I’m in a bookstore now. This shelf holds books from publishers affected by the russian attack on August 1, when eight million books were destroyed. The bookstore is asking people to buy their books. I wanted to remember this shelf.

Around eight million books were destroyed in Kharkiv yesterday. Many Ukrainians are responding by buying books from the affected publishers and from KnyhoLand, the bookstore chain that also used the warehouse. I bought these today.

More than 100,000 Ukrainian soldiers have gone AWOL over the war, driven largely by exhaustion Ukraine's answer is a voluntary return program, now expanded to let returning soldiers choose from over 70 units, their direction, position, and commander euromaidanpress.com/2026/08/01/m...

From @onelife_livedwell on IG: There is a particular kind of exhaustion that comes from living in the space between knowing something has changed in your body and waiting for the world around you to find language for it. #undiagnosed #undiagnosedillness #invisibleillness #spoonie #chronicillness

So you've got a fishpond, & you love eels. Should you put eels in your fishpond? The Fleta, a 13th C. book on English common law, says NO. They'll eat the other fish, then eat each other. Then the remaining ones will just leave overland for a better home. Don't do it, friends. 🗃️🧪
