I just don't want my country to be forgotten.
I don't want people to forget that Ukraine, as well as Belarus, never wanted to be with russia, NEVER, and never will. russia is destroying everything dear to me.
I wish to see the days when Ukraine is free, with all the territories, with no russian language, no occupiers, nothing russian. I wish to see the days when people start saying Kyivan Rus and Volodymyr the Great. I wish to see Belarus with their REAL flag and official language and without ANYTHING russian. I wish to see people posting Belaruthian writers and artists and call them Belaruthian, not russian. We are not russian. We will never be russian. But we pay a huge price for that.
I want people in this fandom to understand my hatred, to understand what I feel when I read about, for example, russian occupation of Lithuania and Latvia.
I want people to understand what I feel when I search for articles about anything in Belaruthian, and I find NOTHING. Everything is in russian. I want people to understand what I feel when I hear my former classmate telling me that a russian rocket killed her neighbour.
If my land is gonna be forgotten, it means my family is gonna be forgotten, and I am gonna be forgotten. I don't want to be forgotten.
If you think "it's just politics, you shouldn't bring politics" - you are a very fucking cruel and heartless person.

Lyubov Panchenko (1938 - 2022) was a Ukrainian artist and fashion designer, winner of the Vasyl Stus Prize, who belonged to a group of artists of the Sixties who revived Ukrainian culture during the Khrushchev Thaw.
A talented fashion designer, Lyubov Panchenko worked in various genres of art, including watercolors, linocuts, fantasy decorative paintings, and collage paintings made of coat fabric.
Panchenko's artistic and political impulse was in full force for the rest of her life. When Russian troops advanced on her hometown of Bucha, she remained at home under occupation for more than a month. Starvation and isolation led to her death on April 30, 2022.
My mother's first home was a refugee camp. Her mother was sold on a Nazi slave market.
I have dead relatives on Ukrainian battlefields. We can't get them back because russia has colonised the regions.
One relative was taken hostage by the bastard russians and tortured for 2.5 years.
The word "slave" actually means "Slavic person". The word "genocide" was invented in Lviv.
An Amnesty International guy chased my mother through a shopping mall, yelling at her that she was a "stupid white woman who wouldn't know what a refugee is".
Ukrainians aren't allowed to talk about the racism we get every single fucking day because we're "too white".
I Am Not Your Asian American Doll: a comic for AAPI Heritage Month 2023
I usually spend a lot of time editing and fine-tuning my comics so that they come across as polite and inoffensive. But honestly, I’m really tired of the way Asian cultures and countries are treated / talked about while Asian people themselves are excluded, and thought it was about time I really let my rage out lol.
