To all those contacting me, asking to take sides in petty squabbles, daily.

I have two close family members dead in this war. Killed by Russians.

I care ONLY about winning the war. I support any effort or NGO or government organization aiding that effort.

Nothing else.
For me, "supporting Ukraine" isn't a game.

I'm not on some temporary adventure with goal of heading back to Nebraska or Kansas with some new found notoriety or significance I wasn't able to obtain there.

Going to funerals since 2015..

Winning the war is all there is.
Russians have killed people I loved, family, and I stood there, watched the coffins lowered with straps. We left them there each time, leaving them in the cold ground. Drove home.
Foreigners that couldn't find Ukraine on a map 14 months ago are now spending time sowing division amongst NGO's and others that are actually aiding the war effort.

Don't.

The adults will win this without your "help".

The man was a BadAss and since this war began I've been lucky enough to have known 100 like him.

Ukraine is teaching the world what really matters.

We are nothing if not free.

Reports now that Russia's Engels" Air Base has been hit, destroying 2 Tu-95's.

This is the field from which long range bombers regularly target all Ukraine.

Let's hope this is true. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Apparently Russians have around 100 of these similar planes in service.

Doubtgul it'll slow down the next missle barrage.

Russians killed and ate all the animals at the Yampol Zoo. Many appear to have just killed for fun and left to rot.

Camels, Lions, Beaver, raccoons, Ostriches, turtles, more..

Skins are laying around like they planned to take them home or sell. Maybe forgotten in retreat twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
The name is incorrect.
It was this place.

If you want to feel like putting your fist through a wall (in russia), read the reviews from happy families saying how friendly the animals are, how they like children etc..
