@healyjforUC noted Julia Davis's posts of russian TV's standard approach to their actions: deny, deny, deny.
Remember russian TV saying this? ""All our hope is in the famine..."

I and a dear friend just got our English-language copies of Victoria Amelina's @vamelina unfinished book this week. Her life was cut short in 2023 by a russian missile striking a city center in Kramatorsk, Ukraine on June 27, 2022. 🧵
I have been staring at the finished book in my hands for days now, so thankful for the strong women who have completed Vika's project, yet frozen when I tried to open it to read.
I read the forward last night but could not bring myself to read further to Vika's actual words. It's almost as if reading them is a final acceptance of her death, despite all of her words clearly telling me otherwise.
