Please don't forget Armenians
Today is Armenian genocide remembrance day. On april 24, 1915 started mass deportations of hundreds of Armenian intelectuals and community leaders, who were (most of the time) eventually killed. Armenian women and children were systematically r//ed and forcibly converted into islam. There were more than 2 milion Armenians in ottoman empire prior to ww1, 1,5 milion of them were viciously killed. Three millennia of Armenian civilaziation in eastern Anatolis was fully destroyed. Turkey today refuses to acknowledge genocides of christian minorities in early 20th century.
Do you know that mass ethnic cleansing of Armenians in ottoman empire inspired Lemkin to coin the term 'genocide'?
Last year in september azerbaijan allied with turkey initiated a war against Armenia. More that 5000 Armenians were murdered, thousands of Armenia families had to live their ancestrial land to not get murdered. There are hundreds of vids on internet where armenian p.o.w.s are tortured. Recently azerbaijan opened a "museum" displayind dead or dying Armenians and kids were allowed to visit it.

Text translation:
"Ran khokly (slur for Ukrainians) from their home in Mariupol, and now I'm sitting and resting on my yard. Thank you russian soldiers for such an opportunity. Glory to Russia"
These is yet another example of an ordinary russian person who has nothing to do with politics, just casually moves in into a home of a Ukrainian family who (best case scenario) fled their home.

Fun thing to do for Americans today:
Call your congress people and demand that they vote for the Ukraine aid bill.
It's been almost 500 days since congress last approved aid to Ukraine. 🇺🇦 forces are severely lacking in ammunition there, which means they cannot protect their cities and energy infrastructure and have to leave soldiers at the frontline without cover because they need to ration their firepower. Civilians are dying, soldiers defending freedom and democracy are dying. Ukraine will lose and cease to exist if they run out of weapons.
Russia is 100% responsible for the war, but inaction makes the USA complicit and will lead to a bigger war in Europe that is very likely going to include NATO directly, meaning your fellow countrypeople will actually have to come here and fight. Don't want that? Then fucking support Ukraine NOW! It's the morally right and logical thing to do and serves your own interests!!

I'm so numb and exhausted. Our "allies" abandoning us means even more deaths, even more destruction. Today I was walking home and thinking how much I love my city, my country, people around me, but we can't catch missiles with our bare hands, we need air defence, we need weapons. The only thing that keeps me going is the fact that we owe persistence to the people who died. We owe them to keep going. We owe our defenders, they can't just give up because they feel like it. My level of tiredness isn't even 1% of the one our defenders, first responders and volunteers feel. Call your representatives, ask for air defence for Ukraine. We need it to survive.

Today russia hit the city of Chernihiv with three missiles.
Currently, 11 13 people are known to have been killed, 22 over 60 wounded, and at least 3 are missing. The strikes were targeted on civilian infrastructure. The rescue operation is ongoing.
In the video you can see the moment of one of the strikes.

Ukraine has almost run out of missiles for Patriots.
While Mike Johnson, led by Trump, is stalling military aid to Ukraine, we are being killed every day. Our infrastructure is being destroyed. We need air defense while there is still something left to defend. Ukraine is paying for the delay in aid with innocent lives lost.

Beyond repulsed that Ben Whishaw has agreed to whitewash a literal russian nazi in Limonov: The Ballad. A nazi whose pathetic existence would be forgotten in a couple of years unless russian director Kiril Serebrennikov decided to immortalize the romanticized version of him and market it to the festival crowd as a story of a rebel and avant-garde rock star. The Cannes Film Festival made a huge mistake by including this film in its program. Last time, Serebrennikov used the Cannes platform to advocate for lifting the sanctions from Roman Abramovich (a notorious russian oligarch) and portray russian soldiers as victims of russian war against Ukraine.

Hey, Americans, I have zero idea what your media are telling you now, but we are retreating currently and suffering heavy losses, Russians are gaining ground - all because there have been shortage of munitions - cause your Republicans have been putting off signing the help to Ukraine for months now, following Trump's orders.

Kharkiv is under massive shelling every single day. I have a friend who lives there; she's constantly experiencing blackouts caused by these bombings, and she can't study or draw properly. Not to mention, she can be injured or worse.
Please advocate sending military help, especially air defense, to Ukraine. Without it, the chances of her, my other friends, me, my family, and thousands of other Ukrainians getting killed by a freaking russian missile or drone are growing every day.

My roman empire is that meme of Tarkovsky saying: 'Poetic cinema' while looking awe-struck, and that ppl use it thinking he means like "when a movie is really good", but he's actually talking about a specific film movement - Ukrainian Poetic Cinema - which influenced his work a tone, and a Ukrainian film director - Oleksandr Dovzhenko who was on the forefront of this movement in the 1920s - 1930s, and you can find also find the influence of the artistic continuation of the Ukrainian Poetic Cinema in the 1960s in his works, and he stanned Parajanov, and still the Western academia erases that influence, pushes the Ukrainian Poetic Cinema of the 1960s into the same box of the Soviet New Wave, even though this is a very distinct artistic movement with a unique visual grammar that you don't find in the russian New Wave, because the lens through which the cinema is viewed is still deeply colonialist
