Okhmatdyt Children's Hospital in Kyiv, Ukraine after russian missile attack.

My mother's first home was a refugee camp. Her mother was sold on a Nazi slave market.

I have dead relatives on Ukrainian battlefields. We can't get them back because russia has colonised the regions.

One relative was taken hostage by the bastard russians and tortured for 2.5 years.

The word "slave" actually means "Slavic person". The word "genocide" was invented in Lviv.

An Amnesty International guy chased my mother through a shopping mall, yelling at her that she was a "stupid white woman who wouldn't know what a refugee is".

Ukrainians aren't allowed to talk about the racism we get every single fucking day because we're "too white".

Hellooo, here are all my Rise of the tmnt refs!!

Мені важко працювати без стимів . Зазвичай коли я працюю біля мене ця свічка . Завдяки запаху легше працювати . Чудовий спосіб стіму. Більше всього мені підходять свічки з різдвяними замахами вони найприємніші
