My Stories: 

Until Death Taps You on the Shoulder

Our book Until Death Taps You on the Shoulder book is out now! Despite this book being written in the magic realism genre it contains a lot of my and my sister's experience during this war, something we saw  with our own eyes, some events we took part in. At first it felt like a need to speak about it with the world and then it turned into a story.

by the way please share this post because i’d really like some people to reconsider using communist symbols and labels, especially the hammer and sickle / soviet flag, because i have seen lots of things like this:

and there’s several posts here about not using imperial japan flag or nazi imagery because of the mass crimes these symbols are associated with, but none about the flag under which my country and my family, and many others, have suffered.

i know tumblr is very american-centered, and not many people here care about the history of countries that are not the united states or white western europe, but seeing the above imagery can really hurt some people.

if you are a young person who just decided that communism was synonymous with “perfect justice utopia”, please reconsider because it wasn’t exactly like that for people whose lives were actually directly/undirectly altered for the worse because of your “harmless intellectual ideology”. please ask yourself why you use symbols and flags under which literal ethnic cleansings and discriminatory crimes were commited, under which disabled people (or “invalids”, how we were called in my country) have suffered. the working class was outwardly praised but secretly starved to death. women were used behind false statements of equality.

you’re a little bitch if you think pretending to be one of the people that fucked up my country and family is “badass” or “edgy”, and if you hope “communism will win”.

Btw, I really don’t understand where western communists got the idea of equal rights for women and LGBTQ+ folks in soviet union… Like damn, post-soviet countries have a great misogyny, homophobia and transphobia problem, AND THIS IS COMING FROM AN AFAB QUEER FROM A POST-SOVIET COUNTRY

I’m sorry, I’m tired of hearing “oh, your country is so bad, you haven’t legalized gay marriage, you are so homophobic and misogynistic, why should we help you protect yourself!!1!1!”, and then those same people praising soviet union as a paradise. Where tf do you think all of those problems, that are, mind you, especially common in post-soviet/socialist countries, came from? Don’t you see a pattern here? Why the western, so-bad-capitalist part of Europe legalized gay marriage, has low levels of misogyny and has laws that protect minorities, and post-soviet countries are struggling with that? Maybe because homophobic laws of soviet union that literally jailed or put openly non-cishet people in mental institutions? Maybe because of misogynistic mindset that was extremely common in soviet union? No, women were not treated as equal, they were treated as cheap workers who you can pay less and not give a good education because they will become mothers and wives nonetheless :) No, queer folks were not treated as equal, they were treated as mentally ill sub-humans.

Bonus point: people from soviet countries struggled just to preserve their national identity. There can’t be any mass riots for gay rights, if you are jailed and/or killed for creating art in your native language, researching the history of your land, that soviets tried to hide, and speaking about their crimes. And I’m not talking about only about 20s or 30s here. This thing was relevant in the 60s, 70s, 80s and all the way till the collapse of soviet union. Post-soviet countries are independent for a bit more that 30 years, and we are fucking trying, okay? I will be speaking about Ukraine right now, but the situation with misogyny and homophobia here is already better than it was in 2014, for example. There are new laws that defend women (Istanbul Convention), and activists are currently trying to push government to accept civil partnerships, so gay couples could have at least part of the rights that married hetero couples have (we can’t legalize gay marriage right now because for that you need to change the constitution, and it is prohibited during the war).

Such 'crescents' earrings are very popular in Ukrainian culture and were an attribute of many Ukrainian Cossacks.

omg what skin blends do you use for sherlock and roland they're gorgeous??

Sherlock and... ROLAND? What an interesting choice. I haven't post Roland for MONTHS! Thanks for reminding me of having this pretty doll I suffered for :D

Ladies and gentlemen and everyone in between, Sherlock an Roland were summoned! :D

Sherlock wears skin by TERFEARRENCE from Boys Collection. I didn't change anything on this skin, just added some skin details.

Roland though... I made his skin using THISISTHEM skin as base. I painted his face manually on it for my personal use only. But his body is still made by THISISTHEM and it's the skin I believe called David?

I can't recommend you THISISTHEM as a skin creator enough if you're interested in diverse realistic skins. They're a bit heavy, yeah, but well done and mostly free.

Made some gays...

Ukraine core, the burning building after tonight's missile attack, probably the missile itself isn't even over yet, but there's a food delivery guy already working 👍

[wistfulpoltergeist]

🥲👍

[wistfulpoltergeist]

I won't buy Paralives any time soon. Bc I'm broke and things in Ukraine get more expensive each day bc of the war russia launched against us. So yeah. 🥲 But I will buy it eventually, of course, when save enough for two copies as I also want to buy it for my sis. ☺️

Hey, @goamazons! It's us! 😀

[wistfulpoltergeist]

Draw myself a farmer :3 Thanks to Poltergeister's Stardew Valley Character Portrait maker whose portrait I used as a base. Also thanks to Soft Farmer for their mod and resources I also used to create my hairstyle and facial hair. And of course, thanks to the creator of Farmer Portraits for the whole idea.

[wistfulpoltergeist]

Remade my Hanzo the Farmer. This time I draw his portrait myself from scratch as alas Poltergeister's Stardew Valley Character Portrait maker can't give me the maturity! picture I want. I was nervous at first as I never draw in pixel art before. But I think he turned out really handsome. *__*

If you wanna have Hanzo in your SV game (as your farmer or convert him into one of the bachelors) here's his portrait's pack + hairstyle and facial hair. (install on top of Farmer Portraits and Soft Farmer mods for your farmer!) Don't forget to credit me if you use him for your mods ;3

I don't usually share my own experience on here and just reblog information abt Ukraine but I can't keep it like this any longer. because I'm a real person behind the screen and I can just cease to exist at any moment. because this has been our reality for years, and the world must always remember how bloodthirsty russians are.

tonight russians carried one of the most brutal attacks with tons of drones, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles, killing several civilians and wounding dozens.

after the sleepless night, I'm just shaking right now at the realisation that my family and I could've died tonight because multiple missiles and drones were flying right above our house. hearing the sound of a drone approaching, I legit thought it was going to fucking hit our house, the explosions were EXTREMELY LOUD. and it's like this all the time.

when you leave the shelter in the morning, you try to get at least some sleep so you can carry on with your day. but for some, the day won't continue. they will have no dreams, no future to build. because RUSSIANS KILLED THEM. and throughout the day, you feel something inside you dying over and over again. this emptiness, born of the realisation of reality, consumes you.

I'm scared for my friends, for their families, and for all Ukrainians. I'm scared for my friend who is currently fighting in the war. I want justice for all of us and for my country. for all the civilians and military personnel who were tortured and killed, for all the POWs, for all those who were deported, for all the children who have been living in fear, for those who were killed, and for those who were forcibly taken into ruzzian "families". I just want to live happy. I want my people to live happy. but instead, we have to fight for our existence every single day. I want russia to burn for everything these terrorists have done. fuck all of them.

I'm eternally thankful to our defenders for me being alive today. I'm eternally thankful to our rescue workers.

please remember about Ukraine.
