This is a record of private twitter conversations between two men (composer, Dmytro Morykit and a Ukrainian in Kyiv) who met on social media (Twitter) after Russia began a full-scale invasion of Ukraine on 24th February 2022.

Introduction

Initially interacting through public posts, private messages began and built up. Twitter (now X) does not store all conversations so by the time we decided to make the conversations public, all interaction before January 2024 had been removed.

For obvious reasons, our Ukrainian friend has been anonymised for the purpose of this post, but Dmytro is a well-known and active member of the Ukrainian community in Scotland and beyond.

Although Dmytro is British, his father was Ukrainian and his mother Italian. Both came to the UK immediately after WWII. 

As a young boy, Dmytro has many memories of his father, Teodor’s, trauma and knew that his Grandparents, Uncles and Aunts were either still in Ukraine or had been killed by German or Russian armies. There was limited contact during the cold war as the Russians used oppressive tactics and limited communication with the west which created deep suspicion on both sides. Teodor did send letters, but many did not arrive or were interfered with. He knew this when on one occasion he sent his mother an expensive pair of boots and a few months later a photo arrived where she was wearing cheap boots (which she thought he’d sent) and thanked him.

Teodor was an active member of the Ukrainian community in the UK and died at age 92 in Perthshire, never having seen his parents or most of his siblings since being taken by the Germans in 1944 at the age of 19. Although he was able to return to Ukraine in 1996 after the fall of the Soviet Union, he met his youngest sister and niece, but his other brothers and elder sisters had either been killed in the German death camps or taken by the Red Army and died in Siberia. No one was able (or willing) to say what had happened to his father who was very ill at the time of his taking. Returning to Ukraine brought further unexpected trauma: He was shocked to discover his youngest sister (aged 8 when he was taken) spoke Russian. He also discovered the cherry trees had gone - when the Soviet Government imposed a tax on fruit trees, many poor farmers who could not pay had them chopped down. Teodor had talked about the cherry trees on their farm constantly - then, after his death, Dmytro found a cherry leaf in his father’s battered old bible which had obviously been carried with him all his adult life. He had read from his bible every night.

Meanwhile, Dmytro is still researching family in Ukraine and has found several new connections. He plans to visit soon but the war has further disrupted his efforts. 

This brief background information is important to give context to these conversations, as they were never intended to be published, they are emotionally honest and will be offensive to some. However, their insight and wide-ranging knowledge of why Ukraine and Russia are at this point will help people understand and avoid the huge amount of disinformation spread by russia about Ukraine.

Our Ukrainian friend writes:

“When the Muscovites called someone "brothers" - it means that this country\people\nation\republic will soon experience hybrid war, insidious propaganda, genocide, linguicide, ethnocide and open war without warning from the Katsaps. It was not only with us, but we, more than anyone else, have studied, know and understand the essence of this manipulative term from the eternal hereditary occupiers. The Katsaps are not really brothers to anyone, since they are not really a nation or people, but are only a large prison of various original peoples, whom they deliberately drove under their yoke with the help of hybrid and open genocidal wars of aggression, leaving them without the ability to have their own government, self-name, ethnic self-recognition, history, etc. As for the dominant population of Muscovites - they are also not a people, since they have neither their own culture nor the history of their formation (before the 16th century). They deliberately use the technology of forced assimilation, the so-called "brotherhood", in order to lull the vigilance of this or that people, in order to then penetrate into their belly, into state institutions, and using Trojan horse tactics, destroy this people from within. This is what the "brotherhood" of the Muscovites-Katsaps is.”

Dmytro's text is in GREEN

Our Ukrainian Friend writes in Ukrainian and uses an online translator to respond.

Found one of my Dad's badges. 

 "Your father was in the ranks of a very noble organization.

Are you familiar with the name xxxxxxxxx?

My friend Dmytro, if you are not immersed in the domestic political situation in Ukraine, then I will have to tell you various facts and events for a long time, but this person works in the interests of non-Ukrainians.

Thank you, I am not immersed and do not live in Ukraine but as you say take most information from what we read. However we do have friends in Ukraine who are immersed and do pass on some information. We do understand there is lots of different political opinion within Ukraine just as there is here.

Now I am not talking about political preferences - I do not belong to any existing political party or force, but I am talking about the reputation of certain persons, about facts and sober conclusions.

Ok sober is good 👍

Let's start from the beginning. It was the Russian FSB that started the genocidal war in Chechnya, and before that there was a long campaign of dehumanization of the Chechens commissioned by the Kremlin. Ukrainians (unofficially) helped the Chechens, by the way.

The policy of Obama, who, before being the US president, personally visited Kyiv to ensure the destruction of Ukrainian ballistic missiles and other weapons for our protection in exchange for \"security guarantees\". After that, Mr. Obama, by his ignoring, greatly contributed to Russia's unimpeded annexation of Crimea in 2014 - we know this well. You will not hear any criticism of these actions, which deprived Ukraine of the ability to defend itself. 

I can cite a few more weighty facts, but I don’t have much time for it now. Americans who support Ukraine also act to please the so-called “good Russians” - the same imperialists who masquerade as liberals. His actions, I see the protection of the interests of those who prioritize not people, not security, not our future, but big money from the sale of resources to the Moscow quasi-empire. Therefore, he will try to save it, and this is tantamount to repeating the events of thirty years ago, when the collapse of the USSR was deliberately stopped with the help of the United States and Russia, which were allowed to organize wars and massacres with impunity in its so-called “zone of influence.” We won't allow that this time. Enough.

OK no argument with you there

I see them as thinking they’re doing the right thing and learning from mistakes, but their soft underbelly needs the odd kicking . Like the BBC journalists. 

There is no reason either to respect or to listen to hypocritical words. Read the comments of Ukrainians and other foreign friends of Ukraine and you will understand everything yourself: 

We have a saying: when a boy is no longer 25 years old, but more than 50, it is too late to create hopes. I am telling you about the facts and about the sobriety of conclusions, not about idealistic and romantic assumptions. We, Ukrainians, do not need such a \"friend\" at all, because he does much more harm than conditional benefit. We cannot afford to be naive because it kills us.

Your father's example should tell you a lot about the criminal naivety when the majority of Ukrainians did not support the nationalist movements at the beginning of the 20th century and believed in the sweet fables of the Bolsheviks, plunging the country into a century of terror and enslavement. We no longer believe in empty words, but analyse actions and study the reputation of each \"expert\". And in the vast majority, our conclusions turn out to be correct.

Hi Friend, that was a lot of reading😳  'the elephant in the room' How do these kremies get their feet under the table is it money and power? I think Ukraine saw too much in the way of interference during Yanokovich era . I was aware of the 'protesters' shooting themselves' argument. Moscow has invaded this time in clear sight and is losing in every way. I am aware of the two Ukrainians and three political parties argument. My father dealt a lot with issues of division within the diaspora.  There comes a point where delusion and paranoia paralyse going forward. It is really tough but if anyone can work it out it has to be Ukrainians. The reporters of the articles you sent had their feet in two camps. What do you think of Timothy Snyder?  He says Ukraine is the hope for humanity. No small deal 😉🇺🇦.

Protestants did not shoot by themselves - I spent the whole winter on the Maidan in those days and I know well who shot - the main murders were committed by the mercenaries of Yanukovych's gang.

Timothy Snyder is a good person and so far he has done quite useful work and probably opened the eyes of many Westerners about Ukraine. Of course, we do not fully agree with his interpretation of history in some aspects, such as the fact that it was the Scandinavians who formed our statehood into a nation - the ancestors of the Ukrainians and Ruthenians existed long before the Scandinavians on our territory, but, in general, he speaks very close to the truth. YET - we now very clearly define who is who and who sits down at the same table and takes a selfie with whom. Western friends of Ukraine should be vigilant about this if they want to preserve a good memory for themselves.

"There is not much I can say to this Friend. Ukraine needs to win the war or mortally wound moscow, they are the seven headed hydra of Greek mythology. Am not in disagreement with you. Feeling deflated.

"We will win because we are hardened and can fight several wars at once for our independence - both externally and internally. Everything will be as it should be. We have no desolation, because we knew from the beginning who we were dealing with.

            "text" : "Thought you'd enjoy this joke. 🥴 

He's good at reporting fires 🔥 bavovna. 😁 otherwise I don't have contact. I like his incendiary tweets.

Yes, I also review his information on fires from time to time.  I will tell you more, Dmytro, - I saw with my own eyes more than once how our pro-Russian powerful people, who were recruited and controlled, including by the branch of the Russian Orthodox Church in Ukraine, invited  \"elite priests\" from Russia to conduct such ceremonies with their new palaces-cottages, Maybachs and Bentleys. It was a so-so fashion and at the same time a sign of belonging to the \"caste of the chosen\".

The so-called \"Russian Orthodoxy\" has absolutely nothing to do with Christianity or faith. This is a set of shamanic rites with admixtures of voodoo philosophy under the guise of distorted, hypertrophied decorative elements on a Christian theme.

I know all about the satanic orthodox cult ,their saints are Rasputin, Lenin, Stalin, yagoda, yezhov, beria, kaganovic who they  murdered. I was commissioned by consul gen of Scotland (Bogdan Yaremenko) back in 2008 to create a commemorative piece for the anniversary of Holodomor. Murder of priesthood in Ukraine and Kobzars. Have you come across Josyf Slipyi ? (am sure you have)?  This caused division even in 1970 in the diaspora community in England at the time I was too young to understand significance. Have pamphlet you might be interested in?

Oh BTW it's called Portrait of Evil. .on Youtube

"Yes, this Russian Orthodox Church has only now begun to surrender positions, and for almost three decades, it has been actively promoting Moscow's narratives and recruiting agents all over the world.  I know a little about Joseph the Blind, but I have never met him in person.  Dmitry, forgive me a little because of my poor knowledge of English - maybe I can't understand the meaning of some expressions in an ironic or humorous form - what did you mean by the phrase about YouTube?",

I wouldn't have thought you'd have met Josyf Slipyi he was imprisoned for nineteen years in gulag. He was catholic archbishop of Ukraine who would not convert to razzia'/orthodoxy. He died in 1984. The commemorative piece is called 'Portrait of Evil' it is on my YouTube channel.  That is not ironic😉😉",

                "reactionKey" : "agree"

I wish you a good day, Dmytro!. Today in Ukraine is celebrated the day of cathedral unity.

I’ll need to translate, this,🤔😉 Zelensky granting citizenship to people outside of Ukraine today is good? I can apply then💖💛💙 😀

                "reactionKey" : "agree",

I am glad if you decide to make this choice, as long as we have a law on the possibility of dual citizenship.  It's just that these appeals are not the first.  I do not incline you to pessimism, but since I have considerable life experience in Ukraine, I cannot be a blind fantasist.

We are under no illusion, Zelensky is on a tight rope at home and abroad he has the appeal 😀 remember Timoshenko, poroshenko, yanokovich 😵‍💫🕷️ the war has to be won !!! I’m not as daft as I look🏴‍☠️👀  we appreciate what you are saying and insights. 💛💙

                "reactionKey" : "agree",

I don't think you're stupid, Dmitry!. How could you think that?. And I admit that almost the entire pool of former Ukrainian so-called \"politicians\" is a community built on betrayal and corruption.  The fact that Zelensky does not belong to such a pool is the only reason why Ukrainians perceive him in the hope of fundamental changes - from the rule of a rotten pseudo-elite to the dominance of law, respect for man and justice in Ukraine.  Therefore, we will criticize if necessary and praise - where necessary, but not to create a cult of personality.

I know Friend , don't be too hard, you sound like father😀 but he was always right. He died before Zelensky was around and shortly after Crimea was annexed. We always look behind the nice 'scenery’. There is no wizard of Oz.  Over here he comes across as a brilliant passionate orator. Pootin💩 looks like (wanker)loser, but I know razzia' has a factory full of replacements👀🙄😁. They have never been in so much danger as now we just need to kick the stool.

Now I understand that you understand everything correctly, my friend!. In important matters, you need to be firm and principled - these are our conditions for the survival and existence of the country, because the age of unprincipledness and spinelessness has passed.  Therefore, do not criticize me too much for my harshness - I am a very soft-spoken person by nature, but now I need to be firm.

I understand the soft voice and resolute steadfastness😉. Yes, this time because of principle, Ukraine has the upper hand . The Rashists look like a savage debauched rabble of Rasputinist flagellants. 🙄😁💛💙

                "reactionKey" : "agree"

I agree with you. Katsaps, along with their oversized golem, are hollow inside and carry no coherent idea or meaning, and their traditional amoral savagery, mistrust, and thirst for violence and mayhem already works against them.

Exactly right there is no soul or mystery, time to burn Dostoevsky . They are just savages and we can all see it. BTW Friend , 'Joseph Conrad 'the writer has some brilliant quotes about the nation of golems. See if you can find them .

Yes, I found several notes and articles about the life and work of Józef Theodor Konrad Kozenjowski. and about this collection of books as well.  His work is quite widely represented here in Ukraine.

That's right I'm sure, he was born in Ukraine .

Heart of Darkness is really about them though it is set in Africa.

                "reactionKey" : "agree",

Found a review of the \"nation of golems\" with an explanation of this concept and a disclosure of the content of the work, but I did not find the apoka of the books themselves in his access.  I will read the review - thank you for this information.

Hoping you are all right 👍 we see the effff cunts are attacking Ukraine ?  The day after that demon Lazarov 👺 attends a security council meeting. 💛💙❤️

Thank you, friend Dmitro! 🤝✊. I do not worry about myself - I am very sorry for the victims and the dead.  Who is Lazarov? Maybe you meant Lavrov?. To be honest, the issues of global war and peace are not being resolved in these meaningless institutions today.  I have a certain skepticism about the general European support, because the old Europe came to its senses too late and will be concerned, above all, with its own needs, as long as this trashy political show of the Trumpists continues in the States.  Although, there is an option that, taking advantage of the political disorder in the States, some conscious circles, in this way, force Europe to wake up and stop hoping for America.  All this is interesting to think about and discuss, but Ukrainians are currently dying every day while demagogues and political impotents invent new excuses for themselves.

Glad that you are safe and impervious to razz. Terror. America is the spoilt shit hole that it is, it will die of boredom or they will all shoot each other. However you are right the silver lining is Europe will have to wake up and act whether to preserve itself or assist Ukraine, America cannot be relied on look at WWII . Today is an 'interesting' astrological conjunction , a low point hoping it comes to raSSia sooner.  Dmytro.👍💛💙

Here is the link to show we tried to warn a long time ago, in 2011, and too kind now. Was taken down for 2 years. . https://t.co/b9AK6DSSKs

Great satire, Dmytro!. Probably, you, as a creative person, can predict and predict future events, unlike people with systemic thinking.

Yes but I have the gift of prophecy but no one is listening  😂 (Cassandra)

I understand you very much.

 

              

This is a shaman who sees the future. I hope - you are not offended?

well you have a sense of humour too. Not offended, but I must admit I don't look a bit like this .😀😉who is the shaman?  Is it AI generated?

I did not set out to achieve a portrait resemblance to you, especially since I created this shaman two months ago. It’s just that the image of a prophet in the form of a man - suits you a little more than the image of Cassandra

                "reactionKey" : "funny"

I'll take that as a compliment 

Apparently, I ended up being tactless.

Not really😀😉🕷️

Keep, then, a seer from the ancient Olmec tribe - she is, of course, not Cassandra, but without a costume with horns. 

        

   

You're not the new leader of the armed forces🧐?

Unfortunately.  😒. Only the chairman of the board of the cooperative of reptilian freemasons, on a part-time basis. 😜

I thought so the Illuminati boss.👏😀

Who told you this? 

 

Hi Friend,a quick question about Yuri Dombrovsky, do you know him?

Hello, Dmitro!  I have no idea who this is.

Yes, he has cropped up they have tried to hide his existence. He spent nineteen years prison Almaty. Wrote extensively about terror, thirties. Born in musk.  wrote The faculty of Useless knowledge, The Monkey has come for his skull. 

Dmitro, this is quite informative, but I don't quite understand who you are talking about.

Pani  Yuri Dombrovskii a writer erased from orc history non katsaps or vatnik. Wrote extensively, eh. The faculty of Useless knowledge. I thought you may be able to retrieve more information.

P.s. The Keeper of Antiquities

Thanks for red piano tweet BTW. it was Elton John's piano bequeathed to Albert Hall. Have you seen Stephen Komarnyskyij's thread? Very good, duzhe dobre.🙏🌹👍

Sorry mate, didn't see your post right away. I had an information-rich day and night here yesterday. I will rest a little and write you back.",

I really hoped your info rich😋🥳day was a good one. Much steam 💨was released all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy😉👍(The Shining)

Good day, Dmitry! ✌️. Surely, there are such periods when it is necessary to advance certain theses.  And who exactly is sad Jack in this case?

Here (where I am currently) periodically, but 24/7, almost every day, the windows shake from the blast waves - so, sometimes, you don't even need to read the news about Russian shelling one more time. It's a lot of fun. So mate, what did you mean about Jack?

It is an old English proverb - James Howell's Proverbs (1659). It means that too much focus on one's work and not enough leisure time can be unhealthy.  It was famously used in the film, The Shining.

I got the 'wrong end of the stick', I thought you had taken time out to let your 'hair down'. I am using a lot of colloquialisms. In future I will use the apostrophe so you can see a phrase or word because translate does not pick these up.  I am really sorry to hear you are experiencing bomb blasts all the time, where are you?😥😥

Yes, there is such a tendency, but it is not work, but a kind of struggle, while I was free from the other.  Besides, we had bad weather two days ago and it was only yesterday and today that it finally thawed and warmed up, so I made good use of the time.  How are you, mood?

In my country, the war, my friend, and the issue of approaching victory will always come first, until we win.  As long as I'm not at the front, I have to help our defenders as much as I can, to the best of my ability.  Moreover, it is not possible to fully rest and enjoy life, knowing that at this very moment someone was killed by katsaps.

I am not making light of your situation and I realise this an existential moment in Ukraine's history. We have nothing to compare and appreciate you and your time. Currently my mood is subdued after the concerts in London, however today we started work on a project for the Edinburgh Festival about Holodomor. Let me know if there is anything we can do, hope your spirits are high and victory will be soon.

"That's great, my friend! I want to wish you success and inspiration! By the way, are there any announcements of this upcoming concert yet? I would be happy to share this news (if it is timely and appropriate in your opinion).  I hope you do not take offense at me? Sometimes, I can be too sharp, because my main activity is not public and there are often unpleasant news in it, which I sometimes cannot control.  Nevertheless, everything is going well, especially since spring is coming soon - it is a beautiful time and a symbol of renewal. I recently looked for that video of you playing and Elton John's red grand piano and couldn't find it myself.  One head is not enough for everything.",

No need to apologise, 😉. . spring coming can't wait either the reason you may not have found red piano vid. Hazel posted.   . I'll repost it , and, I will let you know when the event is finalised and any other good news.👍💛💙🇺🇦

Thank you for your understanding.  And I will wait for a video with your music.

Hello, Dmitry!  My feed contains a lot of news about the sinking of a Russian ship.  It is gratifying that European rhetoric about the defeat of Russia and the need to hit targets on their territory has finally become audible.  American Democrats have proven themselves to be weaklings, wreaking havoc with their painful friendship with Moscow, and when it comes time to answer for the results, they are helpless.  We have drawn conclusions.

Absolutely , Friend. I always check your feed it doesn't come naturally. I did not want to get too excited last night when some of the 'fellas' posted. Democraps will face a reckoning . Hopefully we are not going to be reliant on their' support it has proved worthless and spineless. Slava Ukrayina",

Hi Friend hope you are fit and well, just to let you know BBC aired documentary of Ukrainian brigade near Kupyiansk last night near Railway and gas pipeline. Harrowing but all filming by soldier's bodycam. 💙💛🇺🇦🙏

"That's right, Dmitry.  It is very difficult for the boys now and they are very short of weapons.

I understand everything, Dmitry.  We will not silence the mess - we are not Russians.

Absolutely Friend , all the makings of a politician , agree with what you say. The decision will be Ukrainians only for a change

I'm glad you have a sober experience -  the patience of Ukrainians is not unlimited.

Agree, patience is not a  limitless resource.

I build my attitude about the future not with empty hopes, but with the help of sober assumptions. Dmytro, Ukrainians are tired of believing, because the more they believe, the more they are deceived.  The time has come to change blind faith to calculation.

From Ukraine, they continue to create some kind of mythical country from Netflix, with the help of the \"Ministry of Truth\" - according to Orwell.  And this fictional image is completely untrue.  Foreigners perceive Ukraine and Ukrainians precisely from these fables, which are produced by a team of political technologists most of whom at one time studied and worked in Russia and use precisely Russian methods of lies and propaganda.  

All of what you say I understand, Ukrainian hopes are dashed against the rocks each time. This cycle has to end. This time we can see what is happening, those that choose to follow Ru. Narrative are condemned to be next herd of cattle. I appreciate your view now the balance between gloom, despair and hope fluctuates, I think of the Divine Comedy Dante. Where does the personal journey and cultural journey converge ? The facts are that Ukraine and other 'countries are experiencing what Ru. Has to offer, death and destruction. It is a wakeup call, we shall see who is awake. 

We have lived in relative peace 'our loss' has been relative. We can only express what we know and the rest is up to you to inform us. Our opinions are not set in stone. My experience of Ukraine is second-hand, from my father, I had no direct contact with relatives still huge chunks are missing, especially the present. The shopping channel is all our scourge. BTW the film shown here was called Enemy in the woods'. I'll look at link you sent.😁❄️snowing here today. A bit of levity goes a long way.

Political circus is everywhere, we do not live next to Mordor and our only wartime political leader Churchill was experienced seventy years ago. You have lost friends and family now?

"Some of my friends died, yes, but that doesn't matter.  We are people, citizens, and not the herd that these Russophile insolent buffoons are trying to create out of Ukrainians, who have never served in the army themselves, nor cheered for the country.  Dmytro, I do not react emotionally to events, but quite critically, therefore, you do not need to reassure me. People are losing real lives.

We get Netflix here and we take it with a pinch of salt. This is an example of American culture.  have you seen British or European TV or film? Twenty days in Mariupol' made the Oscars . Send some examples of 'netflix ' Ukrainian portrayals.

I have the impression that you do not want to understand me and you are comfortable in a fictional reality regarding what is happening in Ukraine.  The film about Mariupol - yes, this is part of the truth, you choose to joke about Netflix. And it's sad.  You know, most of the Canadian Ukrainian diaspora, we hardly communicate with them. Why? Because they believe in their fictional Ukraine and have no desire to see the real one. It is more comfortable for them. But this is hypocrisy, not love or real support.

No, no, we rely on you to tell us, we do not know really, what is happening other than information on  the war, and that is limited too. I joke for my sanity ... and you mentioned Netflix and that is trashy American TV.  There is no disagreement.

Here is drinking to you and Ukraine today🥂 as it's Easter here . I know it will be in Ukraine 5th May . By then you will have destroyed the orc nation of Mordor🙏💙💛

I wish you a good time in good company, Dmytro!. Katsapstan (Russia) is the Mecca of anti-aesthetics in everything.

You're not joking! . No sense of aesthetic. They copy miss the point.

Moreover, they distort the essence, poisoning it with their imperial autocratic poison. And they know how to do this very well.

The films were a joy to watch , I hope the garden is the same. I saw st. Andrivsky church in 2006 and understand more the significance,now.

Hello, Dmitro!  Thank you for writing back and I'm glad you enjoyed the videos.  Live, this place is much more spacious and interesting, especially in the summer.  Andriiivskyi Uzviz, Landscape Alley, the surrounding parks on the hills of Kyiv - these are my most favorite places, since childhood.  This is actually Kyiv itself.   As young students, we spent whole days and nights soaking up the spirit of Kyiv, along with the music of street musicians and helping ourselves to young, dry wine, which we drank a little too much at the time ;)) In the video, these places are almost empty, but usually there are quite a lot of people and children  And when I'm sad at heart, or I don't have anything to talk about, I usually go there. Being a Kyivan is when you can suddenly meet familiar, recognizable people, artists, scientists, cultural figures, or even complete strangers, but very nice people and spend a day, or even two days in their company)) and I very much miss that rowdy time and this opportunity to feel all the joys of such an impromptu again. Thank you, Dmytro, for writing your review, I wish you a pleasant and easy day, my friend!

Well ,it is interesting that you say it is a place meeting minds and contemplation. When we arrived at the St. And., a young man dressed in Cossack gear was playing a bandura at the foot of the steps. That evening we went to a really posh restaurant in the street that goes down to the big square and halfway through meal I was asked to play piano . Some Ru. Gave me a lot of rubles/hryvni after I finished playing . It's a pity I didn't know you then!

I am very glad that you had to visit this place.  St. Andrew's Church - yes, it is a legendary place, although it is famous not for the church itself, but for the places around it, which are a kind of informal center of Kyiv. Have you re-watched the old movie \"Chasing Two Hares\"?  It was filmed in the 60s and years in these places.  Perhaps it exists with an English translation.  If I find it, I will send you the link.  This artistic, funny film is a comedic excursion into Kyiv life at the very beginning of the 20th century, even before the Bolsheviks.

reactionKey" : "agree"

Yes, this street on a slope is Andriivskyi Uzviz. And that expensive restaurant was owned by the Russians in those days and they left there a long time ago, thank God, and now there is an equally attractive restaurant in this space, but not with exorbitant prices for the elite. I once visited this restaurant a couple of times, but then I decided that it is possible to spend money much more interestingly and profitably, instead of eating a steak for 80 dollars with a salad for 60 dollars)). It's just that I know the surrounding places where you can eat much tastier food and chat with much more interesting people, without too much pathos and arrogance. Here is my photo selection, which was taken last year on this old street, where art workshops, art galleries, cafes and restaurants are located, and where street artists exhibit and street musicians play. So this place is an informal Mecca of Kyiv, where you can be yourself and meet free people. It is a place where there are no ranks and statuses, only human beings.   

Somehow, in the winter, with the help of memory, imagination and the AI platform, I created a selection of 20-30 pictures with the life of the world of Andriivskyi Uzvoz.

 

So far I have found this movie only in Ukrainian", Chasing Two Hares

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRY-PQQVboU"

Ok . Will look later and cast onto TV.🥰

Nice pics, so you know this restaurant? I think I paid that night but earned a bit playing. Full of katsaps. It was a magical evening .  Walked down a cobbled street to large square with a large white building. Something to do with Peter the great prick.

Dmytro, I know that in 2006 there was only one very expensive restaurant on Andriivskyi Uzvoz, and it belonged to katsaps, just like other fashionable restaurants nearby. Moscow, in the person of its representatives, then grabbed almost all the surrounding commercial real estate and in the long run planned to destroy the free spirit of this place by building its hotels instead of the historic buildings.  So, it's hard for me to be wrong about which restaurant you went to : )). What exactly do you associate with Tsar Peter of Moscow? - I don't think I understood very well. Do you mean the name of the restaurant or something else? You know, I also have many different memories from the past, but now I perceive them differently.  Katsaps were not supposed to rule in Kyiv, and the fact that they are present everywhere in our country was a sign of the then slow, inconspicuous ovation of Kyiv and the country.  All this pro-Russian bacchanalia with their active capture of our city space continued in Kyiv until 2014 - before the events on the Maidan."

Right , it was 2007? , the building was in the square,  it was a  residence of Peter the great or that is what I was told. Thank God the katsaps own nothing in Kyiv ? Now.

In general, the house (the house of Ya. Bykosky) that gossips associate with the name of Peter the First is not on the mountain and not near the St. Andrew's Church, but at the very bottom, already in Podil itself.  By the way, this story is made up, probably by the katsaps themselves.  

That's where I meant,at the bottom there is a large square. Anyway it's not his now 😭

If or when you decide to come next time - it is better to play not in an expensive restaurant for the chosen ones, but for all people who are willing to listen to music.  We have such a tradition - to display an old piano not far from St. Andrew's Church, right on the street, under an old tree, where our street musicians, who are actually quite interesting composers, but still choose to play in the open air, come to play their works. This is the culture and tradition of Kyiv. Similar to the tradition of other European cities. 

I am sure that the people of Kyiv will like your works and your skillful playing.

I hope so too, I am sure they will appreciate it even if I end up playing in the toilets.  We will have to wait until these bastards are pushed back into the sea🙏🥂

Do not doubt - we will drive it out. 

I would respond to your posts ,however X has locked my account😇😭👀😀

Oh really?  I can only congratulate you on this, Dmytro!  Today, in our time of post-truth rule and content distortion, this is rather a merit than a drawback!  In fact, I wish you a speedy exit from these stupid restrictions, I too once had such a privilege from the crooked Elon Musk and his pocket administrators.

Still restricted at the moment ,saw post about pris. OUN members . am fizzing about that and the bomb in Kharkiv. As I write this Hazel informed about Crimea, am hoping Ru blood shit running through the streets. BTW enjoy post midsummer.

Hello, Dmitro!  All I could understand is that you are still under network restrictions.  All the rest of the text when translated merged into an incomprehensible mix with references to completely different topics.  If you have the opportunity, please write about what you just mentioned, but in more detail.  Thank you in advance, my friend!  I wish you a nice day!

I was just commenting on the anniversary of the killing of OUN members on this day. I went on to say that Crimea was under attack with graphic references to what I hoped would happen to katsaps . 🤗🙏👍💙💛💛🇺🇦

And, yes, of course, Crimea will now feel \"belonging to Russia\", in full.  Yes, it is necessary to constantly remind that the crimes of Muscovy are not limited only to Putinism.  The so-called good Russians and other numerous hidden Kremlin agents jump out of their pants - so much they want to assure everyone that the entire criminal Russian essence is only the fault of Putin and the Putinists.  Damn imperial hypocrites!

Sorry, but I couldn't resist sharing this slightly raunchy, but in my opinion, quite funny and very apt meme with you. 

Don't apologise it really makes the point and hits the 🎯 😃. Talking of targets atacms making good progress on Crimea.

P.S. Dagestan rebellion kicking off nicely. 🙏🙏 Tomorrow is another day goodnight and sweet 🧁 dreams 💥🇷🇺🔥

The shovel is the best method . On that note my dad always said the Germans gave you a gun, but ruskies (red army) gave you a shovel he made his choice...accordingly.

It is noticeable in your appearance.  In a good sense of this meaning.",

You'll be pleased with our election Farage party on three seats. Galloway,fekin piece of 💩💩lost lost his 👍👏

Yes, I see, my friend.  I hope that the 13 votes of his party will not spoil the general political course of the country.  If you have time, please write to me how the UK government can be different in general for the country itself.  and in the external arena.

"Farage got only three seats, not thirteen. Thirteen was a projection. So they are insignificant. How do you want me to explain?.  Basically there are three home nations , Northern Ireland ,  Scotland , Wales . England is the rest and the biggest with most population.

The election result was good here but not for Scotland, now France has diluted Le pen(merde) .America next. .WTF 😒? A black day for Kyiv yesterday. . Keeping eyes peeled.

Yes, difficult times. I have my own theory, based on years of experience and observation, as to why this all happens and why it happens the way it does.  At least with regard to Ukraine, I came to the conclusion that, perhaps to some extent, our permanent structural state problem is also part of a general problem belonging to the same topic. Russia is part of a powerful international mafia that has spread its tentacles everywhere, including in developed Western countries. The actions of this mafia can also be seen everywhere - the helplessness of the sanctions policy in relation to Russia, the helplessness of international jurisdiction, the stupor in recognizing a terrorist country as such, and the transfer of the decision of important security issues to an unofficial level, due to the complete blockade of official world institutions.  

What is happening in Europe is, in part, also the consequences of the activities of this international mafia and Russia in particular, when it manipulates public consciousness with the help of controlled, pocket-sized \"rights\" and \"lefts\", shaking and weakening the West from the inside. Many representatives of the political and business elites in our country and in Western countries are, in one way or another, part of this mafia and they are not in a position to go against a bigger force, even if they wanted to. There are separate, truly independent units that can resist, but they always end up in the minority. The world will have to wage war with this mafia, in the form of Russia, its satellite countries, traitors among the political elite and among high officials, bribed mass media, certain business corporations, etc.  It is necessary to prepare for the battle, it will not be easy. 

Totally agree. Not easy to explain to others who go down the mafia created conspiracy routes. People get lost down the many holes but it's as though they understand something is wrong but they can't figure it out.

Most people are arranged in such a way that they cannot withstand the burden of reality and they constantly need to be constantly convinced of something \"good and good\", like a baby to feel the warmth of its mother next to it.  Mafia systems have learned well to create such \"islands\" in which most people find it easier and more peaceful to be engaged in their small, inconspicuous affairs, within the permitted limits.  But, this is an illusion that pursues the goal of not interfering with society in the work of these systems and in removing a potential threat.  In Ukraine, too, very few people understand this, because the mafia has created a large and extensive infrastructure that feeds people's belief in this illusion in which they exist.  This great world war which is already going on is not only a civilizational war in character, it is also a war of humans against parasites, and humans will have to take part in it, whether they want it or not.  Usual reality can change very quickly, I and all of us can see this for ourselves.

I fancy an island at the moment, it is all to clear at this time. Better to know  and be aware , these parasites have always been with us and they adapt according to Machiavellian theory . They seek power and wealth at someone else's expense. Off to join the great universal Jungian subconscious  . 🤗

"I hope you sleep too ,sometimes🙏😉

Dmytro, hello! How are you doing? What is the weather?. We have scorching heat and no wind.  Sorry for bothering you, but I wanted to ask you, do you know anything about the fact that Great Britain allegedly forbade Ukraine to hit the territory of Russia with its weapons, as reported by the Telegraph newspaper? The fact is that for a long time it was believed that there was no such ban and this was presented as the determination of Great Britain in contrast to the indecision of the USA and Germany.

We believe our new Prime Minister gave permission but the US took it away though that is not confirmed. It seems Starmer said yes on way to the NATO meeting and then no on way back.  The US are playing silly games with your lives. 😪😡. I heard you had a heat wave. Very sorry also short of electricity?. We have been cold. .0 degrees at night. It seems everything is phucked. . The hospital attack was disgusting. Another friend knew the hospital and had his nephew treated there.  What can we do?

I don't know what normal people can do in this situation.  I am increasingly getting the impression that from the outside, the international policy of the West is increasingly resembling a symposium in a psychiatric hospital, among sick patients, in the midst of a spring outbreak of mental illnesses.  

This situation, in my opinion, will correct itself and manifest itself in reality.  As for the hospital, this is just one of many crimes that happen almost every day, but it happened in the centre of Kyiv and was noticed and spread in the media.  I am satisfied that two years ago I was disillusioned with Western politics and now I understand the attitude towards us from the politicians of many Western countries. Because the truth is always better than an illusion.  The only thing I can say is that if the countries of the West are not playing a deceptive show for Russia, but are in fact so indecisive, then this is a great signal for Putin and his maniacal henchmen to intensify the hybrid war against the same West, taking advantage of such indecision and misunderstanding of the scale of the threat to them everyone already today.  But, I still have (no, not hope), I assume the advantage that this summit was a game for the Kremlin, and all the real decisions are made behind the scenes, not for the public. 

At least, there is a logic in this not to frighten the American voters and Western societies and at the same time to oppose Moscow, pretending to be helpless. Strategic uncertainty - if it was used by both the West and us - then it would be good.  But for this we must be sure that the desired scenario of victory and not betrayal is realized.  I still believe that Europe and the West in general do not want to lose, because it is simply senseless and has irreversible consequences in the future. The stakes are too high for indecision. But perhaps I overestimate the role of logic and common sense in international politics.

I totally agree, America is the fly in the ointment because they have an election . Europe does get it and Britain definitely does. We believe they are not going to give the game away. They won't give up on Ukraine.

P.S. there are a few infiltrators and clowns  that try to disrupt like any psychiatric clinic . See Aleksandr Boichenko In a State of Siege.

Good morning Friend trust that you well , I wanted to ask of your opinion on yanis varoufakis ?

Hello, Dmitry, I still have no opinion about this Yanis, since I have no idea who he is )))

Right ,he is Greek for a start was a finance minister . Defended Debt laden Greek economy from German creditors. He is a philosopher economist , espouses the theory of techno feudalism the end of capitalism , admirer of  Maynard Keynes . Good so far  😀 he is on the other hand a harsh critic of the EU. A leftie . Was very vocal during Brexit here for Britain to leave the union. Has said Ukraine cannot win the war, has never criticised Putin. And says EU is in bed with America trying to extend war. He thinks Putin would discuss possible of gradual integration into Europe. but thinks NATO membership for Ua. would be very bad. Mentions the Ru speakers in Donbass. We should leave the door open. His strategy is wait for this... "To end conflict in a manner which would guarantee Ukraine that which Finland, Austria and Sweden had during the Cold war - which is the right to decide their own politics, (and) to grow economically. They were not NATO members but still they were under international guarantees by both NATO and the Warsaw pact that they would not be touched - that would be an ideal scenario for a Ukraine that really wants to prosper, that wants to get out of the misery of war and subjugation \". .  Umm really really.

Judging by what you told about him - he is a big asshole.  The EU can and should be criticized, at least for the fact that, in addition to the economic union, some handfuls of Euro-parliamentarians, who are actually working to divide Europe, constantly promote total multiculturalism, which washes out national characteristics in people, and consumerist globalism, in its most harmful forms, and, also, for the fact that they have already created a migration chaos, when in this mixture it is now impossible to distinguish real and potential terrorists and scum from normal and peaceful Muslims. Therefore, the EU can and should be constantly subjected to objective criticism, but those who oppose the EU in general are today on the side of world evil, along with Russia, China, Iran and other dictatorial regimes.  Therefore, how else can I relate to Janis and people like him?  But why did you mention him?  Maybe I unknowingly shared his post somewhere or accidentally supported one of his narratives?

Well , Friend couldn't have put it better. To me he is an 'intellectual 'wolf in sheep's clothing. This cunt has so much appeal and he was trending which is why I asked you and he is Greek?!!  As we both know Greece and Cyprus have been crawling with Moscow cockroaches, does it simply boil down to money or is there out of the old Byzantine /Orthodox link?

Yes, you are right, after the defeat in the Russo-Turkish war of the last century, Muscovy immediately began to develop alternative geopolitical centers of influence in the Black Sea and Mediterranean regions.  Greece and, accordingly, Cyprus became one of such centers of influence. Of course, the so-called \"orthodoxy\" served as a pretext for expansion and at the same time as a channel for huge political bribes to build an agent network.  This Russian doctrine on the capture of the Black Sea and the Mediterranean has not changed either during the Soviet era or now.  The Second World War and the three decades after the collapse of the USSR slightly slowed down this progress, although it did not stop.  And this state of affairs is a great tactical geopolitical loss of Europe - to have in its belly the Muscovite kublo under the guise of religion and the offshore zone.  Europeans, like Americans, are mysteriously short-sighted and infantile when they believe that only at the expense of pennies and technical and economic development they can easily resist the onslaught of Moscow barbarians.  In addition, most European politicians do not understand that if excessive aggression is a sign of wildness and ill-manneredness for them, then for Muscovites aggression as such is a traditional sign of the presence of useful qualities thanks to which they managed to seize such huge territories in Eurasia. Europeans lack the skills  to turn on a predatory, cold entity instead of constantly being a confused herbivorous creature with sawed off horns.  Greece will still have to be washed away from pests, and so will Cyprus.

As always the long answer and totally right, love the analogy at the end. Europeans lacking cold predatory entity, and there in fails to grasp a nature that is alien to them. They judge Ru rats by their own standards. The herbivores facing the large reptile predator. It puts me in mind of the Komodo dragon 🐉🐲🦖

Hi Friend ,hope you enjoyed opening ceremony - bread and Circus'. Can you explain significance of Vsevolod P. of K. And adoption of st. MICHAEL saint of Kyiv. and the absorption of title into Romanov shit.🧐🥂",

Hello, Dmitry!  I did not follow the ceremony, as I was on a business trip and only occasionally looked briefly at Twitter when the Internet appeared.  I just arrived and now I need to get some sleep.  I didn't understand your question very well - please write in more detail, because I can't read minds))) I will answer you after sleep.", 

Sleep well! I will write more (riddles) soon. 😂

Prince of Kyiv Vsevolod. how did Ru scum assimilate him  into romanov crime family? Or is it just made up (Ruric dynasty) . .I think this might be a worse  question.🧐🤣

"It is no secret that Rus is the proto-state of Kyiv - that is why the bandit leaders of Zalyssia - that is, in the future - of the Moscow principality, simply brazenly appropriated this foreign name in order not to appear in the eyes of the outside world as full of empty liars and impostors. tried to appropriate a part of its history and the glory of some prominent princes. What was the relationship of Prince Vsevolod of Rus to the Moscow principality? He repelled Muscovite attacks on the fortress in Vyshgorod, near Kyiv, only a few times.  The figure of the so-called \"Rurik\" is not confirmed by any historical document or annals and is probably fictional, or one that the ancient chroniclers endowed an insignificant figure with non-existent greatness. In ancient times, the invention of legends was often used to create a reputation and give some \"weight\" and \"respectability\".  Regardless of whether this mysterious \"Rurik\" really existed or not, this story has nothing to do with Zalesi Muscovites, as it is a legend of the connections between the Scandinavians and the princes of the proto-state of Kyiv.  

Already after the destruction of the Rus', the Moscow princes in internecine wars for rule called themselves \"Rurikovichs\" (this is an artificial, mythological surname invented by the Muscovites, appropriated in order to create alleged \"connections\" with the Scandinavians, who at a certain period administered in the ancient Kievan Rus'), although whose true roots came from a family of Turkic nomads who engaged in racketeering in the then Moscow lands and eventually seized power in Muscovy.  Moscow bandits tried to create a pedigree for themselves - in a word, just as they continue to do it now.

Well thanks Friend I think that clears it up . So Ivan the terrible is also a terrible liar will need to RIP up encyclopedia Britannica and wiki too.

Of course, Dmitrо. The so-called Ivan the Terrible was of Turkic origin and was an Asian, he had no relation to Rus. This fact is confirmed by anthropological studies of specialists, and he called himself \"Rurikovich\" in order to distract the foreign community from the fact that he is an ordinary, rootless marauder-usurper and impostor. 

                 "expanded" : "https://garmatny.blogspot.com/2019/12/blog-post_14.html

Lovely I can now cite this with confidence , pooshkin next 

Ivan the Terrible was one of the first, but quite typical. the Moscow occupier and the leader of the marauders-catsaps, the same as Peter the First, their other tsars, Stalin or Putin. Totalitarian Moscow-centrism, as a management structure of a quasi-empire with barbaric traditions, constantly generates such monstrosities, which always act according to a general plan - feigned \"drczhba\" - hyboid wars - economic expansion - land grabbing - genocide - mass destruction of peoples, will always generate them and hereafter, unless crushed and destroyed forever.

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/350483244_Ivan_IV_and_the_Tatars

Pushkin is a plagiarist and a rhymesmith, a traitor to his fellow Decembrists and a royal serf who wrote odes to the tsar for the sake of flattering and returning to the club of other hypocritical noble serfs.  Why talk about him?",

I just thought I'd mention him we know someone who teaches Ru literature.

If you meet a Russophile, ask him what he knows about the great discovery of the \"great Russian scientist Lomonosov\", for example.  (I'll tell you a secret - this man did not create a single invention or serious scientific work in his entire life, and his mission was to invent a myth about Great Russian greatness and to remove and interfere with German and Dutch scientists who wrote the true history).

Not surprised, Lomonosov looks like Voltaire's brother.

By order of the Moscow autocrats, he had to create a myth about the so-called \"Russian science\" and \"history\" and sat in the library of Western scientific books that Tsar Peter the First bought while in Europe and found inventions of ancient Greek, Italian, German, Arab, and Indian scientists and passed them off as his own.  Then he was tasked with creating a \"Russian Academy of Sciences\" which included exclusively foreign scientists and pseudo-scientific fraudsters, wrote odes to the tsarina and received awards and diplomas and titles for his alleged \"services to the state\".  Everything is traditional as always. Plagiarism, appropriation, copyright infringement, etc.

That's the Ru's only tradition, plagiarism appropriation copy. etc  - genocide. Somebody posted about when the murderers return hope to Mordor Ru will be in a death spiral unable to function in any normal societal sense.

Unfortunately, the majority confuses the concept of Rus and the so-called \"Russia\", which are not identical.  Rus is the proto-state of Kyiv, which existed in the 9th-12th centuries and disappeared as such, which had the historical borders of modern central Ukraine, which had no traditions of autocracy, had no connection to Muscovy, and was part of Western European civilization. The so-called \"Russia\" is a foreign name of the proto-state of Kyiv, appropriated in the 17th century by the autocratic Muscovy, in order to pretend to be the legal successor.  It is better to call them correctly - Muscovites, because we in Ukraine have been separating these two concepts from each other for a long time.

It seems to me that there are too many metaphysical myths floating around Morrodor that have little to do with reality.  Someone has been writing for 15 years that Putin is terminally ill and about to die.  Someone writes that Moscow will destroy itself, someone nurtures the opinion that sanctions will destroy Moscow.  Someone generates theses that all that is needed is kill or somehow get rid of \"Putin's regime\" and everything will read perfectly again and eternal peace will come. . All these delusions serve only one purpose - to distract humanity from the real, practical destruction of the quasi-imperial structure of Moscow.  Of course, some of those who lost their brains in the war will commit atrocities and murders on a domestic level when they get home, but this in no way touches on the topic of destroying a quasi-empire. There and now, as always, all this exists in them - atrocities, murders, hatred, etc.

Yes Friend it is their life force - only lack of oxygen will do it. maybe 🤔

As long as there will be a control center in Moscow and Lubyanka - as a system that takes care of the security of this control center - so-called Russia will still exist, with all the consequences for everyone.  Everything is simple really. If there is a desire to stop the threat from the so-called \"Russia\", it is necessary to destroy its control center, at the structural level, and never allow it to be revived again, that's all. Everything is not so difficult as it is for the world.

The West, especially the USA, wanted to have a \"controlled order in the Euro-Asian region\", which was occupied by Moscow - the so-called \"Russia\", and in the end we all got an uncontrolled mess in the Western world. As long as the world agrees with the existence of such a \"system\" - we will have a constant threat and importer of hybrid and open wars, sabotage, terrorist attacks, mass murders, nuclear, chemical, biological threats, etc.  Destruction of the Moscow threat is a matter of consensus of progressive forces in the world. At the technical level, all this is quite easy to do.

Lubyanka prison  is like SPECTRE in James Bond. . Thirty thousand operatives were there  during Holodomor. .?

Lubyanka is not only a prison, it is Lubyanka Square in Moscow where the headquarters of the former tsarist guard, and later the Cheka, KGB, FSB, SVR and other special services are located. It is a guard dog of the quasi-imperial model of Moscow and a fomenter of worldwide chaos.

https://www.pismowidok.org/en/archive/2015/9-warsaw-moscow-monuments-of-transition/lubyanka-square-the-monument-of-an-unresolved-conflict.

A very good way to put it .  I knew that shits like Walter Duranty hung about there when he was correspondent for American daily 'Rags'.

For every famous foreigner or official, including ambassadors who visited or stayed in Russia, a folder called \"Case\" was immediately created in Lubyanka, then agents of the special services were dispatched to create corrupt connections or compromise, recruiters, under the guise of \"friends\" \" and other supervisors in the form of \"profile colleagues\", \"independent journalists\", prostitutes or women for relationships, etc.  It's always been like that and it's like that now. An appropriate approach was applied to each foreigner, and most of them in one way or another cooperated or still cooperate in one way or another with Lubyanka.

That is similar to Ian Fleming 's depiction - a mafia organisation.

Have just seen that kunt Sergey polunin , express his ruZZ  . .born in  Kherson and after everything . Supports pooshit , wants to work in USA because he is not made welcome 🤬🤬

Please my friend, I can't read your mind - who are you talking about? What the hell is Polunin? I do not understand you. Please provide some references so I'm not left guessing.",

Sorry Friend .  I am slightly deranged 🤣😁 we''ll send a link . sorry sorry 😔

Ah, I know this idiot who decided to advance in his career thanks to changing shoes from an ideological rashist. He's just an idiot. If only such idiots posed the entire threat, the war would have ended a long time ago. Dmytro, I haven't paid attention to individual insignificant Russian orcs for a long time - they don't affect anything and don't solve anything. They are just court cheap jesters who are not worth paying attention to, as far as I'm concerned.

Indeed Friend, he caused a stir here in Britain a few years ago when he was introduced as Ukrainian.  The youngest leading member of royal ballet ever. Such a waste of time and space, could have been a legend but chose to be a huge piece of shit💨💩💩💩

Perhaps this will offend you, Dmytro, but I have long since ceased to attribute pop artists, ballet artists, popular singers, musicians, etc., to the category of bearers of truth and decency. There are only certain people who have a heightened sense of empathy and justice, and this ability does not depend on a person's occupation.  The so-called \"people of art\" are no better and no worse than other people, and the myth that art makes a person greater is, rather, only a myth of the Renaissance.  I have been convinced of this constantly, since childhood, and I have had the opportunity to see for myself for ten years in a row as well. But, I was surprised that this half-breed was presented as a Ukrainian artist - why is there such a miracle all of a sudden? You can check quite easily that he did not have and does not have a friendly relationship with Ukraine, even more so, with modern Ukraine.  Are the majority in Great Britain so gullible that they swallow everything that is thrown into their mouths without checking and chewing?

Therefore, I do not see the need to somehow single out this Polunin from the rest of Muscovites. A typical buffoon who wanted to get more attention at the expense of his depopulation. he is one of hundreds and hundreds of thousands of such public jesters.  As for actors or artists, this category of people is more vulnerable to possible treason than others, because their profession constantly involves a game, that is, the ability to be dishonest for money, and this factor already reduces trust in such people from the beginning.

Totally agree with all you say Friend , we admired him a long time ago in 2007 though, at a time when Ukraine was a mystery to most people here. Yes so high profile people mattered , however puutnazi has changed that inadvertently, we can begin the dismantling of the Muscovite myth, piece by piece until it is seen as the shit hole it is. Then we will be able to dance on its grave. Wish I could fly an F16💨 . There will always be the gullible who salivate over celebrity. Artistry is blessed with idiots, better dead than read😚🤣

Are you coping ok with these fuckin bastards on your doorstep ? I really hope they all die . .soon every single one 🙏😀🌹

Yes, this cloaca operates in its unchanging style, but it will not have long left, if the USA does not save it, once again, again.

I also spend a lot of time in wild meadows, forests and the coast these days.  Dnipro and taking the opportunity to look for successful (twisted and non-standard) candidates for my future bonsai trees.

Nice selection of pictures, berry and mushrooms we're picking this weekend . Are you bonsai ING trees for real. The plants are very different to ours nice lichen. Is that slimy seaweed on the rock or dead orcs?  Sea or river?

This is because the water level in the Kyiv Reservoir has decreased (this is the Dnipro River, north of Kyiv, just a large reservoir and nowhere else can you see the opposite bank).  And these are boulders overgrown with algae, but, yes, you are right, they look a bit like . . some kind of water-swimming sloths.  Although, if it will be dead katsapas - it will also be useful, although it will look less aesthetically)) 

I have been gaining experience in the art of bonsai for three years and I have about 50 different plants forming in nature.  Another 20 are growing in pots, on the estate, near the country house.  I'm still training and improving, but I like this kind of art more than interior design, to be honest 😊

Really, fifty and a country estate ? Without being sycophantic I love bonsai and have none 😳. Had one once and all the leaves fell off😅

Hope you liked Callanish standing stones.

Very beautiful scenery.  You are really lucky!  In my area, I really miss steep terrain, that is, mountains and rocks.  As for bonsai, it was my attraction to aesthetics and a way to keep my psyche in a healthy state.  I didn't count them all.  As I develop skills and ideas, I dig up some when I realize that something will come of them.  It's just a hobby that doesn't necessarily have to become a profession, but anything can be.  I'm still just learning, besides, leaves in bonsai are not the main element at all )) Are you currently writing new music, what topics fascinate you, if inspiration comes?

It's a lovely skill to have, I love plants and trees and I seem to like them more as I get older. We are lucky to be where we are , in Cairngorms. The island in the pictures are in the Outer Hebrides. The stones are two to five thousand years old. a place of worship and burial.

I really liked them, especially since yesterday I specifically came to the coast to find stones for decorating bonsai in a similar style.  It is true that ideas fly in the air.

I am sure you are well , notice, I did not say HOPE 😊💪, A quick question I have looked through our 'ruminations'  (herbivores) they are are quite a remarkable collection of thoughts like a diary. I've discussed this with my partner who is a writer and we think they should be published in some form at a suitable time. Would you be willing to collaborate and would you want to use your photos. In English and Ukrainian ?. Food for thought 🤔",

Hi, Dmytro! There is definitely an intriguing note in your thoughts and ideas!. I spend little time on social networks now, however, I would be very interested in taking part in writing notes or a diary, which you mentioned.  I still take pictures, mostly of nature, but now there is little time left for editing photos. I am currently taking small home-based drawing works on the redevelopment of walls in apartments of new buildings (remotely), and also, traditionally, at the end of summer and at the beginning of autumn I help my mother clean up the garden and vegetable garden and also prepare the whole household for winter. Therefore, I practically do not write anything on X-twitter now, since this activity (the Internet) is very addictive, and I cannot give up gardening and household chores.  Soon there will be much more time (I suppose) and then it will be possible to spend it on literary attempts of the pen)). It is good that you emphasized that you do not give in to blind *hope, but actively plan!. I am always glad to see you and will be interested to talk about future reading and about my possible role in the process of its writing!. I apologize for rarely visiting your page, I promise to do it more often when I have a little more free time.

That's good, that you are intrigued. We understand that you will be busy this time of year, in preparation for the winter. It is good that your mother has you to help because there will be a lot to do if there is a garden. (When we say a Country House in the UK, this usually refers to such homes as this :-). https://t.co/UAgUMKUYJP  No apologies required, as we understand about the time social media takes and life has many other requirements.  

However, on looking back our conversations, there is already here a diary of interesting thoughts and exchanges during a terrible war - I only went back to Jan 6th and there is a lot of material. So it will be more a case of editing and proof reading.  It will be good because it is real conversations and should enlighten people who are still fooled by the Imperial myth of mordor.  There is no time set, we will work over the winter on it. Hazel is working on her Uncle's diaries from WWII at the moment. Have a good week in the garden. We have rare late sunshine. Dmytro

Dmytro, hello!  Thank you very much for the letter with a link to the wonderful historic houses and places of fabulous Scotland!  But, I'm not at home yet and I can only see your message on my phone.  Unfortunately, your text along with the embedded link is not copied to me for auto translation, so I only understood a few sentences and will read it in full and reply to you tomorrow when I get to the computer.

That's fine Friend, we still have summer here to the end of the week. Plenty food for thought after the weather change.

Dmytro, hello! I am very sorry for not responding to your offer until now. These days, I'm hardly on social media, because I'm busy with certain events (I'll tell you about it later) and where I am, the Internet signal is often either very weak or non-existent. Therefore, it is difficult for me to decide on plans for the coming days and to give a clear answer about my involvement in terms of deadlines and free time.  Nevertheless, I will always remember you and our interesting conversations and soon I will be able to pay more attention to my friends on this network.  I will be very happy to resume communication!. I wish you pleasant autumn days and lots of creative inspiration!. As a sign of creative support, I'm sending you some photos of the Dnieper reservoir - it's dawn on the shallows with white herons, swans and seagulls.  I'm glad that you don't forget about me and Ukraine!!

And this is a little bit of our steppe for you.  I managed to take a lot of photos when I arrived for the weekend, but so far I have almost no time to edit them and prepare them for public display.  Therefore, I am sending you those that are already ready.

Sorry I have not responded quicker to your communication. Have been busy rehearsing for Nosferatu concert in London . Post flu too. Thanks for the great pics.  You and Ukraine are always on our minds, will respond better next week 😉

Thank you my friend! I am very glad that you are preparing for the concert! I am always happy when my friends and all good people are busy with interesting things, inspired and in demand.  Please don't forget to send me a link to a video or audio recording of the concert, if one will be held.  In short, I participate in the mission of early identification and shooting down of drones that fly to Kyiv, which fly almost every night, so at the moment I have very limited time to communicate - in the afternoon I sleep after night shifts and manage to do mostly the most necessary household and household chores. And there is almost no time left for free, calm communication with friends on the Internet. Thank you for everything - I will root for you and your success!. I wish you interesting rehearsals and a wonderful concert, my friend Dmitry!

This is a local concert, so a good view of the back of my head 🤣 and an electric piano but sound recording not too bad. A favour for local funds. London concert will be more dramatic.  If you get time, which I hope you do but understand (or try to) how difficult it is for you under present conditions. Hope you get a well earned rest soon.  

Oh, thank you! I just managed to watch and listen to your performance (via the link).  And I really liked both the music itself and the chamber format of the event. And what I want to tell you is that the back of your head was an important element of the stage visual decor )). In Kyiv, in peacetime, I much more often attend small, chamber concerts and performances than pompous and crowded ones, since in them, sometimes, there is an opportunity to distract yourself from the people around you and truly feel the live performance. Thank you very much, Dmytro, for this link, you play wonderfully and your music is simply magical! (I apologize again - in the previous message, the damned auto-translator again translated your name into Russian pronunciation, and I did not double-check and correct the error before sending the message

"👍💙💛❤️ thank you Friend.

Personally, my domestic preparations for the winter are already completed, but, as you can see, the damn katsaps do not want to give us the opportunity to prepare in general.  For the past three months, I have been helping to track Russian kamikaze drones (so-called Shaheds), which fly past us in circles towards Kyiv and other cities and villages almost every day and night.  

The last couple of months seemed not very easy for me - for the nervous system, therefore, I had to slow down a bit with my photo creativity.  When I'm free from shifts in the sky, I'm coming to the city to furnish my small apartment a little bit before the final move, to look for a suitable job, at least for the first time.  All the past life has remained in the past and now it is necessary to build it again, almost from scratch.  But, if you look at it from a romantic point of view - starting a new page with a clean slate - it should be inspiring :)).  

Dmytro, it seemed to me, do you hold some slight grudge or irritation against me?  Are these defects of the auto-translator?  If you have time and desire - tell me about the upcoming event in Ivano-Frankivsk, because I am not aware of it.  My schedule in the last couple of months has turned into a groundhog's day - daily shifts of watching the sky and at the remote control, \"hunting\" trips (sometimes successful, sometimes not), sleeping after these shifts and everyday routine tasks.  Therefore, I somewhat fell out of the lively information space.  I wish you good luck and congratulations again!",

Dear friend, as always a friend.  I have no grudge, I wonder what the translator is doing. Our trip is just in discussion with a friend in Ivano Frankivsk who has been researching my family there. We hope if we visit that we can include a concert. We hope to certainly meet with you.  After thinking for years that I had no family left in Ukraine, I have discovered several close relatives and may even have a half brother and half sister! In fact I am told that my father's village was founded by a Cossack with the name Morykit. I am honoured and impressed by your direct work in defense of Ukraine. We still wish to do a gathering of our conversations during this time of invasion by the hoarde. However, we go to London in 10 days for concerts and then visit family in England before we are back home Mid-December.  Then we will have time to do this important and informative work. . . Good luck with your move and we will keep you in our thoughts. D

When you and I met here on the network - after several mistakes in your name and surname, I decided to find out what your surname means and received information from a specialized information resource for deciphering our surnames, that it is an ancient Cossack surname with a legendary past, therefore, it is very good that you have just confirmed that freedom-loving Cossack blood flows in your veins!  It's great that you managed to find your relatives in Ukraine - it's like the process of healing old family wounds!  I sincerely thank you for your kind words of support, and I will be happy to help you put together this account of the stormy events and thoughts that you plan to write.  Of course, if you take me on your team.  You look great in this embroidered dress!  Always friendly to you.

Dear Friend thank you for this fabulous communication. As always you are so thorough. My name and legendary history of Cossack Morykit is intriguing. Glad you like the shirt I will wear it with pride at the Nosferatu event in London and at the Ukrainian cathedral event. Will be busy promoting the song/anthem for Ukraine tomorrow, feel free to share with everyone.  Until tomorrow. Speak soon.

Hi Friend this is the single in support of Ukraine I feature at the end of the piece, an anthem.

Hello, friend Dmitro!. Oho! This hymn is quite a powerful composition!. And I would say that I'm a little confused, because this kind of music is not typical of what you usually play and create.  But, it perfectly suits the moment and the topic, and probably I should better explore all your tastes )). Thank you for sharing the news and this hymn.

We have a bit of a \"madhouse\" here now - because there is sudden snow and shelling and \"Prometheus\" (electricity) sometimes comes and goes and certain other events take place, so I sometimes lose control over reality 🙃

😁 prometheus. We also have snow and a storm on way. It is -9 tonight. 🥶. Hope electric is not off for too long.

In this case, we understood each other)). Well, yes, Prometheus, and what else to call the one who brings people the light and warmth of fire? Only he carries something, and then he loses it somewhere on the way)). Morpheus makes us fall asleep, and he is already sitting next to me, a little irritated from the long wait)). It's good that Danko is always with us and warms our ardent hearts with his burning heart!. In short - almost everyone is already in the assembly, therefore, with such a company we have all kinds of katsaps and Itztlakoliuki (the god of frost, snow, ice, cold, darkness, natural disasters, punishments, obsidian in Aztec mythology. The name is translated as \"Moroz the killer plants. He is sometimes seen as the personification of Tetzkatlipoki.) are not scary!. .

Now everyone must wear hats - because Itztlakoliuki and Tetzkatlipoki will not forgive naughty boys and girls such insolence and will send the god of snorts and coughs upon them!  Did I tell you that we didn't have a very good mushroom season this year?. Can you imagine what I would write to you if this year was abundant in mushrooms? 🙃🛸🌈

I will answer tomorrow Friend, a lot of references to Aztec mythology Quetzalcoatl the snake flying god. The pyramid with the wavy staircase. . Must get some shut eye .keep the bastards away . Rest too💙💛💪🇺🇦🤞",

"My friend, Dmitro, hello!. Just in case - I don't eat the wrong mushrooms, I don't drink alcohol, and I only smoke cigarettes sometimes (I know it's a bad habit). So please don't think anything bad about me :)))) I just wanted to joke yesterday to lighten up a bit and cheer you up a bit :) 

I'd be surprised/offended if you didn't 🤤😆🤗 now we know.😊

Although.  if you don't mind - I can send you some rather rare agaricomycetes that grow at this time of year on our frozen swamps. Just give me a wink if you need it - we'll organize everything ;)) I'm kidding, have a nice day! ))))))

                "reactionKey" : "funny"

Actually, we collect mushrooms in our forests, chanterelle.  But this year was a bad year for them.

It's a shame. . chanterelles taste so good, especially with potatoes baked in small portion pots, with sour cream, or with potatoes fried in a pan with cracklings.  In our area, the mushroom season was also spoiled by an excessively hot summer - our large Kyiv reservoir creates conditions when summer winds carry away all rain clouds and the summer rains themselves fall not far from us, behind us, but not directly on us :)))) This looks like deliberate natural sabotage! :))) . . Now I want to eat!!! :))))",

Good to hear we have just stuffed our faces with holubsy with onions fried in butter. Then a scone with butter jam and whipped cream 🍨. Have something nice 👍 🙂

Has no one told you before that you are a very cruel person, my friend Dmitry!???!! In my control room, I only have a stale, tasteless cracker of unknown origin and one small piece of bread left over from dinner! :)))) I'm kidding :)) You describe your culinary picture very artistically! :))

I can't help it, cracker, enjoy don't forget the cheese 🧀

There is no cheese here!!!! :))))

Oh 💩

Shit - these are Russians - katsaps, and I just don't have any cheese with me :)))

The cheese napper's. 😀

Hello, Dmitry! If this is a correct question - are your preparations for the concert underway? I know very little about the lifestyle of musicians and composers in the UK, so it is sometimes quite difficult for me to imagine what the lifestyle of one of them is like - that is, you personally :) I hope that you find the opportunity and time for concerts, for other interesting activities, traveling and for finding inspiration. Your music is deep and wonderful! But, like everything real in art, it may not be very popular among a very wide audience. This is my assumption, of course. In my creative abilities :)) both as a designer and an amateur photographer, I have never tried to follow the path of a popular genre, since I have always considered it too primitive and somewhat superficial. 

It is good if there is a more or less numerous layer of people in the country who appreciate not only \"bright candies\", but also deeper art.  I hope that Great Britain is one of those countries and that you find many admirers for your beautiful music. Although, on the other hand, true art should also not be limited to serious and lyrical topics, but should also have the ability to generate irony, humor and bring smiles to people's faces. I've been thinking about this a lot lately. 

This is our forest this time of year, from my 7-hour walk last Saturday. 

Very wintry, I am in London did Nosferatu and then a fundraiser concert and auction for Ukraine which managed to raise £4000. Pictures to follow.

This may sound grandiloquent, but you are doing one of the most noble things - playing music to save people's lives.

Arghh thank you so much . .we just had a lovely message of thanks. They have raised several thousands of pounds for medical equipment for saving soldiers Lives.💛💙🇺🇦

Katsaps discover new moisturiser 🧟‍♀️

Usually, katsaps are smeared exclusively with shit - so, probably, few of them will volunteer to change traditional values and start using fuel oil, only the most courageous and advanced ones! ;)

Indeed mother fucker rassia insist on the old traditional values .

I'm just curious about which stop they'll get off at in their attempt to reach the bottom of civilization. More precisely, I predict that the katsaps will be forcibly removed from the train, like a worthless, drunken pickpocket who stole everything he could from passengers and doesn't pay for the fare )) After all, on a conceptual level, they've already reached the times of the mad tyrant Ivan the Terrible, the Kolyaivshchyna and the Oprichnina. Let them like this format of life, and we like the then small size of Muscovy ))

Yes, Ivan the despicable. Their policy then remains in place four hundred years later. Lovely assassination in Moscow , especially as that shit used chemical weapons on Ukrainian heroes. Just desserts is always so satisfying. But there are so many who need to be vaporised. was it you in Moscow? 😉✌️🎉",

A strange and interesting question, but I'm not in Moscow yet ;) Although, I would like to go there to choose a souvenir brick from the ruins of the Kremlin and the Kremlin wall. :)

On Public Figures

Dmitry, in our country all people are equal and no public figure is allowed to betray and lie, neglecting the interests of a country at war. I value authenticity in life, not public hypocrisy, which is already sickening. If you begin to define and compare the value of people in relation to each other - then you must have reached the level of God?. You shouldn't do that.

Friend sounding a little sanctimonious, I see you do not want to sully the cause . Remember the parable of the Good Samaritan.  Ukrainians have all shades of opinions and reasons why they have them . We should not exclude anyone who has fallen by the wayside as long as they absorb their faults and see the the 'light'. That luxury cannot be afforded. We are all full of shit in the end.

I understand this, Dmytro. Public figures should have a sense of responsibility. I do not forgive traitors, especially if they play the fool and refuse to recognize their words and deeds of yesterday. It is too, too expensive for us to have such an unhealthy tolerance for traitors and scoundrels, so I will stop at my opinion.  If you lost your home, family or friends, for example. in the same Crimea - they would weigh differently. Many Ukrainians lost everything, many lost relatives, many lost their lives and health.  I do not forgive the traitors of my country - this is irrevocable.

When someone doesn't have enough intelligence or courage to tell the truth, then you shouldn't betray everyone else, but you should cover your mouth with putty. He who has not personally lost anything will never understand those who lose. This grandmother, who in 2014 rebelled against the occupying katsaps in the Crimea, is much braver than a so-called lying star.

I agree Friend I do not look on traitors well , the answer is in your portrayal of the grandmother, who will hear about this? The loudest and emptiest vessels reverberate most and should be used for what they are worth. This war is also a publicity exercise and every opportunity has to be squeezed for what it is worth.  All is well with you I trust . We'll be in touch over festive period.🎄👼🎉💙💛🇺🇦

Indifference to Evil Is Worse Than Evil Itself”—Why You Shouldn’t Look Away 

It seems to me that your logic is flawed because it allows evil to go unpunished, unnoticed and unjudged, imperceptibly paves the way for even greater evil, and because of this, truth, moral values are erased, and decent and worthy people who stand firm in their principles lose to a bunch of brainless fools. Such logic is an indulgence of meanness.  Therefore, I do NOT agree with you.  I wish you a pleasant evening, my friend. 

The link you sent is not news to me.  There are a lot of Ukrainians who have seen' the light'. They are not evil. Naivety is a human flaw  and we are all flawed . That was the point I was making with the parable of the good Samaritan. The pope has chosen evil knowingly but others are refomed patriots who are genuinely moved by Ukrainian heritage and that is very powerful.  On a lighter note , we wish you all the blessings and your family for the festive period . From those who are slightly imperfect. Peace ✌️ and hell to katsaps💥👹 speak soon without Plato and Socrates.,👼👼🎉🎄😃🥰

Thank you, Dmytro, but, I trust only real affairs, not parasitism on the topic of patriotism. Men have betrayed their homeland and people, lied a lot.  Dmytro, my friend, I'm not a little boy and my life experience is quite rich, so I know what I'm talking about.  Time will show and put everything in its place.  

I understand that you, as a normal person, want to believe in the goodness and decency of people, but our realities are not what you think. You will still see.  I sincerely wish you happy holidays, good mood and inspiration!

WISHING YOU ALL THE BEST FOR 2025 TO YOU AND YOURS🥂❤️✌️

Thank you for your congratulations, Dmytro! In return, I wish you a lot of strength and inspiration to create beautiful music and do good deeds! And, also, I wish you the fulfilment of dreams and more interesting moments in life!

That is a better and more extensive wish list than mine all the bestest to you for 2025 and katsap abject defeat and ruin too.😃💙💛🇺🇦

"Everything is going according to plan, my friend! Let's destroy the 💩 🇷🇺cloaca! More precisely, Muscovites will destroy it themselves, under our watchful patronage ;) 

Can't wait,the anticipation is excruciating.😃💙💛🌠🤣

Hi Friend ,have you seen or heard of Samuel Charap?

Hello, Dmytro! The name seems familiar to me, but I don't remember who he is or what story is connected with him. What did he do?

This shit calls himself a political scientist of Muscovy and Eurasian history. A tired and shit narrative has written 'paper thin books and an article in the Financial times today.  When victory comes he will be swept up with all the other tankie shisters. Hope you are well. We will be in touch soon about our project.😎

Now there are so many talkative, inadequate Russophiles that I've lost count. The main thing is that the katsaps are economically flying into the abyss, and those who help us do it do it silently. Therefore, let these talkers talk whatever they want and thereby distract the katsaps, keeping them in a warm bath of their wet dreams of \"greatness\. Europe will prove that it is able to stand up for itself without the help of the Yankees - I'm sure of it! I was glad to talk to you, my friend!

Enjoying the strikes deep in the empire . Also, received a great book of  'The storm, Modernism in Ukraine.1900-1930's. 

Hello, Dmytro, I just got back from my shift in the morning, now I've read the news and will try to get some sleep. Sorry, I didn't see your posts earlier. 

Jan 20, 2025, 11:52 AM

Hi Friend , Hoping all is good with you ? Are you able to make an assessment of what the orange monster is up to? I see Kellogg has been appointed, potentially a real big piece of ... Floating out of this administration. Chaos is definitely on the cards. Then what ?

Hello, Dmitry. Kellogg. Trump. I don't pay attention to their statements, and I don't pay attention to words in general. Words are empty and are intended to confuse and lead into a fog of uncertainty. Only specific actions and their consequences are worth attention. Some actions are not disclosed to the public now - for obvious reasons. It's still difficult for me to decide unequivocally, because on the one hand it is clear that predatory businessmen and swindlers have come to power in the States, and on the other hand, I understand that in a global hybrid war, weapons must also be hybrid. That is, I try not to take all the news literally, but to look "over the top of my head". The strategy of strategic uncertainty is what reigns everywhere now.

The only thing I understand is that those who will find the side of infantility and weakness and will now procrastinate and try to solve their problems at someone else's expense - will lose and become dependent. Ukraine will not give up and will not lose - it is impossible, because it is impossible )) Evolutionarily, Katsapstan is self-destructing and there are more and more people in the world who are ready to help it with this. Europe must shake off the dust, shake off the mould and become the master of its lands again. Everything that is not done is done for the better, even if it looks inconvenient and frightening. I would call this historical period a "bottleneck of the slice of the day", which not everyone will go through.

Sorry, Dmitrо! The damn auto-translator keeps trying to twist your mime in a Katsap style! Nothing, not long left ))

Indeed Friend , you have made us feel better Katsapastan is ready to fall is all we need to hear. The empire of fools is definitely passing, however what will replace the shit show ; whatever it is must be thoroughly weakened and feeble . Amerika is no longer a world leader. Europe must take the reigns again it is the only way.

That's right, my friend, a window of opportunity for Europe is opening - a gift of fate for all its worthy countries and people, while greedy rotten governments will either reform or remain in the background. And this, in the end, is good and right, because true leadership is measured not by the outdated "authority" of the past, but by the ability to show determination and responsibility at the right moment.

That's a great way to put it Friend, power is in the leadership to go forward not backwards.

Feb 11, 2025, 12:50 AM

Oh shit Friend . . Getting ready to be disappointed.   

As they say - if you don't want to be disappointed - don't be charmed ) 

The fact is that the consciousness of most people is arranged in such a way that it is content with perceiving only one, more pleasant and attractive side of the coin (allegorically) and, for reasons of mental laziness and unwillingness to be disappointed, never looks at the other side. But in every phenomenon there are two or more sides, not just one, right?

That is interesting Friend, we had people in the Ukrainian community in England and in Scotland who would turn on a penny. Most Ukrainians who had left had similar trajectories, Rimini camp or some were captive in the German 'camps' . My great uncle came via sobibor when it was liberated. We didn't find out he was living in Dewsbury, Yorks untill twenty years after he died. There was always suspicion when Ukrainians arrived from different routes. As you can imagine it was difficult for them all round.

Yes, I understand you and in no way do I blame any of the Ukrainian emigrants. The point is not that, the war simply forced many Ukrainians from Ukraine to look differently at our internal disorder, which even before the great war kept Ukraine on the verge of a semi-beggarly country, on the periphery of civilization, and with the beginning of the great war became a threat to our defeat and the cause of the deaths of a large number of people - both military and civilian. Corruption kills, as does tolerance for everything Russian. Therefore, these "purges" began to take place right now, because only now has public opinion changed and become more critical and favorable to investigations into such "popular among the people" characters. You are right that a book needs to be written that tells about the complex fates and intertwining of people's life paths after they encountered the Katsaps and Katsapism in all its ugliness. That is why, especially from now on, it is necessary to critically perceive any public representatives from Ukraine, most of whom may be pro-Russian collaborators who fled the country and tell tales to gullible people in the West.

Indeed we try to address this all the time here. Gullible people abound around the mythology of the ruZZ revolution, it still has attraction like an old flame for students that yet to grow up but instead grow old. That explains why there are deep roots . A lot of weed killer will change that. The ancient history of Ukraine has been absorbed into the katsap's narrative.

Am trying to stay positive and calm        

Everything was known from afar. Now the floor is up to Europe. Examination of integrity and value. Vіno vіknosti vіdchinena, varto no sooner possible again become the rightful ruler of their lands.

Good night dobranich. Recording today (went really well) going away for few days. Will be back in service next week . Keeping spirits up , hoping this all looks different after a rest. 

Feb 14, 2025, 12:01 AM

Good luck to you, my friend! Everything will be fine, because otherwise it doesn't work for us ;) Creative people are more sensitive and sometimes it's hard to hold back emotions. I'm just as angry and filled with despair as you are, but I'll try to get back to normal, because we all need to save our strength, because we'll still need it for victory! Thank you for supporting us and I wish you sweet dreams!

Sweet victory dreams indeed! 

We're back tonight , have just seen the clown's response . I will have to sleep/nightmare on this one . Let's convene tomorrow .what a shit show of lies

Will ask question W T F is going on ? It's a bit late (duggin the undead dostoevsky) No rush Friend , off to shut my eyes. D.

I admit that I was wrong, my friend Dmitry, but I should have been careful. Now we have to overcome not one, but two fascists with their entourage. It's okay, we'll have to deal with it. I'm glad you're with us and that Europe is waking up. I apologize once again.

Well we all get it wrong sometimes, Europe has eyes wide open not shut (Stanley Kubrick ) I wonder if there is an element of desperation, muscovy looks fucked. We'll see .D.

Privit Friend , trying to stay calm are you bearing up? Am watching this sequence of events unfurl . There are noises on and off , demonstrations in Paris and supposed to be one on Trafalgar square London . Articles appearing everywhere now about agent Krasnov, the orange appraiser. Is he playing a game ? However he's up against past masters of lies, KGB. MUST remember to eat Alot to digest. D

Hello, Dmitry, this is how I maintain my calm and steadfastness, because I am confident in our victory over all the disgusting worms, including the traitors.

I totally agree, you are steadfast as the' light of a diamond' . . My father would be turning in his grave if he saw how they squirm . He was patient and steadfast in his support of Ukraine as yourself . I am fending off negative thoughts . We have been here so many times. This time will be different . The drifters will sink into oblivion (and worms)

It seems to me that you are exaggerating about the concerns, because recently you were quite sincerely happy about a photo of a vodka label depicting a thief, bandit, corrupt person.

It was posted by 'm'.  and I didn't even look at the picture on the label . Click bait abounds you shouldn't question my loyalty. So apologies are due 

I have no resentment or anger towards you.

Sorry, Dmytro (not Dmytry) Damned auto-translator. I'm on my way from Kyiv to my forest now. Now a flock of Katsap Shaheds has been coming in more often, several per night - these are probably Katsaps, thus urging us to conclude a treacherous "deal" with an overseas scammer-racketer. These useless neophytes from overseas have studied poorly and their robe prevents them from realizing that Ukrainians are the best importers of revolutions. He and his entourage tried to insult us *both the living and the dead.

I'm sorry you have katsap fury to deal with at this moment , the orange emperor has no clothes. I am aware of the hurt. Moving on, I'm longing for UKRAINE victory as Sure as night follows day.

Everyone who was interested in his reputation knew that this clown had long-standing relations with the Kremlin and that he received money from the Katsap special services when he went bankrupt again, but there was some hope that his current status would free him from these obligations. But, everything turned out even more cruel than we thought. Previously, I considered the plan to establish digital slavery and the attempts of certain perverts to embody the utopia of world reorganization to be mythology, but, these idiots from the valley, it seems, still decided to do all this. It will be crazy in the coming months. but, the light will prevail.

I was On the phone to my 'kids' and the Sunday dinner was on and you sent three texts all at the same time . Will speak anon. After dinner 

Okay, my friend Dmytrо! I'm happy for your family, I wish you a nice dinner! This is for later: Here, outside the city, the temperature is lower than in Kyiv, about 5-6 degrees. That is, we have -10-12 degrees Celsius. At least, that's how it feels.

We get -10 celcius here but thankfully not tonight . Are you asking about a piece of music or one of my pieces? I'll sleep on it Dmytro.

Feb 24 2025

Over the three years of the full-scale war, Russia has attacked the following in Kharkiv: 8,239 residential buildings 132 schools 114 kindergartens 129 universities 89 medical facilities 15 cultural institutions 23 administrative buildings 2,344

Trafalgar Square is lit up by the #UkraineWar rally in tribute to the #Ukraine military who have been fighting since #Russia invaded the country. It's quite a powerful sight.

This is very cool! I feel like Europe is once again gathering into a powerful knightly detachment and putting on forgotten knightly armor! It is very honorable to see such an incredible rally right here in Trafalgar Square! I hope that the symbolism of the origin of this square will be directed not at internal disputes, but at defending our common values and principles! Glory to Great Britain! 

Thank you, dear friend Dmitry! It has gotten a little warmer here and the sun is already noticeably warming us during the day. Today, in the afternoon, I will go on my next hiking trip through lost places, snow-covered wild meadows and forest glades to visit some of my miniature trees-crooks - future bonsai masterpieces, which I periodically trim, shape and care for in one of the places in the forest known to me. I'll take a camera with me - maybe I'll manage to take some interesting shots of the local landscapes - then I'll send them to you. I wish you a successful and pleasant day! Send greetings to your family from Ukraine!

I am so glad this has made you feel better. It's interesting that you use the analogy of the knights . You may be aware of Arthurian legend and the round table and the court in Britain ( Camelot). It has been taken up by many writers. Galvanising European support has been crucial and I think the tide has turned. Gerashchenko on twitter posted a picture of Z with European leaders around a table in Kyiv. He referred to them as the knights. You rightly point out it is not an internal issue but an existential one about liberty and freedom and European values.

It is good that it has warmed up, you are able to chill out in the woods and tend to the next Bonsai Masterpiece. Would love pictures of them and the area. Enjoy the peace and extend our best wishes to you and all your friends and family. DMYTRO , Hazel and family.
