  1. 🌨🇺🇦 We’re tired of the news, of our worries, of the uncertainty. The dust of events settles deep within us, weighing on our souls. And we need rain that drums on the rooftops, making us wait. Then you step outside, and the world is washed clean. And it feels as though you are, too.

  2. @DrMcStrange I just dug in a little deeper: it appears that the first Russian rail terminal in St Petersburg in the 1830s had a pleasure garden (a "Vauxhall") attached to it to entice vistors.

    People ended up using the word to describe the whole terminal complex rather than just the pleasure garden, then it was downcoded to a generic eponym for other terminals as the rail lines spread through the Tsarist Empire (much as any periodic thermal spring is called a "geyser" in English, after Geysir in Iceland).

  24. Joint efforts remain essential to ensure the return of all #Ukrainian children and to hold accountable those responsible for forced deportation, forced adoption, re-education, Russification, and militarization of #Ukrainian children. We are grateful to our partners for increasing pressure through sanctions.

    🇬🇧 The #UnitedKingdom has sanctioned 85 individuals and entities.
    🇨🇦 #Canada is imposing sanctions on 23 individuals and 5 organizations.
    🇪🇺 The #EuropeanUnion sanctions target 16 individuals and 7 organizations.

    “These measures target not only individuals and entities, but also the entire machinery behind the forced deportation and assimilation of #Ukrainian children. This is not politics. It is about protecting children, defending human dignity, and upholding international law,” stated #Ukraine 's Minister of Foreign Affairs Andrii Sybiha. 👉 Arrest wanted war criminal Putin

    This spring something odd is in the air

    #Ukrainian #long-range strikes are going from strength to strength, maturing from single headline-grabbing explosions to wholesale destruction of Russia’s most important #oil export & #refining facilities

    Tension was especially seen ahead of #Putin's #VictoryDay parade. No postcard display of Russian power this time. The parade is now a liability, lightning rod of #Kremlin's #weakness, #paranoia

  39. Good morning to readers; #Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.

    On Friday, #Zelenskyy - always the comedian - issued a formal decree just to troll Russians.
