News out of Ukraine is grim.
Apr. 5th, 2022 03:12 pmAnd I have intense sympathy for anybody there.
This sympathy is only slightly marred by the dichotomy of the worldwide response to Ukrainian refugees and, say, Afghan refugees.
Though that does still piss me off. We had no call to just cut and run and ditch the people in Afghanistan who helped us - but we did! And we had no call to strand asylum seekers at the border between the US and Mexico - but we're still doing it!
I just... it just upsets me.
