Last night I couldn’t sleep again.
Not because of sirens - I’m used to that.
Because I still remember that night.
The one when I ran under missile fire and Thought I’d never see the sunrise again.

I finally wrote about it -
What really happened that night:

What does a dream sound like
When it’s born in the ruins of War?
When a girl from Donbas
Turns her silence into a song?

I recorded mine.
Soft. Shaking. True.
In English and Ukrainian.
Every word - felt.

It’s called “I Still Dream.”

❗️Storm the positions at any cost: this is the order the russians have received now, – Zelenskyy after meeting with Malyuk.

Interestingly, the President approved new SBU operations that will reduce the russian military potential 👀

🔥🔥Meanwhile Novosibirsk is
Beautifully burning right now
At a factory making microchips and military electronics.

Guess their “connection with reality” finally short-circuited🔥

😁😁In Simferopol, gas stations ran out of fuel — but not of imagination.

Instead of showing zeros next to the missing gasoline brands, they now proudly write “on the way.”

Ah yes, the fuel isn’t gone — it’s just spiritually commuting.

🥺 He met his son for the first time.
A baby born during the September 7 attack — while his parents burned under russian fire.

The mother, Tetyana, fought for two weeks but didn’t make it.
The father, Vadym, is still fighting — with 85% burns.

Sometimes my evenings look like this:
Calm, cozy, and quiet.
Just me, my cat curled up beside me
And music softly filling the room.

For a moment, it feels like peace -
Like the world has stopped shaking.
No sirens, no news, no fear.
Just warmth, silence
And the illusion that life is still normal

🔥🔥Ukrainian RK-360 “Long Neptune.”
Six meters of pure beauty.
Flies a thousand kilometers.
Hits everything it aims at — land, sea, moving, hiding.
Elegant. Precise. Ours.

⚡️One of russia’s main supply routes from China has just been cut off.

From today — a complete stop at the Kazakhstan border.
Over 5,000 trucks stuck. Everything checked. Some goods confiscated.

No more Mavics.
No more EW toys.
No more batteries for their “unstoppable army”

Every night, every boom,
Every echo of fear.
And no matter how long it’s been -
This can never be okay.

Dear world,
The night just began
And explosions won’t stop.
Years have passed,
And I still can’t call it normal.

You don’t “get used”
To the sound of war -
You just learn not to scream every time.
But inside, it still burns.
