Hi there, I am not using this blog anymore, it does not really match my vibes, but I do not want to delete it, for now. You can check out my new blog @yulesbrl
I guess, you’ve already heard of what’s happening in Belarus. It’s awful and so heartbreaking.
Shortly about the situation: The results of the elections were rigged by the incumbent President Lukashenko, although in fact the majority of votes were cast for the candidate Tikhanovskaya. As a result, the people took to the streets to achieve fair elections or real results.
The police there is literally going crazy now: they beat, maim and kill people who came out to peaceful protest. Moreover, they use stun grenades, tear gas and rubber bullets.
Many people are arrested or repressed by the government. What is more, due to the government order, all Internet and cellular is going to be banned in Minsk and close territories.
Police uses ambulance as the “Trojan Horse” for getting closer to protestors and then arresting them or smth.
If you do not live in Belarus (like me), you can help by sharing this information and tags #ЖывеБеларусь #Belarus #Minsk with others or donating in fundraising sources like the one below. This is the fond, which is raising money to help repressed Belarus people.
I’ll add more links once I get to know more information about other organisations.
“there are sustainable ways to use animal products, leather is good resource, indigenous people hunting sustainably is not an environmental problem”
and “individuals should take some responsibility for the environment, veganism and plastic-free lifestyles should be heavily encouraged”
and “veganism/vegetarianism/plastic-free is not an accessible lifestyle for everyone”
and “large corporations and corruption are directly responsible for the climate crisis, and dismantling them and not having a fossil fuel based economy is the most important thing in saving the environment”
I am so proud of myself! I am working as a tour guide and I am casualy talking to random people. I am pushing myself everyday, being pleasant and trying not to be paranoid about people judging me.
And when I get of work I make myself some nutritious meal. And today when I looked into the mirror, I thought to myself: "hey, you don't look so bad!" Which is one of the nicest things I told myself in a long time.
