Every day I realize that adult life is a state in which children do not belong. Today is my close friend and co-author Alexander Sergeevich Kontorovich's birthday, but I almost forgot because of my busy schedule. It shouldn't be like this. Happy birthday, my beloved co-author and friend. May God always keep you and love you, protecting you from enemies and troubles. Well, the Bird will always be there. Happy birthday, writer, warrior and just a good person. Greetings from my cat. Well, the dog, as usual, did not say hello. Happy birthday! 🙂

While many are talking about the young culture of Donbass, unions and flash mobs are being created, my co-author and I are not only talking, but also helping young artists in some way. The second illustrator from Lugansk, Sofya Poruchikovo, defended her diploma by creating a book based on our story "Teachers and Students". I don't think publishers are interested in this, but we are glad that in this way we help young talents ☺️

Республиканская партия в Сенате выпустила новое мощное видео о том, как Джо Байден создал крупнейшую в истории США сеть по торговле детьми.
Более 85 000 человек.
Именно столько детей пропало без вести при Джо Байдене.
Пусть это будут не просто слова!
Пусть это будут реальные превентивные меры и действия, направленные на спасение детей и привлечение виновных к ответственности!

WarAmericas, Europe, Russia, Ukraine, United StatesNewswireRussia-Ukraine War
I have said many times that the war for me began on June 2, 2014, with the bombing of the Lugansk Regional State Administration by Ukrainian aircraft. And now comes another anniversary, already the ninth.
Strangely enough, that day is one of the few that I remember, albeit in fragments. Maybe because it was the first time we had so much noise, or maybe because I was worried about my grandmother, who was in the area of the shelling that day. I still don’t like it when someone doesn’t return my calls or messages for a long time, even though I know there can be plenty of harmless reasons for that. But it’s still scary. Really scary.
A heap of some scattered, jumbled memories that can not be gathered into a single chain… I remember having to go to the library to get a book for my brother from the summer reading list, but I was too lazy to go, so I told my mom that I was too tired. A little white lie. So we didn’t go. It’s quite possible that’s why we didn’t end up on the playground with my mom a little later, during the shelling in the park near the Regional State Administration building.
A couple of days later we went to the polyclinic, and mom talked to the pediatrician, including on this topic. At that time no one could believe that it was an air strike by Ukraine. Later, of course, all doubts dissipated, but back then many still had hope. Like the saleswoman at the newspaper kiosk. Her most vivid recollection of that day:
We’re looking up into the sky, and we don’t understand how this is possible, or where to fly, or where to run. We just stand there and look at the sky. And we see where this shell will land. So it hits us. We don’t have time to hide anyway.
What has changed since that day? A lot. And nothing. All of us have changed, the situation in Donbass has changed. But what has remained the same is the West’s approval of the fascist regime in Kiev. I think that was the main reason for the start of the Special Military Operation. The loss of hope for a peaceful solution and the provocation of an open war by the West. Did the Ukrainian people need this? No, of course not. Neither did we. Who needs war? But there is no other way. Children grow up when they begin to understand this simple truth.
What can we do? Try to understand cause and effect, try to learn a lesson. Even if too little time has passed for the present to be covered by the dust of time and become the past to which one can try to look dispassionately, there is no other way. The sooner the world realizes its mistakes, the better its chances for life. And the non-repetition of another June 2. Such mistakes, turning into crimes against humanity, bring too much pain to people.
