Just want to say, I don't think there's a correct, linear way to adapt to and cope with what's going on in the world.

You may find that you move between feeling almost normal and feeling very NOT normal.

You may wonder how there can be such suffering in the world and you feel OK for a little bit. And then devastated.

This movement can feel disorienting. There's no template for dealing. Be patient with yourself and others. Give extra grace whenever possible.

Take care of you.

The Russian Air Force Just Had A Terrible Day Over Ukraine

https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/44602/the-russian-air-force-just-had-a-terrible-day-over-ukraine

Let me get this straight.
1. NATO doesn't want to enforce No fly zone over Ukraine because it would be escalation
2. Kremlin wants demilitarization of Ukraine
3. Putin declarers sanctions against Russia are declaration of war

If war has already been declared, why is a no fly zone being enforced?

If you were wondering about whether the Russians really influence our social media, compare the list of top Facebook posts from a few weeks ago to this week, when Russia couldn't access its foreign cash reserves. Rather telling.

On the left, Feb 12th, long before the war began and Russia killed FB & Twit,.... on the right, yesterday, with all the Russian bots and gremlins gone

Disarming Disinformation: Our Shared Responsibility

Contrary to the Kremlin’s false claims, the people of Ukraine are demonstrating great strength, determination, and courage in response to Putin’s ruthless, unprovoked, and premeditated war. We have seen Ukraine’s soldiers demonstrate commitment and bravery shooting down Russia’s aircraft, firing at tanks, and holding many of their positions while under heavy attack. ​
