"the fuck is happening in ukraine??" for the ignorant [23feb22]

THIS IS NOT EXHAUSTIVE. I have left out happenings. As I typed this more movement was reported. This is happening NOW.

Here is a map of Ukrainian oblasts (regions)

Direct your eyeballs to the eastern (that's on the right of the map) oblasts of Donetsk and Luhansk. These two oblasts make up the Donets Coal Basin, or Donbas region, of Ukraine. coal coal coal.

Hold them in your mind.

On this map above you can see an outline of the Russian separatist-controlled area of Eastern Ukraine. Please note that the Russian separatist-controlled area is not analogous to the oblasts of Donetsk and Luhansk. When on 21 February 2022 Putin declared recognition of the Donetsk People's Republic (DNR) and Luhansk People's Republic (LNR) as independent, we did not know if he meant just those cities and the surrounding Russian separatist-controlled areas OR the entirety of the oblasts. Where these borders are is incredibly important because Putin will use any excuse to declare a Ukrainian provocation. This ambiguity is to his advantage. [This is besides the fact that Putin has no fucking right to declare any of this land independent, or take any of it for Russia in the coming days.]

The Russian separatists, of course, claim the entirety of the oblasts, and Putin recognizes those claims. Russia has come to the "aid" of the separatists to defend against Ukrainian "aggression."

Tonight (23 February 2022), President Zelenskyy of Ukraine tried to speak to Putin on the phone, but was rebuffed. He gave a brief update to his people in Ukrainian, and then a long speech to the Russian people in Russian. Below is text of a translation of that speech from Max Seddon on twitter [thread starts here, good follow]:

We are divided by a shared border of more than 2,000 kilometers. Almost 200,000 of your troops and thousands of military vehicles are standing alongside it. Your leadership has ordered them to move forward, onto another country's territory. This step could be the start of a big war on the European continent. The whole world is talking about what could happen any day now. Any provocation. Any flare-up – one that could burn everything.

They're telling you that this flame will liberate the people of Ukraine, but the Ukrainian people are free. They remember their past and are building their future. Ukraine on your TV news and the real Ukraine are two totally different countries. Ours is real.

There is more, click above link to read.

Russia is going to invade Ukraine, and not just the Russian separatist-controlled regions that were recently declared independent republics by Putin. This is colonization. Ukraine has a rich history and culture separate from Russia (its history and culture is MUCH OLDER than that of Russia, even). Putin denies this and claims that Ukraine is Russian. This is false and ahistorical.

(But why are there so many Russian-speakers in Donetsk and Luhansk? Well perhaps because the Soviets committed genocide in the 1930s and purposely starved millions of Ukrainians so that ethnic Russians could move onto their land. Search "Holodomor" if this is new information to you.)

The UN Security Council has called an emergency meeting for 9:30pm EST (I'm posting this at 7:22 PM EST)

The mayor of Kyiv, Vitaly Klitschko, has declared an emergency.

Airports are closed in Eastern Ukraine.

the thing that gets me about about barbie is that barbie land wasn’t even purposefully a matriarchy, barbie land came about because of the way little girls were playing with their barbies, it wasn’t created by mattel it was created by the people using the toys, so the fact that the barbies ignored the ken’s and had girls night every night wasn’t because they had some bias against him, it was just an accurate depiction of how kids play with barbies. I had some ken dolls as a child and they were essential to the plot in the sense that of course my barbie has a boyfriend because that represented the world i saw around me, but also he didn’t have any purpose in my dream world because i was only interested in what the girls were doing because they represented me and how i wanted to be, I wanted girls night every night I wanted the girls to be president and austronauts and not because of some inherent feminist idea but because I was a girl and I wasn’t thinking about boys, ken was an accessory. this movie wasn’t made to change the world but it showed a different perspective than what we usually see which I thought was fun. Men don’t have to be the centre of all our stories and its not even because we hate them, sometimes we’re just not thinking about them

Loid Forger really said “ah yes Yor is such a normal person” after she drop kicked multiple people on their first date and then ran after a mugger on their second

THEN he spends one evening with her overprotective drunk brother and immediately clocks him as a member of the secret police.

The duality of this man is truly inspiring.

five and lila + dancing together

give me a five who has to go to regular school after all this bullshit is done. he would be the school fucking cryptid. the cullen s at forks high but to an extreme degree. he doesn’t talk to anyone, his name is a number, and he always teleports in school but never gets called on it. he talks like he’s 100 and looks like a scrawny beanpole but also broke the hand of that one guy that tried to mess with him. he has his whole table to himself at lunch because everyone’s scared of him. he becomes an urban legend to the whole school. no one ever sees him walking in the halls, but he’s the first person in every classroom. he answers all the questions he’s asked but he never pays attention, always scribbling all over whatever’s in front of him. one girl tried to ask him out once and he just stared at her for a full minute before she ran away. one kid got paired with him for a partner project with him and five took the kid to viktor’s place (because it would be quieter than trying to work in the academy) and no one was there the whole time so people think he’s like a tragic orphan living in an apartment all by himself. the kid went back the next day bc he left something there and the neighbor told him that no one had lived in that apartment for almost three months. he’s top of all the classes but he never participates on anything. he skips school often enough that it becomes yet another thing. he also has his own peculiar eating habits from the apocalypse so people will just watch him at lunch and see him eat like a bite of his sandwich and then tuck it back into his backpack. he’s a man out of time, he’s got no fucking clue what’s going on at all times. he doesn’t know what netflix is or how to work the school-provided laptops but he does know the exact details of several historical events with frightening precision and can do incredibly complicated math problems in his head. the current theory is that he’s an immortal of some kind that ages very slowly and now is trying to live in regular society to avoid suspicion but is failing spectacularly. back to school night comes and people vibrate with anticipation to see what’s gonna happen with him. most people bet he won’t show up but he does, and boy does he. he comes in with five or six adults, depending on who you ask. some one said one of them was allison hargreeves, the movie star. another one was absolutely giant and ripped to the max. they were all teasing and making fun of him for being such a little genius as he got steadily more and more frustrated. one kid swears he heard five threaten to castrate one of them with a rusty melon baller, which most people believe. someone tries to ask him how he knows the massively famous movie star once and he just laughs like a madman in the library for a full three minutes before getting himself kicked out. another person tried to ask which one was his parents and he told them with a deadpan straight face ‘none of them. my mothers a robot and the closest thing i had to a father was a highly advanced chimpanzee.’ when asked how he knew all these people he said ‘i’m a dumbass magnet, apparently.’ he answered no more questions about it ever. there’s an instagram page dedicated to finding out information about him and it gets hacked every other week by someone who will post about how fucking ridiculous the account is and how moronic they are and don’t they have anything better to do with their lives. he talks to himself constantly. just, give me cryptid five in a public high school. please.
