Jane Austen's novels will never be 'unrelatable' because the grumpy smart introvert and my spirit animal, Mr. John Knightley, is literally here:

'(...) here are we setting forward to spend five dull hours in another man's house, with nothing to say or to hear that was not said and heard yesterday, and may not be said and heard again to-morrow. Going in dismal weather, to return probably in worse; -- four horses and four servants taken out for nothing but to convey five idle, shivering creatures into colder rooms and worse company than they might have had at home.' - Chapter 13

John Knightley only was in mute astonishment. That a man who might have spent his evening quietly at home after a day of business in London, should set off again, and walk half-a-mile to another man's house, for the sake of being in mixed company till bed-time, of finishing his day in the efforts of civility and the noise of numbers, was a circumstance to strike him deeply. - Chapter 35

Wanna see how Russians hunted civilian cars in Kyiv region in March 2022?

Surreal now that it was all happening some 15 km from where I lived and I followed the local chats crying that "People, don't evacuate by the road leading to Zhytomyrska highway! Russians are hiding among trees off road there and shooting down civilian cars!!" in real time - and now I can actually see it happening on recovered footage from street cameras. Surreal.

"russia has a great culture! where are the Ukrainian artists?"

my fav emo boy

дванадцятий епізод сирин був абсолютно чудовим, я в захваті, люблю розкриття влада

з іншого: не так давно помітила, що якщо придивитися - на модельці влада, на руці, є шрам і тепер я божевільна з цього приводу. також, даниїл був придурком за пранк з привидами.

so.... ukrainian visual novels.

(тут мав бути милий романтичний арт з моментом з останнього епізоду, але щось пішло не так, anyway, просуваємо фандом мунчай в тамблері!!)

eventually, you get used to war. your heart doesn’t flutter when you hear yet another air raid alarm. you don’t even rush to the shelter anymore. you don’t flinch when your windows shake. you don’t feel shit when that gut-wrenching thing of a whistle hovers above your rooftop; nor do you feel frightened when it lands — loud, and horrific, and explosive, ruining homes, fates and lives.

and then, on a random day — it finally fucking strikes you.

your heart didn’t flutter the last time you heard yet another air raid alarm. you didn’t go to the shelter. you didn’t even flinch when a fucking missile landed less than a pitiful mile away from your house.

you got used to war.

a real one — exceptionally sick, and murderous, and twisted.

i haven’t felt safe in almost two years now and i’m used to it. i’m used to danger. i’m used to death. i’m used to seeing it. how incredibly fucked up is that?

anyway. my point is. russia is a terrorist state. please go look up what they did to ukraine in the last two days. yes, the new year’s eve didn’t stop them much. as didn’t easter. or christmas. or any other day, really.

for those concerned about me: i am safe (well, only technically, since you’re not actually safe anywhere in ukraine, but still).

i am simply tired, sad, and heartbroken. please spread some awareness. thank you for you attention.
