I wish I could communicate how bleak this situation looks for historically oppressed minorities in Ukraine.
I support Ukrainian independence.
I also fear the climate that makes it impossible to talk about Ukraine's systemic failings without it being labeled Russian propaganda.
I have to put on a smile today.
I have writing to do. Art to make. A crowdfunding campaign to promote.
My ancestors were hardy people and so am I. But this is hard. Very hard. And despite the smile, I am not okay.

Both characters are a little world-weary, but for very different reasons.
