GLOBAL STRIKE FOR GAZA BEGINS TODAY!!!

Sadly, typical russia.

Russia kidnapped yet another Georgian, Ramaz Begheluri as he was visiting his brother's grave close to the occupation line. Easter is a very important holy celebration, eastern orthodoxs visit their dead relatives to pay respect the next day. Kidnapping someone as they are trying to visit their dead brother's grave in this holy week is an unforgivable sin — Russians are no christians, they only pretend when it suits their agenda.

yeah but you know who else died before they could finish their works?

не бачила, щоб на тамблері писали за цю ситуацію, тож поширюю тут

thatgamecompany (компанія, якій належать ігри sky cotl і journey) нещодавно на етері висловили щодо російського вторгення меседж "обидві сторони бачать одна одну як жертву [ війни ], підтримують одна одну і досі залишаються на зв'язку"

дуже потрібно поширити в твіттері, щоб цей кейс не пройшов мимо, і щоб донести компанії, що ширити наративи про дружбу з агресором це не нормально

особливо з врахуванням того, що вони буквально вкинули цей меседж через тиждень після рос атаки на Охматдит. тупо щоб показати на етері, що їх гра така вже 'пречудова' і 'прекрасна', що, бачте, виявляється навіть єднає агресорів і їх жертв (тільки думки укр ком'юніті гри щодо цього вони щось не питали)

What is the best way to financially help Ukraine? Is it better to go through organizations or gofundmes or something else I'm not aware of?

Thanks for asking, nonnie. That's very kind of you. If you or anyone else has some spare change and wants to give, here are a few ideas:

United24 is the official fundraising platform established by President Zelenskyy and other Ukrainian governmental members and directs money to all areas of the country.

The Olena Zelenska Foundation is primarily focused on medical, humanitarian, and educational aid across the country and was founded by the First Lady.

Stand for Ukraine gives you a range of charity options, depending on whether you want to donate directly to the military, or you would prefer to fund non-lethal or humanitarian aid, etc.

Come Back Alive is the main fundraising platform for the Ukrainian military. You can choose to donate to air defense, heavy weapons, demining, medical aid, overall combat equipment, etc.

Donate to Ukraine's Defenders also offers various (carefully vetted) links and options to donate to rebuilding projects, private medical assistance programs, initiatives for democracy, and others.

Resources for News about the War in Ukraine & other News from Ukraine

For news and information specifically about the war, as well as some general educational content about Ukraine where it adds context, there's this dedicated website, that's a great resource on the war in Ukraine:

https://war.ukraine.ua/

For news in general about Ukraine from Ukraine (obviously including the war, but also other news), these are two good choices:

"Ukrinform" - Ukrainian National News Agency:

https://www.ukrinform.net/

"The Kyiv Independant" - Ukraine's biggest English language news site:

___________

If you prefer a source that's not involved in the war or with Ukraine for objectivity... In terms of non-Ukrainian /Western news I generally - for any kind of world news - prefer and recommend Reuters. It's my go-to (non Ukrainian) news source to follow international events, because by my observation it's the most objective and neutral one. So much so that it's often almost boring to read, compared to articles from other sources, and sometimes even borderline infuriating in its neutrality where common sense clearly suggests a certain judgement, but in the context of news we want factual information over entertainment or opinions, and Reuters will provide that more reliably than others:

PS: Please also read this post of mine to learn why it really matters to get your Ukraine related news from a Ukrainian source, or at least include Ukrainian sources in your media consumption, rather than using exclusively Western sources.

Thank you, Sakartvelo. Keep fighting. We believe in you.

HELLO! MY COUNTRY IS DESCENDING INTO AUTHORITARIANISM! PLEASE READ!

I'm too angry to formulate how many lines the government has crossed and how dangerous the situation has gotten… please read, and know the truth.

hearing officials and public figures criticize biden openly on talk shows and seeing newspaper headlines sharply decry israel killing aid workers is making me feel kind of crazy. like it could've been like this the whole time. before 40,000 palestinians were killed and the infrastructure of gaza destroyed. it could've been like this when people gathered their children in plastic bags at al-ahli hospital, when a poet and his family were assassinated for a joke, when journalists buried their families on air, when children were targeted by drones on camera, when a little boy holding his grandmother's hand in one hand and a white flag in another watched her get shot and die in front of him, when a cameraman was left to bleed out with a live counter for hours while his rescuers were shot, when patients were bulldozed in their tents in the courtyard of a hospital, when four babies were left die and decompose alone in their hospital beds, when six year old hind rajab was crying for help trapped in a car with the corpses of her family on the phone with the red crescent for hours until she and the rescuers sent to get her were killed too.

We love you, Sakartvelo. Keep fighting. 🇺🇦🇬🇪

Unprecedented police brutality in Tbilisi today. The police are beating up teenagers, throwing rocks and bottles at peaceful protesters.

Yapper & Listener trend!
