The notion of greatness is very important to russian imperial mindset. Greatness is not only an evaluative category that is presented as something factual, but is used to absolve crimes a great culture can be excused for. It also absolves from reading other books.

Built in 1896 by the architect Zahoskin for Heinrich Hellferich a Kharkiv tradesman. 30 historical landmarks damaged in one russian strike. @UNESCO @UKRinUNESCO must act fast inscribing historical centre of Kharkiv protected cultural heritage. Or we will lose this like Aleppo.

@trymtinnia У нас є дошка для привітань російською. Української немає. Завжди вішаю туди оголошення про українські події, хоча їх і зривають. Але лупаю сю скалу)

Another street art with the poem of Victoria Amelina. This one about the number of losses, unknown. In the Nafta theatre nearby Liuba Ilnytska spoke about the empty spaces we need to leave in the city to be able to mourn the loss openly.

Today I’ve been presented with the first recycled paper in Ukraine. This kind is called, The Dawn. There’s also another type, The Dusk. All launched after the full-scale invasion. We want to live good so much.

@bamboniUA Ukrainians were actually reprimanded by one university for not being nice to russian students in the early 2022. That was hilarious.

The third day of mourning in one week - this is russian culture truly. Every russian enjoying their day is responsible.

Russians just hit an “Epicenter” hypermarket in Kharkiv with two “FAB” aerial bombs. Deliberately on the weekday when lots of civilians are inside. 2 people confirmed killed, large number of people is missing and many are wounded. There is a big fire going on right now.

Saying non-goodbye to Lviv. My fieldwork here was interviewing Kharkiv expats, yet can’t get away from the cosy darkish Lviv vibes. When the big war started I cried to my friend, “we might never see each other again”, and then we met 1000 times. With Lviv I always feel the same.

Today’s Kharkiv cat went to buy a traditional embroidered shirt, cause it’s a Vyshyvanka day.
