Odesa and Sumy were attacked by russians overnight. Houses and shopping centers were destroyed. Unfortunately, there are also injured people.
I'm SO tired! I need a weekend after this weekend. Spend half of the day driving. Drove through a crazy thunderstorm. Poor Gracie was so happy to see me when I got home that she wouldn't stop yapping for a good 20 minutes. She must've been horrified being by herself during a…

I seriously need to go to bed. Goodnight and sweet dreams to fellas who are also going to bed, and good morning and afternoon to fellas in different time zones. 💙💛
My kid called me from camp tonight and shared that someone told him that he doesn't look Ukrainian. To be fair, his Gaelic first name and French last name might not scream Ukraine, but that’s the point: Ukrainians don’t fit a single mold. Fun fact: he’s the spitting image of…

I've been thinking about the following story in the past few days because for me it's a perfect reflection of what Russia is and always has been. However, I was reluctant to translate it because I wasn't sure if it will resonate with my mostly Western audience. I've finally…

Today marks 11 years since the death of Ukraine’s defender, Volodymyr Oleksandrovych Mukha. He was the first soldier from my town to fall in the Russian-Ukrainian war. Our community constantly reminds people about our fallen heroes and the anniversaries of their deaths to honor…
The Shahed drone factory in Alabuga that seeks to employ young African women is the same one that employs 14 and 15-year-old Russian kids. x.com/natalkakyiv/st…
"Factory boss Timur Shagivaleev is open about his motivations for targeting women aged 18-22 and had said that drone assembly requires "feminine attention to detail." African men, in his view, are "too aggressive and dangerous" to control effectively."
I randomly stumbled upon some Russian health-related Telegram channel and now I can't stop laughing! Translation: “Have you ever seen a fat president? Putin does 20 pull-ups at 72, and Trump runs 10 kilometers every morning.”

A pregnant woman stands amid the ruins of her home, destroyed by a russian drone last night in Kyiv.
Question: Why are Russian children allowed to compete in the International Mathematical Olympiad in Australia while Russia is trying to kill as many Ukrainian children as it can? News from Mordor: “The Russian national team showed a perfect result at the 66th International…

So true! Translation 🔽 "How do you dare wish for us what we are already doing to you?" — a frequently expressed thought among Russians.
«Как вы смеете желать нам того, что мы с вами уже делаем?» — очень часто звучащая мысль россиян.
Thank you, Italy!
Italy canceled Valery Gergiev’s July 27 concert over his support for Putin and Russia’s war against Ukraine—his first planned return to a Western stage since the invasion.
I am asking for maximum activity on this thread ‼️UKRAINIAN REFUGEE YOUTH IN WARSAW: CHALLENGES, NEEDS AND FEARS‼️ I am a Ukrainian psychologist who moved to Poland in 2016. Since Aug22 I’ve been coordinating projects for young Ukrainians in Warsaw. Here’s my story.
Can you imagine bringing your kids to a subway station every night to keep them alive?
Kyiv subway, Ukrainians are going underground and will sleep there again. The russians are too inhumane. There are already about a hundred russia Shahed drones over our cities.
A metro station in Kyiv is filled with smoke after tonight’s massive drone & missile attack. It’s full of families sheltering from russian terrorism. These images of these crimes should be remembered & stored forever so no one forgets what russia is
