Ukrainian mother scolds Russian soldiers as if they were little boys.

Fearless. They are impressive in the face of the enemy.
The more I see, the more iam in awe of Ukraine and their people. Its heartbreaking to witness what's unfolding before us.
 
Putin dropped a bollock on logistics & intelligence.

I can’t conceive of what’s happening out there. A few days ago these people were living their lives. Going about their business. Some of them probably even tapping away on their iPads and laptops talking shit on their favourite football team’s Internet forum. And now this.

Much like we are now. It cant happen to us, can it?
 
I have several Ukrainian friends here and some have already left families and safe homes here to travel back to fight. Very emotional saying goodbye as sadly they might not return. They are well aware of this but went anyway. I have lived here for many years and whilst not being Polish,this is my home and I hope I'd have the strength to do the same.

We were talking about exactly this in the canteen on Friday.

Their world turned upside down overnight.

You've got the general public taking up arms, we struggle to convince some to wear face coverings in this country.

I sincerely hope that your friends will come back home safe and well, and this nightmare in Ukraine ends soon.I dont know what else to say.

A good read here which debunks the still held nonsense that Putin is somehow of “the left” and the situation in Ukraine now is somehow of “leftist” making. Putin is a fascist, a nationalist and like all such people draws support from the extremes of both left and right. Most normal people just think he’s a cunt.

Young and old putting themselves in the front line, taking up arms with no military training...

God bless Ukraine

Heroes, all of them.

Responsible patriots, not fervid nationalists.
 
Germans are apparently allowing targeted SWIFT payments action and have lifted ban on third party transfer of German made weapons.

Important changes.
 
Ukrainians are my heroes.

The world has too many cunts like Putin, Trump, Johnson, that somehow get to lead. Second law of thermodynamics, I think all these cunts are the result.
 
Am I the only straight guy developing a crush on President Zelensky? What a leader.
