gaza
