Moreso, the hypocrisy that triggers me the most is that for russia to murder Ukrainians on a daily basis is considered ok, a new norm. But for Ukraine to get the capacity to defend itself and strike back is feared as a route to "escalation". This is BATSHIT CRAZY.

Good morning! 🌞🌺 from a Ukrainian in Illinois… when I wake up like this early, I grab my phone from the dresser and check the news about Ukraine β€˜cas I have family there. Then, hearing g’mornings from so many people is a good reason to feel great not sleeping at 6am on a Sunday morningπŸ˜‡πŸ˜‰

Text with a quote from Duke Ellington saying β€œOh man I got a million dreams, that’s all I do is dream” and an interviewer responding β€œI thought you played piano” to which Duke says, β€œNo, this is not piano. This is dreaming.” Quote featured in a Jon Batiste track.

I think about this quote from Duke Ellington at least once a day, and it appears in the opening pages of my dissertation. I love it because it’s so easy to forget the love for science in between all the pipetting, but at the end of the day, science, art, musicβ€”it’s all dreaming. πŸ§ͺ

This resonates so much with me. This is how many of us feel. I wish more non-Ukrainians could understand it

This reminds me of Ukraine- my home country … lots of sunflower fields , but all far away now

The most important thing in writing is to finish. A finished thing can be fixed. A finished thing can be published. A finished thing can be made into a movie.

An unfinished thing is just a dream. And dreams fade if you don't hold on tight enough.

So finish the thing.
