Re: Ukraine and Russia.

Hey Everyone,

It seems like we are now moving away from discussing Ukraine and are discussing feminism. If someone wants to create a thread about feminism they can but at this time we should try and get back onto the topic.

Has anyone seen any updates about the Ukraine War? I have had to step away do to a limited amount of spoons. The last I heard was that Biden made a speech and visited Poland

Re: Ukraine and Russia.

I just typed into Google "war in Ukraine" and you know how Google sometimes shows statistics with certain search queries such as with the pandemic.

Anyways, here is the statistics:
Deaths: at least 23,000.
Non-fatal injuries: 1,900+.
Displaced: at least ten million.
Building destroyed: 1,700+
Property damage: $565 billion USD.

I have been following through timeline feed this one particular individual. She was displaced as a young child due to the Chernobyl accident in the late 1980s, and the local family that took her in is a very well-known individual in my area. She has been sharing updates with the family that let her stay with them 30+ years ago, and it's very jarring to see these images appear on my timeline and to read her short messages.
