💔 This Is What Chasiv Yar Looks Like Now.

sometimes i think about how i’ve effectively dug myself a grave with this blog. half my internet presence is about being queer and ukrainian, famously two things russia hates the most.

if trump proceeds with the “peaceful negotiations” that happen without ukraine even present, if he pushes to implement another leader in ukraine (meaning, of course, a pro-russian puppet) and makes my country a quote unquote neutral territory, it obviously means occupation. when there are bombs over my head, i’m at least an abstract target, i can rely on luck not to get hit. if russians come to power tho? i’m toast.

i wish i was exaggerating, but this is already happening to people in occupied parts of the country. those who had social media posts in ukrainian, about queer rights, etc. are being seeked out and threatened. my acquaintance was once on call with her friend on crimea, who had weird noises in the background. when questioned, she casually said that they were coming from russian police beating her neighbour for listening to ukrainian music.

i constantly hear from people who miraculously left the occupied territories how they had to delete everything from their phones, because russian soldiers would do random phone searches — both just on the street or when a person tries to leave the occupied city. it’s not uncommon that people get shot over it.

everything about “peaceful negotiations” and “compromises”, trading “land for a peace agreement” promises me a death sentence

Kyiv after another senseless russian attack

Still hot

Hope the weather is nice where you are!

❗In Zaporizhzhia, houses, an educational institution and infrastructure were damaged as a result of a nighttime Russian drone attack.

First season was fun

I mean, why wouldn't russia bomb Chornobyl NPP, after the literal ABSENCE of any reaction from the rest of the world to it destroying the Kakhovka Dam? They know there will be no reaction now, as well. They know the rest of the world is totally fine with it doing literally ANYTHING.

Why wouldn't russia escalate its violence?

This world is literally not worth the effort that it takes to live in it.

ik people say you shouldn't read news first thing in the morning or reach for your phone but this is how many times my city was shelled by russians in the last 24 hours (almost each paragraph is a separate case)

‼️Yesterday evening, the Russians bombed the residential sector in Donetsk region. Nine aerial bombs were dropped on Kostyantynivka, one more on Kramatorsk.

In Kramatorsk, Russian invaders killed a 52-year-old man and injured 12 more people. 5 people were injured in Kostyantynivka.

As a result of the attack, 69 apartment buildings and 47 private buildings, infrastructure facilities, cars, etc. were damaged.
