Power is back.
Not everywhere in Kyiv, as I read.
Several districts are also having problems with water.

Feeling super lucky

Meanwhile, no power at home.

Several districts in Kyiv
are without electricity
due to an emergency
in the city’s power system.

After midnight in Kyiv,
the war forecast says it might stay calm.

I brought you
a piece of Ukrainian art tonight.

Greetings from Kyiv!

The night was calm.
I had a workout,
and now I’m having a warcoffee;
thinking my eyes need beauty.
Exhibition later.

How are you?

This week’s gratitude to my Patreon supporters –
a live walk in Kyiv.

To make timing easier for everyone (Australia & New Zealand too),
I’m testing two slots:
• Thursday 12 pm Kyiv time
• Saturday 5 pm Kyiv time (latest before closing)

Join when it suits you.
Fingers crossed the war stays silent.

If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.

Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of The United States and if we don’t wake up we may not have a United States.”

Good morning

Chasing waterfalls and autumn views! Who else has stood on the Benson Bridge at Multnomah Falls and felt tiny compared to this natural wonder? Highly recommend visiting the Columbia River Gorge this time of year!

A 15 year old boy with autism went missing earlier this week

He was selling fruit with his family in Springbranch when he disappeared

They filed a missing person’s report & begged the public to help find him

Turns out he was in a Houston ICE detention facility

They kidnapped a disabled child!

In case you didn’t hear about this, I think it’s important. There has been a lot of flooding the past few days all over the USA.

ICE has been deployed to *provoke* civilians, not to protect them. They want to throw tear gas canisters and get people on the streets riled up, all to create footage for Fox News and Newsmax, et al., that will be used as a pretext for imposing martial law to lower voting rates in Democratic cities.

The only violence I’ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!!

Keep sharing these videos; it’s evidence.
