i hate USSR. that's it, that's the post.

(p.s. people who are into "sovietcore" are a red flag for me. ESPECIALLY if they or their parents didn't live in USSR)

I'm currently spending my evening looking for russian folk proverbs i can use as anti-government and pro-resistance slogans & i thought you'd love to hear some of them^^

"близ царя - близ смерти" - "(to be) near the tsar - (to be) near death"

"ваши играют, а наши рыдают" - "your (people) are playing, our (people) are weeping"

"хороши бара - по пятаку пара" - "(two) fair masters - a pig snouts couple"

"хвали рожь в стогу - да барина в гробу" - "praise rye in stacks and masters in graves"

"не бойся суда - бойся судьи" - "don't fear the judgement - fear the judge"

"цвет в поле - человек на воле" - "a blooming meadow - a free man"

"хоть надвое разорваться, а волку не достаться" - "to tear (oneself) apart but to not be caught by a wolf"

"не бойся богатых угроз, а бойся убогих слёз" - "don't fear threats of the rich, but fear tears of the poor"

"наши топоры лежат до поры" - "our axes lay for the time being"

"и в пепле искра бывает" - "sparks are born even in ashes"

"шумит дубровушка к непогодушке" - "the oakery rustles before the storm"

I'd never shame someone for going military (Yes I would)

Feel a need to share some of my art, as that's why I came here in the first place, so:

"Motyla noga"

Butterflies are joyful and colourful. Butterflies are born and living free. Also free to use strong words when they are pissed!

That's a piece of political satire I made in August 2021, about the time when popular Polish anti-government slogan ***** *** became longer: ***** *** ************ * ****** (after adding "konfederację i kukiza") and I tried to fit all that "stars" on one butterfly.

As Polish present government is aiming to be just as homophobic as putin himself - I think it actually fits to be shared on the #Pride Month🌈

(And "motyla noga" = "butterfly's leg" - it's kind of fake bad-word used as a joke in Polish cult movie "Miś")

I am not an alex jones fan, at all, by any means, but this is like the nukes on japan. This is a show of force to scare and deter ANYONE from ANYTHING anti government (with japan, it was to scare russia). My argument is always the same: does the punishment fit the crime? Did he do a BILLION dollars worth of harm? Not by any means. Sure, he did do some harm, he does owe people, but a BILLION?! No. That's to scare anyone with any real influence not to be anti government. Cuz that's what he was first off.

“We want to thank the huge and warm audience who attended the Kirlian Camera show at the Stella Nomine Festival 2022, not many hours ago. In particular, we sincerely thank Adina Trowitzsch-Wolf who translated into German the appeal regarding Julian Assange that Elena Alice communicated at the end of the concert, underlined by an explanatory banner shown by the rest of the band.

I wonder what the world would be like if everyone grew their own food…

I’ve always been perplexed over the food industry. We mass produce and contribute to mass waste, upwards of 29% of greenhouse gases are caused by agriculture and 1/3 of all food is either lost or wasted. This remains one of the largest contributors to global warming which is directly linked to deadly heatwaves and devastating rise in sea levels resulting in catastrophic flooding, tsunamis and human fatality.

When I was a teenager I discovered I was getting sick from eating meat - not from the animal itself but the antibiotics it was being fed to combat infectious diseases and expedite growth rate and efficiency. I started researching organizations like peta who’s demonstrations were quite aggressive and perhaps even off- putting. I’ll never forget the images I saw in some of their videos where chickens were being fed so many antibiotics and caged so close together that some didn’t even grow beaks before slaughter, Farmers kicking cattle down the conveyer belt, sadistically getting off on harming animals, among other horrors. I find global warming articles usually lead with fear mongering of food scarcity but don’t place enough emphasis on food waste. We waste about 35 million metric tonnes of food each year in Canada alone. Organics wasted in a landfill produce methane gas which is 25 times more damaging to the environment than carbon monoxide and the rest of the food waste equates to 56.6 million tonnes of carbon monoxide equivalent emissions. It’s also thought that approximately 11 million tonnes of this food could be rescued and distributed amongst vulnerable communities … but is it?

I’ve pondered the concept of “The Business of Food “ and it’s never made much sense to me. In my late teens I would go visit a friend who had a job working for Tim Hortons - one of Canadas leading coffee chains- at the end of her shift we would sneak out the donuts in a plastic bag that she was ordered to destroy. It was made very clear to her that the bag was to be thrown in the dumpster to not attract the homeless and we defied them and left it beside the dumpster. It’s something I still do to this day - if it’s edible or recyclable then I leave it beside and at least give the person dignity should they be hungry or willing to take my bottles back for the deposit. It’s the very least I can do. Globally we waste 930 million tonnes which becomes 3.3 billion tonnes of emissions. food waste contributors are primarily in the household at 61% followed by 26 % food service and 13% retail. The average Canadian wastes upwards of two grand a year on groceries they just throw out.

On top of that we practically give away garbage food while overcharging for organic food. This means if you live in poverty you’re more or less forced to eat “ foods” which are highly processed and contain saturated and trans fats, refined sugars and high levels of sodium.

Medically it’s recommended that a women has no more than 6 teaspoons or 100 calories of sugar per day and 1500 milligrams of sodium to sustain optimal heart health. The average American consumes around 3600 milligrams of sodium and 22 teaspoons of daily sugar. Heart disease remains one of the leading causes of death in North America to this day.

On average the cost of organic foods is anywhere from a 20-80% increase due to shorter self life but what is the cost to grow it yourself I wonder?

What’s the markup for when a large portion of those foods aren’t even technically “organic”

Food labels are not regulated properly in North America. It’s said that somewhere around 73% of our generation prefers to shop organic and big corp calls it a “ lifestyle choice”

Should we pay more to have non genetically modified food free of all pesticides? Gmo means that a food sources DNA has been altered to create a desired effect typically in appearance. While this science can bring added nutrients to your beloved food - it also creates issues with allergens and drives our antibiotic resistance rates up higher.

This means that eventually things like pneumonia , strep throat and infections associated with minor burns will become untreatable.

Let’s take away the word “ choice” from our lifestyles and look at foods that are medically necessary such as gluten free foods for those with celiacs - an autoimmune disease. The cost of that food is about 242% higher when compared to the cost of regular food. Living on a limited income means accepting that you’ll be sick because you can’t afford not to be. 242% is the lowest average - it can be anywhere from 212-1000% increase. It means on average that a regular household could spend around 5k while someone with celiac will pay 12k. How does that make sense?

As I was writing this my 3 year old niece woke up from her nap and said she was hungry. I grabbed no sugar added chocolate pudding and sat down to join her. I haven’t been able to eat solids in three days with norovirus. She took a bite and said ew - it has no flavour …. This is how easily we get hooked on garbage even at three. It’s marketed to us constantly despite the fact that it causes obesity …. Which causes: stroke, osteoarthritis, type 2 diabetes , coronary heart disease, sleep apnea, gallbladder disease, high blood pressure, inflammation, fatty liver disease, and various cancers . It would be like watching adverts for people selling crack to children except it’s big corporations like Coca Cola and nestle selling us food crack.

Make it make sense

That probably sounds crazy to say … speaking of crazy , processed foods and refined sugars are directly linked to depression and even cellular aging- one can of soda a day will shave about 5 years off your life expectancy. It will also increase your chances of kidney disease, negatively affect your dental health, increase risk of developing gout and accelerate cognitive decline.

We are literally dying to eat.

I feel hungry for change

They say you are what you eat

… I guess we’re all sick

Birds would be really cool if they weren't spy equipment for the government.

The Ant And The Dove Story

On one of the hot days, an ant walked near the river bank. The poor ant lost his balance and fell into the water. "Ah, help me! Help me!” the ant screamed. She was screaming for help. Because the current of the river was too strong, she was swept away. “Someone please help me,” she screamed. The dove was watching all this from a nearby tree. life in the water. The dove felt very sad for the little ant. The ant was constantly calling for help. "Oh no, the little ant is in trouble," thought the dove. The dove decided to help the ant. He said to the ant, "Don't worry, my friend! I will save you!" The dove quickly tore off the leaf and threw it into the water next to the resisting ant. The ant went to the leaf and climbed up there. And the ant made it safely to the shore. The grateful ant said, "I will always be grateful to you for saving my life!" A few weeks later, the ant saw a bad hunter with a gun. The hunter was aiming at a pigeon sitting on a tree. Guessing what he was going to do, the ant quickly bit him on the heel. "Ouch! You pathetic ant! What have you done?" shouted the hunter. The ant happily left, as in return she was able to help the dove.
