And some still don’t believe it’s a genocide

Japanese tea bag maker Ocean-Teabag has been making waves by creating little parcels of aroma in the shape of marine animals. Luckily for us, their wide range of tea bags are available at online Japanese novelty retailer Village Vanguard, maker of such fine products as Space Tea and cat-shaped kitchen utensils.
Ocean-Teabag’s earliest designs included beautiful dolphin tea bags filled with blue mallow tea leaves. Steeping them turns your otherwise normal pot of water into a tranquil ocean. Proving to be a hit among tea lovers, Ocean-Teabag expanded their repertoire to many other sea creatures including the sea turtle (butterfly pea jasmine tea)…
the distinctive ocean sunfish (Japanese hojicha — roasted green tea)…
the graceful manta ray (tropical mango tea)…
and even a blood-thirsty shark (blended herb tea).
The newest addition to their robust series of marine creatures is a tea bag shaped like an innocuous sea cucumber. This little parcel is filled with jasmine tea, as well as a smidgen of sea cucumber powder to lend some authenticity. Ocean-Teabag warns that some people who have a sensitive tongue may find it tasting a little fishy.
The company also crafted a deep sea series that will satisfy even the most adventurous of tea drinkers out there. A few such examples are the anglerfish (earl grey tea)…
the creepy giant isopod (Eastern Beauty oolong tea)…
the horseshoe crab (white apricot tea)…
…and lastly the king of them all, the enormous giant oarfish. ( Delicious Assam tea of epic proportions! ) Just like its namesake, it measures a whopping 19 centimeters (7.5 inches). Drinking tea becomes an art when half of your tea bag hangs out of your cup.
While the notion of turning your cup of tea into fish-inhabiting waters is not new, these tea bags will hopefully conjure up images of gentle ocean waves in your mind.

I love genuinely innocent “boys will be boys.” Just saw a guy come out of a frat house to poke a pair of jeans they’d left outside - they were frozen solid, and as soon as he confirmed that, like twenty more boys came rushing out of the house going “YOOOOOOOOOO”

🕯 14-year-old weightlifter Alina Peregudova died in blocked Mariupol. The girl had high hopes in sports and was a candidate for the national team of Ukraine.
Last year at the national championship Peregudova won gold medals. "She aspired to reach victories of the highest level in the future. But the "Russian peace" came, which "freed" her from this future," the Mariupol City Council said. Together with Alina, russian soldiers killed her mother.
My new favorite meme
For those who say that russia attacking Ukraine is a “white people war” and that it doesn’t concern people of color
Since the invasion, more than 3,000 cases of rape of Ukrainian women by the Russian occupiers have been recorded, said Dmytro Vernihor, chairman of the Ukrainian medical commission.
I invite you to read this thread where you can find some facts that prove that russian initial plan in Ukraine was genocide and mass murders to force civilians to surrender.
I'm also gonna leave link to this thread, in case you want to look at screenshots and follow links
The photos from the liberated towns and villages around Kyiv are a chilling sight. Civillians shot dead in the back of the head, hands tied behind their backs, killed in a kneeling position. Bodies with marks of torture on them. These are no “civillian casualities” but premeditated mass executions. In Bucha the invaders shot every man 16-60 y.o. they found. In Motyzhyn they took the family of the local mayor to a ravine, shot everyone, and burried them there.
Putin didn`t do that. Someone`s father, husband, boyfriend, son did that.
At the beginning of the full scale war, there were scary news about russians preparing 45k body bags, mobile crematoriums and new massive burial methods.
But they never take their dead soldier’s bodies.
Those body bags were for us. For the civilians.
Those mobile crematoriums were for us.
Those massive burial methods were for us.
Just because we are Ukrainians.
My grandma, who lives in a small town in Donetsk oblast of Ukraine, says she'd go to the war herself if she were twenty years younger, "to fight those russian fascists." She refuses to evacuate, she strongly believes that the Ukrainian army will be able to protect her from the invaders, and if not, she's ready to die on her own land. A couple of days ago, a nearby town was heavily shelled by russian cluster munitions, so I am very afraid for her.
Meanwhile, my other grandma, who lives in the Moscow region of Russia, still doesn't fully believe in what is happening. She says that Putin would never start a war against Ukraine. "What does Russia have to do with this?", she asks and "kindly" invites me to move in with her, in safe Russia. She voted for Putin in 2018.
Most Russians have either relatives or friends (or both) in Ukraine. This is probably one of the most horrifying aspects of this war. They don't hear us, they don't believe us because they watch russian tv or read russian fake news.
I`ve realized that my gorgeous mutuals that are not Ukrainian probably don`t really get my posts about the air alarm sirens. You gotta hear it to really get it. So here is what I have to listen to every day, usually several times a day. I`ve already developed a strong Pavlovian response to the first note of this sweet sound - swearing loudly and wishing Russian people various misfortunes

Ukraine today. This is what russia calls a “denazification and peacekeeping operation”
I got into an argument with a friend of mine about relationships and what's considered cheating.
They told me it's immediately a red flag if their s/o snatches their phone/hides it from them but like? No it's not? I'm not sure about everyone but I know for a fact that there's people out there who struggled to have privacy growing up.
Parents taking phones and going through it, having friends take it and do stupid shit, etc.. Hiding something from your partner and wanting privacy are two very different things!
I've never been given privacy, especially in my early teen years when I had a phone. My parents would constantly snoop around and ground me for dumb reasons just to have an excuse to look through it. Or they'd read my diary without my consent. My door/locks have been taken away multiple times. That's not right and seriously fucked up. Every human being deserves privacy.
Ask your partner to use their phone. Don't just assume it's free to use when no talks of boundaries have been set. There are conversations with friends and family that they don't want others to see because it's private and meant to be between two people. (Another example I've been put through: My father demanded I tell him the "truth" when I panicked and tried grabbing my phone away from him. My reason? A close friend of mine came out and talked to ME about THEIR feelings and thoughts. No one else was supposed to read that. It's not always because the kid is hiding something horrible like wtf lol)
And yes I understand parents can be worried about online friendships and relationships but at a certain point, when they're old enough to handle themselves mentally and emotionally, parents have no right to take action and steal/take away phones or take down doors/locks.
Respect your partner. Respect your kids. It's not that hard like c'mon now lol.
Hi, guys. I've created this tumblr a few years ago to post only my drawings and stuff about my favourite games, only sometimes talking about my real-life issues. And I wanted to let it remain this way, but because of what is happening in my country I can't.
As you may know, I'm from Ukraine. We've been at war with Russia for past 8 years - that's almost a half of my life (I'm currently 19). Russia Federation has annexed Crimea in 2014 and occupied our territories. Yesterday, Putin declared those occupied territories as independent - even though, it's still a part of Ukraine and everyone understands that that's against all freaking laws.
I should've been planning my life, waiting for Fable reboot and thinking how fiercely I'll punch Solas in face in Dragon Age 4. But instead I'm packing backpack in case we'll be forced to run from our home. Past three months, I've been living with thought, that maybe today will be my last day in Kyiv and everything is because of some imperialistic country nearby. Because of some idiot-dictator, who just doesn't wants to admit that USSR is no more.
If anyone wants to help our military forces to defend my country - here are some ways:
1. The charity fund Come Back Alive – https://t.co/DtbpTEabGP
2. Charitable Foundation Voices of Children – https://t.co/Ekdg68dfOE
3. Crowdfunding platform The People’s Project – https://t.co/NVuasgPRc8
4. Ministry of Defence of Ukraine – https://t.co/yoc6X6uzNW
Thank you for your attention, I really appreciate it. Even if you don't care about Ukraine, just think of this - they won't stop on us.
Слава україні.
