When words fall short, symbols speak.

Like the patterns Ukrainians paint on Pysanky, their traditional Easter eggs.

They embody the resilience and hope of a nation, unbroken by the brutal Russian aggression.

The European Union stands by the Ukrainians’ side, committed to supporting them through this war and along their European path.

For a prosperous, peaceful future for all Europeans.

Awesome program in Ventura County!! If your gas water heater has issues and needs to be replaced, this group will lend you a heater until you can install a heat pump water heater (!!!). Heat pump water heaters are much more efficient and save money, and use electricity instead of gas. #waterheater #repair #VenturaCounty

One of my trans friends said a while ago that attacks on trans people have the effect of making them question their own inherent worth as a person, like, "maybe I *am* evil, maybe I *should* disappear". That's what I think of when I think of this song, especially the line "Why can't we give ourselves one more chance?"

And "Turned away from it all like a blind man / Sat on a fence, but it don't work"...yeah.
