I can’t kill the connection with my parents though
@Frenchy4064 No, he’s quite conscious of it.
They both deny Russia’s wrongdoing in Ukraine.
It’s crazy, it’s infuriating, but what can you do.
@see_the_sus That’s the funny part, they moved to Greece (because of mom’s ethnic roots), but the Soviet virus sits deep inside their heads. It’s incurable.
@TiarePalau thank you 🤗

Jan 1 1893 was the official birth date of Internet, when computers first gained the ability to communicate under the same protocol called TCP/IP.
We should scrap all meaningless old Gregorian and whatnot calendars and make this year 40 AI (Ante Internet)

Ambassador Bridget A. Brink:
“ Beyond belief. Russia coldly and cowardly attacked Ukraine in the early hours of the new year. But Putin still does not seem to understand that Ukrainians are made of iron. America is absolutely confident Ukraine will prevail in 2023. Slava Ukraini!”
