Info-post
Okay, guys, i made this post because i'm honestly tired of the lack of information about Ukraine. The war isn't over and genocide of Ukrainians became normalized. Plus there are a lot of people who truly believe there's no more war because they rarely see any news! So here are a few sources you can share. Donations are optional LIVE MAPS: -Air Raid Alert Map (interactive map where you can see where air raid sirens are on, which cities are under attack, explosions etc) -DeepState map (also an interactive map with areas that were liberated or are currently occupied by russians; is updated every day) NEWS SOURCES: -GRUNT MEDIA (tweet in Ukrainian, but if you use twitter, you can always click a translation button) -United 24 Media (tweet in English!). Their official website is -> HERE -Bring Kids UA. They help locate and bring home children who were kidnapped by russians. Their official website -> HERE; their twitter -> HERE; useful links (including a petition) are HERE -Save Ukraine. Its a registered charitable organization established in 2014 that coordinates dozens of organizations, volunteers, individuals and legal entities to help those affected by war, with a special emphasis on children. Their websire -> HERE; their twitter -> HERE -TV Toronto -Kyiv Independent + their twitter -Ostap Yarysh. Covers US-Ukraine relations, tweets in ENG. His twitter -> HERE -Ukraine World. Multilingual media about Ukraine. Their website -> HERE. Their twitter -> HERE -Zarina Zabrisky. US journalist who reports from Ukraine. Tweets a lot about Kherson city, a city in the south of Ukraine that get shelled and attacked by russian drones DAILY. Recently released a film called "Human Safari" that shows you reality of the town. You can watch her film -> HERE. Her twitter is -> HERE Charities/volunteers who help AFU: -COME BACK ALIVE (a non-governmental organisation that helps strengthen Ukraine’s security and defence sector. Has been operational since 2014, when the war has started!) This organization is VERY TRANSPARENT! Their website is -> HERE. Their twitter -> HERE -Serhiy Prytula charity foundation. He also helps Armed Forces of Ukraine with trucks, drones etc. -Sternenko Foundation. Serhii Sternenko is a famous Ukrainian volunteer. He helps UA soldiers with FPV drones. Drones have been crucial weapons/helping tools in this war. They are useful not only for observing, repelling the attacks of the enemies, but also bringing food/water/medicine to wounded soldiers. His twitter -> HERE -Leleka Foundation. Medicine, tactical medicine! Lots of lives on the battlefiled are saved with the help of proper tourniquetes and equipment. This org provides it. Their twitter -> HERE -Wild Hornets. Drones-drones-drones. They make drones that are crucial for this war. Their twitter -> HERE -Project Konstantin. They deliver aid, vehicles, communications tools, and tactical equipment. Their twitter -> HERE -NAFO 69th Sniffling Brigade. They bring trucks for Ukrainian defenders. Those who read the news at least a little bit, are aware how important 4x4 trucks are. Especially for evacuation. Their twitter -> HERE -World Central Kitchen. International organization who provides meals in response to humanitarian, climate, and community crises. They work with locals and really there for those who are affected. A soon as territories in Ukraine were liberated, they were there to help. Unlike OSCE, the UN, Red Cross etc, WCK truly help people. They keep working in Ukraine despite the shelling. By the way, they work all over the world and helped people in Gaza too! Their twitter -> HERE THANK YOU to everyone who shares this! Please amplify Ukrainian voices, talk about Ukraine, support those who were affected by war... unfortunately it's closer than you think.

It's surreal, you know. To live at the time of the war. I'm sure those of you who has never faced a modern, full-scale invasion of the biggest European country will never comprehend the terrifying bizarreness of our existence.
Here I was walking the streets, just running some errands. Kharkiv is not as lively and crowded as it was up to the February '22, and it is now scarred and wounded. Everywhere you go there are remnants of the ruzzians' constant bombing.
Ruined civil buildings.
Eerie silhouettes of the unlit houses forsaken.
Bomb shelters or the directions on where to find the closest one.
Monuments for those who were murdered by ruzzians. Not putin. Not some selected few monsters wearing human skin. By thousands of ordinary ruzzians on and off our land.
And it's mental that when you walk these streets you are actually ready to die. You see the bright flashes lightening up the sky from time to time, though soundless, and you think calmly: "Oh, so we are under attack right now. Must be Iranian drones. Our heroes are taking them down, it seems. Hope I'm lucky to get to the metro before something falls on my head".
And you go on with your day. Under the sky cut with lightning-like slices meant to kill you for just existing. Breathing. Going outside to buy some cat food and see if the city is being decorated for the holidays.
For being Ukrainian.
I'm not sure that the western media covers these topics anymore.
"People are tired of you, you see".
"Just let them take whatever they want, we want to live the life we are used to, with ruzzians as our allies"
"It's only natural to become numb to your grief, it's been years"
"Every life taken is now statistic, not a separate human being".
"The gas prices rise, we'd rather sacrifice Ukraine to avoid that and shake putin's blooded hand"
"It's not our war. We might have taken all the nuclear and almost all conventional weaponry from Ukraine in exchange for the safety and protection guarantees, but who cares. Let's just pretend it never happened".
While the majority of the people were celebrating Christmas, we were under a massive attack. A very ruzzian congratulations. The best representation of their nature.
It's not the first time that happened. Every significant day of the year we know we will be bombed exceptionally persistent. I'm talking hundreds of missiles.
The more sacred the date, the better.
It's not the last time, either. Far from it.
These few days there is a glaringly obvious silence totally uncharacteristic for ruzzians at any ordinary day. And this is the worst.
Because we know what that means.
It means we are to not celebrate, but survive yet another New Year's Eve drowned in our blood.
It won't be on the front pages - our suffering is not merry and festive, not in the spirit of Christmas. No Jingle bells, just cries of pain and agony and loss. Too depressing. Too tiresome.
I just hope my family survives this year's end too. So I can post photos of Kharkiv as it wakes up in the spring.
And I wish you a happy New Year, celebrate it to the fullest for all of us - dead and alive. Listen to the original Ukrainian Carol of the Bells, hug your dearest and thank whoever or whatever you believe in for being blessed with a life of peace and quiet. Believe me - you are the lucky one.

Do you ever start writing something that you’re excited about and that seems like it’s turning out well and that you’re getting eager to share, and then you start typing it up or doing an edit pass and it’s just awful it’s awful its premise is fundamentally flawed and it’s out of character and the prose is clunky and the plot is badly paced and ludicrous and the whole thing is embarrassing, how could you have done this, how could you have sunk so much time into this, you can’t even look at it, how is this that shining thing you were so excited about, how could you even have considered finishing it let alone sharing it with anyone, you’re crying, your mother is crying, nuns are spontaneously exploding in the streets,

I've never actually done the JK story (I know, I know) but imagine for a sec...If there'ss one origin who is The Hero it's the Jedi Knight who saved the Galaxy by killing the Emperor. Except they didn't did they? They mildly inconvenienced him while most of him was back on Zakuul. So what is it like to be a fraud through no fault of your own? To have to fight the same guy again and again? To hope that this death is the last and he won't take everything you know and love again? For "There is no death, there is the Force?" to be given a sickening twist? How could you stay sane?
Maybe you couldn't.

Here is a link to donate to Okhmadyt children hospital, which had been heavily damaged by russian missile attack. They hit the part of the hospital where cancer patients were undergoing chemo therapy.
I can't stress enough how important this hospital is for healthcare of Ukrainian children. Please consider donating, even a small amount is greatly appreciated, and spreading the word.

Darth Revan: It's Pride Month, Malak. You know what that means. Darth Malak: Huh. What. Darth Malak: Do you want the Star Forge to make, like, gay warships? Darth Malak: What?
