Over the summer, I discovered my most recent hyperfixation: The #americanwoodcock, or timberdoodle! I wanted a plush toy of one, but couldn’t find one, so I just… taught myself to needle felt and made one. Meet Tim B. Doodle!

I’ll post this here and everywhere I educate the world about Ukraine.
I’ve met truly fantastic people on BlueSky – caring, kind, and generous.
You are my light on the darkest days.
You support my work, like my posts no matter what I write, and remind me: come on, girl, you’re not alone.

All humans are weak.
We believe ourselves to be strong and brave, but in an instant this strength can turn into weakness.
Therefore, we don't need to be arrogant, selfish, or bad people because weakness can come to us at any time.

To all my supporters and supporters-to-be.
You help me show Ukraine to the world.
You inspire me to keep going, even when I’m exhausted.
You break the ice of indifference I so often see.
Thank you – I needed to say this today.

Is there a more lush beauty than the coral peony? Four thousand years of cultivation brought this perfect specimen to us.
I try to bring flowers into my life every day. They remind me that beauty and perfection are easily accessible, if you just stay open.

At the Kyiv railway station –
a sculpture Volya by Oleksii Sai
Made from the damaged letters of a welcome sign in Liubymivka, a frontline village in Kherson region, occupied in March 2022 and liberated that October.
Volya means both freedom and will – a word that perfectly captures 🇺🇦 spirit.
