I’m having a warcoffee.
Almost finished it already.

This book is coming home with me -
Artistic Glory of Ukraine.
It’s about the people who shaped Ukrainian culture.

Ukraine was always here,
just carefully hidden by russia.
And what is russia without the Ukrainian past?
muscovy. Only muscovy.

Vasyl Sylvestrov,
Bosses, 1934

He was labelled an “enemy of the people” in the Soviet Union.
His name and work were meant to disappear.

I visited something meaningful today.
Will publish next week.

I keep showing that Ukraine is more than war.

War draws more attention than beauty or culture, sadly.

The first part of my trip to Poltava Oblast is already in the letter.
I believe that after the war, you’ll want to go there.

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

Trump's 3/27 executive order targets the Smithsonian for advancing "the view that race is not a biological reality but a social construct."

Trump argues that the exhibit's statement, below, is unscientific. He's wrong. As a biology professor and population geneticist, I agree with every word of it.
