i’ve heard a lot of stories about writers that i love but i think my favorite one is that the dragon age writers called the game world “thedas” because it was originally short for “the dragon age setting” and then they just didn’t change it

i think all ukrainians have dreams where they are trapped either in russia or under the occupation. my reoccurring one is that i am in crimea. i don't know why there. i've never been to crimea. but it always ends bad because i can't suppress being ukrainian

#i dreamed of my mother's home which is in russia and that i was trapped there #there was this other time when i dreamed that my family and I had to evacuate from a town near frontline #'cause we saw that the high-rises were folding like cards and it was fucking horrifying #i think pretty much everyone i know had nightmares about being in russia/in occupation and needing to get out #a collective trauma because of russia being йобані терористи 🚬

I wasn't very active here last month, so I want to share how people were injured in May by a Russian strike drone. It fell nearby and this experience, how the glass flies out of the door and how the room fills with smoke and dust and there is screaming in the street because there are wounded. And these are ordinary Russians, ordinary Russians launch drones, scout and direct them at people. For them, it is a way to spread fear and intimidate, kill and maim. And then pretend that nothing happened. I don't want to show any photos or videos because over the years you have all become so used to Ukrainians having to traumatize themselves twice: first experiencing it and then seeing and publishing photos from the scene. Just remember that the drone falls quickly. Today it is us, a training ground, and tomorrow someone else

RIP Marjane Satrapi, author of the amazing graphic novels Persepolis about living during the fundamentalist revolution in Iran in the 70’s and 80’s. She also created the animated movie based on the graphic novels, which is where these gifs come from.

Reblogging in honor of Marjane Satrapi, one of THE great graphic novelists. Her comic Persepolis was a crucial text for shaping my belief that comics can deeply explore identity, culture, politics, and history.

Aleksey Kopytko:

At approximately 11:30, the russians once again struck Kharkiv with a drone. They killed a woman, and another six people were injured.

The russians also struck a farm in Rakitne. They killed two people, and six more were injured.

They do this because they can. All delegations, including the European and American ones that arrived to participate in the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, are helping ensure that the russians can continue killing people in Ukraine.

Although things could be different.

1. Everyone has already discussed the strike on the oil terminal in St. Petersburg. Information about the damage will come later; preliminary reports suggest that the storage tanks themselves suffered less damage than the technological pipelines connecting them, and pipelines leading to the oil-loading terminal were likely hit. In other words, the fire may be extinguished quickly, but the facility's operations will be affected.

It is even interesting to see how the russians will explain the breakthrough of UAVs to St. Petersburg. Which NATO country will they accuse of assisting?

The psychological effect is enormous. It was encouraging that, unlike in moscow, there were virtually no cries of “what did we do to deserve this?!” Tomorrow we will summarize the public reaction.

2. An unquestionable military success was the strike on the corvette "Boykiy" in a dry dock in Kronstadt. By design, the base of any fleet is supposed to be a fortress. The base in St. Petersburg is a fortress within a fortress. In addition to ground-based air-defense elements, ships are expected to defend themselves. Moreover, they are supposed to protect not only themselves but also assigned facilities, including oil ports. There are sufficient personnel and technical resources there. The issue is readiness. Experience has shown that coastal defenses and shipboard watches were not prepared for self-defense.

I am more than certain that today every self-respecting navy in the world will be studying the footage of the strike on the russian corvette. This is the reality in which everyone suddenly finds themselves. Nine hundred and fifty kilometers in a straight line from the nearest launch point, through layered defenses.

A contradictory aspect: the corvette "Boykiy" repeatedly escorted russian tankers in the Baltic Sea and the English Channel. All the great naval powers were afraid to touch it. Now it has been reached by Ukrainian drones. The other side of this success is the question: why escalate tensions with the russian federation if Ukrainians are more or less managing on their own?

Because the russians are adapting and increasing their readiness. The objectives of the Leningrad Military District have not disappeared. Ukraine could reduce its potential many times over with adequate support. Apparently, Europeans would rather leave more of it intact for themselves so they can later demonstrate their own valor.

3. During the day, the list of facilities affected yesterday and today will grow.

The Progress plant in Michurinsk (Tambov region) was alarmed, but the actual extent of the damage remains unclear.

A clear positive development is the shutdown of the Zenzevatka pumping station (Volgograd region). Back in September 2025, I described a focused visit to this facility. It is all part of the effort to disrupt the flow of oil and petroleum products toward Novorossiysk and the refineries of Krasnodar Krai.

4. Crimea was not overlooked. For several consecutive days, the Ukrainian Defense Forces have been harvesting results in the area around the Saky airfield in Novofedorivka. The General Staff announced the destruction of a short-range radio navigation system (RSBN) 4N.

Quite right, too. The russians should come to terms with the fact that no air-defense system will help them in Crimea; they should leave.

If you were a mermaid, what animal form would your lower half take? Are you a slithery eel, a powerful shark, or maybe a colorful reef fish?

💔 Під час обстрілів навіть бобер побіг в укриття, а в Києві налякане вибухами оленятко загубило маму і заховалось під машину — довелось піднімати авто домкратом, аби дістати малюка.

‼️Вже відомо, що в Дніпрі дістали тіло 9–ї загиблої людини – це 3-річний хлопчик. Доля ще 6-ти людей лишається невідомою. У Києві кількість загиблих зросла до 5 людей.

During the shelling, even a beaver ran for cover, and in Kyiv, a baby deer, frightened by the explosions, lost its mother and hid under a car - the car had to be jacked up to get the baby out.

It is already known that the body of the 9th deceased person was recovered in Dnipro – it is a 3-year-old boy. The fate of 6 more people remains unknown. Upd: 12 people died, 2 of them children (source)

In Kyiv, the number of dead has increased to 6 people (update from the translator, source)

Sometimes I'll catch myself saying something like "yeah, we had only two ballistics flying over us that night, so I was able to catch enough sleep :)" and then think.... Why the fuck I'm not freaking out more about that. WHERE in the world it's normalized to integrate being genocided in a fucking war into your daily routine? And also you have to balance it with your work and social life?
