I read a news item about how the recent surge of drone aggression is stressing Ukrainians and affecting moral. It wasn't clear whether that was a propaganda piece meant to imply Ukraine is weakening, but I have noticed far fewer Zelenskyy updates in the past couple of months, and the feeling I get from even the pro-Ukrainian media that the invasion is wearing Ukraine down.

I just want Ukrainians to know that you're not forgotten. Even if you feel as if American attention has shifted to other concerns (we have our own crises and fascists now to occupy us), many of us are still staunchly supportive of the Ukrainian cause, and think about you, and donate to causes which we hope help.

Russia seems like a vast, unending well of cannon fodder. Your allies are fickle, at best. You just want to go back to normal lives, regular prosperity; you want your children back. I can't have any idea what you're going through is really like. For what it's worth, know that you have people around the world who sympathize and grieve with you, who are rooting for you, and most of all, who admire what you've achieved: David resisting a brutish and imperialistic Goliath for years, showing the world just how much how a strong and innovative people can accomplish.

I look forward to seeing what a peaceful, prosperous Ukraine makes of itself after the invaders have been defeated and pushed out. This invasion started with prognostications that Ukraine wouldn't last weeks; three years later, and you continue to defy the invaders. I do not doubt that you can persevere; I just want you to know that, despite the media attention on other struggles, you're not forgotten: we stand with Ukraine.

Slava Ukraini. Heroiam slava.

Thank you for your kind support! 🙏

It is indeed difficult, and we are tired.

However, I keep in mind that, compared to previous Moscovian genocides in Ukraine, this one is less bloody. We also have more international recognition and support than during any previous Moscovian invasion. Since our ancestors survived much more brutal attacks, we are bound to overcome this latest wave of Moscovian imperial onslaught. We know too well what can happen otherwise.

Glory to the worldwide people of goodwill 🙏

I'm with you. I can't go a day without a status update on the situation in Ukraine. With a close eye on what Putin and Trump are doing, not saying, actually doing.

In the same day Trump will say he's considering more sanctions on Russia, while simultaneously he's actually loosening other restrictions on Russia in other ways. We gotta keep his feet to the fire on this, he's more than happy to allow support for Ukraine to erode over time

It can be helpful to pay attention to what those in their orbits are saying (ex. Lukashenko, Orban), sometimes they'll let something important slip
