A glimpse into life in Kyiv.
Air raid alert.
I’m at the metro station,
waiting for the all clear to cross the bridge
(trains don’t cross the river during alerts, it’s dangerous).

I have books to read.
So I’m sitting and reading.

I’ve seen people say that often, that Russians have completely shittified everything so badly that the task of bringing it back to civilization level is overwhelming.

Truth, but terrifying part is, ICE don’t seem to care; they break locks, loot businesses & homes, smash windows, beat & shoot people who resist. There’s no one to stand between them & ordinary people. Nat Guards & police should (?) but they seem to help ICE.

Agree, of course. Once Russia is defeated who knows how much leverage they could lose.

bluenote1866.bsky.social @bluenote1866.bsky.social · 2h

Right! From everywhere they are occupying. It’s too late for some places that had to let them stay after collapse, but don’t have to make the same mistake twice. Konigsberg probably impossible as getting back the lost lands of Finland, but would be great.

Is this intensional sabotage?

bluenote1866.bsky.social @bluenote1866.bsky.social · 2h

Honestly such a waste of land & resources. Now heavily associated with Trump, for extra incentive.

bluenote1866.bsky.social @bluenote1866.bsky.social · 2h

Imho, the pampering Russians received after the collapse just fed into their Great Russian Soul superiority complex. They were welcomed too eagerly without being held to account for their crimes during occupation. This time around close the borders & deported them from occupied 🇬🇪 & 🇺🇦.

Agree that PP is going to try to spin this as a defeat, as always, & prob some of the media as well.

It’s a great fundraiser idea. All hands to the mast to keep public radio/ tv on the air.

I think Trump looked like he always does, like total fool. It would be so unbelievably satisfying if we could just walk away or kick him in the head, but we can’t. If Carney can get a reasonable CUSMA deal it will be worth it & that’s what matters.

I understand the frustration, but I agree, I thought Carney did well.

When Russia is crushed, pushed out of Ukraine & locked away to sort itself out, it will be like a soft rain starting to fall after years of drought. Russia is the origin of so much sickness and evil in the world, we don’t even realize the full extent of it.

I laughed so much that I tried to translate and explain this meme to you😅

In Ukrainian, the word “форма” means both uniform and form/shape. So when someone says “you are not in uniform” in Ukrainian, it can also sound like “you are not in form.”

Trump is vain, unfocused and unstable, so Carney is playing to that. It’s basically like being a hostage negotiator. The actual substance of the agreement isn’t decided yet, this is theatre to make Trump look good.
