Yet another attack by those b*st*rd russians. Every day. Every night. Past time for the allies to do something!

Sunshine streaming through the forest, casting shadows and highlighting moss and lichen on the branches crisscrossing the image.

Such a beautiful day in #Vancouver. The rainforest was steaming in the sunshine after yesterday’s deluge.

Odesa right now after massive Russian drone attack on the city‼️

Fucking monsters! I just don't have any appropriate words to say. Bastards.

Here’s the situation in the Twin Cities:

Random Bovino-style tear-gassing: Way down

Relentless persecution of immigrants: Unchanged

Thuggish violence against observers: Way up

Today’s energy schedule for my part of Kyiv 3.5 hours of power out of 24. This is the worst it has been since the start of the full scale invasion. Putin has used Trump’s “peace process” as cover to increase his attacks. Civilian deaths and energy attacks notably up under Trump.

Currently in Kyiv it's -5c (feels like -8c), it will get much colder Sunday night and falling to -20c on Monday.

In such conditions, residents are getting 90 minutes to 2 hours of electricity a day and in Irpen they had only 20 minutes.

No improvement is expected for a week.

Are you concerned that Pierre Poilievre refuses to get national security clearance?
We are facing unprecedented level of threat from external forces and internal traitor groups.

An update from Yaroslava from today (Saturday) about 1 hour ago. Please keep Kyiv and all of Ukraine in your thoughts. If you’re able please support Yaroslava as she continues her wonderful mission of keeping us informed about Kyiv, as well as Ukrainian history & culture.

Good!

My photo shows two Roman gold-band mosaic glass bottles on display at the Met Museum. Made of mosaic patterned translucent cobalt blue, turquoise green, and opaque white glass, together with gold leaf encased in colourless glass. Both bottles have round bodies, flat bases, and cyclindrical necks with horizontal everted rims. The larger bottle on the left is 10.5 cm tall, the smaller bottle on the right is 4.8 cm tall. They are displayed on a clear glass shelf against a light beige background. According to the museum label: “Gold-band cast glass was a particularly opulent type of early Roman glassware. It combines canes of brightly colored translucent and opaque glass with strips of gold leaf encased between layers of colorless glass. Only a limited number of vessel shapes were made in this way, and some of the most common are small globular or carinated bottles such as these. They were presumably used to store expensive cosmetics and perfumes”.

Luxury Roman scent bottles made of gold-band mosaic glass. 1st century AD.

This opulent glass was made by encasing strips of gold leaf between layers of colourless glass.

Beautiful example of the skill of ancient glassmakers some 2,000 years ago!

I quite often post the map showing approximate flight paths of Russia's missiles and drones after the worst attacks.

This time, Ukraine is almost invisible under the multi-coloured lines - I don't remember it being that bad before.

Always here, dear Yaroslava and although it doesn't help, very angry with what the bloody russians are getting away with. Thinking of you. 💙💛

Here's a round-up of all the problems I've been writing about all night, and morning!

There's a lot going on in the world now, especially with the nut in the White House, but please DO NOT forget about Ukraine. russians are targetting infrastructure every single day with massive missile attacks in an effort to eliminate Ukraine. Please follow Tim's thread for all updates.

The war in Europe continues. This is Day 1445 of Russia's attempt to erase Ukraine from the map & destroy its language and culture.

The genocide continues as I type, with a massive missile attack underway.

For all the news as it happens, keep checking back. This is THE daily🧵

Bloody russian terrorists 🤬🤬

"Mr. Carney’s speech went beyond diagnosis, though. It also gestured toward a way out. The U.S. president left Greenland alone in part because Denmark and its allies put more troops there...

"The lesson: America might be pointing a gun at you, but it can be made to behave if you point a gun back."

Thinking of you, dear Yaroslava.

Kropivnitskyi was just part of a concerted attack on the city.

In the Oleksandriia district, houses and power lines have been damaged. A 'warehouse building' was also hit."

The map of the night attack shows Kropivnitskyi, left-most of the 4 explosions.

Wow! A very ancient yew tree (started growing centuries before Alfred the Great!).

The Globe and Mail employed the notorious Russian propagandist Anastasia Trofimova to make the film.

Greetings from Kyiv
and a warcoffee after the workout.

The repairman fixed the windows, and I hope the little warmth we still have will now stay inside the flat.

1,126 high-rise buildings on the left bank of Kyiv (where I live) remain without heating after the latest russian attack.

Day 1444 of Russia's merciless war has begun with the invaders losing another Lieutenant General - has Ukraine's special services struck again?

Detail on all the stories, all day, every day in my daily thread. Let's Go!

This is Yaroslava’s post a couple of hours ago. Please keep her and the brave people of Ukraine in your thoughts and in your heart. If you’re not following and supporting Yaroslava, you should be. She is a strong and wonderful voice for Kyiv and all of Ukraine.
