It’s a record player and the handwritten score of Autumn Fantasy (1914) by Borys Lyatoshynsky (1894–1968), a prominent Ukrainian composer.

Seen today at the “Cultural Suitcase” exhibition at Kyiv railway station.

It’s Kyiv.
A path I often take to a café for warcoffee.

A modern, beautiful city with a rich history that russia wants to take and will never succeed.

Greetings from Kyiv.

I came to the railway station to visit an exhibition — and instead saw this:
a concert by the State Emergency Service of Ukraine.

Wow. I want you to hear this.

I don’t know if you have Instagram.

From time to time (rarely) I post some photos and videos there.

Maybe one day it will become a small archive of my visual work. We will see.

Today I added a few from Kyiv Pechersk Lavra

I may tell you something strange.
I feel very calm these days,
while the world seems to be going mad.

We’ve seen a lot in Ukraine over the past four years:
attacks, sleepless nights, no electricity, water or heating…

Ukraine is ready for anything. And I believe our experience can help others.

Majority of media undermining our PM as our country teeters on the edge of war. They shout ‘dither’ and ‘underprepared’ but it was the Party that they supported without question for 14 years that lead us to where we are.

They disgust me.

Of course, this moment is possible thanks to our defenders who give us this chance. Happy birthday David. Peace and love ❤️

🎂🎁Today my son David turns 6 years old. He has seen things no child should ever have to see. Im very happy today. The weather is good, there are no air raid sirens for now, and I’m here with him. He has both of his parents with him, and for that we are lucky. 1/2

🌍 Ukraine's friends don't always come from the biggest countries.

We drove together on a previous #NAFO convoy.
Now he's funding his 2nd truck with @69thsb.bsky.social for the 30th Marine Corps.

Help him finish it 👇

At least it’s in the news and with enough push something should be done?

MPs warn “unsustainable” SEND transport system fails families with disabled young people - Special Needs Jungle MPs blast the DfE over a lack of plans for fixing “unsustainable” SEND transport costs that fail families with disabled young people

This post from @catrionamoore.bsky.social feels personal for me as I’m one of the many families who have had home to school transport removed from their disabled children, simply because they turned 16.

A wondrous scene to behold.

I get a lot of that lately. It feels like the default position.
I will watch it as soon as I get a break from tooth surgery and can concentrate as I should.
Feeling sick just thinking about it.

I want to watch this when I’m brave enough.

Calm , decent and strong.

Thank you for revealing the good in a chaotic world.
Otherwise I’d dread the morning news.

Here’s another diplomatic, statesmanlike PM that isn’t the US President’s poodle…

Thought this was worth a share. Good start to the mornIng to see something positive!!

Brexit cut Britain off from its biggest market, and the damage is baked into the economy. Businesses face barriers that did not exist before, and investment has taken a hit. The UK should enter the Single Market and restore frictionless trade.

Europe is the largest single market in the world, and it was an act of self-sabotage to leave the EU. Joining the single market would facilitate easier trade between the UK and the EU, and would remove the red tape that many British businesses are struggling with now.

Yaroslava just posted a video of her visit to Kitchen & Garden. What a wonderful place. Please follow her and support her through Pateron if you’re able. A strong voice for Kyiv, its beauty and culture.

That’s a shame Yaroslava.
I just want to let you know that I may have to miss the walk tomorrow as I have some dental work to be done. It may cure many of my problems.
This is definitely not because I’d prefer root canal treatment to seeing you!
Have a good time. I’ll be thinking of you.

Greetings from Cambridge Yaroslava.
What a lovely place to sit in the sun for your war coffee.
It appears everyone has been very productive. It all looks very inviting.
Yes, life should be about creativity and not wars.
Soon.

At last! Phew. A MAGA free destination, that has to be a tourist attraction.

Sign the Petition Help End Shark Killing Tournaments in Florida!!!

I thought “Shark Rodeos” were a thing of the past, but I guess not. With world shark populations plummeting, I’d say it’s past time we end them.

🐗 A wild boar named Vasko has become a loyal companion to Ukrainian soldiers — and he especially loves getting scratched.

Rachel Reeves is right, Britain’s economic future depends on deeper cooperation with our European partners.

If we are serious about breaking down trade barriers and restoring growth, Single Market access has to be on the table.

Outside the EU, Britain’s car industry is struggling British car production has fallen to its lowest level since 1956, with Brexit uncertainty, high costs and Chinese competition contributing to the industry's decline.

The UK is a global trading hub for car manufacturing - working with Europe is essential to protect the industry.
