Ukrainian writing about Ukraine and Russia ⎊ Product Designer ⎊ Making flashlights for UA defenders at Syaivohttps://bsky.app/profile/riririri.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/riririri.bsky.social/post/3mmyo7rqlac25Just received a print copy of Ordinary Guy at War, written by my dear friend @dim0kq.bsky.social. I already knew his story personally and had read the digital version, but the book still revealed many fascinating details. A bold and touching story by a wonderful person.29 May 2026 13:44 +0000at://did:plc:mrnasea5vpt2f3rfv6ljqmth/app.bsky.feed.post/3mmyo7rqlac25https://bsky.app/profile/riririri.bsky.social/post/3mlj54ihhz22xThe anatomy of Russian genocide was forged centuries ago. A friend of mine serving in the Ukrainian army, deeply into history, recently told me a story I had never heard. He told me about Ubykhs who we erased by Russians centuries ago.10 May 2026 16:03 +0000at://did:plc:mrnasea5vpt2f3rfv6ljqmth/app.bsky.feed.post/3mlj54ihhz22xhttps://bsky.app/profile/riririri.bsky.social/post/3mj3onhnp5s23Ukraine never received cheap gas from Russia. For most of the post-Soviet era, Kyiv paid prices at or above what Western European nations paid, even though it sat directly on the pipeline and provided the transit corridor that made Russia's gas empire possible🧵09 Apr 2026 20:49 +0000at://did:plc:mrnasea5vpt2f3rfv6ljqmth/app.bsky.feed.post/3mj3onhnp5s23https://bsky.app/profile/riririri.bsky.social/post/3mfok2xpcdc2bWorst anecdote ever.25 Feb 2026 11:07 +0000at://did:plc:mrnasea5vpt2f3rfv6ljqmth/app.bsky.feed.post/3mfok2xpcdc2bhttps://bsky.app/profile/riririri.bsky.social/post/3mflpy664ws26Four years revealed Russia as a disgraceful, hollow colossus on clay feet. Four year showed the extraordinary courage of ordinary Ukrainians fighting for the right to be Ukrainian. Four years exposed corrupt Western elites and the sincerity of people who truly stand with us.24 Feb 2026 08:15 +0000at://did:plc:mrnasea5vpt2f3rfv6ljqmth/app.bsky.feed.post/3mflpy664ws26https://bsky.app/profile/riririri.bsky.social/post/3mfjlkfw4ks2nI’ll be honest, February was tough for us, especially with high electricity bills and power outages.

In a viral Instagram video, iamdonskikh says he feels ashamed for once asking NATO to protect Ukraine from Russians. In the comments, many share the same feeling. Why is that?19 Feb 2026 20:01 +0000at://did:plc:mrnasea5vpt2f3rfv6ljqmth/app.bsky.feed.post/3mfaf4fhusk26https://bsky.app/profile/riririri.bsky.social/post/3mf7cgq3cnc2dOn the morning of February 18, Russians destroyed a 1957 locomotive and an antique carriage with a drone strike. I saw that beautiful train in Haivoron several months ago. It’s used only for celebrations. Just an ordinary Russian desire to destroy and kill. Fucking barbarians.19 Feb 2026 09:40 +0000at://did:plc:mrnasea5vpt2f3rfv6ljqmth/app.bsky.feed.post/3mf7cgq3cnc2dhttps://bsky.app/profile/riririri.bsky.social/post/3meofpxes7s2aWhatever IOC wanted to do for their Russian patrons it didn’t work. Vladyslav Heraskevych received much more than a medal. He is a hero, he is being supported by the most wonderful people.

I think most Ukrainians want elections. But they were stolen from us. Not by Zelensky, but by the Russians. And instead stopping the Russian terrorist regime, Ukraine is being forced to put its citizens at risk and hold elections under fire.11 Feb 2026 11:14 +0000at://did:plc:mrnasea5vpt2f3rfv6ljqmth/app.bsky.feed.post/3meldwgfbes2zhttps://bsky.app/profile/riririri.bsky.social/post/3mejifucw3c26Activity during power outages #20110 Feb 2026 17:29 +0000at://did:plc:mrnasea5vpt2f3rfv6ljqmth/app.bsky.feed.post/3mejifucw3c26https://bsky.app/profile/riririri.bsky.social/post/3meixwq5ddk2hOne of best gifts for Putin is Western leaders trying to talk to him. Empty negotiations only legitimize a terrorist maniac, buy him time, and let him dictate terms.

They will strike homes, kill children, and freeze elderly.
