Mstyslav Chernov, who won an Oscar for 20 Days in Mariupol, said while wearing a black memorial suit:

“I am grateful. But I will probably be the first director on this stage to say: I wish I had never made this film.

I wish I could exchange this for Russia never having attacked Ukraine, never having occupied our cities. I would give up all this recognition for Russia not killing tens of thousands of my fellow Ukrainians. I would give it up for them to release all the hostages — the soldiers who defended our land, and the civilians who are in their prisons”:

Meanwhile, a Russian “no to war” teacher, after receiving an Oscar for a film about how Russia prepares schoolchildren from an early age to go and kill Ukrainians:

Do they not feel sadness about what their work is based on? Doesn’t it make them wish that, instead of receiving all these awards — including an Oscar — it would have been better if what they filmed had never happened at all?

[snovyda]

This is the perfect illustration of what is wrong with this whole situation and broadly with the russian so-called "opposition". Russians turn everything for their self-serving puposes. Even the crimes they claim are bad - they are still happy to benefit from.

And the rest of the world is oh so happy to support them in this.

"We will survive this as well, and win. It's just that no one will ever REALLY understand what happened. They never did. "Where's your Duke Ellington? Where's your Frank Sinatra?" Not here. Lined up and shot. "Where's your grand historical multi-generational business?" Not here. They were never born. Had everything taken from them. Died of hunger. And the memory of what remained is being raided or further destroyed by russian bastards. "Where's your Gaudi? Where's the Ukrainian John Nash?" Burned down. From a russian bomb or arson. Not here. "Why can't you sort yourself out!" Who'll be doing the sorting? The people who, since 1991, had at most 3 years of a breather because the russian bastards were putting their fingers into every pie here and propping up reprobates? Yeah, let's see you try to build a state in such conditions. At least as strong as we did."

Fuck yeah I love Ukrainian language, 30 different word for being miserable

Went to visit family in the supposedly safe city in the west of Ukraine, now it’s 7 am on Saturday and I’m listening to explosions and a russian iranian drone flying somewhere above me

russia is a terrorist state

[aif0s-w]

Btw it is St Nicholas Day in Ukraine. All children are excited for this holiday cause they get presents

Instead, they got an air raid alert in every part of the country

[aif0s-w]

Explosions throughout the country, damaged critical infrastructure, railways, grocery warehouses, civilian homes

horrible night, even more horrible morning

shahed drones, ballistic missiles, then more drones, then more ballistics

no power, no heating with 6°C outside, black smoke on the horizon - just another wednesday when your neighboring country is russia

i wanted to write "psychopath" but figured "russia" is insulting and eloquent enough in itself

[suratan-zir]

I had about an hour of sleep tonight, yay.

May as well reblog this post instead of writing a new one every 2-4 weeks, because it goes the exact same way every time. Full night of drones and occasional missiles, then around 7 a.m. - ballistic missiles, which go unintercepted because we have no real way of intercepting ballistics.

This time, however, the russians used more expensive missiles on us (including over 10 cruise missiles) instead of just cheap drones. This may or may not have something to do with a large stock of shaheds recently destroyed in the UAFstrike in my russian-occupied hometown, Donetsk. But that connection is purely my speculation, the russians still used a lot of drones.

After all, maybe they used more missiles simply because they really want that HPP destroyed. Which isn't easy to do with a hydro plant of this size, but considering they try about twice a month…

At least two neighboring cities around us are in full blackout now. No power, no running water, no heating.

wizard prodigy Gale Dekarios, only a child but his mind excelling beyond his years in spellcasting. losing his front baby teeth and suddenly he can't even cast magic missile. his teacher laughs and says they have never dealt with this particular problem with a student, soothes him it is okay, but Gale is fuming. locked out of spells with verbal components for over a month, resenting the limits of his mortal body for the first time.

The way westerners view the language situation in Ukraine baffles me. No, Ukrainians aren't some magical bilingual nation, which is bilingual just because.

There is no difference between a Ukrainian not being able to speak Ukrainian and an Irish person not being able to speak Irish. Both are the result of imperialism and oppression.

But for some reason people are upset at the fact that English is dominant in Ireland, but dislike derussification (restoration of national identity after centuries of russian imperialism, oppression and genocide).

Why? Because while imperialism is evil, its definition is obviously "evil western europeans with boats". Also, how can Russia be evil when it has bears, snow, vodka and balalaikas?

Decolonisation is good, unless it's in Ukraine (or any other victim of russian terror, but people dislike Ukraine the most for some fucking reason)

[justacynicalromantic]

Russians have created an online catalog where you can choose a kidnapped Ukrainian child.

PS: yes, you read that right.

[snovyda]

This is child trafficking on the state level.

Russians don't feel the need to hide any of their crimes. They are very open about committing genocide. Because they know there will be zero consequence. Because they know the world is perfectly fine with these things.

[folklorespring]

Kidnapped children being described as "calm", "obedient" and "treats adults with respect" as if they are pets 🫠 Also most of these children were born before the occupation of Luhansk and had Ukrainian citizenship. The parents of some of them were killed by the occupation authorities, while others were simply given Russian documents to legalize their abduction.

[creidart]

I wonder, how many more grotesque evil stuff russians get to do before finally facing significant consequences? Entire Mariupol massacre wasn't enough. Torture chambers specifically for children in Kherson weren't enough. Bucha wasn't enough. What will?

[what-we-fight-for]

You know how everyone in USA is foaming over Epstein doing this essentially in secret having just come to light but Russia is doing it out in the open from the jump and precisely nobody fucking cares?

Very happy with the redraw of these two sketches! Fenris as a Ukrainian cossack and Merril the Bukovyna witch.

Now it's time to redraw Hawke and Isabela, and a new print bundle will be ready 👀

Finally figured out how to permanently disable google assistant on phone

[astronomicpopcorn]

You can't just post this and not tell us how man

[oldsgie-deactivated20260302]

Instead of being in settings its in the google app. Also, google, not chrome. Icon is a G, not the circle thing. Click on your pfp to open a menu

From there, go Settings > Gemini > Digital Assistants > Switch to Google Assistant. This disables Gemini, google's AI assistant, and switches you back to the old one. We aren't done yet.

Go back to Settings. From there, we go Settings > Google Assistant > scroll to find General > Google Assitant on/off > turn it off

They really tried their best to make it a pain, but you can eventually disable it. Holding the power button on your phone still pulls up a menu and asks you to turn it back on, but this is the least intrusive you can make it.

Applies to all non-apple phones afaik. For sure Samsungs and Pixels but idrk about others

Edit: thank you my friend @/teeth-kid for confirming that this also works on Motorola

[mashkara45]

russia breaks the ceasefire two hours after they agreed to stop strikes on Ukraine’s energy sector - by bombing the power system of Slovyansk, Donetsk region, half of the city is without electricity.

Another 2 hours later they bomb a hospital in Sumy. Then launched attack drones all over the country.

“Ceasefire” my ass

Fuck you and fuck your “peace talks”

You don’t want peace. You want us to die more quietly.

[suratan-zir]

famous russia's peacefulness is now being felt in about half of Ukraine. in the form of drones, as usual.

[anoonimthepoorchad]

Kropyvnitskyi city has been attacked by drones the whole evening/night to the point that our national railway had to create hours long delays to move around the city and the damages in the region. That's how bad it's been these days. That's what russia is doing while people are pressuring Ukraine into silence and submission.

[wintersmitth]

And some additional context: Ukrzaliznytsia never has delays. It just doesn't happen. So it must've been really bad that they had to have hours long delays.

[lexlurks-deactivated20260311]

atarted metroid dread a few days ago and ive had the most violent chell fixation for over a year you know what that means

coming up with chell post canon scenarios is really fun what if GLaDOS's deleted line about the timeskip being 50000 years is true and chell slept through the combine and now shes in metroid . anyways

these 2 are just shitposts idk

[that-is-who-you-are]

Could not agree more

STOP SUPPORTING rUSSIAN CULTURE, there's nothing exciting about it, they killed and tortured millions of people throughout their history, to present themselves as that "great" nation, of course the'll seem like that,when there's no one else left.

CULTURE IS POLITICS
